how to play EXTRA LARGE galaxy ?
i dunno.. i just wanna have 1000+ sectors yes ive played UDM & and Galaxies mod but have been capable of conquering them all.. i know each turn will probably take 1 hour but...its kind of fun thinking about a galaxy with 5000 sectors or more... going into large map mode might make my brain hemorage though

depends on how comfortable you are editing.ragez0r wrote:now whut ?
easiest way if your monitor supports 1920 x 1080, install 1920 x1080 rc1 and just use galaxy mod large map (90 x 47)
getting more systems is not easy and UE will not do this type of editing.
1. starname bin must be increased above amount of systems you are wanting.
2. at 0x17D568 is Galactic Density value needs to be edited to a higher value 1000.0 (4byte float) is good in most cases.
3. irregular galaxy density needs to be set to 1 in UE
4. only irregular/elliptical galaxies will display more systems.
5. for most minors displaying on left, hex editing must also be done. for more info read this post viewtopic.php?f=107&t=618&p=13384#p13384
there may even be a few other minor adjustments needed depending on the setting and GUI used.

Re: how to play EXTRA LARGE galaxy ?
most hex editors will have a "go to" function in edit/search tab just enter 0x17D568 and enter/go
on left you should see 17D560 (exact location starts at 8th column 0x17D568)
at that location vanilla would have 00 00 FA 43 change that to 00 00 7A 44 and save.
if you are editing a mod this value may have already been changed
