Actually... I obviously hadn't tried it all. The solution by Melissa helped me too (thanx a lot!). What I had to do was to make this thing work. When I pressed "test" (not sure that is the exact text on the buttom) I got an reply that my setup did not support this and that. So what I did was to...

Well, I get the "initiate XML" then nothing happens except the loading screen disapears. If I check the error log in windows I get two unknown errors eac time I try to run Civ4. Have tried all suggestions here at the forums - no luck! :cry: So... from where do you get the above information? I...

Urk! I am still waiting for my copy but I have serious thoughts about cancelling my order. Why? I have a strong feeling this problem will hit me too. You wonder why? Feel free to interpret! :mad: Let's just say I have a very strong feeling that my copy will have problems on my computer and I...

A weird tribute for Sid Barret... I guess you as PF fans have heard the story that Sid himself walked into the studio as they recorded just that part of the singing. Anyways, first time I played Civ was not on a x86 machine but the old Amiga. I was stunned by joy :D Then I switched to a PC...

Well anyone can check whats out in bootlegged software, there are several Internet sites providing that service. Civ 4 is not listed. And (btw) the EU release seems to be delayed til the 4:th of november... growls. :sad: I have preordered CiV from CDwow, very good price - 299 swedish crowns...

I think girls do like playing games - just they get games with themes that interests them (like, eh... the sims). Just my 5 cents, didn't mean to dis' ya ! :cool:

Now I don't mean to jump your opinion but ... :D I may agree that backing up is indeed cheating, in a way. But then again, what should you call the fact that the AI knows about units that You would not know about if the sides were reversed? That's not AI that's cheating too, I'd say. Same...

Well, at first I also thought that the CPU was attacking me. But woe to my surprise when about 5-6 of my units moved into the city after the defenders were killed. Note: my "attacking" units don't show at all until the battle is won and they move into the city to occupy it...

I think that in every game that I have played of C3C there has occured something strange - automatic combat. I don't know if this is a known bug, looked around in these forums but found nothing (which doesn't mean a thing as the 'real' search option is turned off). Anyways, this is what happens...

Personally I'd like to see the whole corruption system rewamped. Perhaps it should be more dependent on the governement than it is now. I mean; like are the cities far away from Washington DC really corrupted? I don't think so. In old USSR perhaps that would be true (distans from Moscow then)...

What the heck is "vanilla civ"? Edit: never mind the short cuts, I got the manual now (it's for a review and some jerk had snatched it from my case! lol )

OK, my simple Q is this: Is there anywhere I can get a (more or less) complete list over the keyboard shortcuts?

Thanks for the tip! :lol:

Could someone describe the bug? Just curious... and I think it's strange they managed to scr*w this one up as it worked OK in CivIII... or didn't it?! :crazyeye:

This might have been covered before but as the search option has been disabled and I don't have time to go through all the posts... 1) Someone mentioned that the "Forbidden palace" doesnt work in Conquests or even that's it gives some form of a penalty! Is this true? 2) I just noticed...
