Yes I have.
Is that so amazing? Most people think it looks too big and clumsy.

Anybody who thinks Civ4 couldn't have been programmed better is foolish, though anyone who thinks that it could have been done so much better that people could get it to run on todays cellphones with the same graphics and such as on todays desktops with decent speed are twice as foolish.Comment

Most programs are not efficient today, full stop. The only exceptions are those for embedded controllers (cameras in particular).Originally posted by Unimatrix11
No offense, but i think computer games nowadays are not programmed very effieciently, since people keep buying new hardware anyways.
That's because the hardware is very fast, so there's no need to write efficient programs. For example, Java is unthinkable 10 years ago. Not that long ago in the past Apple made a computer called the Apple III, and it used UCSD Pascal. Now, Java is a lot like UCSD Pascal in the sense that they both compile to an intermediate format (bytecode), which is interpreted when the programs run.
The main reason why Java works and UCSD Pascal didn't is the difference in processor speed.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

Civ $ will never go mobile. Congress or the UN will pass a law protecting us all from such risky behaviour. I will write Hillary immediately so she can get a jump on this.Comment

By the way, I just noticed that Civ 3 for mobile phones is... 97kb.
Let me verbatim: ninetyseven kilobytes

3 or 2?
Either way, it shows that it is possible to squeeze a lot of program into a small space.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

It says so on the web page of my phone service provider, where you can buy it for ~2.5 euros. Don't know where you can get it for free (and if).Comment
