Thanks

There's a ton of things that you can download on here. You're going to have to be more specific about what you want. What addons are you talking about? Do you want maps? Player created scenarios? Etc.

No, what i mean is the way i am looking at it there all singled out.
Bundle them up in one zip so i don't spend all day downloading them to my PC.
Another words i want them all lol

Also does it matter if I'm playing Civ3 Gold edition or not?


Thanks

Civ3 Gold Edition means that you do not have Conquests, just the basic version and Play the World. A lot of the maps and scenarios are designed for Conquests, and will not run under Civ3 Gold Edition.

Also, some of the add-on scenarios contain several hundred Megabytes of data, even in zipped format. As for a total of all of the added scenarios, units, terrain, and maps, you are looking at Gigabytes of data. All of the material available for download has been uploaded over a period of over 10 years, all in discrete files from individuals forum members.

Oh I think I get it now. You want to try and download everything you can.

Yeah your best bet is to buy Conquests and just download one thing at a time. There's so much stuff on here you'd end up frying your computer if you tried to download everything.

One scenario alone took me 3 or 4 hours to download. And that's with high speed internet.

Most of the stuff is in zipped files though unless someone is posting a save from the game they are playing.

Many (though not all) of the scenarios require Conquests. The good news is, Conquests is cheap online - $5 at regular price, and dropping as low as $1.25 on sales. So, it's an inexpensive upgrade.

And yeah, there's no way to download all the scenarios and such as once. But it probably would literally take weeks to do so, even with a good Internet connection. Not to mention that it would probably take years to play them all. So I'd recommend searching for scenarios about whatever you're interested in playing now, and downloading a scenario for that time period/event/etc.
