Thanks, jpinard! I added at ".zip" to the "No" and got the files just fine! EDIT 1:But...crap, it's not working still. Is this because I don't have DA? I'm a noob, and only have Dread Lords still. Can this work with DL? EDIT 2: Hell yes it can! I just copied the MainWnd.dxpack file into the GalCivII/Screens directory, and all is well! Thanks so much for this. I like it! Now if someone could get rid of ALL the glare... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smil

Okay, n00b question: How the hell do I install or use this mod? When I dl it, all I get is a single file called "No". I put it in my "Defaults" folder, but nothing is happening. How do I use a mod, and will it work with an existing save?

Hey there, guys. I'm wondering about autopilot.

Wow, thanks for all the great responses, guys. As I said, I'm still learning the game, so maybe I just need to go crazy and play in a large galaxy with a lot of opponents and see what happens! I still need to fight wars, and form alliances, and bombard a planet from space (!) and many other things, so there's a lot to look forward to. I don't have DA yet, though, and probably won't get it for some time. I just hope they keep updating the base game with patches and features, as there are

Early game: Always the same? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hey all! I've been lurking for a week or so, learning all I can about this awesome game, but I wanted to post while I can about something that's been bugging me since I started my last game or two. I'm still learning the details, of course. I've read a ton about how to play the game, including the beginners guide and a lot of the general strategy guides here and on the Wiki. I played the Yor into an Influence Victory on Beginner level, and it was good, but now I'm trying some of the ot
