I'm trying to play multiplayer with my brother but we keep getting sync errors ever 4-6 turn, just wondering if anyone might know why this is happening and how it may be fixed.

Thanks for your time guys.

P.S We are on a LAN connection.
not sure if Tethys used this patch or not

Use QD patcher

viewtopic.php?f=126&t=2515

check if this patch is applied "Chasing ships away morale-boosting exploit (fix)" if so this could be cause of desync,

both players must have same change if you remove patch.

This has been reported before in galaxy mod so it may not be MP friendly.

It could be any one of the 100's of code changes Tethys has made.

No worries mate, I'll just play All the Ages multiplayer for now and just play Galaxies in singleplayer until Tethys bring out the next big patch.

Thanks again for your time and I'm glad to see that the BOTF community is still alive and kicking :)

P.S Another problem I'm having is when I go up tech levels there is no way to upgrade any of my infrastructure i.e Fabricator, farms etc.

Hello Tethys,
Are you still working on this? I hope you are as I'm loving it.
Just wanted to offer my help if you want race info text writing for the new minor races and major races.
I have no programming knowledge so I can't help with that but anything you think I can do to help.

like almost all botf addons or expansions that always tell me a file is missing when trying to run it in win xp... will the galaxies mod stay true to that lineage ?
mssd32.dll i think...

most mods need some backup files that only the multi installer has so,

install main multi installer first before installing any mod.

Is there any chance the download can be put on a service that doesn't require registration? Like dropbox or Google drive or something.
I'd be happy to host it from my dropbox or google drive if necessary.

May I kindly ask for the planet .ANI files of this Mod?
I like the idea to extend the number of planet types in another little project.
Just need all the .ani files. I can convert them to .TGA with my Hex-Editor and then via RadVideo tool to .BMP

if you ask for permission please wait for Thetys or Thundercero's reply
if you ask how to get the files: all those files are in stbof.res; use UE to open stbof.res; Edit->Others->Files and there you can get the individual files.

UE is here: viewtopic.php?f=125&t=22
Not sure what version is there but the extract files functionality should be available.
