I have 2048-2048 (fixed 2gb swap file on drive D where Windows is, and civ4 on E). If you have slow-downs or visual bugs, increasing it will not help. If you have CTDs, setting something like 3gb-3gb fixed size might help.

Current version of the fix helped almost noone with Ti/Mx cards. Probably the next one will.

I am happy for you
Look for an update though...

Your card is PCI and that's why it has no AGP... Well, it's pretty low-end I must say, so only next version of the fix should work fine with it (can't promise anyway).

You definitely shouldn't alt-tab during loading with 'insane_mode = 1', but if it also fails for 'insane_mode = 0'... I will check the function pointed by the offset you have given. Thanks for the help!

Please check this thread frome something like page 17. I think you might have AGP off. Just your video memory size shouldn't cause such trouble.

If you are playing in windowed mode, this might be caused by some graphics-intensive application in background. Flash banner for example. If you are going full-screen this might be due to alt-tabbing. In any case setting 'insane_mode = 0' can solve these problems.

Thanks

If even your BIOS does not have it, then probably you don't have it... Probably this is due to PCI-Express card. I'm not yet acquainted enough with PCI-E technology to have a clue on answers about AGP vs. PCI-E, especially with my fix. All I can say for now is the thing I am saying to everyone on last 2 pages: the update might fix it just because it's effects will have a little different nature.

The globe view will be fixed in the sense that it won't be anymore slower if you had it faster before the fix. There is no code yet which will make "Disable Buildings in Globe View" to actually work. This will come either in installer release or in the next release; this thing should make it faster then it was before.

Yes, Firaxis knows that - I saw some posts by Soren on other not-so-popular forums. Currently they consider it as a "stop-gap" solution until they release their own memory-saving solution. I don't know if they are bluffing or not... the message appeared around 10th December, so it weakens the strength of Soren's claim (by 10th my fix was in full force on this forum).

No, you should apply these changes to 'Harkonnen.ini' file - it's one of the files extracted from .zip (or directly downloaded via alternative link in post #1). 'Civ4.ini' (in case you want to access it, though not necessary with my fix) can be found this way: just double click '_Civ4Config' shortcut in Civiliation4 folder - the folder where you put my 3 files.

As for now, setting 'vid_mem_usage = 50' (or 55) might solve this issue or make it less frequent. Another possible solution is restarting the game once it happens - it should delay this problem several turns further. As long-run solution I can suggest subscribing this thread to get intermediate release notification from me to test if this problem becomes solved. Thank you.

Double-clicking savegames (including autosaves) is as minor bug with current version of the fix; it is solved, but not yet available for download while I work on other issues. Just start the game (civ4 shortcut) and click 'Load Game' from game's menu, then select your last autosave FROM GAME MENU and it should work.

Wow! Very strange bug indeed... I am personally using primarily keyboard it was ok all the time. Perhaps you were running in windowed mode (not necessary actually), and it just loosed input focus. Try clicking with left mouse button somewhere on the map (I mean big part of the screen), and see if keyboard works again. It would sooner start drawing circles on your monitor than affect keyboard or sound...
Thank you for your kind words in your 2nd paragraph!
At least I have all your "thank you-s", so it's not an entire waste of time... When I won my 1st olimpiad in maths being nothing before, it was a concept of success, and it changed my life. Today I've got a concept of recognition which will change it either... It means more than cash just because it's direct application into pleasure of life (like eating tasty food is another form of direct application for those who like it). Even in terms of cash, you won't make a single dollar without a granule of belief in success, and this belief has risen tremendously over these days. So thanks to
everyone!

Freezing mouse looks like some overheating, but since you've got this later with less memory usage (my fix), it is probably somethign with motherboard, rather than with video. Just mouse cursor is very very hardware thing... At least with my PC, frozen mouse means frozen everything, even keyboard. Whole Windows might be kneeled when mouse pointer still rolls over, even animated and with XP shadow.

Wonders movies will probably become better with the update. So far I am glad that major issues are now ok with your system.

Wow!
Thanks for pointing that, I wasn't expecting anything except official patches and GOTM events to appear there.

Thank you!
P.S: For the 4th time writing big replies in notepad first saves me a lot of nerves when the forums refuses to get reply
