[bloodybuddy]

There's an option in Preferences you need to uncheck to see normal movement.

 

[bloodybuddy]

do u know the exact option name i have all of them unchecked???

 

[ummmm........]

In the second set of preferences (middle of the screen when you are changing preferences in game), make sure show friend moves, show enemy moves, animate friend moves, and animate enemy moves are all checked. Unless you mean when the AI is controlling your guys, and then you need show our automatic moves and animate our automatic moves checked. This is going to slow turns down a lot. I would recommend animating only enemy moves, and just showing friend moves. But that's just me.

dude i have all movements on and animations and its still lighting fast what do i do?????

 

[bloodybuddy]

i mean when my turn is over the computer moves real fast and i cant see that fast to see whats going on i need to slow it down so it moves them slower animated.

 

[CivCube]

What patch are you on?

 

[bloodybuddy]

1.22 if i turn everything off movements and animations its even faster i have no idea how to slow it down

 

[ummmm........]

I think turning the animations on is pretty much as slow as it can get. What the AI is doing isn't really very important unless they are in/near your territory. You just need to notice where the activity is, then go over there and check it out to see what's going on at the start of your next turn.

ty everybody so thiers now way itll be as slow as civ 3 in a mp game right?

 

[ummmm........]

OH! Multiplayer! I've got no idea. I know nothing.

you said this before you said that all of the animations were turned on. So, I am somewhat confused, but I will assume that all of the options are checked, not unchecked as you said.

There are multiple options, including animate enemy movements, and animate friendly units, and animate your own units. Maybe one of those is unchecked.

Otherwise, you just may have a real fast computer. I never experienced it with CIV, but with other games, regular animations go really really fast on superfast computers. What CPU speed do you have? I really doubt this is it, though, but you never know.

lmfao i have a pentium 3.0 gig, 1 gb of ram and a radeon 9800 pro
i just wish i could have it so its like civ 3 sp. civ 3 conquest mp the computer teams go unbeleiveable fast after i save and load the game it goes to normal speed. is thier a way to finish a mp game by saving it and loading it???
this is the only way i can get around it.

Do you have CAPS LOCK on. With this on the units(both yours and AI) will move around very fast.

 

[bloodybuddy]

No i do not have caps on i hate this bs i can understand y its fast to get the mp game over with but i would rather it take a lil longer.
