Like others I have found several bugs in BTS which I gather are due to the 303 Patch. Is there a straightforward way to remove 303 and replace it with 302 which I believe is less buggy?
Remove 303 Patch and replace with 302

Unfortunately short of uninstalling BtS and reinstalling BtS and manually patching to 3.02 there is no other way

Or you could just put in the highly recomended Solver's Unofficial Patch which fixes many, many bugs.

@Popejubal: Unfortunately Solver's patch does not fix either of the two major bugs 3.03 introduces. Better to go back to 3.02 (I know of no better way than uninstalling and reinstalling BtS), and then using Solver's patch if you want to.

The bugs in 3.03 are:
1)Combat animations are broken - units frequently appear to die, only to get up and continue fighting, and similar problems.
2)Clicking on any link in the civlopedia has a very high chance of causing a CTD.
Since 3.03 doesn't actually fix anything (it's only supposed to help Vista users, and as one, I have seen no improvement whatever), it should be avoided like the plague.

Ah yeah. I noticed the CTD, was wondering if it was Solver's, or the HOF mod, or the Blue Marble mod... I think there's also a problem with Workers being animated as chopping a forest when they're not doing anything.
Well, since i'm not planning on using Vista before i'm militarily forced to do so (^^), i wish i hadn't installed 3.03 then =P

Two other BTS 303 bugs I have found are not being able to go to war for 30 turns after a peace treaty instead of the usual 10 and being able to build military universities before you have discovered the required tech.

Many also experience problems with wonder movies.
This bug is in vanilla BTS and fixed via a xml (you'll find it in the same post as the solver's patch : http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=168750 ).

The 30 turn bug I have experienced twice was both a normal speed.
