I want to hear, what patches and mods and stuff should I install? (win98)I can ofcourse play it only with original game and patch 1.2 or a newer one. But what is the common thing to play with for people?

i would like to second this request, particularly the part about the mods. 1.21 hack, apolyton pack, cd's mod, aaips, nordicus' trade goods, new units... i hear about these, and i'm wondering what does everyone recommend, especially for multiplayer, and what order things should be installed in.basically, there's a lot of stuff that i see available, and i don't know where to start, at all. |

WesW the link you posted just confused things  John LeMaitre wrote: I installed in this order: The Activision Patch The 1.21 Patch The Apolyton Pack The Medieval Mod (Cant get it,try later) Nordicus' Trade Goods (Cant find it ?) My own stuff Ok thats is a message I understand, think of me not having been in discussion about this or that. But What about the "Awesome AIPs" mentioned in the link you gave WesW? If I should install AAIP when in the process should I install them. And which one, the AAIP CD.s mod, or the AAIP Original or the AAIP pack? Jesus, I understand why somebody gives up  But im glad people is prepared to help

All,The order should be: 1) CTP 2) CTP 1.2 Patch 3) Civfan 1.21 Hack 4) Apolyton Pack which includes: CD's Mod & Graphics, TP's PowerSLIC 2, Harlan's Graphics Mod, Slax's Color00.txt and Zaz & Uppsala's Maps) 5) WesW's Medieval Mod (which includes Awesome AIPs) If you do not install the Medieval Mod, you need to install the AwesomeAIPs(Pack Version, not CD's or Original). Hope this helps. Don

 Now i almost got all info , but what about Apolyton pack does it includes the CD mod 4.2 or the 4.22, and if it only include the 4.2 , should I install the 4.22 mod after I installed the Apolyton pack ? I hope you understand my question |

CD 4.22 is basically the same as 4.2, only it has been adapted for patch 1.2. For the Apolyton Pack it has also been adapted for patch 1.2, so if you install the Apolyton Pack you don't need CD 4.22. |

ok, i have a minor problem, and this probably should go in the help forum, but it is very much on topic for this thread:starting from my ctp install that was already patched to 1.2, i installed 1.21, apolyton, aaip for pack, and nordicus' trade goods 1.3 for pack. my girlfriend did the same. we tried multiplayer - and now she's getting "database out of synch" errors, and she can't see the map. she just reinstalled everything, again in that order. it still happens. before i reinstall, is there something else i should do to fix this? my single player game works fine, and is a lot more fun now, but multiplayer is why we both bought the game... |

You have a girlfriend who plays CIV?? (Massive envy) I can't get my wife to touch computer games with a 10 foot pole. Anyway, have you tried hosting the game from her computer? Do you get the same errors on your side? |

my girlfriend doesn't mind a game either. and yeah, it is good  actually, seeing as someone's brought this up, i've been curious as to how many of the people posting here were female. i realised a few weeks ago that unless the nick is obviously female, i automatically assume that everyone here is male. i wasn't going to bring it up though in case people thought i was being sus, but i can assure you that i'm already happy with my civ-playing girlfriend...  have i assumed wrongly that most people here are male? |

ok, we tried a couple tests, and it seems that there is no problem with the trade goods, but when we start a game with the apolyton pack, the 'database out of synch' errors make themselves known. any ideas? |

Demo, the Med mod comes with its own tech chart. If you don't use the Med mod, drop me an email, and I'll send you the original, which I got from Morgoth. (His wife made it, so she could beat him even more often than she did before.) |

Problems with Medieval mod (Medievalmod_2_1.zip). I can not see the graphics and text for some units in Great Libary.(Cruiser Missile, Helicopter, Horse Archer, Missile Cruiser, Siege Engine)I have installed: CtP, Ctp update 1.2, 1.21 hack, Apolyton pack After that I edit userprofile.txt and change this line DebugSlic=No to DebugSlic=Yes. The readme says that I dont have to do the rest of the readme files. I then make a copy of Apolyton map and call it Medieval. After that I install Medieval mod. Why does some units miss out? I CAN see the names of the unit in libary, but as said NOT graphics and text. |

I guess you need to get the corrected uniticon.txt. There should be a link in the download for the Med mod, and there is another in the Med mod Update thread. |

Well, I installed the uniticon.txt file and it helped ...a little..but I still have any text for the Alpha Transporter, helicopter got text for alpha transpoter, horse archer got text for helicopter etc.And then I also get strange happines numbers, but different from the other thread I think. I got a city cellebrating and the happines numbers shows 62%. |

I found out why I had the strange happines thing. First they were happy but then I didnt have enough money so wages were set down(automaticly), and that they didnt liked.But i still have libary problems. |

Go to my web site through the link here, and get the Medieval Pack. That will solve your problems. I don't understand why the uniticon.txt didn't know. |
