I currently have vanilla Civ3 and the Conquests expansion pack.  I'm
not really interested in multiplayer but I heard on the civ fanatics
web site that Play the World contains it's own scenarios.  I
understand it contains a "best of the net" folder.  So I am wondering

A couple of months ago I wrote here about my machine hanging up during the
game.
It then seemed to spread to the rest of my machine.
The suggestions I got were all great and I followed most all of them to no

When I go to play Civilization III (Game Of The Year Edition, ver.
1.29f), the game will display the splash screen and then not do a
thing. Until I bring up the task manager and kill a process, that is!
Doesn't matter which process, any will do. Typically I just kill the

I have been playing Civilization since 3.0 vanilla was first released.
In all this time I have still not figured out what advantage there
might be to "future tech" levels.  I believe I read early on that it
was a "surprise", but I hav e never seen it do anything but eat funds.

I just downloaded and played Rise and Rule on C3C last night.  It is
definitely different.  I enjoyed it until I went to upgrade my
horseman.  There was a missing *.ini file and I, unfortunately, forgot
to write down the name.  

I've just noticed that the privateers have an attack of 2 and a
bombardment of 3 - however as their range of fire is 0, this makes the
bombard score pointless!! Annoying.

Was the bug where you couldnt "disband" the captured enemy princess
ever fixed? This could be a fun addition to the game if it worked! I'm
using v1.22 of C3C.

I've been meaning to ask this for rather a long time.  When I'm within
a turn of getting a new advance, I can get it sometimes from two or more
research percentages.  What happens to the research that was done that is
beyond what was needed for the advance?  Is it applied to the ...

I'm in the UK and just installed Conquests... Was wondering where I
can get the latest patch, if I have to install earlier patches first
(instructions would be a plus, considering my complete lack of
knowledge of anything technical!) and also whether I can installl DyP

I reviewed the units in RAR for whatever upgraded to Apache Longbow as
the program crashes when trying to upgrade to that unit.  I found that
the Gunship upgrades to Apache Longbow that upgrades to Eurocopter
Tiger, that upgrades to Ka-50 Hokum.   The problem is that folders for

I am playing C3C 1.22.  I have a problem where opposing forces enter
my borders with as many as 6 war units but I don't have the option to
say "leave or declare war."  This leaves me at a disadvantage when I
have to declare war breaking treaties and getting a bad image to other

Just ordered the "Civilization 3 Deluxe Edition". I got Civ 3 (the
original) but none of the expansion packs. I know Conqu. and PTW comes
int this package, but there`s also a disc with some other stuff. Can
someone give me a short explanation of what I`ve ordered.....?

Playing C3C.....
Maybe I'm overlooking something, but I can't seem to find where I can change
the screen resolution.
Anyone knows?

I am playing C3C 1.22.  When I set out a sub and a friendly nation or
ally bumps into it, I am automatically at war with that nation.  
This did not happen in earlier versions of Civ.  Is there a way to
prevent this other than linking the sub to a surface ship in the same

Is it possible to lock alliances with an AI player in C3C?  I usually
play America and would like to have a locked alliance with England.
