Introducing:

The High Resolution Graphics Mod by LogicSequence

Do you like eye candy? Do you wish Galactic Civilizations 2 had Higher Resolution textures? Do you wish the planets and solar systems looked more realistic? Do you think your PC can HANDLE IT?

Welcome players of Galactic Civilizations 2, to The High Resolution Graphics Mod by LogicSequence. I've been developing this mod for some weeks now, and the time is near for it's release.

In short, this mod will:
Replace the textures for all the races' homeworlds with new, original higher resolution versions.
Replace all Class 0 planet textures with new, original higher resolution versions.
Replace all ring and moon textures with new, original higher resolution versions.
Replace all cloud textures with new, original higher resolution versions.
Include authentic all-new Raw Terrain maps for all of the races' homeworlds.
Add more color variation to the background nebulae.

This mod isn't for the older PC. Some of the textures in this mod are 4096 x 2048 pixels, and many are 2048 x 1024, or 1024 x 512. If your PC meets the recommended system requirements for Galactic Civilzations 2: Dark Avatar, you should be able to run this mod without any problems.

Is there anywhere that hosts this mod now? Cant find it anywhere.

It's in the Library on this site WWW Link You have to scroll down a bit to it.

The link posted on this site is not working. I think they were trying to get it back up but I cant wait

Successfully updated karma reason!

Hmmm.. I'll ask Drengin what happened to it. It was being hosted by The Galactic Core, but they recently redid the mod site part of it and I don't see it there now.

Thanks for the help DethAdder

Broken link?

I wouldn't mind some higher res graphics myself, particularly on the world maps. Linky?

Logic made a lot of the new textures in TA, however they are not the same as the ones from HRGM1. HRGM2 includes higher resolution versions of the the new textures, and more.

Is this mod not available for Twilight?

Hello guys

I just installed GalCiv2 (original) and thought that this high resolution mod could be nice...but every link is broken, I cant find it anywhere...little help perhaps?

This aint working http://87.118.120.219/downloads.php?do=file&id=56 and neither is this http://thegalacticcore.com/mods/HRGMod_Setup.exe

I believe LS has somehow restricted his files to I-Mod productions only...

Well, so much for res graphics. I found the graphics mod for DA(because I'm to poor to afford TA right now) here:

http://www.i-mod-productions.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=56

However, you have to register with the site to download, and then it seems that the poeple who have downloaded it are complaining of a possibly broken installer and an adware virus in one of the folders.

And all I wanted were some pretty graphics.

Successfully updated karma reason!

I put faith in my Norton Anti-Virus and installed anyway. Once the little adware demon was killed I have enjoyed a new view of GalCiv II. I was a little irked by how the Mod section of my Ultimate Edition (2.02.007) is screwed up. This was easly bypassed by editing the Prefs.ini

C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor\Prefs.ini (XP path)

[Line 89] ModsDir=E:\GalacticCiv II\Twilight\Mods\High Resolution Graphics Mod v2

*I didn't use default install dir. so pick your own.

I didn't have to sign up to download. It nags you to sign up, I did anyway but I had downloaded the Mod before I went to that step.

Honestly, I couldn't make out from the readme if you only needed the 2nd Mod. So if anyone knows better speak up

Successfully updated karma reason!

There any chance of getting it uploaded to a different site? I live in Maine and thus cannot connect to i-mod.

Successfully updated karma reason!

Maine has lost access there too?

Darn, i thought Quebec and Ohio & the whole UK were the only ones affected by this WAN routing flaw by North-American ISP servers.

Successfully updated karma reason!

Yeah, it's really annoying ;/

I tried to use a proxy to get by it, but with no luck.

Successfully updated karma reason!

I dont have NOrton Anti-virus....

What other options do I have?
