It's not my server. If you want to do stuff like that, fine. But anybody with a modicum of respect wouldn't have gone and posted it in this forum. Given your infantile attitude, you probably don't even get it.

Well i'm sorry but I thought I saw a post about someone having problems downloading the mod.
Now I can't find it so I may have been mistaken. It was not my intention to offend anyone.

OK, whatever.
Here's a link to the other thread  Link , since it's not stickied. To be honest, I don't know how this got stickied in the first place.
I posted the full details in that thread, but to summarize what this new version has:
---------------
1.0 What's New?
---------------
1) 41 Ships! Various star destroyers, tie fighters, x-wings, a-wings, y-wings, millennium falcon-like ships, squadrons, etc. The ship's "nationality" color is pretty easy to see, for those gamers out there who may have some minor blindness issues. The "bad" races have Empire-style ships, while the "good" ones have Rebel-style. Also should be color-blind friendly.
2) Better Replacement for the Torians - Got rid of the silent fish people and added some lovably hairy Wookies! Includes never before seen recent footage of Chewbacca on his home world.
3) Other leader improvements - Luke has more to say, a different yoda movie, etc.
4) All sound effects have been replaced. Beeps, weapons fire, menu stuff are now all Star Warsy.
5) Lots of graphical replacements - With the destruction of Bespin, a habitually drunk Lando was thrilled when you gave him the job as your planetary governor. An unemployed but nonetheless curiously shiny 3P0 has also convinced you to hire his pansy ass as your galactic secretary. Several other similar modifications are also included.
6) Planet list replaced with one that contains every "known" Star Wars planet that a very dedicated fanboy had on his web site. Certain vanity planets still exist though
6) Easy-to-use installer/uninstaller that backs up all the files it replaces.
7) Silent MP3 with corresponding playlist, so you can effectively turn off music, but still hear the negotiation soundtrack when speaking to the AIs.
By the way, this mod should be completely metaverse friendly. Unless I inadvertently broke something, nothing in these files should affect the game play balance.

I want to thank you for all your work.

I think this Star Wars Mod is great. I don't think I'll ever play the game in it's original form again. I am new to GalCiv.s but this mod makes it so the game has a bit more realism and a lot more depth with the story we all know.
I do have a question though and this might pertain to either versions of the game but I only know how to put it in terms of the Star Wars version. I can see the differences in advantage for defensive verses offensive units but it seems that there is no advantage but disadvantage of all the strike groups (or frigates) over just having several X-wing/Tie fighter units stacked up in a fleet in price or stats. Also, I've acquired the battleship technology but I didn't see that it added any ships to build (?). If you could help me understand the reasoning I would appreciate it. Thanx -Nathan

Ok, I see one big difference is the range that some can go to.

Sorry to trouble you guys but I can't seem to download it, I am using Flashget. Can someone help me?
| |
|

|
|
The sound is messed up, can someone help?
| |
|
|
|
From time to time the sound will just turn to a loud scratching noise for a really long time.
| |
|
|
|
I think Galciv still has intermittant sound problems.
I had sound problems as well and I am not running any mods. Does not last long and is not common so it does not annoy me much.

I downloaded the files, put each file into their respective folders in my installed GalCiv files but I am not seeing any Starwars stuff. No music (just the standard fare) no cutscenes etc. I admit, I have only meet the Yor so far. What am I missing. So far its like a regular GalCiv game. (not that that's a bad thing...)

Thanks Mad. I downloaded the files weeks ago and just got around to (attempting) to put them into the right folders per the directions on the included readme. I didnt know you had updated downloads that includes an installer. I will go and download the latest.
Cheers.
Oh, Bobo says thanks too.

and, btw, you should definitely get the new version. It includes a lot of stuff the old one doesn't.
