Turn sent. I applied the new patch, let me know if this causes problems.

ormuzd · March 2, 2003, 12:14

I have problem loading the save. I have replied to your e-mail to re-submit first.

Harovan · March 2, 2003, 15:39

Screw it, I'll downgrade later today. Right now I lack the time to do it.

Harovan · March 2, 2003, 17:37

Replayed in 1.14f and resent.

So a 1.21 sav wasnt playable with 1.14?

I'm now tying to uninstall 1.21 with the disc -> Cant do it (of course).
Uninstall the patch with the add/remove programs ->OK
The splash still says v1.21 does anyone know if its actually 1.14?

Sirralph, what did you do?

Dis · March 3, 2003, 14:01

I'm still playing with the old patch. I will upgrade tonight.

ormuzd · March 3, 2003, 14:10

Don't upgrade - I participate in some other games where some of the players can't upgrade. And it seems the versions of the saves are no compatible

SpencerH · March 3, 2003, 16:49

Anyone with a non-US version cant upgrade and cant open the 1.21 sav files.

I made a completely new installation:

- Installed Civ3
- Patched Civ3 to 1.29f (not required for PtW, but I may still play plain Civ3)
- Installed PtW
- Patched PtW to 1.14f
- Copied the CIV3PTW folder in the Civilization III directory and named the copy CIV3PTW-1.14f
- Patched PtW to 1.21f and renamed the copy CIV3PTW-1.21f

Now I have a dual installation. I can rename one of the folders back to CIV3PTW to play that particular version.

In fact, I made it even more sophisticated, I checked both folders for differences and made zip files of the different files, unpacking them at need, but the method described above is the simplest and works.

You should probably try to post that in its own thread. This is going to be a reoccurring problem for many games.

Dis · March 4, 2003, 04:48

hmm that's weird.

Because I'm in several other pbem's and no one has had problem.

I'm not sure how many of them have the non- U.S. game though.

Harovan · March 6, 2003, 05:43

Bump! Who has the save, gentlemen?

SpencerH · March 6, 2003, 07:40

Last turn I played was 1990

ormuzd · March 6, 2003, 07:55

I have sent 1950 BC to andy. It seems it's his turn
