Hoping to make a list of how-to-do for doing this. CJ's more than a future mod has converted many of the units. But there are some missing such as the satillite models. Extracting the BE pack files gives you the .gr2, .ftsxml, and texture files. However once you have imported the files into a...

...which really could have used a second expansion or a sequel. So, I get why not everyone loves BE. It has its flaws, especially without the expansion, and it was inevitably going to be compared to Alpha Centauri on launch. That's a tough one to follow, and despite the similar premise, BE is...

I'm sure this will be a "DUH" question, but been playing B.E.R.T. for some time now and would like to know the meanings of the three numbers associated with each "Sponsor". For example, "ARC" ( Suzanne Fielding ) shows 8-8-4, while "Franco-Iberia" ( Elodie ) shows 4-0-4. The other "Sponsors"...

I found the following information worth sharing; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missions_to_the_Moon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_artificial_objects_on_the_Moon#/media/File:Moon_map_grid_showing_artificial_objects_on_moon.PNG

[DOCUMENT LINK] Beyond Earth may well be one of my favorite science fiction settings in recent memory. I love the themes present, particularly the Affinities. Not many games choose to present multiple concurrent and diverging paths leading humanity into the future. While I think we can all...

I am currently trying to port in the SABR model from Beyond Earth. I was successfully able to obtain the textures, gr2 files, and the fxsxml, but I noticed that in the fxsxml there were some lines of code for the SABR that read as follows: <BoneUsage> <Bone name="FX_Scanner_Bone"/> <Bone...

This is a problem I've been having for weeks now and I can't seem to find a solution. Every time I load up Civ 5 from my steam library, the DirectX menu pops up, I choose my setting, and then nothing. Steam says I'm still running it, and it shows up in the Task Manager, but it's not actually...

How to Save BE/Why AC works and BE does not BE could have been wonderful. Sid Meir triumphantly throwing off the shackles of history and returning to space and philosophy. Instead it showed how they learned all the wrong lessons from the success and overall adoration of Alpha Centauri, how...

Does anyone know if there are any earth maps out there? I always thought it would be cool to have an earth map for beyond earth for like... the sponsors to return to earth a la Battlestar Galactica. I can't be the only person who has thought of this...

So I just loaded Beyond Earth after purchasing Rising Tide. It worked fine for a day or two of playing, but then after loading it up today, I got this error: intruder.dll: load error. Additionally, the diplomacy screen appears bugged in Rising Tide; but this error takes precedence to me. I...

Why not make a Total Conversion Mod for Civilization VI (after the official modding tools and an expansion comes out, perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself) that takes place on an alien planet? Civilization Beyond Earth only sold 1.5 million copies but I am a huge Sci-Fi geek and I learned a...

I can no longer load modded games (yes, I double-load the mods first), because while loading the save civ crashes with the following message. How do I fix this? Yes, I was using the same mods the game was saved with. Saved games just stopped working this weekend, and I can't get them to work...

Hey all i just got BE (not on steam) i always played warlords prior to that and used to use the Romans which are now a bit different then what im used too. Anyhow im on the forum to find some people to play with since i never had anyone to play civ warlords with, well no one had it, now that i...

Greetings, everyone. Over the course of Civ VI's announcements, I have been steadily building suggestions for a Beyond Earth 2. Here I would like to share what I think the Affinities could do if they were made with Civ VI mechanics instead of Civ V mechanics. Let me know what you think. I would...

In the twilight of Earth's great civilizations, we were chosen to venture to the stars in search of a new home. But we did not travel alone. As we slept, behind us streaked messages from Earth. Their dream that we would not let the light of humanity extinguish. When we awoke we listened to words...
