Playing PTW from Conquest CD

[Arthog]

I recently tried to launch the PTW expansion, in order to play the last GOTM, and thought it was included in my C3C. But when i tried to launch PTW, i received only a "Insert the PTW CD" warning (wether i use the C3C or the Civ3 CD, i get the same result).
Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Welcome to CFC Arthog!

How are you trying to load PTW? Via Start -> All Programs?
It works for me. Did you own PTW previously to C3C, or not?

I did not have PTW before C3C. And when installing C3C, i did not ask for a shortcut in "all program". So, I tried to launch it from the exe file in Civ3/Civ3PTW.
Strangely though, i have no exe file called "civPTW", only the Civedit, and one called Civilization3X (that i thought would be the game, at first...but now that i think about it, it could be something else...)

Civilization3X *is* the name of the PTW exe. Try running that, with the C3C CD in, since it works for me.

That's what i first tried, and gave me this error message.

Well, it is not that much of a problem. If necessary, i'll install the mod for Civ3-vanilla, and play the GOTMs without PTW.
Anyway, i play nearly only conquest now (which is why i never checked before how to launch PTW...).
Thanks for trying.
