tao Feb 09, 2003, 04:23 AM Did you read the Mac tech support FAQ (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=41653) ?
What system are you using? Could you quote the error message, please?
LiquidPhire Feb 09, 2003, 06:50 AM naturally i have read the faq.
i have a 700mhz iBook, OS 10.2.3

If it's 1.29, it is not the Mac, but the PC version. Hence he error. ;) ;) ;)
LiquidPhire Feb 11, 2003, 08:02 PM my bad, its version 1.21g. is there a higher version?
dojoboy Feb 11, 2003, 08:04 PM Nope, you got it.
LiquidPhire Feb 11, 2003, 10:24 PM well then wtf
senecasax Feb 12, 2003, 01:56 PM Does the save game have a little map icon with it? You might want to try and use a program like
infoX (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10139) to change the file creator to Civ3 and the type to GAMs. that might fix your error.
LiquidPhire Feb 14, 2003, 09:20 PM no go on that. but thanks for the cool util.
