civ 4

Hey Guys, If someone could quickly help me out here, Ive just been trying to put in some music to my game of Civ 4 for the past 6 hours. I'm stuck and confused. I've edited the Audio2DScripts.xml, the AudioDefines.xml, the GameInfoEras.xml to suit me. No typoes, nuffin. I've put in my...

I downloaded Earth 2010 and Giant Earth Scenario (the one with 1,100 cities), both of which are BTS mods. I downloaded them, put them in BTS's mods folder, which has worked with other mods. I was able to load them (advanced : load mod) and from the Civilopedia it seems like all the data is...

This might already be a known issue, but the game across all civ 4 installations hate it if you quick load and save, in case you want a better result to an outcome. This likely do to the file integrity becoming unstable. I know some of you would shun this, because rl this or xcom that, but for...

I own the Steam version of Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword and haven't had any technical trouble since purchasing it. However, yesterday I suddenly got an error that has been preventing me from starting the game. The error reads as uch: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Program:....IV...

I'm playing with the most current version of Ashes of Erebus. What maps do you use? What maps do you recommend? What map is the closest canonical type to Erebus? I've seen tectonics recommended, but the land-sea ratio is horribly off, and the closest to anything sane is "70% land". However...

I'm new to the series, but from all I've read, Civ4 is considered the best. Give me your 5 reasons that you choose to play Civ5 over Civ4.

I don't know if this is the best place to put this thread, heck, I don't even know if it's the right one, but I figured I'd ask it here since it is the one I assume is the most active and, well, I guess that just seemed comfortable to be. When Civilization V came out a lot of people loved it...

My Steam copy of Civ 4 Beyond the Sword is experiencing hefty performance problems and has done since i first bought and installed it. These 'performance issues' i speak of include incredibly slow processing and just overall stickyness. I am using Windows 10 and it seems that this game can work...

I saw people having trouble handling a big Royal Expeditionary Force (REF), not getting enough liberty bells, or winning. I believe I have figured out the winning strategy, although it can be highly situational. Here I shall tell you how I won, and that even you can possibly learn something from...

Hello, I have long discussed creating new Citysets for CIV IV. This dream is now beginning to become a reality, however, I am unsure of where to go from here. I have begin modifying the Asian city into a new, Tibetan/Bhutanese/Nepalese inspired cityset, but mostly I created it to be used in an...

Hi everyone, I recently had a surge of nostalgy and thought I would play this good old Civilization IV, so I bought it on Amazon. The file setup.exe doesn't even open... I am asked to authorize the program to modify my computer, I agree and then nothing. I have Windows 10 64-bits on an Asus...

After I get to the menu with start/readme/exit on it and press start I hear the disc spinning for a second but nothing happens, I go into the task manager and there's nothing Civ related there. This happens on vanilla, BTS and Warlords. I've had the disc for years now, so it could very well have...

I used to mod when this game came out, on an old xp box. Well, this machine uses windows 7 and Steam to boot, and nothing I was doing that used to work... worked! I became frustrated when even following the tutorials step by step, with the most basic mod imaginable, (one copied xml file on...
