Any word on a new patch? I haven't played Civ in 3 weeks hoping a new patch would come out and it ain't here yet. I hope its soon 
Have a look at post #135 of this thread 
Spoiler :
QFT - better they put out a patch that does not produce more problems then solve
and not rush it (again)...

Yes, I would rather wait a couple of weeks and play under testing conditions and wait for them to do a proper job with the patch
Yeah 3.03 is a textbook example why patches need to be extensively tested before public release. 3.03 was supposed to be nothing but a directx update and a few Vista tweaks but ended up adding several annoying bugs.
While it would of been nice for Firaxis to release a fixed version of 3.03 that would end up delaying the 'real' patch even further.
I am still hoping, however, that we see a new patch by the end of the month.

How does this patch interact with Solver's unofficial patch?

3.03 seems to have solved my reload crashes problem. See this thread and post #16 and 24. So I would say it is not *only* recommended for the Vista people. OK, I cannot swear that it was 3.03 that solved my problem, but it is very likely that it was.

IIRC you must reinstall the unofficial patch as 3.03 overwrites it.
I agree. Better right than fast.
To the people getting crashes with 3.03:
Did you install the DirectX update that comes with it before playing? I've used 3.03 exclusively since it came out and I have no issues.

Since Microsoft released the August update for redistributors on September 7th it'll probably be available sometime soon for end-users (I fully expect Firaxis to include it in their next patch since the 3.03 one was so bugged that people had to roll back).
Sorry couldn't resist - the newest patch is due out any minute now and has caused quite a stir around here
So it is the latest patch (as of this hour) but it is not the last

Maybe this thread should be re-titled, from "new patch is out" to "old patch is still out"

No it has not - it has just been closed (rightly so) and is slowly moving down the forum pages as new posts are being made. If you do want to read it you can still find it
There is a patch in the works and it will be released at precisely the date that your signature provides
