Characters acquiring additional traits

<t> Hi!<br/>
<br/>
I have toyed around with creating characters with different specific traits. I have discovered recently that even though you can specify 3 traits in the race character file, a character can still gain random other traits. Is this working as intended?<br/>

Graph progress over time?

<t> This may have been mentioned, but I can't remember during the 4 years I have been a member here (although I don't have time to read every post).<br/>

It probably isn't possible, but I would love to see a graphing feature of the progress over time my empire makes.<br/>

RE: Das Chrome UI Mods 1.5 (12 June 2014)

<t> This is just my opinion, so please just glean from all of us to make a decision for YOUR mod:<br/>

First, I love the mod and wouldn't think of not playing with it!<br/>
<br/>
Second, I really like the way many of the resources "pop" like Gold. <br/>

Character Modding 1.9.5.0 vs. 1.9.5.1

<t> Using the instructions in the modding guide I copied the character.txt file and images from Haree78 Battlestar Galactica mod for Shadows. It worked great in 1.9.5.0. However with the new update, I haven't gotten a single character in about 4 years of play from the beginning. I'm not sure what ...

After exiting Distant Worlds and then trying to play again DW does not load

<t> I have run into a minor annoyance.<br/>
<br/>
If I play DWU (non-steam) and then exit and come back later, DW will not load. I can see in task manager the .exe is there but nothing is happening. Also, I can not seem to manually shut down the .exe file either.<br/>

Disable Anti-Virus when installing

My anti-virus was eating the .exe file faster than a Kaltor could eat an explorer ship!

Be sure you disable anti-virus protection and then add the .exe to the trusted file list before enabling anti-virus protection.

If I understand correctly, the $49.99 price reflects a $10 discount for buying now. After May 29, the price will increase to $59.99

RE: Worth buying the expansions now or wait for Universe?

Wait for Distant Worlds Universe to be released.

If Matrix Games was smart, they would offer a pre-purchase of Distant Worlds Universe which allowed the downloads of all the current versions for the cost of whatever Distant Worlds Universe is going to be.

RE: Gal Civ 3 is ready for alpha - $99 on Steam

<t> There are many times when I am playing a game and will often think there was a better way to do some aspect of it. The alpha edition of Galactic Civilizations III was designed to allow this feedback to go back to the developer. The only problem is that if you open that process up to everyone or ...
