It is a long time since I visited here.
In Japan, We also have translated DyP2.02x in Japanese,
and Japanese players can play this mod with ease.
By the way,some Japanese players found a bug about Cure for
Cancer, which occured when the wonrder was accomplished.
At this time, our PC is freeezed.
Today I found that the trouble was concerned with "Cure for Cancer.pcx" .
If a player want to avoid the bug, he(or she) have to
rewrite "Cure for Cancer.pcx" to the same one in the vanilla
Civ3.
If you don't know about this bug, please make the best use of
my information.

It is in beta testing at the moment. Beta 5 right now which seems to be quite OK so you can hope for a quite soon release. I am not an official part of the team so don't quote me on that though
One issue seems to be linked to the different patches and what the team expect from it (changes and corrections).
I play mine as a Conquest - all I did was save the bic file as a biq file and edited the pediaicons file to contain the #ANIMNAME_PRTO stuff. It works ok. It was the 0.91 version of the game for Vanilla Civ I converted, I'd not updated it to the PTW version.
I'm curious about what governments people are utilizing and what causes them to switch between them.
Switching to Monarchy as soon as possible is a no-brainer, but beyond that ...???
I'm sure it's been discussed, but I can't find it.

I like Constitutional Monarchy, myself. It's my 'goal' gov.
It's been a while since I've played, I don't recall all the govs off the top of my head. I'd switch out of Cheifdom into Despotism as quick as I could, I do remember that. And then on to democracy, I think it was.

If you stay peaceful democracy is the only choice until the late middle ages, because its the only government having trade bonus.
If you go warmongering, there are more alternatives-depending on how the war goes and how your empire looks like.Its definetly a good idea to switch from monarchy (former despotism) to republic; it is better in nearly every way.

@Shirokuma: Thanks for the info, but it's actually only a bug in the Japanese DYP translation, I believe. One player posted the error in our forums, and apparently the Japanese DYP 2.02x looks for the Cure for Cancer graphics in a folder that doesn't exist, which is:
C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\CivilizationIII\CIV3PTW\Scenarios\DyP2\Art\Wonder Splash\file\Cure for Cancer.pcx
This means that there must be a typo in the Pediaicons.txt for japanese DYP 2.02x - in the Won_Splash section the lines
#WON_SPLASH_BLDG_Cure_For_Cancer
Art\Wonder Splash\file\Cure for Cancer.pcx
should be changed to
#WON_SPLASH_BLDG_Cure_For_Cancer
Art\Wonder Splash\Cure for Cancer.pcx
That is as far as I can tell without having a Japanese Civ3 installed, and also without being able to actually locate the Mod download anywhere

Hello.
Love DYP. Great Stuff.
Just running up the score on a game when I hit an exception error.
The C++ Debugger says: "Symbol 'this' not found.
Have the SETI wonder and the Cure for Cancer one away.
Attaching a save file to help.
Thanks for this truly amazing ad-on.

Hi Waldorf,
Are you playing the Vanilla Civ3 version (1.01r) or the Play The World version (2.02x)?

I'll confirm the bug in the English version.
Symptom:
Event causing the mod load Cure for Cancer-splash crashes the game (or jam or something, dont remember).
Fix:
Copy any other wonder splash over the CIV3PTW\Scenarios\DyP2\Art\Wonder Splash\Cure for Cancer.pcx
Environment:
Windows XP
PlayTheWorld 1.27f patch
DYP2.02x_Full_PTW.exe (85 464 985 bytes)
CIV3PTW\Scenarios\DyP2\Art\Wonder Splash\Cure for Cancer.pcx (239 164 bytes)
Wonder if size of the splash is hint: its considerable larger than vanilla PTW:s 93 835 bytes.
According to cygwin's 'file' command:
* Cure for Cancer_vanilla.pcx:
PCX ver. 3.0 image data bounding box [0, 0] - [319, 319], 8-bit image, 320 x 320 dpi, RLE compressed
* Cure for Cancer_crash.pcx:
PCX ver. 3.0 image data bounding box [0, 0] - [319, 319], 3 planes each of 8-bit colour, 320 x 320 dpi, RLE compressed
Of all PCX files in the mod/vanilla PTW, only DYP's CfC has '3 planes' thing..

Right, that is a bug alright - the file is using 16 million color palette instead of 256 color palette. Thanks.
I just got confused because of the other (??) bug being reported on our own forum the same day and from the error description there, I couldn't find anything wrong.
Let that be a reminder to always provide as detailed a bug description as possible, if you want the bug fixed

I asked this in this other thread and someone told me to ask again here, so I'm askin'!
I just bought Civ III PTW (v. 1.27f) about a week and a half ago and discovered that a lot of the available mods are already included. Unfortunately, the most interesting one I've looked at (thus far), "Double Your Pleasure", seems to be missing a lot of graphics. I've looked at http://civ3.bernskov.com to see if the graphics were available there, but I can't seem to find them (or perhaps it's called by a name I am not expecting to see). It might helpful to know how to tell what version came with the game, but there doesn't seem to be any notation in the scenario screen to help on that account.
I have three questions:

I have three questions:
- What version of DYP comes with Civ III PTW v. 1.27f?
- What file(s) do I need to download to get the missing graphics?
- Where can I find these files?
- How do I install them?
- Are there any updated/alternate mods to this mod that I should be looking at?
- What do you think of the DYP mod?
[/list=1]
Okay, maybe more than three questions.

P.S.: Do I really have to download that huge 80+ meg file? That's around 7-10 hours at my connect speed when the lines aren't noisy (and they usually are).

SSgtBaloo, I may not e up to date with the latest news (Isak is, and probably others), but I can tell you that you do need to do the full download. The version on the CD is stripped to eliminate potential copyright problems. Sorry, but it's worth the wait. I recommend using a download manager that allows you to pause and resume. GetRight is a good choice IMO.
As for the details, I'd think you can find most of that on http://civ3.bernskov.com - Isak can certainly fill you in on the newest stuff.
I think DyP is the best Civ3 mod there is
But beware, you won't want to go back to the original ever after trying DyP. The original is simply too lame.

If you can get a copy of Play the World, you might want to check out the DYP mod pack for it. Here is a link to a current Succession Game being played with that mod pack for you to sample some of the new flavors being presented.
