I've downloaded and installed 2126, but have a slight problem, no text is displayed other than things like column headings etc. If you hover over the tip appears ok with text. The World Map and minimap work correctly. I can uninstall 2126 and reinstall 2108 and all is OK, but when I put 2126 back the text disappears again. I have redownloaded 2126 incase it was corrupt but still get the same problem. Windows ME.

Odd. My copy works fine, and doesn't show spoiler info for MP anymore. Thanks!
Adding on to zyxy, the listing of saves works for me (XP - the culprit is probably the OS). Thanks for the new version!

Thought the OS was a likely culprit, hence I mentioned it. This new version does appear to report the trades correctly now - I checked this by hovering over to get the tip!

Hello.
I use Win XP pro SP1.
Beside the problem I mentioned, everything works fine, and yes, I do get the extra button.

OK - it should load the saves automatically. If you don't use the "file" button, does it load the first save up? If you do hit the 'file' button, does it automatically find all the files for Civ3, PTW & C3C?
As a random thought - is your PC's clock / calender set to the correct date?

Say you are playing for a UN Victory.........Your plan is to build the UN and then get a majority of your rivals to vote for you and voila.....you Win.
Only 1 snag.......Let's say you're playing against a large number of AI Civs in PTW. None of them have more than 25% of the Population or Territory. So, the Big question is: Who will be my rival in the UN Election. The Answer is: The Civ with the largest population.
Does PTW or CivAssist II show me, notwithstanding Spoiler info, which AI Civ has the Largest Population? (I can get a minimum Population value by looking at the city sizes of ALL the AI's...........but this is a bit tedious!)
It would be useful to know the MINIMUM population sizes of the other civs, based on the number of citizens in each of their cities.......assuming it's possible to get a current Territory Map from each Civ............which would normally be a Freebie, providing you're not at War with them. I realize that this info would not guarantee that the Civ has the highest population (viz. if it has a number of cities about to increase in size), but the probability of it being correct is high.
Any help would be much appreciated.

@EMan
The game counts citizens, not population, when determining who will be the other candidate(s). So if you have a full world map, counting city sizes on the map will give you a 100% accurate idea of who your opponent is.

@Theoden: Thanks for the heads-up.
It would still be useful for CiVAssist II to show who the other candidate would be though, no?

I fiddled with Civ Assist II on my XP machine and was very impressed. It has more data in it than I know what to do with! But, uh, I primarily play on a PC running Win ME. Is there a way to get it to work? Everything is kinda blank, like in Furiey's post.

Hmmm does seem like it's ME then. I still had the download for the previous version on my PC so I reinstalled that as that works OK (apart from the known bugs) on ME. Perhaps ainwood would make that version available until there's another version.
Just curious, but since you [Ainwood] were a betatester do you have any plans for a CivAssist for CivIV? Sorry, but I've become addicted to CAII and find myself wanting to run it everytime I start up a CivIV game.
