GOTM 21 & 25 for mac

[cpierce]

Maybe I'm just dense, but I can't find the GOTM 21 & 25 files for mac. When I click on the link that is supposed to give me those files, all I can download are .exe files. On the other hand, I found mac files for GOTM 22-24.

Since it does not appear that we'll get PTW for mac anytime soon, I'm trying to install these files (along with the bluebox modification) to get some of the added civilizations and other features. Would be nice to add 21 & 25 as well.

I believe all you need is the files for GOTM23, 24, & 25 to play the mac 1.29f save files on the mac. Allan has a link to the installers in his signature. Do note though, that the GOTM25 installer will say GOTM24 when you open it up, its a typo.

Those .exe are setup files. Once you install them, they give you the link to the starting saves. If you have the packs installed already, check out the GOTM reference thread (sticked above), and the starting saves are linked in there.

Really? You kept that quiet!

Well, it just sort of got lost in all the excitement. Sorry.

I checked, and it actually says GOTM 23. I'll fix it later.

I understand those are setup files, but I'm not sure how I can run them on a mac. I've never been able to install anything with a .exe before.

Don't even think about trying
.exe files - certainly most of the ones around here - are purely for Windblows users. If you want to install and play the GOTM you need to ensure you are patched to version 1.29b2 of Civ3, then, if you run OS X, use my installers for gotm 23, 24, 25 to set up the GOTM mods, then download the Start file for Civ3 1.29 and play. If you are still stuck in the 20th century and insist on running OS 9 then PM me and we'll try to sort it out.
