Just to be absolutely positive, the trash talking thread is open to all correct? I haven't tried it yet as I wasn't for sure if some team that it would be hilarious to name their team that. It's better to ask and look stupid, than be disqualified.

Yes, it's open to all. But that would have been a good name.
I believe it's there to allow you to communicate greetings and felicitations to the other teams, and to wish them well in their endeavours

I remembered that I changed the Civ4Detailmanager setting to allow for a better view. Thus, went to reinstall 1.61, but to no avail.
Found out that there isn't even an uninstall option for Civ4
Anyway, I don't really want to do that. Maybe there could be another solution, otherwise I simply sit this out.
Now I remember that I had no issue loading GOTM2/3.

You should be able to uninstall by going to the control panel, then add/remove programs. Civ4 is listed as "Sid Meier's Civilization 4".ThERat said:Found out that there isi't even a uninstall option for Civ4

ok, will try the clear cache thingy. I know how to uninstall programms 
Am not a total computer newbie 
But one would have expected the uninstall option to be part of the package...
Just tried it..nope, doesn't work as well. I am going to download the latest GOTM and check whether I have an issue there

Why would anyone want to uninstall Civ4?!?

good one, but for example since that save protection works so fantastic...something I cannot comprehend. Here we have a game that is moddable par excellence and once you touch the xml files, you are nicely excluded from GOTM/SGOTM...
anyway I also can't load GOTM6 I just figured

Rat, I had similar issues yesterday when I tried to uninstall Ruff's Mod Pack to play nicely with this game. I had issues with the GOTM, so I uninstalled C4 and put it back on and downloaded the patch. There is now joy in Mudville.

Uninstall my mod pack. Easy - change 'customassets' to 'customassets-ruffmodpack' and it is done.rex_tyranus said:

uninstalled the whole game, made sure no customassets left somewhere
reinstalled vanilla and 1.61, loaded the game...get the same message that the save cannot load in order to make sure assets have not been modified, so much about how easy that is
So, now I have vanilla +1.61 freshly installed, no customization and the game doesn't load, guess I will just sit out those games.

Did you delete the Assets (not customassets.. customassets dont matter for this) folder after uninstalling, but before reinstalling?ThERat said:

No reload means we have to play our 20 turns straight then save and upload?
What if I get to a point I must/should consult with my team but there's nobody online and it's late and want to go to bed? Can I save and continue the next day after hearing from my partners?
