Your Stardock.net account is used here by the forums, in Stardock Central, on other Stardock sites, and also to manage your Metaverse characters. "One account to rule them all."
Your account can have up to THREE characters tied to it. Most people will have only 1 but this way, if you have multiple people in your family playing the game (my son plays for instance) they can use a character.
If you've already pre-loaded, you should be able to go to the Metaverse and Manager Characters. You will need your serial # to create another character.
If you have any problems, let us know.
Ok, I'll take these one at a time
gbuchold, dajaxx, Noxin -1) Creating an empire doesnt mean joining an empire. Go to that empire's page and click the join button, and select which player you would like to join the empire you created.2) The metaverse only knows what the game tells it. If you have erroneous cheat games being reported, please post in a seperate thread in the appropriate forum for the game development team to see.
Warren Steffen - Please email me the serial number, along with a copy of the post you made here (so i know what its about) and I can investigate why your serial number isnt working. Please continue to try to submit games in the mean time.
Jeysie - I'll have a look into that, thanks for letting us know.
You would have needed to start your game as a Metaverse game. You do that by clicking on the Metaverse button in the game's main menu screen. If your saved game wasn't started as a Metaverse game, there's no way to submit it to the Metaverse. This is because Metaverse games use "standard" data, whereas normal, non-Metaverse games use data that is (potentially) moddable. Allowing games played using modded data would defeat the purpose of the Metaverse, which is to allow players to compete with others on an equal footing.
The Metaverse Map is a representation of the Top 10 Empires. Each shaded region represents an empire and the territory in space in which they have conquered. The map is only generated once a day.
You should be fine in using your temporary serial number (keeps fingers crossed).
Looks like the game is trying to use your TotalGaming serial number. Please update your Serial number with the GalCiv II serial number that you received.
Stamforth, I suspect the Launcher failed to update your serial. Do you have Stardock Central installed? If so, start it up. It should automatically fetch your serial number from our Db and update it. Verify this by going into the registration dialog and checking the serial number that is registerd for GalCiv2. If its blank please update your serial there and try again.
M.B.M. I believe the new update has a fix for that. The update is not available via Stardock CEntral yet but you can get it from the download/registration page. https://www.galciv2.com/downloads.aspx
There are many great features available to you once you register, including:
