Hey AlanH. Thanks for responding. I have lowered those settings already. So Civ 5 runs okay because of that. But in the mid game things get really slow --- so I often play in strategic mode. My question is more about an option in the .ini file or something like that. Any other ideas?

Greetings, The reason I am writing this post is in order to enquire whether or not there is a mod that allows or a file that can de-activate key graphics to improve performance. For example, in Paradox's Crusader Kings II, I have the option to de-active the water graphics (or to no longer...

Well, ancient civilizations often did have embassies with other nations. It was pretty common. It makes sense that one would have to first have a relationship via diplomacy/embassy before allowing military forces to move through a country. So historically it makes sense; it also protects us from...

Are your words the words of a prophet or a charlatan trying to ruin my joy? I've played . . . Civ IV on bootcamp before, and I did not experience "thermal shutdown" —whatever that means precisely. To be honest, I am not extremely computer savvy when it comes to gaming on MACs. I do have a MBP...

I dare to dream :). "Sigh," o well. I've been playing Civ, since Civ I (is that 1994?!), and Civ V is the only game that I cannot play on large map types. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and play on bootcamp. :)

My hope is that it will run smoother on Macs. I wonder if Aspyr or Firaxis will be able to accomplish that? Or am I just hoping against hope here?

I played a game as the lizard race on a fractal world with all other settings on normal (speed, temp, etc.), and the game initialized. So it is not a beast race problem, but more than likely a erebus map problem. Is there any way for me to get around this or am I just stuck? In any case, I...

No no lol. Sorry, I meant the regular FF2 and not the modmod fall further. I was using erebus and perfect world. However, I was not using peak softening settings. I will try a small map on different map settings and report back presently. I wonder... I know that there used to be a bug...

I have a problem. Whenever I begin a new game, it freezes while initializing. I wait for about 5-10 minutes and nothing happens. However, it worked once and the game ran well. But, once again, it will no longer initialize a new map. Is this a common bug or am I missing something? I have Patch A...

Actually in 200 BC egyptian philosopher Aristostinies calculated the circumference of world. This was commonly accepted as true from that point on, especially since the judeo/christian bible talks about the world being a circle.

awesome thanks for the quick and informative reply.
