Let's see, there's something there about GTK which I can never seem to find a copy of, your links are broken, but you point me to binaries that do not seem to run according to the instructions and what not... has anybody actually got this to run on a Win OS outside your development team?

Silly you - the main development team generelly don't use windows; fx I don't even have a copy of it. So we didn't test it . It is one guy who made the windows version.

Just mail any bugs/questions/bad links/outdated webpaged to freeciv@freeciv.org . Or post you questions here; I am sure someone will come along who actually have tried freeciv under windows.

There is nothing needed for the Windows Native version of Freeciv. And I've written a program in Visual Basic that makes it easy to set up a game and load saved games, etc.... The program allows you to change almost ALL the options of the game. Map size, number of huts, specials, civs, rules, everything. Anyway....it's not a final version but I can send you a copy if you want. It's basically done except for a little GUI refinement. And another bug I can't seem to iron out!! Anyway......

Just post here if you want it and I'll compile it tonight and upload it for you.

Edit: I also have the full Freeciv for windows too if the links are still broken. Maybe I can send it to you over ICQ or something.
