Just upgraded from a 2011 Win7 laptop to a modern Win10 laptop. I'd like to install Civ4+BTS+the BugMod.
I have all the original install discs, but before I start a Bronze Age war with Sitting Bull, I'm looking for recommendations on best way to proceed. I started to install from CD, but right out of the gate, the Civ4-Disc1 said I needed to install DirectX (I have 12.0 on my new laptop). Then I saw I'd have to download a bunch of patches (1.64, 1.71, bts3.19) off random websites.
For $30 (which I don't mind paying), I can download from Steam - Does anyone know if this is fully patched? I've never used Steam before. Then, once downloaded, can I install the BugMod?
