I'm referring to the symbol used to denote research in Civ4:
They're not beakers (http://tinyurl.com/5ljwpc),
they're flasks (http://tinyurl.com/5cwgmr).

  Nuclear meltdown?         


Author: Bob Terwilliger

In vanilla Civ4 (and presumably in the expansions), how does a nuclear
meltdown occur? Is it per-turn possibility, and if one happens, is it
announced at the beginning of the turn? What are the effects of a meltdown?
Is it similar to fallout?

Something I cant understand, in some games if I manage to build the UN
I get the option to go for a diplomatic victory and in some games I
don't have the option.
Is there something I am doing wrong or am I missing something
I am playing at Warlord level

Thanks in advance

  play Warlords mods in BTS?

Can mods from Warlords be played in BTS, or only in Warlords?

When I start up BTS and go to open a game, I can see all of the BTS
mods, plus the ones from original Civ4, but not the ones that came
with Warlords.

Do I just need to copy some folders to new locations, or is there an
easier way to do it, or does it just not work?

Thanks,

BP

  Civ4 - what mod adds elves, orcs, etc?         


Author: BP
Date: Jul 11, 2008 10:26

ISTR reading that BTS added a mod to play out something like the Lord
of the Rings, with elves, orcs, etc. Just got Civ4 Complete and
installed Warlords and BTS, and don't see any mod or scenario that
looks like what I'm looking for.

My oldest son was really looking forward to playing a mod like this,
so I'd like to find it if it exists.

Am I just looking in the wrong folders under Warlords and BTS?

Or is this a mod that has to be downloaded from somewhere?

Any suggestions appreciated...

  Civ 4 American Revolution mod

When I try to load this mod, the game restarts. Once it does, I select
single player. The option "play game" on the next menu isn't available.
So, I'm not able to play the mod. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks

  "Armies" in Civ IV?         


Author: BP
Date: Jul 8, 2008 12:15

Does Civ IV have anything like the Army units of Civ III?

I've been playing Civ IV a couple of weeks now and have not seen any,
but I don't know if that is just the scenario I have been playing, or
the game as a whole.

I liked the Army units in Civ III, and tried unsuccessfully to mod a
new Fleet unit - like the Army, but containing sea units instead of
land units. I was hoping Civ IV might have them?

Thanks,

BP

  Civ III

I know I should move on but I'm cheap.
Installed Civ III on new machine and added the 1.29f patch DL'd from
Civfanatics.com.
However I don't have some of the goodies like automated worker functions.
Did I miss a patch somewhere? Or is it a setting I have wrong?
Thanks for any help

  Disabling the Atari logo to prevent crashes ?         


Author: Skybuck Flying
Date: Jul 2, 2008 10:04

Hello,

I suspect the civilization 3 conquest bink player sometimes crashes when
loading the atari logo.

Is it possible to disable this logo...

If so how ?

Alternatively is it possible to update the bink player to prevent the
crashes ?

Bye,
Skybuck.
