Since patch 3.19 doesn´t work for Vista users....

[danieladler]

Is it possible to play mp without that crappy patch (3.19) that wont install on vista computers? In other online games there are always some servers for different patches but i havent found that for civ4.

It installed perfectly well for me on Vista and does for most people.

Make sure that you download the patch outside the game, right click on the file, select run as administrator and patch to 3.17 first if you still have trouble with 3.19.

I don't know of anywhere that runs on an old patch version, you may be able to find individuals that wish to play on an old patch if you post in the multiplayer forum.
