I've hade various bugs.
*First one is a Virtual Memory leak, with CTD (already reported)
*seconde one is in some messages informing me it would be good to produce certain things. It's ok for most, but for seettlers, I get the problem that the unit name isn't colourd. Instead I getthe following text : "[...]La formation d'une unité (COLOR_BUILDING_TEXT]Colon) nous aiderati[...]"
*when talking with another leader : instead of "Objets échangeables" I get "Objets #changeables" (It's not a "#" but a square)
*There are quite a few mistranlated words/names. I haven't noted them all. if you want me too, I'll do it-or tell me in which files everything is written, it will be a faster check-.
fon instance :
"Appuyer sur ENTRER pour finir votre tour/ pour quiter" It should be written "ENTREE" (entrée)
On name of a St is spelled "St Augustine" instead of "St Augustin".
and so on.

Weren't it for the memory leak point, everything is so good... Great game (even for fans from civ 1;) )
 
I have the same version, and yeah I've noticed these things. There is also a small problem with the text of the synagogue building (I don't remember exactly what I is, and the game now has decided to give me a BSOD everytime I load a savegame...).

I don't really agree with the "Entrée/Entrer" thing... I call the key "Entrer" and not "Entrée".

Too bad it won't run anymore, because Civ4 is a good game.

How weird is it... According to my latest news it was available for the November 4th. Anyway, once I've got the news I've bought it right away.

The game works fine in general. However, it's clear it's been only half translated. All the great heroes have their name in English (like Homer instead of Homère or Moses instead of Moïse, etc...). In the city screen, it's written "Wonder", "Building" and "Unit" instead of "merveille", "bâtiment" and "unité".

Here again, a patch correcting the French translation would be great.

for the "Entrée/Entrer" issue, the official name is "entrée" so as well use it.
For the translation, I just posted 2 exemples. There are a lot of mistranslated things here. And alas I fear that the texts and names are spread in a vast amount of files, so as to be nearly impossible to check and correct...
But the game is great nontheless (if only that memory problem could be patched quickly...)
