No Tactical Nukes? Quick question.

[Teddybear]

It would appear that I'm unable to fabricate Tactical Nuclear missiles. My race of choice is the Egyptians. In addition, is it standard to have an explosion from a Jet Fighter or a Cruise Missile to not produce a sound?

Must I first build the The Manhattan Project before I'm able to fashion Nukes?

 

[bloodofages]

YES i do think you need the Manhattan project. Even though i am always restarting games. You need it in other civs games so i am staying with yes you need it.

 

[sennomulo]

Well, you don't necessarily have to build it. It just has to exist somewhere.

 

[bloodofages]

has any other nation built it yet?

 

[Teddybear]

Nope, I'm leading the Science race. They're too preoccupied with incessantly declaring war on each other. It was actually a trial run, (Monarch setting) for me to get the hang of the game, hence the question.

Btw this is the standard Civ III, no expansion pack.

I take it, when I build The Manhattan Project, they're all capable of building Nukes, despite their scientific lag?

 

[sennomulo]

No, they'd have to have the tech that lets you build nukes, whatever it is. It would be silly to let backwards nations get nukes if they're still in the Middle Ages.

 

[Teddybear]

Well I lowered my expectations somewhat when my veteran Destroyers repeatedly barely survived an encounter with veteran Galleons. Anyway, that solves one question, now the other, is it standard for the units mentioned above not to produce any sound?

 

[Pentium]

Maybe you turned sound off, or the waw file is damaged.

 

[sennomulo]

My destroyers always make sounds. Check your audio preferences.

 

[Teddybear]

Hmm, the units were Jet Fighter and Cruise Missile.

How can I check if a wav file is corrupted? I'm a bit suspicious, because the copy that I purchased has some peculiar discolorations on its surface.

 

[Teddybear]

No one knows? Come on, the only thing you have to do is check in-game. It would be most appreciated, as I will replace this copy for another, if its indeed defective.

 

[Teddybear]

Gah!

Anyone. Come on...

Take those nukes to your rival's doorstep and find that no one (except allies) will trust you in the future.

When America used nukes in WII, no one said anything and America became strong allies with the European Countries. Why doesn't CIV 3 make the hit at repuation a bit less if you have been fighting in a war for a long time and everyone is getting tired of it.

try to play the wav file with an audio software like Winamp or Windoze Media Player.
