Your first Alpha Centauri LP was the first LP of yours I ever watched, and was actually the reason I subbed. It makes me very happy to see a new one come out. Keep up the great work!
Pro tip: give your terraformers Hypnotic Trance. Not only will this make mind worms blow up when they try to take them out, but you get to make "more than meets the eye" jokes.

Sid Meier's ALPHA CENTAURI is one of my favorite games. Having no luck getting my old copy to run, I downloaded it from GoG. I then did a search for a Let's Play and found an excellent one by ...Quill18! :) I subbed to his channel, but I put the game aside. Since I didn't have the expansion. I've been waiting for the expansion on GoG and waiting for Quill to do another LP. Now I have both! What a great Christmas present, Thanks!

mine + farm on rolling/moist tiles is actually worse than just planting a forest there. The mine will negate the extra nutrient from the farm (giving you only 1) while only producing 2 minerals. Meanwhile, a forest will give you the same amount in nutrients and minerals while also giving you an extra energy.

@Quill You should be aware that the cities don't optimize terrain use when you do terraforming. So, when you built the forest, you should have switched a worker to it, as the city won't do it itself. I think it will fix when you grow one. If you keep building colony pods though, it may not reset.

Especially the units, they look blurred. Is there an option in game to set higher graphics setting? Does anyone have any ideas to improve the graphics and make them more sharp, crisp and stable, in windows 7. My computer spec are windows 7, 64 bit operating, amd radeon HD7700 series if that helps.

Unfortunately the game is pretty dated in terms of graphics and there are basically no animations to speak of. Anyway there is a way to adapt the game to your resolution. In your gog folder of the game there is a AlphaCentauri.ini file and you only have to add the line "ddraw=0" and save the file. Now the game should run at your native resolution although it has some black bars underneath the bottom bar, which is fine though.

@junker15410 жыл бұрын
It's very overwhelming at first but it isn't that complex later on once you have figured out how the system works. There are some parts of the game that you can leave untouched and just auto-govern. The main issue is that the game hasn't aged all that well, it's fairly playable but some of the menus are pretty convoluted. I recommend starting with the base game without the expansion. Watching lps, especially the one from Quill helps out a lot. Hope you can get into it!
