FFH 2023 with Civilization IV Complete edition

[jlehtira]

I'm having problems with the Civilization IV Complete that I just bought. I'd need to play 2023c because that's what's being used in our multiplayer game. However, while joining, the game complains about different version of game files (even with civilization version 174 and FFH version are the same!). Also, joining always stops after loading about 400 kB of stuff, when the slider is near the angel-guy's belly button .. And, after trying to join and starting a single player game, the graphics are from original CIV4 and the UI doesn't appear.

Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to solve it?

Can it be the issue with the BtS 3.13 patch. That patch updated some dll files in both vanilla and warlords too. It did not do anything (so the version number is the same 1.74 and so on) to the files, it just updated them. This leads to problems with multiplayer between vanilla-vanilla and warlords-warlords if one of the parts has been updated with BtS 3.13 (and not the other). I saw a fix for that, don't remember if it was here on CFC or if it was on Apolyton. It probably can be found on both.

Yeah, that was it, thanks!
