I'll have a mod ready soon.

[quote who="econundrum1" reply="13" id="3556170"] How about allowing it to use Animated Gifs as a stop gap? [/quote] That's what I asked in the dev stream. Hopefully we hear something soon on an alternate format.
I would pay for a dlc animated pack as well. Wish they would allow bink 1 as well. Wouldn't need the transparency if we make the whole animation as the foreground, right?
Wonder, if i can get a Bink license, would I be able to charge people to convert their video to bink for use with the game? Would that be a violation of any kind?

[quote who="Edladner" reply="43" id="3555177"] You could take huge hulls off the tech tree so they can't be built. Then design some planet projects that grant you one huge hull ship. [/quote] That's a good idea. I was thinking more like for each colony you have, you can build 1 capital ship. Something similar to Battlestar Galactica where each colony has 1 ship named after it. Since I've been thinking about approaching this idea u
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="25" id="3554996"] Anyways, Question. Why was political parties and election taken out? Not a critique but curious as to how that decision came about and why? We want to do a lot mroe with political parties in the future including a whole cabinet section for the game. [/quote] Thanks for taking the time to reply. And that sounds awesome, I'm
It's so limiting for modders to make video background and foreground because of the use of Bink 2. Bink 1 would have been fine, but because of the transparency, there wasn't a choice and instead they had to use bink 2. And bink 2 is a licensed so that would cost money. I wonder, how much is bink 2 to license. I can see why foreground would need transparency, but does the background need it? Wonder if bink 1 can be used for background and just a
Hi. If possible, can we have more animated backgrounds that are a bit diverse. Also, if possible, some new tech advisers. Oh and leaders forground, maybe some that are opposite gender of what is currently standard. All this is just a request if time permits. Thanks,
Everything works now, steam somehow thought the game wasn't installed after the patch. Game was installed and all the files and directories were there. Had to delete folder manually and then reinstall the game again. Works fine now.
Been a fan of Stardock products for a long time. And I'm am very excited that Star Control was acquired by Stardock, it is by far my most favorite game of all time. I still play it once in a while now that SC2 is free and I still have SC3, although game runs too fast on my machine. Anyways, what lead to the acquisition of Star Control series and any thoughts on getting the Starflight series?
Frogboy, I've been playing Galciv series since it first came out, my account can attribute to that and I have been a big Stardock supporter since I've heard of your company in 2003. Would also like to say that my favorite game of all time is the Star Control series since I played the first one on the Genesis and now that it is in Stardock's possession, it is very exciting. Now if you can get the rights to Starflight, man that would be awesome. </p
[quote who="econundrum1" reply="41" id="3554480"] So achillus make it so as they say see if you can make that mod. If you can't do that you can always increase the cost of huge hulls so in effect they are too expensive to afford many. I don't really like the idea of this limitation, but if you do the I great thing about this game is you can try and mod it. [/quote] Yep, looking into getting it created as a mod. Hope I
Couldn't you edit the base files in the game directory itself to create an .xml race without having mod enabled? Not sure why you would want that since it can screw up the game without having a way to reverse it. I mean outside of just uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
Thank you, I'll check them out. thanks for the help.
Oh. How can I create one without using the ingame create option? Is there a base file I can copy from?
How do I edit my custom created faction? I just created a faction and would like to mess around with the .xml file to make some changes. Where can I find it, I looked in the mygame\galciv3 folder where I placed the custom race forground and emblem art, but can't seem to find the .xml file for the race I just created. Any help would be great. Thanks,
Would be nice if dev did it, but I know realistically, its a slim chance. As a mod, I guess limits can be put on either hull size or weapons or both. Don't want to limit colony ships or non-combat ships though. Maybe have it where every colony automatically produce a specific resource that can be used to build 1 capital ship. So bigger empires have more capital ships, but the cost of building that capital ships would be very high and would lower morale during the
Hi. I'm looking to do a project and looking to commission (paid) someone with modding experience for this game. Must know how to mod using .xml and have experience in modding Galciv 3. Please send me a private message if you're interested.

The game keeps crashing since the Patch. It would start up the loading screen then crash me back to Windows. Prior to the patch, game works fine. No changes were made on my PC. No new software installed and no setting were changed. Only difference between when it was working and now is the patch.
