Huge is Too Small

I think CIV4 will grow into the next generations of PCs, very nicely.

That way, the Firaxis team have made a sound choice in
unsuring that CIV4 will survive for many years to come.

Imagine playing a titan map, with 50 civs, on a 5gig memory machine in the future...

Has anyone translated those CtP sizes into actual Civ4 sizes?

Remember, CtP and the other Civ's were orthographic cells, Civ4 is straight-on. So, unless I got my math wrong (and I think I did) the 1000 x 2000 squares in CtP would be 2000 x 4000 in Civ4.

I think I remember seeing somewhere it's about two-times larger.

RAM is a huge issue for me.

I set the map size to 35x50, and I had issues reloading a map, it would crash with a memory error, and then it crashed once on a save in the industrial era.

I have a 4800+ cpu, anad the game runs very fast with only 6 civs. its the memory that is the problem.

It can only be the way civ is programmed as other things work fine in the background.

This is hugely annoying
