I've posted in it in the main forum but I'm overjoyed that Brad decided to tweak the Metaverse scoring to better reward those who play the higher difficulties.

That was the only change to the scoring that I was holding out hope for and Brad granted it.

I'm seriously considering upgrading to Drengin.net now.

On a personal note, I am proud to be your nemesis.

Don't upgrade right now, looks like the posted version has a game breaking bug in it....

#828 by Veteran Primipilus Alexus - 7/31/2003 7:39:41 PM

It was alright here. The missing file is one of the VC++ runtimes iirc. It may be elsewhere on your system!

Incidentally missing file (if a problem) is MSVCRTD.DLL

It's a library from MS Visual C++ - I think to do with debugging.

I've put a copy on my website

Link

Note about 385k. Download into your galciv directory and it should fix the problem

USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I see, thanks for posting that.

I have to finish my current game before upgrading, anyways, so Stardock is likely to have posted a fix by then.

Thanks for posting the link in case I need it.

#832 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 7:51:10 PM

Has anyone gone to #stardock chat to tell them about it?

#833 by Diplomat HawaiiFive-O - 7/31/2003 7:52:00 PM

Not that I'm aware of, they normally cruise this forum as well.

#834 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 7:53:02 PM

I have to go to work now but maybe one of you can pop by and tell them just in case they have not seen the messages on the forum.

#835 by Diplomat HawaiiFive-O - 7/31/2003 7:56:25 PM

No one in there that I recognize...

#836 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 7:57:22 PM

Thank you, Chris. I'm touched.

And congrats to all you GROSSers who have worked hard for the 1M score. Good job!

#837 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 9:00:37 PM

I was thinking about the fact that the Drengin.net subscribers will get an advantage to scoring as compared to those who are not subscribers due to the new scoring tweak.

My proposal would be for Stardock to synchronise v1.05 and v1.09/v2.0 scores so that everyone is on a level playing field.

#838 by Citizen Free Tibet - 7/31/2003 9:33:13 PM

"Sanctuary!"
"Sanctuary!"

I seek respite . . . those nasty pirates will never think to look here!

#839 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 9:38:47 PM

The Fellowship Halls is a safe haven for all.

Welcome to the Fellowship, Cotal.

Delighted to have you join us!

You're the second lady to grace our Halls.
The first being of course our CariElf the cleric.

#840 by Citizen Wild Wombat - 7/31/2003 9:38:55 PM

I see you, Cotal....what's going on now? Who's nasty, and what are you up to?

Ray - congrats on 100k; thanks for the cheers on 1 mill.

#841 by Veteran Samurai Ben - 7/31/2003 9:48:49 PM

To the mighty wizards, fearsome warriors, poetic bards, and all of the little people in the Fellowship (sorry H5O):

Congrats on being the first Empire to 1.01 million and retaking the lead.

So, who's starting the betting pool on the 2 mil mark?

#842 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 9:58:33 PM

Hail Obi Wan, Jedi Master of the Force.

The Fellowship returns the salute to a most valued ally.

No more betting for me. I've lost two bags of gold already playing in Rabid Rob's gambling den.

#843 by Veteran Samurai Ben - 7/31/2003 10:05:34 PM

The Fellowship returns the salute to a most valued ally.

(Obi-Wan quickly glances over both shoulders to see if somebody's behind him) Umm...thanks! (wonders if Kit taped a "Kick Me" sign to his back again)

Cotal, what's with the change? By the way, those wizard robes look good on ya. Gotta love a girl in formalwear.

#844 by Diplomat HawaiiFive-O - 7/31/2003 10:23:57 PM

Don't worry, we Halflings are used to the foibles of the Tall Ones. For some silly reason you Humans attach importance to the strangest qualities of your fellow sentients. What matters one's height when compared to one's deeds?

#845 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 10:25:49 PM

Well said, H50.

If based on deeds, you are ten feet tall.

#846 by Veteran Samurai Ben - 7/31/2003 10:30:48 PM

What matters one's height when compared to one's deeds?

(Obi-Wan glances around.) Master Yoda? Is that you? (Fails to see H5O as he's looking over his head)

(Obi-Wan considers why his mental processes continue to magically appear for all to see. And why he is speaking of himself in the third person. Perhaps the Calvin and Hobbes influence is strong with the Metaverse itself and not only with G.R.O.S.S.)

Sorry, H5O. I should know by now that it's never wise to poke a Hobbit who's holding a lit pipe.

#847 by Citizen Free Tibet - 7/31/2003 10:48:21 PM

Obi Wan Now I'm really blushing!

I posted a heartfelt reason for leaving the ANZACs in one of thier two threads (can't remember which one). I've always admired the folks in both the Fellowship and your Jedi Republic and I figured joining either would be a good decision. When I read that GROSS was numero uno . . . well I had to do something about it!

Right off the bat I need to ask a question (or two . . . mabye more) regarding Antimatter Technology . . .

a. What's the absolute quickest path to making Atimatter misslies (AM) disregarding all else?
b. How come I can built AM in systems without a AM powerstation? Is this an oversight or does it depend solely on my current tech completed?
c. Is there anyway to increase AM yields? (can't imagine why they already 'kick buttinski' but I'm just curious)

I ask all this because I'm trying to create a super-low cost stratergy. I hate maintanence costs and build losta sensors to stave off invasion (using them as fodder to block transports). . . and thought AMs are dirt cheap and great value for money!

Also it would appear that leaving the Galactic Council in ver 1.05 sanctions all trade even to minors! Please tell me this isn't the case in 1.09 . . . I happened across this when I couldn't move a Terror Star at a critical time because of GC resolutions. doh!

Please induldge me, thanks.

#848 by Ambassador Ray the Wanderer - 7/31/2003 10:49:00 PM

Hey guys,

No nominations from any of you for the Altarian Star Awards?

I'm sure you enjoyed stories written by some of our very talented writers on the board.

#849 by Veteran Killa Koala - 7/31/2003 10:56:06 PM

Congrats Fellowship on also reaching 1,000,000.

It shows the true grit and determination of Galcivvers.

Now I suggest that the Fellowship and G.R.O.S.S. (which is really about plundering nasty aliens and not our much loved human brethren and woman) (note: the dictionary says that 'brethren' means brothers so Cotal can't be a brethren- maybe a brethhen?) amalgamate and become the G.R.O.S.S. Fellowship, and we can all live happily ever after.
