Live 4ever! Or die trying
ahh - that is your problem. Your computer is way too powerful (compared to my Dell junker) and civ knows that everyone else is seriously jealous.

hungry1987 - I feel your pain and I wasn't making fun of you ... well, maybe a very little bit. It is called sarcasm and often is hard to pick up in a new language and almost impossible in text.No my problem is, that it randomly crashes
If you want to make fun out of it, your problem. Mine is just the crashes <and what is causing it> That is what interests me, not your jealousy!
My 2 cents:No my problem is, that it randomly crashes
I have 2x Nvidia GTX275. Each of them has 1GB Ram and i play with SLI.
So there should be 2GB Ram available or am i wrong?
I experience random crashes to Desktop in the late Game (Airplaines, Mass of Ships usw.) on huge Maps with a lot of civs.
No. If I understand SLI correctly, each card processes half of the scene. This means that both cards must contain all of the models and textures.
In the end, extremely developer unfriendly peace of advice: if you see an announcement of a mod update and a download link in the announcement is incorrect, it's better to wait for one or two weeks before installing the update. Something will come up.
The blood effects are on by default. You need to disable them to make them disappear. The details are in the readme files in your BAT 2.2 folder, and in the file "No Blood.zip." Your install should have the blood effects activated automatically when you installed, unless you unzipped the No Blood.zip file and did what it said.I've just realized that I'm not seeing any blood effects with BAT 2.2, even though I didn't take any special measures to turn them off. Am I the only one?
You missed a word there ... and beat the living daylights out of someone else.Thank you for your time. Now, please go back to your game and beat the living daylights out of someone.
The blood effects are off by default. You need to enable them to make them appear. The details are in the readme files in your BAT 2.2 folder, and in the file "No Blood.zip."
To remove the blood effects from combat, simply unzip the No Blood.zip file to the BAT 2.2\Assets\XML\Misc folder and over write the Civ4EffectInfos.xml file that is there.
2. No Blood.txt - A number of people asked for a way to disable the blood effects during combat. These are the instructions on how to do that using the No Blood.zip file.

Oh jeez. It appears that I'm a moron after all. I'll check it out and have my partner upload the fixed file tomorrow night if necessary. For those of you who are brave, it requires an edit in the Civ4EffectInfos.xml file. There's a section that is commented out, just remove the <!-- and --> parts, not the stuff in between. Voila, blood effects enabled.Ok, now I'm confused and realize I wasn't hallucinating. This is what the file 'No Blood.txt' states:
This gives the impression that you don't have to manually enable the effects.

I'm sry as you pointed out, i'm no native speaker and didn't read that as sarcasmhungry1987 - I feel your pain and I wasn't making fun of you ... well, maybe a very little bit. It is called sarcasm and often is hard to pick up in a new language and almost impossible in text.
It is like a joke ...
Patient: Doctor! It hurts when I do this.
Doctor: Don't do that.
@hungry1987 - You could try disabling one of the cards so you're not using SLI. Then play a game and see if it crashes. I suspect it's simply Civ4 not able to handle that much graphic bliss.
Warning - I know next to nothing about BAT ... actually, just make that nothing. Now, with that out there ...If it isn't commented out, it should work.
