Well, I am a bit perplexed by the finite comments about Civ4. If it said on the back of the box 'This game is perfect and gauranteed to please evryone' then i would not be so puzzled. Civ4 is a massive upgrade from all the previous offerings, and i have played EVERY version of civ ( incl...

I wish :lol: . I tried the patches and downloading new controls from A.T.I.all to no avail, but there was no change, i could run the tutorial but it would all go black when i tried to create a new game. Thats all history now, this 6600 card rocks:goodjob:

Yep, i really feel for the people who can't get the game running due to conflicts within their system, my card was an ATI 9200SE. I had waited too long and nothing was gonna stop me loading and running civ4. The new card is a peach, and over the space of a year it will cost less than 30p a day.I...

Like you didn't know already :lol: But today it has arrived on my p.c., i had it given to me as a christmas present ( a loooong wait that one ) but i've got a Raedon graphics card. After a third crash and re-install and one look at the forums, resplendent with festive tales of ATI conflicts...

WOW, i'm soooo humbled. I finished the game but didn't win. I guess the main problem was not decaring war on india soon enough. I did go to war with them and france but never managed to hold a city for long enough and twice i miss-clicked on 'raise city' instead of install 'govener' so my...

As this is my first gotm and having read previous threads i decided that my overriding strategy was to be aggressive and expand.Usually i build, trade, expand and then declare war at a moment i choose, not really giving a hoot what the AI does to my rep. Ooooeeerrrr :crazyeye: No one else on...

I'm in on this one, my first gotm :crazyeye: Whoever is used to coming last, move on up dude!!!

Good news cabrone's...it's up and running and it was as straight forward as i originaly imagined it to be.. :blush: :blush: I am running an american version ( didn't know that ) and downloaded the correct patch, and it loaded exactly as you said it would.. Mucho gracias amigos...

aah..... wotan this would make sense. I have uninstalled all civ progs and re-installed them now due to the above error ( it happened to civ3 prog as well ). But could someone who knows answer these lil' q's for me? :blush: :blush: 1. do i need to create a new folder in saves/dir to hold...

oh dear :blush: I have followed your steps so far but my computer won't recognise my ptw disc now :blush: :blush: 1 I saved the patch download and then ran it. Install wizard did it all for me. 2 I downloaded game save ( square icon with lil' icons inside) into temp file. File...

Alan, thats looks as easy as i THOUGHT it would be, I will give it a go later today. Let you know how it goes......... :crazyeye: Thanks for the reply cabrone', :beer:

Bon daos amigos. I am new on the forum but have been playing civ in many formats for many years and would really like to give gotm a go. I cannot understand why i can't get a scenario to load. I have been trying for over a month and writing this is my last resort :blush: :blush: I am not...
