Current version: 1.7.6
The Galactopedia is a utility program for Stardock’s excellent space strategy game Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords, providing you with exhaustive information on all objects and technologies defined by the game. The information is taken directly from the game’s data files, and therefore always up-to-date.

This version is based on version 1.6.1, released on 10 December 2006, by Christoph Nahr.
I have made it Twilight of the Arnor compatible, fixed several bugs, and provided a few new minor features. And possible introduced some new bugs in the process. This version is also, unlike 1.6.1, fully compatible with the latest version of Dark Avatar. The modified source code can be provided upon request.

I updated the Geckodon's tech tree, abilities, portrait and gave them a ship style. NOTE: The templates in the ship Cfg file will replace the default Krynn colony, survey and miner templates.

I updated the race file, tech tree along the logo and the portrait (which belongs to Formis6)

This mod adds about 105 new components (jewelery) which consist of:
-Hulls
-Weapons
-Engines
-Defense

The instructions to download are in the readme - so read it.

For TA only (not tested on anything else)

This is only 1.0 in future updates, I hope to add all the modules
(Colony Ship Module, Spore Module...ect)
When I have time

Comments are strongly urged! I would like to know what improvements that I should add, or just general comments.

This file is currently up to date for:
Federation 3rd Edition

Gorn 2nd Edition
ISC 1st Edition
Hydran 1st Edition
Tholian 1st Edition
Lyran 1st Edition
Romulan 2nd Edition
Kzinti 1st Edition

I have submitted this so I don't have to update each ShipCfg folder in all my ship packs. This is also for those that messed up their old ShipCfg folders.

ONLY use this if you are using my Ship packs (http://library.galciv2.com/index.aspx?a=2985422) and
ONLY if you are using Twilight of Arnor.

As each new ship pack comes out this will also be updated.

Without these files you can't start the game with the Player Useable Shipstyle of my ships.

ONLY Install this into:
C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\Twilight\Data\ShipCfg

MAKE SURE YOU GOT THE RIGHT FOLDER. Double check even.

Either copy the files into the folder or just overwrite the ShipCfg folder. Either will work.

OK now what if you mess up?
The original ShipCfg folder is here in case you mess up: ShipCfg-original.

See how nice I am to you?

The Wolfins are the counterparts of the Kzinti from a paraell universe.

The Terran Republic from the Galactic Wars mod project which i had to scrap.

Added a Flare to the SUN!!!

Added Flares to the other Stars

The Geckodon Alliance is now under your command. Includes tech tree and read mewith instructions,this is for TAand Da only

Ok this is my second mod hope you like it, the races were made by me but the Portrets and logos where not. they where made by varease artest and i thank them but unfortunly i dont know them so if this is your your pic or logo thank you.

This Mod REQUIRES that you first Download

Gauntlet's Race Mod 3
Gauntlet's Race Mod 4 UPGRADE

This will give you a total of 100 Race Images!
25 Custom Races! 25 Ship Sets (which don't oversize parts!)
35 Minor Races, and 70 Race Logos

You Can ONLY get ALL of this if you download all 3 Packs!

I apologize for the inconvenience but Star Dock only provides 20MB!

Yet another randomiser for GalCiv2. This one can be used with ALL English versions of the game!

Supported are GalCiv2: Dread Lords, Dark Avatar and Twilight!

If someone sends me a list of all available language versions, the next release will cover those as well.

.NET 2.0 required, XP and upwards should already have that.

Place in you game folder (e.g. GalCiv2\DarkAvatar) and run.

A light map textures plus Coruscant texute made by Master U.

You can play the Custom race for the Coruscant Map + The lights. Or choose any other race and get only the lights.

Note that: This only works on GC2 Dread Lords version 1.4x other versions will not work. I'm pretty sure it's working with DA

Thanks to Stefan for giving me the idea! Thanks!

Hi everyone, this is an upgrade for the Gauntlet's Race Mod 3.0, therefore you MUST have that mod to use this one.

This mod adds

A race image for each custom pic called RaceRobot which can be used to replace a custom races generic robot informant image, thus you can get status reports from your own race pic instead of a robot, all of my custom races have this enabled. You can do this for your via their XML file.

The custom races now have custom home-world's using custom planet images too.

15 Planet Images
4 more custom races (total 18)
5 Race Pics (total 60)

70 logos from many other mods

NOTE: Every attempt was made to contact the authors of these various logos to ask permissions for their use, however due to the nature of the internet and gaming/forums, not everyone is still going to be around to answer their given emails or PMs. I decided to add the logos anyways, and below is the authors full credit! If anyone authored these logos and does not approve of their use please feel free to contact me and I will remove them from this mod. Since these logos are already available from Stardock Central's Library for free and universal use, I don't see much conflict in using them.
