Civ3 1.29f Patch Coming This Friday!

I would really encourage everyone not to view V1.29 as the Final patch for CIV3.
Every new patch has revealed additional bugs and exploits that desperately need to be fixed, sort of like peeling back the layers of a shrek.
This will probably be the last major content patch for CIV3 since it gets into the crossover period with PTW already in the production mill.
There will be some fairly major bugs that will show up in the scenario editor one we try to load things into CIV3 and PTW.
I have a list of about 15 known bugs that I have not even submitted yet because they effect things like aircraft carriers and advanced technologies that rarely influence gameplay because no one ever bothers to play the games out that far once you realize your score is lower the longer you play the game.
If they are goind to declare that they will official stop fixing bugs, then we will have to wait 6 months for the fair use and reasonable response times to expire and then start hacking into the code to fix the unresolved bugs. Residual bugs are not a game design perogative protected by copyright.

Ummm, not meaning to threadjack, but could you point me to the appropriate section of copyright law that says this is legal?
I dislike existing copyright law as much as the next computer geek, but until it is changed, it is the law. Hacking their code in six months, or six years, or even six decades, is still illegal (provided you distribute your "fixes", at least).

I demand them to put in some type of function that allows easier resource finding. I demand that. I know they won't put it in, but I demand it.
PS-Since my demand is obviously never going to be fulfilled, can someone help me fulfill it? Like helping me find that mod that makes resources easier to find? As in coal?

For those that may have forgotton (or never knew) what is and isn't included in this patch, see this post ....

Every indication from what Firaxis has said before is that scenario editing will be made possible with the next patch. So, I assume that placing cities and units (as well as other fun stuff) will be in this patch.
As for *demanding* that resources be easier to find. . . what?
Just press the "hide junk" key for the map (not real term, can't remember it). . . this allows you to see under all cities/units/improvements. I think it CTRL-SHIFT-M. You can then scroll around and see all the resources.
Try, you know, reading the manual, FAQs, and the game options before making *demands* of a company that has already put out a wonderful game, and supported it with several patches.

Finally, after expecting it for a while it comes out. If it has the editor changes you can rest assured i am going to make true zelda, EQ, and maybe even mario scenarios with it.

RedBaron635, a tank will continue to die with a spearman, occasionally.
Mod it if you don't like so, giving more attack and defense for the 2nd age, even more for the 3rd age units, and a lot more for the last age units.
This will make things more realistic.

I have a question. When i tried to install patch 1.21f Civ3 wont open. I think its because my civ is a copied version (i lost my original copy when I moved house and wasnt gonna shell out another £40!!!lol) and requires a "no CD crack" to run it. It didnt recognise the original crack once the new patch was installed and it kept asking for the CD, even when it was in! Do you think the same thing will happen with the new patch (including the scenario editor).If so do you think there will be a crack out soon cos i cant find one for the 1.21f patch. I MUST have the scenario editor!!!

Every patch has it's own crack.
Did you have the crack for your current version? Make sure of it!

Well it is possible for a spearman to defeat a tank. They just shove their spear into the viewslits of the driver & commander and stab them until they are dead! And probably to finish the job off, they'll push the tank into a nearby coast tile or river so the occupants drown! Even with the modern tanks you can probably break the acrylic viewports with enough force and do the same thing.
