Surely some of you veteran civ players/programmers have thought about creating an open source engine that can run Civ 3 style parameters right?
Since its highly improbably that Civ 3 will ever get a remaster why not work together creating an OS engine for Civ 3?
Bypassing the limitations of C3C's troublesome coding and ancient engine would bring life back into the game.
An eventually we all know that modern PC updates for say windows for instance may eventually render C3C unplayable in the foreseeable future. Civ 3 may then slowly be lost in history's never ending dustbin, a distant memory to those who grew up playing it. Shouldn't Civ 3 be proudly carried by its community, never lost and never forgotten but in fact accessible to the future generations that play the new Civ games? I for one think it should be immortalized by some platform, program, or engine that optional can incorporate everyone else's mods, graphics or maps if the user so chooses to play with them.
