    Playing on LAN, PC and Mac

    Hi All I'm trying to play against my housemate over our LAN. I'm playing on a PC and he's a little more flash with a mac. The version number for Mac is 1.0.1.166, and on my pc is 1.0.1.167.... Is there a way to move mine back to his version so we can play? Cheers

    Error when opening modbuddy. Have i made a simple mistake?

    Hi guys, I've solved the problem. For me it was because I had steam installed on one drive and visual studio on another. I put them on the same drive and the problems solved. Hopefully this will solve the problem for anyone else who may encounter this issue. Please move this to a more...

    Error when opening modbuddy. Have i made a simple mistake?

    Hi All I'm going to make a mod, but am encountering a problem with the modbuddy. I've searched about but couldn't find anything about this so thought I'd see if anyone here has experienced the same problem and knows the solution. I've installed the CiV SDK through steam, and the visual studio...

    Just played my first FFH game

    Thanks, I will do. I've just had a look at that condition, and I'm going to need to produce great prophets en masse? Sounds like a challenge... Whenever I click on a scenario from the scenario tab, I crash to desktop. I think this is a well known issue (I also had an issue with wizards looking...

    Just played my first FFH game

    Hi All Just played my first FFH game and WOW, what an amazing mod. CiV to me has lost a bit of its flavor compared to other civ's. The total realism mod reignited it for a while but this takes it the whole way. Truely amazing job on this guys and thanks for all the effort you've put in...

    Run on an mac mini?

    Hey, My friend wants to buy cIV for the mac, (I've got a pc) and I'm not sure if he can run it. I'm a bit confused with whether he can run it or not, and I'm unable to find it anywhere in these threads, so sorry if its a repeat. He's got a Mac Mini, bought about a year ago, I know it has...

    A different idea to promotions

    I played a recent game with the TR mod on the earth map with China. Suddenly I had a promotion available and I was considering whether to go for the woodsman or the hills benefit one. This made me think it would be a good idea to have promotions based on tiles to upgrade automatically when a...

    [mod] Warlords: Total Realism Gold

    Just thought I had to send a quick post. CiV seemed to be lacking something special that the other 3 had, it just wasn't as fun as the others. Warlords added very little for me and after a few hours the box joined CiV back on the shelf. This mod has definately brought that special thing back...

    Capturing the sistine chapel

    Hey guys, just started playing Civ again asd I have some time free at the moment. I captured the sistine chapel, but didn't appear to get the 11 (i think) culture that it gives to that city. Is it because I captured it, or because I havent researched theology? The city's out of revolt now and...

    More than two colours on a National Flag?

    Hey man. Havent tried anything like this myself, but theres a file in the creation and customisation section about making your own civilization, including making the flag. It may not be it but it says something about making something all black instead of all white so it uses your picture...

    Keeping up with the AI on monarch

    It really is border cities you should focus on isnt it? Just tried this and got a little obsessed with the mali capital timbuktu, a holy city with stonehenge with walls and on a hill. He didnt have iron (I did) so thought I had my targetm how hard could it be. Lets just say my once miles and...

    New to Civ IV

    unhealthyness is solved by resources such as corn, wheat etc (little red cross in a white circle will show that it gives health), aquaducts give +3 health and a few others. Maybe try and trade in some of the health giving resources from another civilization?

    New to Civ IV

    Could be one of a few problems, although its hard to know without more information. What difficulty are you playing on? Are the cities happy? What improvements have you built with the workers? Farms on useable land will increase food, as will windmills on hills although depending on your goals...

    Does "play now" generate random map or pick one from the stocks?

    I've had exactly the same thing when I first got the game. Me and my friend were playing together as the same civ (not touching hotseat until the patch), you get some interesting disagreements doing things this way. Man with the mouse nearest him= man with most control (almost got me to know all...
