PTW - Wont load at all

[jimlad2]

Hi, first post here, but been lurking for ages.

I got PTW and installed it without any problem. Then tried to run it and it just comes up with the problem message
CIVILIZATION3X caused an invalid page fault in
module TRIDICDP.DLL at 0167:69016965.

Can't get it to run at all, but bizarrely I can get the editor to run.
I have 1.29f installed on Civ3 - is it possible there is a conflict?
AFAIK my PC has the minimum specs required to run the program.
Any advice much appreciated!

What exactly are your specs?

Quick Question here...

If I get Play the World and install it. Are the new Civilizations, units,wonders all available when I play CivIII?

Is it just an add-on pack? or a separate program that you run?

I'm assuming you add the software and then play Civ II as normal and have the added functionality?

Please let me know.
Thanks

Unlike many expansion packs, it is a separate game. Your Civ3 still functions the same and you have a separate game that runs PTW in a sub folder.

O.K. that sparks another question then.

I;ve heard there are several NEW Civilizations in the Expansion pack.

Can you mix and match the new Civ's with the original Civ's from Civ III

Thanks
