The system requirements for CIV 5 say XP SP3.I have Win XP Professional SP2.When I search for Win XP SPS 3 Update the file is 316MB and it says that it is for IT Professionals and Developers downloading and installing on multiple computers on a network. This can't be what I need,can it...

Sorry,I should have said,my operating system is XP. Terry

I've just installed Civ 3 complete again after playing Civ4 for a couple of years,just felt like a change.I want to change the resoloution to the same as my desktop. I've found a post and an entry in the FAQ on how to do this by adding KeepRes= 1 to the bottom of the ini files.Civilization3.ini...

Thanks for your reply Legionsteve.I do have BTS so will give it a try. Terry

I have always played Civ 4 vanilla on a standard size map at normal speed and Noble difficulty.After reading some posts,I decided to try Huge map with Marathon speed and left the difficulty setting at Noble. I realised very quickly that I loved these new settings it's like a new...

Thanks for your help.I did as you said and everything is OK. terry

I've just installed the BTS 3.19 patch and everything works fine. Then on the main page of this site I read in the news section about all the new patches and upgrades for mods to make them compatible with the 3.19 patch.I followed the link for Rhye's and fall of civilization for BTS 3.19 which...

Same problem here.But only in BTS after installing patch 3.13. Terry

If you're having trouble installing your BTS DVD,this might help you. When I tried to install BTS,it updated direct x but when it tried to update CIV 4,I got a message that the patch had failed and the installation was aborting.Two days and most of two nights later after downloading the latest...

I've sorted it now.I've made a new post re how I sorted it in case it's of help to anyone else. deepace

I'm starting this new post because nobody replied to my last one and I've tried lots of other things since I wrote it. BTS DVD won't install.It updates Direct x 9.0c then say's.....There is a newer version of CIV 4.Will install patch now.Then....the patch failed to install.Aborting...

Thanks for your reply.It's good to know that I won't lose Sevomod.That guy should get a highly paid job on CIV5. I got BTS instead of Warlords but I guess the same will apply.That's if I can eventually get the thing to install...

You have a different video card to me so I don't know how to set yours. It might make it clearer if I tell you how I set my Nividia. Right click desktop,properties,settings,advanced,GeForce 6600GT,Then tick box application controlled...

After spending most of yesterday trying to get BTS to install I still hav'nt been able to get past the message that say's 'There is a newer version of CIV 4,will install patch now' followed by the message 'Patch failed to install Aborting Installation'. I downloaded and installed...

I've had this problem since the day I installed CIV4,but fortunately it's easily sorted,at least on my setup.When I'm not Civing I'm flightsimming and have antialising set to high on my video card.I have to change this setting to application controlled before I fire up CIV otherwise I get the...
