Galaxyforge v1.1 does not open the maps i DL or the screen is just black blank. The current game at xmas 2008 is at version 1.1 (110) and i using 7 sins mod 1.3d which should run on game patch 105. Apparrently MODS, MAPS, Tools (Galaxy Forge) and "core" GAme (patch 101-105) all have different versions that need to match to work!!Įxample i am running game patch 105 which i guess is version 1.05 probaly from around march 2008. but hey maybe it will help out someone else figure this out quicker rather than googling it.ġ. It might be here in other forums or burried with the 16 pages of posts. Why doesn't my map open in galaxy forge or in the maps screen?Īfter going through several pages and trying to use the search feature I was frustrated and thought other new users (newbs) like me would appreciate this. Hope this is some help to other people who have spent ages on a map in Forge, only to not be able to play it! The map will come up in Small, Medium etc Scenarios, and should work fine. Here's how to fix the problem of getting a custom map made in galaxy forge to work in Sins both to see the map in the first place and then to be playable (rather than instant defeat).įirstly : Make sure Sins is installed on C: Drive (as opposed to in Program Files)Ģ: Once you have made the map in Forge, open it up in notepad.īrowseDescription "TODO - Add Description Here."īrowsePictureName "ScenarioPicture-UserGenerated"īrowseDescription "IDS_CUSTOMGALAXY_DESCRIPTION_USERGENERATED"ĥ: Make sure that this file is saved in 'C.\Sins of a Solar Empire\Galaxy' and not 'Users/Name/appdata' Reduce the radius, even if planets are left hanging outside the radius. To sum it up again: your map may not be showing up because it is the wrong size. If you make a map where the radius is 100, your map will be listed with the small maps. If you enter a value above 300, for example, you are apparently "huge", and won't show up on any of the lists. The location seems to depend on the radius of your star/galaxy. This makes the whole map visible Clubber-t 15:40, Janu(UTC)Ī critical point no one seems to mention - when you make a map in Galaxy Forge, it will not always show up under "custom maps". You start a game, "Surrender" and then click "Keep playing".
You have to add the map name to the galaxy.manifest and alter the number of files at the top Limits for sins in a map are 512 planets,& 512 stars
