Hey Everyone!
Please help me out if you would. I have both Civ III and Play the world and have the latest patches as of late November, '02.

My problem is that there are alot of cool scenerios on the scenerio page of this web site; I can't seem to play or properly dowload them. I am able to open them by clicking on the scenerio, and when I hit the 'open' button on the 'you have chosen to download _____ ' the little box icon pops up.

I have then tried to save the file to a certain location in my computer, mostly to the 'scenerios' folder, but it never appears when I load-up the game. Clicking on the icon of the scenerio I just downloaded in windows doesn't help either.

I found that sometimes I was sending them to the temporary internet folder, but then I started to send them to my F drive where my Civ is installed. I still can't get them to work. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

Most scenarios are typically zipped, so sending them directly to your scenario folder won't help. You need to unzip them first, then move the .bic/.bix file to your scenario folder and any other files to their appropriate locations (be sure to back up your original files before saving over or replacing anything). If you don't have Winzip or other similar program, you can find demo versions on the web. Hope this helps you out. And questions like this should be posted in the main creation and customization forum.
