  • UnPak

    I used the Pak-Unpak utility and followed your instructions about unpaking it into the CIV4>Assets folder, but there were no additional files in that folder after I finished the Un Pak procedure. So I did it again. Still no additional files in that folder. I did go ahead and move the Asset0 file to a different location tho.

    My ATI drivers are 6.14.10.6458.
    My CIV4 patch is 1.61.

        • I think that's no longer relevant with the various patches, they included this fix as part of one of the early vanilla patches (1.52 I think).

          You probably need to fix your DirectX install (www.gamesforwindows.com) if you have an error similar to this; or you have an incompatible video card.

          • Doesnt help those who wasted their money for whole CIV4 collection.

            BECAUSE patch check doesnt recognize installed CIV4s! So cure is not to use those patches.

            at least mentioned 1.52, or Boyond the Sword version 3.02. At final test I am checking with 3.13 version....

            DirectX reinstalled, but like others lately in this tread game worked 2-3 weeks (returning time conviniently passed) until the failure appeared.

            • If you're using 3.13 the (original) renderer error should not be the issue (as with most of the folks in this thread); it was entirely corrected well before BtS. If it takes weeks to show up, it's probably a hardware failure of some sort (ie, video card being overburdened by too large a map/too many civs too late in the game).

              • Didnt help.

                Thoses patches doesnt recognize that there is installed "Sid Meier's Civilization 4 Complete"

                When the patch for that may be published?

                      These patches are intended for very early versions of Civ. They would not be necessary for Civ4 Complete - that is fully patched (except maybe BTS 3.13? Not sure about that.)

                      What graphics card/cpu/ram do you have?

                      • Same Issue

                        nVidia GE Force 9800 GTX. I am sure that the cause was a series of patches pushed out by microsoft because the game worked great before that.
