My problems were solved by downloading the GOG version for some weird reason. Anyway, no need to waste money on Civ6 now. Huzzah...

UPDATE: In my frustration I decided to download the game from GOG to see if that would make a difference, and I'm pleased to announce it does! Booted up the game and installed BAT first go. Weird! Alright, my journey into deity can continue...

Nooo! Don't say that! Lemon Merchant has my hopes up at the moment. I really hope my problems can be solved because I'd hate to say goodbye to this franchise. I refuse to play a new Civ game until it can at least be worthy of standing next to 4.

HOPE!! (edit: do you use the Steam version?) My specs are: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz (12 CPUs), ~3.7GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 16384MB RAM Windows 10 Home 64-bit (10.0, Build 17134) (17134.rs4_release.180410-1804) What do you say to this?

So basically Civ 6 is still not as good as Civ 4 is the general gist I'm getting here?

Civ 4 Fanatics, I'm regretfully announcing that until my request has been fulfilled I will no longer be playing Civ 4 :(. That being said, I still have the Civ itch that needs to be scratched. I'm thinking it might be time to make the switch to Civ 6 but I want to know what Civ 4 veterans...

CivFanatics, I humbly request that one or more of you so inclined take up the challenge of creating a patch for BTS that will allow a high-end Windows 10 gaming rig to run the game without issues. 2K have noted the problem and forwarded it to the development team, but I'm not holding my...

Thanks for the interest s.bernbaum. I've done that, I've also tried manually adjusting the screen size in the .ini file (didn't work) and it still crashes to desktop when I go to change it in game. The "suggestion(s)" they refer to was me requesting a patch. I'm not holding my breath, does...

Did you do any re-jigging to get Civ 4 Steam version working on your your Windows 10 PC, if so, what did you do?

Help has arrived!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! No, but occasionally I'll see the correct loading bar. My problem goes deeper too, the game thinks my high-end gaming rig doesn't meet specs and sets to resolution and graphics to minimum. When I try to adjust these the game crashes to...

CivFanatics, Has anyone successfully got BTS running on a high-end Windows 10 PC with mods? If so, how did you do it?

Computer Savvy CivFanatics, I've recently bought a new gaming PC, and have just re-installed BTS. I've installed BAT 4.1 and it shows up in the load a mod menu in game, but when I actually go to play the mod isn't functioning. I'm thinking this could be a Windows 10 issue as I've been googling...

Hey all, thanks for the interest. I didn't save my game, so doing it as you suggest is still an option. Would you mind extrapolating why growth is more important in this situation? Does everyone else agree? Very self evident now, thankyou! Awesome to know, thankyou! That would be so awesome...

Hey Anysense, thanks for the interest. Warrior first is a no brainer when you break it down like that, thanks! Would you mind expanding on that some more? Okay, that's manageable. I'm hoping that doesn't happen, but I guess that's one thing skirmishers have going for them...

Hey Fippy, Thanks for the interest. What's the average date for barbs to start spawning on deity? My thinking was I could get some preemptive roads down (potentially towards my second city), would that be a waste?
