Problems with any XML file for 2.0?
Click here to download Galaxies at War 2.0 XML files
Some people have reported issues with the installer for 2.0. If you download the installer from Moddb, and you get errors suggesting that there is a corrupt file, then I suggest the following steps:
1. Try to reinstall the mod from the installer again. Close any unnecessary programs and let the installer work.
2. If the above suggestion does not work, use the above link to download the XML files for GaW 2.0 and extract it to your /Data directory to over-write any "corrupt" XML files.

Yes...it has been a VERY long time since I have even looked at this page. Part of me is surprised that it is even still here. What I find even more shocking is some of the comments that were left behind. Some are flattering and some are not. However, that does not matter. What matters is that after several years of dead silence...I am back.
I will say that the years have been pretty good to me, and I am hard pressed to complain. I am at a pretty good point in my life where everything is nicely in order, and there is really nothing looming over my shoulders. I feel that I can once again shoulder the burden of a project like Galaxies at War.
So, I am sure that you have figured out by now that I want to work on Galaxies at War again. I want to give Galaxies at War that conclusion it never really got. I want to bring it to a place where people can look at it and say "Yes...that is a finished product". I think it is only fair that you guys get a finished product after all these years.
So...here is what I am planning to do.
First and foremost...I am planning on going Steam Workshop exclusive. This means that there will be no downloads available on Moddb. The only supported version of Galaxies at War will be the Steam Version of EAW and FOC.
Second...I am planning on having a much more rapid, but smaller, update timeline. So, instead of my old habit of waiting a year to a year and a half between major updates, I am going to aim for smaller and more rapid updates that address the mod in smaller ways. Fix a bug here. Add a ship there. adjust some DPS up there. Think of it like an ongoing public beta - where you get a steady flow of updates to the mod, and it slowly gets better and more stable over time.
Third...I am going to move my community to Discord. I have already set up a Discord server and I would like to have a more direct means of talking to the GaW fans. I want to hear directly from you, and I want you to have the ability to talk directly to me in a setting that is as close to 1 on 1 as possible. I have learned in life that there are a lot of good ideas out there and there is a lot of good feedback to be had. I want those ideas and I want that feedback. You can join my Discord server right here: Discord.gg
I will need a little bit of time to get the mod up on Steam. However, for the time being, feel free to join my Discord server. Once I get GaW live on the Steam Workshop - the Discord server is where it will be announced.
Thanks, and I look forward to seeing you guys again.
GaW 2.1 was leaked...and I have taken steps to remedy the situation. I have removed the download link, and I will be working as quickly as possible to...
On a very serious note, I have been very busy with some very tragic events.
It's not my fault...my Beta Testers fell off the Earth! Also...Someone lost my maps...
I found the problem with GC/IGC and my new factions. What a crime...
Always read the credits and always give credit where credit is due. Thanks I am going to try and keep this file up to date as much as possible.
Improved support for Galactic Conquest. Various big fixes.
The first release of Galaxies at War. There are some bug fixes from the beta version - thanks to everyone involved.

Cant wait for any of these 2.2 WIP Forces!
Do the Dominion have Jem'Hadar ships with phased-polaron beams that can bypass shield like in the movies? I'd check the mod out myself, but I'm having trouble installing it atm.
Wait for steam release I guess
I use the disk version though.
I am glad to see that its still in progress.
Please give us the new version faster, bro!
well sad to hear only steam version
The Steam version of FoC has a new patch as of Oct 2017. The mod is being developed with this patch in mind. I have no choice but to go Steam exclusive.
How is progress going lately?
Actually this should also work with retail tho
Don't expect stability with retail. The patch for the steam version corrects a memory leak that occurs when mods are running.
