Thanks Alan. No playing, just helping? That's not much fun...

Hey Guys, I was trying to play the Age of Imerialism scenario recently and ran into a very similar issue. I have had 4 errors so far that I have been able to get through by copying a closely named Unit and placing it is the dirctory it was looking for, but the last one stumped me until I...

I just signed the petition (possibly twice by mistake) and I echo many of the other sentiments here by saying it won't make a difference the way the system is set up. If Apple sales of the Mac Mini are ten times what the iMac were you might start to see a shift in the way developers do business...

Hey AlanH, I seem to have a crash every time my game tries to load a certian resource that is found in the desert. At first I thought it was a leaderhead as I have explored almost the whole world and had a crash when trying to make a first contact with a new colored boundary. I kept playing by...

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Au revoir, Crackir`

A POX on you I say!! Oh wait, you bought a PC? That means a pox will be on to you soon enough. Make sure you buy protection for that thing if you take it out on the net! Does Trojan sell software protection or only hardware protection?

Ah Cracker, once again you amaze us with your effort and brilliance. A full-size candy bar for you at my house for sure! Not one of those infuriatingly small "fun size" ones. What's fun about a one bite candy bar? As soon as the Mac files are ready I will indulge in this treat in Open mode...

No hurry on my part for the files, I just thought I would bring it up somewhere here in the forums before PMing Cracker myself. I will be recovering on All Saints Day as All Hollow's Eve will find me in a drunken stupor somewhere...

Hey, will there be a non .exe version of the unit installs to GOTM25 for us coming out from the GOTM staff? Or maybe AlanH???? Please...pretty please..... Or have I missed something again.

I too feel your pain... My wife calls Civ "the elephant game" because I used to keep the sound effects on and India would attack a lot with their UU. It would startle her while we watched TV. I have evolved to the point where I can play GOTM games on my Pismo Powerbook while watching TiVo'ed...

Hey guys, I used Alan's updater and it went well I thought. I was playing without a hiccup until I met a non-local Civ. (I don't want to include any spoiler stuff here, but....) I got "code" for a greeting in several cases. No crashes, and as Txurce stated above, the replies and actual...

Melifluous THANK YOU! Damn that was bugging me.

Score is what traditionally you look at to see how well you did. With no bonus for victory in the game it just looks bad that's all. I am used to seeing a higher score. Ah, what the heck does IIRC mean anyway. I know most of the abervs., but not this one...

Mac 1.29f B2 OPEN This was the first game in quite a while that I kept a log of events. I definitely enjoyed this new victory condition as well. It made me think out my moves prior to making them, almost like chess. Usually I play by the seat of my pants and get bogged down in the Industrial...

Make it 8.

Good point Alan, I guess I just assumed he was using a Mac...:crazyeye: Now why would I go and do that I wonder...

OK guys, I found the problem. At least one corrupted file. You need to reinstall the GOTM specific files. The easiest way is to use Alan's excelent pkg script he has written. Just click on the signature area at the end of all his posts where it says "GOTM Installers" and choose the FULL install...

Hey AlanH, I have also run into a "Lady of Spain" issue as well. I do, however, have the 7 Spain fics files and had no issues with Spain in earlier GOTMs. They can contact me, but if I try to negotiate the game crashes. I will see if I can get a crash log, but I have not yet tried that so my...

Admirals are great leaders as well in history. That would be a good improvement. They could limit a GL Admiral to building a Fleet/Armada or naval wonders, i.e. Magellans, Lighthouse, etc. Even the AI uses the escort principal when moving troops at sea.

Hmmmm... I have been submitting the turn BEFORE I win (last 2 GOTMS 19, 20) as per the instructions on the GOTM submit page. This set of instructions is saying I should wait for the turn where I win (Never lost, not once, no never, never, never... HA!) save that turn and submit it? Is this correct?
