Gauntlet/ custom start up ships never show in menu

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hi guys,

 

I was wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem to me: Gauntlet's custom ships and my own custom ships never have a startup ship in the menu, although the ships can be selected.

 

I am placing the ships in the startup directory in steam directories on my computer. Operating GalCiv 1.82 and the latest version of Gauntlet's Race Mod (4.9). 

 

When selected the custom ships always crash the game. I am not modifying Gauntlet's custom ships in any way and following his procedures to copy files to the recommended locations. 

 

Has anyone had any similar problems? If so did you find a workaround?

 

Cheers

Bren

You need to add them to the new zip files located in the main game directory Designs/Startup folder.

Hello Horemvore, 

 

Yes, that's where the go. I mean they are not appearing in the menu despite being in there and was wondering if anyone had found a similar problem.

My mistake - needs the compressed object config file

Those are provided with the mod, did you purposely not copy them over?

No that was just an oversight. Sorted out now
