No, as all the posts say, this is for Warlords.

Of course, your RAM total has nearly nothing to do with it....just allows you to play a SMALL bit bigger and longer.
As I have said hundreds of times, go complain to Firaxis about the MAF, it is their code that they only fixed in BtS....and yes it is an easy fix for Warlords but that would not generate extra $$$ for them....

Absolutely....but each computer is different so there is no promise of success
Sadly it's faster, but i get MAF again at 500... Oh well, i know it's not because of you, i'll wait for WoC then

That is a sweet system for Halo 3....but is no better than a 1.6GHz P4 with 1GB RAM for Civ/ViSa actually

Yes but you get my meaning.....and you need that system for Civ barely more than you need it for Halo 3

The ncsaver is the work around to delay the maf from warlords. Its generally located here. C:\My Documents\My Games\Warlords\Saves\NCSaver. just need to delete everything in there. If you are saving a game you need to keep it. Basically for every ViSa game there is 2 saves, the regular one and the ncsaver. Its not a huge deal as i've had about 200 some saves in there b4.
so u dont have to delete anything then? its just that the installer advised emptying a certain folder everynow and again.
been playin visa on a 1250 turns on noble settings with 12 civs on the biggest map with tech trading on. im at 250AD and have noticed that im the most advanced civ and there are still some wonders from the ancient era that havent been built. it feels like research is too slow both for the player and the AI.
anyone else got any thoughts on this?

Hi,
I usually try to avoid asking questions and trying to do this on my own, but i'm afraid that this time it didn't work. I've been trying to play v3.25. The problem occurs when I start up a game under any case(new scenario, custom game...). It crashes to windows.
What I have tried:
Looking at the readme and forums on how to install the game meaning:
Installed in right path check
Clearing cache check
Reinstalling, removing and and start with clean install check
Reinstalling ATI Radeon 700 drivers check
Making sure I have correct patch which is 2.13 warlords check
Rechecking forums (extensive searching) check and double check
Now, i'm sure that i'm doing something wrong because of all the posts made by other people who got it to work. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm using Windows Xp ultimate french version, but installed game in english. Probably an issue?
I have played other mods which work normally. So I'm thinking there is something that I have missed. Now, I'm not an expert programmer. I am just an end user which wants to enjoy this wonderful game. If I haven't posted this in the right place I'm sorry. Thanking you in advance.

Well you have certainly done a good job going through all the usual causes of a problem.....so you haven't left much for me to suggest except the language thing. I know others have had issues with other languages besides English.
Ok, little update. BTW thanks for quick response TAfirehawk. I don't know what I did differently, but I'm able to play a custom game. Other game types still crash. I tried playing on the map available on your web site Giant_Earth_for_ViSa_v3_European_Powers and at first turn the "You have been defeated" screen appears. Have you heard of this situation before?
