    Resolution, ratio, GoG, and Civ4 in 2024

    Atsab, just a minor clarification of f1rpo's post: To use BUG you need to be using the BTS (Beyond The Sword) expansion. BUG is an acronym for BTS Unmodified Gameplay, since it only makes changes in the UI, all of which improve the UI greatly, but no changes in how the game is played. Also...

    CivFanatics social media survey

    I don't use social media at all. I consider them places to get your personal info stolen, get hacked, and get harrassed. I block all social media sites and have my email set to auto-delete anything that comes from any of them. I also use software that audits all incoming data to my computer...

    Broken Images

    Thanks! I used the link in your post. Now the screenshots show up again. I have had that problem with Firefox 48 not recognizing new certificates before and added the exception, including logging in here. Since I had already made the exception for CFC and was not seeing the warning message...

    I have logged in with the newer Mac OS using both Firefox and Safari. Images are fine using either one. However, I would really like the images to work like they did a few days ago, so I can use my preferred system. What got changed that broke the older version of Firefox?

    Broken Images

    I'm using an older Mac OS. The version of Safari for it can't access CFC at all. I do have a newer Mac running a later OS, although not the latest. I don't like the newer OSes, so I mainly use it for online sites that I can't access with my preferred OS. I will start the newer one up and see...

    Why is CIV4 still the best civ game?

    Play the Beyond the Sword (BTS) expansion. Add the BUG Mod to it. BUG does not change play at all but enhances the interface so you can play more easily, which removes several tedious ways to use interface without it. A lot of people also like to use BAT which includes BUG but does make some...

    anyone still playing multiplayer?

    There is a multiplayer forum here. I would suggest going there and asking if anyone is interested. If so, they probably know how to do it now. Of course, if you know people who would like to play multiplayer, you could always set up a play by email game with them.

    How to play civ 4 on windows 10

    You can load Civ IV from the CD but you can't run it because starting with Windows 10, and with updates to earlier versions of Windows after Windows 10 was issued, the copy protection function that checks the CD to be sure it is legit was removed because it allowed a back door to hackers. If...

    Most important technology? (Ancient Era)

    As for the AIs building Privateers, unless it is different on Diety, which I don't play, they build them. I almost always play on maps that have islands of some sort. AI privateers always show up. They don't use them very well but they do build them. I recall one game long ago when I already...

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    "Forums" is the top category, to put it a more accurate way, it is the top folder with Feedback, OT, Civ 6, Civ 5, etc folders within it. When you click Civ 5 you are choosing the Civ 5 specific forums: General..., Ideas..., Strategy..., etc. By clicking Civ 5 and then Forums, you are choosing...

    New CivFanatics logo Ideas created by AI

    I prefer the current "old" logo. All of these new ones are much too cluttered. Just because something is new does not mean it is better. As it is written: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
