    3D Tutorial ?

    From what I can see in the Mods sections, the modders only have one real problem with making their mods : Not enough 3D modellers around. How moddable is this game if almost no one can do it ? :confused: So, in the name of the whole community here (or a good part of it at least), the...

    Multiplayer error

    A friend and I have been playing a long epic game on a large map and we both protected our civs with passwords. But my password for the American empire suddenly doesn't work anymore in the last save and the autosaves (1806 AD), but it does work for a save from 1598 AD before our 5 hour play...

    Religious conversion - Cultural predestination

    Two suggestions here : Religious conversion over time One of the things that I find most disturbing in the realism aspect of this game is the fact that 9 times out of 10 games you're playing in a buddhist or hinduistic world because those religions were founded and spread first. I'm not...

    What is the unhealthy option for me ?

    Hi, I'm about to ask a rather personal question and I know it's not the best place to do it, but none of you guys know me in person and sometimes it seems like it's the least risky path to clarify some things. There will be stupid comments, but hey, that's to be expected. Anyway, as I told...

    X is trying to connect (Player 0)

    I'm playing a game on the server against a friend of mine and 7 other civs (medium, continent, simultaneous) Now we've progressed to 1860 AD (well I have, his civ is still medieval, but that's off topic) and every 5 seconds we see a message saying (X is trying to connect. Please wait (Player...

    Does Civ 4 alter network settings ?

    Hi, Some 10 to 20 minutes after I install, I get kicked off the network of my university (which is the only option to have internet at college) ... it no longer grants me a subnetmasker. The only way to restore my internet is to go to Systeemherstel (EN : System restore ?) and go back to a...

    Who bought fireworks ?

    I've noticed 2 graphical bugs which really bother the hell out of me (besides the memory leakage ofcourse). Bug 1 : After opening or closing a city screen, all rivers on the map sometimes have black dittering over it. Bug 2 : Suddenly, out of nowhere, the whole map looks like a fireworks...

    How far does moddability stretch ?

    They've already said this will be the most moddable game of all times, and I'm willing to believe that, but I wonder to what extent things are moddable. This mainly is because I'm a sci fi fan and I'd like a newer version of Master of Orion II that doesn't suck or a really nice Civ based Star...

    Predict the Mod

    Let's try a little game here. We've spoken about glitches and ideas for a long time now, so let's predict what the first modification would be. It will probably be something that's easy moddable, not a complete overhaul.

    The controversial invasion thread.

    The year in 2006, the western world and it's allies feel the sudden urge to invade/conquer/liberate a country with UN backing. Who should it be ? In other words, which country's leader should "releaved of their command". I'd say Zimbabwe ... it should be cheap and easy to conquer and...

    New technology tree idea.

    Technology I know this one will never make it to a Civ game, but I just wanted to share my thoughts and the problems I feel the technology tree has in the game. In Civ games all civilization are almost forced to follow exactly the same path to the post industrial, or modern ages...

    Resource problem in my game.

    Hi, I'm a frequent player, though I only play at monarch level (I despise high unfair AI bonusses), but I don't know a strategy out of this situation. The map's a huge continental map, 60 % water with 15 opponents and I'm playing as the American tribe. Even though I expanded fast at the...
