Argh... One day I have to learm more about shell scripts, there has to be a way to get this chore automated.

Turns out VD is the culprit, so probably not the LHs then? Come to think of it, is Civ4 itself case-sensitive? I ran into a whole lot of trouble with another game, finally turns out all that was preventing me from using mods with that game was the sloppyness of authors who'd capitalize folder...

Ok, no luck there then. It's never just so simple as a missing folder for me... Any idea why DoC would relate differently to DirectX than original RFC? That's the really puzzling bit.

Running the modmod under Linux/WINE results in "init error: error loading shader libraries" while the game itself and also basic rhye's and fall runs flawlessly. Any ideas? DirectX-related probably, but why ffs does it only pop up here and now? [12/30/13 12:54:48] - Running wine-1.4.1...

Anyone tried running Rhye's and Fall of Civilizations BTS? For me that's a sure CTD. fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8. fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8. fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8. wine: Unhandled page fault on...

Thank you, works. Had to turn off project movies though, which is a bit of a pity, but they bounced me back to some twisted kinda fullscreen mode. Anyway, beats having to set up a vm just for one game.

Is it possible to get smac to run in a normal window? If so, how do I do that? tia, mm

You're welcome. :) Actually I do everything more than gaming, all I want is a satisfying Civ4-experience during waiting times and when on the train in that regard. SSD is tempting, no, better make that two (maybe possible, mSATA and an 1,8"), as is UMTS, an IPS-Panel and some extra battery...

Usually one of the following will have the right rig: nbwn.de, lapstore.de, thinkspot.de More savings if you don't mind keyboard layouts. After all these years, who needs to look anymore? I'd like something really exotic, just for the giggles...

X201(s) it is then. Thanks all for your input. And that suspicion is well justified... ;) But I'll probably go for something refurbished and save some €.

No, sorry, but Edge is a no-go. The keyboard doesn't appeal to me and they are too heavy. I'm rather set on the x-series, it suits all my non-gaming needs (and it is very well documented, if I don't ike the display I know where to get replacements, if it turns out I suddenly need 3g I can add it...

Hi all! :) I was thinking of finally buying Civ5, but after reading the steam thread I dropped that plan. That piece of §$%&#!? is not going to happen. So instead of buying a new gaming computer with insanely high specs (Bethesda lost a paying customer too, same reasons), I will get me a new...

Well, thanks to anyone, who shared his/her steam-experience here. After reading some dozens of random pages I decide not to buy the game. Steam may be a good thing for multiplayer-shooters or whatever, but I think it is totally unsuited to my style of playing Civ. Furthermore I have a...

Well, you got a point there. Btw, we're not allowed to eat missionaries even with the most barbaric civics... bug? :D

Hm... ok, I got it now. I'm a little old school and usually move units by numbers pad. That horse archer really seems to do better than it should when i rightclick on the city two tiles away. I haven't played a game of unmoded civ for ages, so I can't tell wether the bug is with RFC or not, but...
