I've plugged in my laptop to my monitors. But getting the "The save file you have selected is protected to ensure that the assets in your mod folder have not been changed"
No Mods in my 'My Games' folder, so from this thread it seems like a Steam problem: https://steamcommunity.com/app/8800/discussions/0/540743757217626059/
I will uninstall the Steam version and install from disc. Otherwise need to plug in my (very) old pc each time.

Did you ever manage to solve this issue? Do you have the older non-Steamworks version of Civ 4 installed? You have to go to the betas tab to install the original release:

Not sure if that matters for PBEM games. I know the Steamworks update broke Pitboss games, since it completely removed DirectIP functionality

FYI that I'll be a bit late in playing this turn (finals week), but should have it done by sometime this weekend.

Couldn't we try to move a little faster now...

Where is the turn? the tracker is down....

Last turn submitted to gmail account was by me ... Feb 23 to Academia.

My hosting crew changed up some things and I have yet to find time to track down the tracker issue.

 

[ruff_hi]

Tracker appears to be back. It doesn't run in iframe.

Hi folks, sorry for the long silence here. Can't promise I'll be much more talkative going forward -- but still playing, anyhow!

I just wanted to say that I started this game during my paternity leave when my first child was born. Now, 5+ years later (or a few thousand years of in-game time), I'm on leave with my second! It's definitely been quite an experience to play Civ at this pace.

Long live Civ IV!

congrats grogburg

Congrats, grogburg! It'll be interesting to see how many kids you have by the time this game finally ends

GPS. Glad to notice that this pbem is moving at a regular pace... I wish my other (very few) pbems where I'm still involved were in the same situation...
