Monado, Thank you for your detailed reply. I will try to update my graphics card by taking my laptop to a wifi hotspot sometime (I'm unfortunately stuck on dialup). :( If that doesn't solve the color problem, no big deal. I realize that other people cant even get the game to WORK in the...

heh... the same thing happened to me with civ 3, except the difference was my CD had a big crack in it. To avoid this from happening with civ 4, I have a backup copy of the game on 2 CDs and don't even use the originals to install or play the game, I simply got the NO-CD patch. It is always a...

Has anyone had this problem with Civ 4 (version 1.61)? Units should be the color of each nation... for example, if I'm playing as India my caravels should have purple sails. However in my game when I'm playing as India my caravels have red sails. So does every other nation. Other than this...

lmao that made me laugh for some reason when i read it :lol:

I have an Integrated Graphics Card that has absolutely zero problems with Civ 4. ATI Radeon Xpress 200 (I think) works perfect with the game and its only 64 MB. I cant figure out why this cheap and seemingly crappy video card works fine when other people have spent hundreds of dollars on...

When I am playing multiplayer, everytime me and my opponent lose connection I get the voting screen, vote what to do next. Well whenever I try to exit the game my computer just stops working and I cant shut down except for the cold reboot method that I dislike doing. Does anyone else have these...

I just got Pitboss yesterday, but I dont really understand something. Me and my friend would play 1v1 games via Ip to Ip thru the old, civ 4 interace. I would think it would be better for us to do this with pitboss, but I dont see any menu or form or anything for an ip address. In Civ4's main...

:( Darn, I liked to know if id win instantly. My box would always turn to 0.0 right when I battled, and then I would slam my fist against the desk :P

I have a legal copy of civ4; paid 52 bucks for it in Walmart. But I REALLY dont like playing the game with the CD in. I am too lazy to get the CD and put it in the drive every time I play it :lol: Also, when I had civilization 3, I constantly used the CD to play it. Eventually it wore out and...

I can play IP to IP fine, but everytime me and the other person lose connection i get to the voting screen. It works fine until I click a button, tyhen the background music starts playing and nothing works. I keep having to manually reboot my pc. I have absolutely no other problems with the...

Thanks a lot for your info man, i appreciate that someone replied to my question. I was playing by IP address whgen it froze. I'll be sure to try everything, I never thought about unplugging USB things that I dont even use. Ill also try to clear the cache and go through the fix it list .Again...

does it run fine on single player? if so i have the same problem

I found one exactly when the game crashed for heres what it says: Hanging application Civilization4.exe, version 1.5.2.1736, hang module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000. I really dont know what any of this means though and im not sure it will help at all :(

My computer has run civ 4 flawlessly on single player. The frame rate is great and it never freezes. However, I tried multiplayer and everytime someone im playing against loses connection with me or leaves my entire computer locks up. I have posted my dxdiag file. My computer isnt top of the...

Thats exactly what I did. I was originally building it in my capital but forgot that I needed Oxford University, so I changed it to a different city. It built it for a few turns but then converted it to gold. I wish Firaxis would fix this problem with another patch, but well have to dish out...
