Renaming cities
The other day I wanted to play some Civ1 (haven't played for a long time). I usually go with the Amiga version (using an emulator), but I didn't want to deal with the loading times so I decided to use the DOS version (using DOSBox).
I noticed that I couldn't rename cities in the DOS version. In the Amiga version there is a rename button right next to the exit button in the city view. Is this just because I'm using an older (unpatched) DOS version or did the DOS version never have a rename option? |

Version .05 certainly has it, maybe some earlier versions too, but .01 doesn't.

Ok, thanks.
I was reading through the Civ1 FAQ: http://www.civfanatics.com/civ1/faq/civfaq2.php Even though the link for the patch is broken I managed to find the civv05.zip on another site. When extracted, is it just supposed to be one file named CIV.EXE? Should I just copy that into my Civ1 folder (it seems I have version 475.01)? |

I just tried putting the CIV.EXE in the Civ1 folder and the game runs fine, and It says that it's version 475.05. I'm able to rename cities now.
I also got the sound driver update, so now the game sounds as nice as the Amiga version. I'm one happy gamer.

Just to confirm, the v5 "update" in its original form is indeed just the exe file. Well maybe a readme (which I don't recall) or something but definitely no other data files.
