You can download either a 180x180 or a 140x140 earth map in the map section.

I'm using your mod with vanilla civ and when I used a bombard to fire at a city I got a strange message. It was one of those gray pop ups that usually say "such and such improvement destroyed". This one went completely across the screen and had a bunch of garbage characters and some text mixed in. If you are already aware of this, sorry to post it again.

@Skullbones: We haven't had that reported yet - are you using v.0.91 of the mod and Civ3 version 1.29f ? And did you install the mod after installing the patch?

Isak: No, i have v.90, yes and yes. I made a scenerio to try and recreate it with a stack of bombards against a city but I haven't seen it again. The text looked like something the foreign or trade advisor would say. 
I guess it was probably just a strange fluke.

@Skullbones: I hope it was a fluke, but if you see it again, please send me the autosaves or a screenshot with the text. TIA.

the last 6 tests i did i got one decnt start.
this was a plains start but with not resources near by so though i grew nicely i had no iron copper or other building bcks to build power with
some thoughts not nearly enough iorn or copper on world map
in last 6 games NONE of my races were anywhere near a source of either.
which makes it hard to take from a race with iron troops
also my last 5 starts are.
Desert, tundra forest, small island, shared small island, plains, desert with little plains and flood plains
and even starting in hilly landscapes near mountains i havent gotten iron.
also finding it hard to find insense
maybe its jsut bad luck but i found a total of three iron on one content of a very alrge size. and all of them were near capitals. immpossible to get back when fighting iron troops and a large distence away.
being stuck on an island wiith no resources at the start and no near lands is very hard to come back from.
well jsut grumpy at all my immpossible starts lately

WOW. I haven't dl the mod because I wanted to read about all the updates and ideas on the thread before I installed it. I've been reading the thread on and off since the beginning of December a few pages every day while at work. I get to page 106 and OFL declares a new thread. I almost started a riot but thought better of it. Oh well, on to the new thread. 114 pages is a lot of reading material I think. You guys are wonderful imho and I can think of a few people Firaxis should contact to improve the game more. Jace
ps. Whatever happened to Nightshade?

Not sure where he went. We have lost a few people along the way. Usually civilopedia editors. 
We get a lot of volunteers to work on it, but then they just disappear.

If it's nightstorm you mean, I think he got busy at work for a while, and then probably moved on to modding something else, but who knows.
It's a shame - I really miss pulling out the Whip on him.... not to mention cancelling his christmas.
Jason, where are youuuuuu?

I thought it was our webmaster Bernskov who was moving the site, but he has just informed that the entire section of the ISP's net is down at the moment. Sorry - I hope they fix it soon.

@tmarcl: Please send me a savegame from just before this happens (using an autosave if necessary). I've had a few people report it before, but none of them have been able to reproduce the bug, and neither have I, so I still have no idea what's going on

I'm afraid I need to join the club on that one. I just tried reproducing it myself, and couldn't. I don't usually autosave, so I can't send you that. I will play another game, and make sure to autosave. With my luck, it'll work perfectly, now.
Just out of curiosity, have any of the others who reported crashes modified the scenario/player properties? In the game I played, I did, and in the test, I used the defaults. It's possible that this may be connected, though I doubt it.
