Cant patch (BTS)
Long time civ player, first time poster. So ive never bothered updating my bts before, but a friend of mine thought i should try a mod, and 3.17 was needed for it. So i try to patch but when i enter civ i see its still the old version. So then i see that for some reason some files have been added in different c: folders(like C:\Assets , C:\Warlords) etc. I really have no idea how to fix this but please halp :3

Download the patch online. If you try to do it through the game you'll never get it.

What version of Civ IV did you install?
Some versions have been patched to 3.17 already. Welcome to the Forums d3zzy.

Have you looked through the Technical Support forum?

Sounds like you have the same problem I did.
When I installed BtS it created a new directory for the expansion (Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword) under the Firaxis folder. Problem comes in because everything still runs from the original game folder under Firaxis/Sid Mier's Civilization 4/Beyond the Sword. When you install patches or mods, it will put them in the new BtS folder but the game is searching for files under Sid Meier's Civilization 4. I fixed it by copying and pasting everything from Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword (which is actually patched with 3.17 and why you're game is saying it is patched) into the unpatched Sid Meier's Civilization 4/Beyond the Sword folder. Had the same problem when I installed FfH2, just moved the mod from the new BtS folder to the BtS folder in the old directory. Last edited by Skytha; Feb 22, 2009 at 08:57 AM. |

Yeah, most people didn't when I tried to explain.... I included a picture of my directories. Files need to go in the selected folder, but they go in the "Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword" folder below it instead. In doing my own reading on the problem I think people may have different root directories depending on their game. Civ Complete owners seem to have 2k instead of Firaxis?? Not sure.
