Somebody re-upload this please!
It was, the download is available in the quoted post.Thanks to Fortis I've got a copy of this great old Final Fantasy Beta mod to test and preserve for my ongoing scenario search and rescue work which includes Final Fantasy! I also recently successfully preserved Magus77's old Final Fantasy 7 Civ3 mod too.
I've tested it with my disc install of Civ3 (steam install users will need to modify label files) and it worked! Looks awesome!!! I'm going to enjoy playing this!!
Last time I spoke with @DJ Bonebraker she said she was working on a new and much improved version of this mod so lets all cross our fingers she gets it to the finish line! In the meantime at least we've now got the old version safe and sound from being lost again.
I've repacked with 7zip (down to 427MB from the old 573MB zip file) and uploaded a copy of the mod to CivFanatics servers to preserve her work. Should DJ Bonebraker return to CFC she can modify her original post download link for this mod to link to here instead of the long gone Atomic one.

Lol he just had to go 2 posts back but oh well..
I did this rescue before I became a moderator so now I have the means to edit the OP and add the working CFC mirror link to it. That should fix things for the future...

Okay, good, I got it! I plan to make a future mod, that is going to have many of the final fantasy units in them, mostly the female units. I was also going to mix in some fantasy and sci-fi units as well, which should mix pretty good. Maybe some of you would be interested, but I havn't started yet i'm working on something else.

I downloaded it, made a map for trial, as it looks interesting, and immediately got a error message for missing text. Has anyone else encountered this, and is a corrected file available. If not, I will put my limited editing skills to work and see if I can solve the issue.

Thanks a lot for sharing this awesome Final Fantasy mod! Just downloaded it and can't wait to try it out.
Well he's just quoting me as I'm the one that restored/shared it after Fortis kindly gave me his copy. So yeah, no worries.
For anyone interested I also rescued (with help) Magus77's Civ3 Final Fantasy 7 mod a while back too..

ahh cool, that probably makes a nice addition to the existing FF mods too!

Those popheads look nice, too bad there aren't more characters for the other civ culture groups (euro,asian,..). I would also mention that there are a lot of good unit graphics out there that sadly were not added to this mod yet, I mean the ones who are final fantasy units and/or coming from the same artists that make them.
