Help me play Civ1 on WinME with Soundblaster!!

[Groovin']

Well, i play Civ1 on a WinME machine and now getting slightly pissed off playing with the PC speaker option to get it to run a resonable speed! I have tryed those utilitiy programs on the net to speed things up but to no avail.

Guess i might have to bloody well search the country for a copy of Civ for Windows or CivNet!! arrghhh!

Any suggestions?

You asked:
Any suggestions?

Yes!


Ok ok. That was quite short. So the answer should be:
Yes! Hotline Connect.
Need some more details? You can just contact me, as so many people did Maybe you'll be able to find what you are looking for...

This post might get erased but oh well. Regarding the hotline thing......thanks GhengisK but i wont need it now. If u search hard enough u can find it on the net. Especially if u can decipher french internet sites!!

Plus to those that think im a dirty old pirate.....I CANT FIND IT IN ANY SHOPS!!!! and no credit card means no net shopping, plus i have brought civ1, & civ2 but i want civnet!

I got my copy of CivNet plus manual and chart from E bay! Brand new, too.

Now if I could just find someone who could play CivNet with me...

Still, the single player game is the same as Civ1, only with a little refinement and more music. It is wonderful.

Try going to E bay.

Actually i would go to e-bay but how do u buy it? Isnt by credit card? I havent got one......but anyway ive found it now.

Dont quite like the graphics though.... but once i have set the multiplayer patch up and everything i'll be happy to have a few games sometime.

Try this link:

ftp://ftp.infogrames.net/HasbroPatches/civnet/

It takes you to about five patches for civnet.

Apparently CivNet has many, many bugs....especially when multiplaying.

However i dont know which patch to use yet so ive downloaded all of them and gonna test em out and read the text files that came with them for more info.
