Marla Singer's Map for Mac OS X Doesn't Work?

[pchan76]

I tried downloading Marla Singer's map from http://www.civ3.com but it doesn't seem to work. I placed it in my Scenarios folder like the instructions said but when I tried playing it, I got this message:

Scenario Version Invalid!

Invalid scenario version. Version 3.08 is no longer compatible.

By any chance does anyone know what this means? I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it was recently updated for the PC 1.21 patch, which means it probably won't work in the older Mac 1.17 code.

I'll agree, Brad (who wouldn't). I used the Marla Singer map about a month ago and it worked fine.

Oh, really? Shoot. I don't suppose anyone would have an older version of her map or know where I could download it? Thanks again!

I've put a copy on my Public site at Mac.com. Let me know if it works for you--it's about 783 KB.

I don't know the 'netiquette' of this, but I assume it's OK. Don't know if the above is a clickable link either.

Hi Sid,

Thanks SO much! I downloaded it and it totally works! And thanks to everyone else too for chiming in with all the good advice, updates, etc. Man, what would I do without you all? Aw, shucks... thanks again!

That's one big file. A full install is smaller than that!

Cute typo, I assume you meant kB.

Wow! Thanx for pointing this out; I'm doing some work on 'parapraxis' at the moment--the Freudian slip of the tongue. I guess that I have much bigger ideas than the reality, eh?

Silly thing is that I don't know how to compact files for shooting them through the web.
