I've been downloading maps and mods etc. and I found that there must be a patch called 2.78? Is this so and where can I get it?
Thanks

Cedric's patch isn't warez or anything.You MUST OWN a copy of Civ2 for it to do anything.It is an update.There is a difference.

If you know where to get a copy of FW anywhere else please share.....

If i post a link it will be deleted.They don't understand what Cedric's patch is.

It would be a major miracle to find a copy of FW.

I will private message you the link to his upgrade

You must be missing something.You need to own a copy of Civ2 2.42(classic).The upgrades just changes a few files.

no you don't need the the FW disk,just the original.That was the whole point of making the upgrade.You can't find the disk anywhere.
There is an MGE update also.

ok then should there be an exe. file in the download? cause there wasen't any, it was just a file called fw patch but no exe. file.
hmmmm seem's like there's no way to install it.
and what is MGE? do I need that as well for the FW file?

The FW Patch is an .ace file which is a form of zip file which requires WinAce to unzip. You will need version 2.00 or later of WinAce to unzip it and you can get the shareware from www.winace.com . The MGE patch is to upgrade to MultiPlayer Gold Edition.
