Kinda of a way to do it. 

 

Click on the race in the race select and copy. Then work with the copy and use that in the game instead of the vanilla

You can edit them in game creation but not in game.

Renaming and being able to make provinces of multiple stars has been mentioned but.

I Know that but when I have Sol for my Star and Earth for my Home Planet, it calls my Star Earth and Planets Earth 1 Earth 2 and so on

I used to be able to mod Gal Civ II but can't figure out Gal Civ III Yet, probably close to the same but was hoping for an easier way, they should get pointers from the Civilization games lol

Its not that different to moding Civ4.

Take a look at this Test Mod

You need to edit one line in the GC3GlobalDefs.xml to point at the system/systems Group you make for them to show up in the faction creation screens. Search for Horemvore in said file to see what I changed. (Instead of the default ones, if you want the default ones to show make a copy of them from the vanilia systems file paste that in your group and change the Internal name, just add 01 to each one will do)

I agree that before they had mods in civ4 the editor in three and lower was better than our map editor.
