Race Ages (Direct from the .exe file)
 

Hello, I have been reading this forum for a few weeks and I must say that it has been very helpful to me. My friends and I have just recently starting playing this cool/addictive game.
I have been looking at some possible exe mods for the game and while browsing through the game file, I came across the coding for the race ages.

0 Newborn
5,001 Infantile
10,001 Young
50,001 Moderate
200,001 Old
1,000,001 Ancient
10,000,001 God-like
100,000,001 Stellar Ancients

I have been as far as Ancient (using a special map) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif . Has anyone achieved Stellar Ancients yet?

Hacking into the executable is generally frowned upon here.

Wow Stellar Ancients....

I have made it to ancient... but i am always trying new empires...

Fyron is correct, not to be offensive, but in the past we have all learned that people who have hacked the code often expolit such an advantage in PBW games.

I would ask you how you did it, but then everyone would know, and a whole new breed of suspect games would erupt.

Please do not share how you hacked the code with anyone. If they do not know, its better that they stay that way.

as much as i would like to know how to do it i must agree with Atrocities and Fyron. After all if someone really wanted to know then there is plenty of info on the web.

but it would be nice if some of the info like the race ages and other info was posted somewhere. it is interesting even if we cant modify it.

I agree with everyone else. If you are looking for mods there are plenty to download from this site as well as PBW and other sites. More then enough to Last you until SE:V(or other SE game) comes out, so you don't have to look into exe mods.
Hacking as was said is frowned upon and no one likes a hacker.

I agree with everybody else here, but one question:

Did you notice any bonuses based on your ancient status?

Re: Race Ages (Direct from the .exe file)
 

Race age does not give any bonus. It was originally intended to, but the feature was removed because it would be too easy to exploit.

Re: Race Ages (Direct from the .exe file)
 

i do not think it is common knowledge... But down the road if the game is not open sourced... Then perhaps this is a way to go to customize the game even further.

The cloaked warp points is one feature i could think of ...

Tesco, do not encourage hacking the executable.
