Argh, I missed the one in the mod-mod. Thank you again!

Still struggling to get this mod-mod to work. I have CCM2.5 installed and working correctly--no text problems. The text is still wonky in RARR 1.7. Beating my head against a wall now!

Thank you, Civinator. I had modified that old mod to run a 1,000-turn game so I guess I'll have to give that up for now. Really odd that I played the Steam version for well over 2,000 hours before it glitched. I also tried eliminating the Steam version and going back to playing from CD, but...

RAR has been my go-to mod for ages. It suddenly quit working yesterday. I have fully uninstalled the game, deleted the folders (since Steam didn't), and reinstalled everything and it is still broken. The selection screens are not appearing correctly when starting a new game and the radio buttons...

I cannot use the RARR-patch file. It downloads as .rar instead of .exe.

D/Led patch from CivFanatics. Tried to install and got the error telling me I don't have Civ4 and stupidly selected "abort" instead of "ignore". This deleted Civ4.exe from my computer. Fumed a bit. Came here and read this thread. Goofed around for an hour trying to figure out how to...

I placed my Amazon order on September 28. The estimated ship date is October 29 and estimated delivery date is November 8. It must be coming from Siberia. :rolleyes:

I have to choose undecided for now. Labor negotiations with hubby's employer are going poorly. If they strike, we probably can't afford new games. It would be totally out of the question if a computer upgrade is required. :cry:

Fiberglass makes small cuts in the lungs (just like the cuts on your hands if you don't wear gloves during installation) if it is inhaled. You should wear at least a paper mask if not a respirator when working with exposed fiberglass. If the attic is full of shredded newspaper, chances are...

I make more of an effort now since I have a toddler who is in the mimic phase. The hardest thing is to remember to use these common courtesies around the house. It is easy to take family for granted.

The Lake Erie islands on the north side of Ohio are a nice place to go in the summer. South Bass Island has a party reputation. Kelley's Island is much quieter and very beautiful. Both have wineries. If there are younger ones in your family who still want to do the amusement park thing...

I've been fired twice. The first time was from campus dining services because I was sick and missed a shift on Homecoming weekend and the supervisor assumed everyone who missed was drunk/hungover so all were fired. My roommate, who also worked there, vouched that I had not been drinking and...

I'm B- so I'm one of the rarest around here. I used to donate regularly but then began to have chronic anemia problems. :( @ RoddyVR: If you don't know your blood type, call your doctor's office. If they have ever drawn blood for any tests, your blood type should be on your medical...

The interest rate-credit limit correlation is true for our cards. None of our cards are fixed-rate but all have some kind of reward. We always pay the balance in full each month and never take cash advances so we are indifferent as to the interest rate. Many (but not all) of the rewards-type...

I'm so sorry I missed the whole thing. My daughter (age 2) ended up in the hospital so I stayed there with her. Maybe next year... (Isn't that what the Chicago Cubs always say?)
