Found those two Indeo files, just did a search. Tried the game with the latest patch and messed around with the tutorial. It's actually pretty good and the first AI civ I encountered didn't go straight to war with me. I actually had to push them a little before they did and then numerous times...

Ok, I'll give the MGE version a try. Does anybody know where the game installs the Intel video drivers? I couldn't find them on the XP machine. Also what is the best install, the custom or the typical? I did custom and made sure everything was checked still the video and music files appear to...

How do I create that folder and where? I can't put : in a folder name either. I ended up setting up my old XP computer and the game runs fine on that. I would still like to have it running on the Windows 7 machine though. I'm also a little pissed that I'll have to get the original Civ II game...

I've tried mps civ2 which is the default directory I guess and then I put it in program files too still no patch. I wonder if you manually install the game the way I did it can't be patched? Am I missing a file that an install directly from the CD would give me to enable patches to work? The...

Does anybody know the location that the 1.3 patch needs in order to work? I had to manually install the game with Universal Extractor because the game itself wouldn't. Everything is working but I can't get the patch to work. My game is on the C drive in a folder I made myself called Civ II MGE...

Alright I need to know what directory the patch needs to install correctly. I tried running it directly in the game files and still no update. I manually installed my game in the C directory in which I made a folder called Civ II MGE. Inside that folder is the unextracted data1 cab file...

So my version is 5.2.5f. Is this the latest version of Civ II MGE? Why is the patch 1.3 and this number is different?

Alright I got the game installed using the Universal Extractor program that I found from a random topic on this site. I also applied the latest patch but I'm not sure if it worked or not since I had to do a manual install. The game itself is working but the startup audio isn't the best, the part...

Ok, so I got the game today but I can't get it to install. I can get to the install screen but I click on install and the little loading circle pops up next to my mouse but nothing happens. The circle goes away and that's it. I've tried running both the autorun and SETUP exe in Admin and...

Hi everybody. I'm thinking about picking up the original Civ in its entire DOS packaging glory. I don't have a 486 anymore though but I do have a Dell running XP with a floppy disk drive. So is it possible to get the data off of those floppies using that machine and then transfer everything via...

Hello fellow Civ players. So I recently won Civ II MGE complete in an Ebay auction and I have some questions. First I've read that the MGE version is different from the original Civ II in that some music was taken out and the AI is more aggressive. I've also seen that the MGE version can be...
