Only if you dont have 1.29, and you are still running CivIII. Cheating is dumb. Besides, turns take forever when you can see the entire map.

Thou shalt NOT write in ALL CAPS!

I know you've already been told this by a moderator, so I'm really annoyed by now ...

The *multi* save-name cheat was fixed in Civ3 v1.17f (IIRC). It has not been available since that time, except to unpatched players.

Is there a way to see less and perhaps make the turns quicker. I think I may have over done things with my current map

 

[Smellincoffee]

In the preferences, you can turn off "show our manual moves" "show our automated moves", etc.

Things do seem to go quicker if you don't automate workers at all. And one thing you can do to speed up things when the AI is moving units is to hold down the shift key.

I havent tried this, could be real handy. What exactly does it do?????

 

[superslug]

As long as you hold the key down, the game temporarily considers the units to be shown but not animated, I think. Whatever it does in the programming, they move a lot faster. I don't do it during enemy movements, but when I have allies just moving across my territory or their stupid workers are right outside my border, it comes in handy.

 

[TheNiceOne]

I usually keep the shift key down almost all the time a unit moves, both during my own turn and during enemy turns. What it does is to move all units at a much higher speed than normal. I.e., if it normally takes 5 seconds to display the movement of a unit from A to B, then it takes 1 second with shift held down.

The shift key? What a cool tip. Thanks!

 

[useless]

thanks for the tip!

 

[Zcylen]

cheating is pointless...where's the fun?
I never cheat

 

[NeonInfusion]

or you could get a better computer for faster turns

 

[Dishpan_Hans]

The only time cheating is fun is when you've given up on a game, like in Civ 2. I'd just plop gobs of Barbarian units in enemy territory, give them warships (which the computer didn't know how to use for barbarians). Or I'd creat my own units and conquer the capital of a large rival and watch their empire split.
