    TEXt problems

    When I start the game I get error messages concerning Italian text but then the game loads fine. I can also play the game but much of the text is missing. In the 'research next' popup it will say at the top, TEXT_Research_Blah_blah.
    I had that problem with the Direct2Drive version of the game and I'm having the same problem with the DVD version of the game on a new hard drive.
    I'm using Korean windows but I don't think I had a problem before patch 1.52.

    How about the English version?
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

      I select English from the install menu and the game is in English but for some reason a lot of important text in menus doesn't appear in the game. I sometimes have to guess. I think it's something the patch did to the game.

        Used any mods?

          No. It's the game straight from the DVD and then the 1.52 patch as downloaded from inside the game.

              I uninstalled and then installed again. I get the error message with version 1.00 but most of the text is fine. When I updated to 1.52 it got bad again. Here are the error messages, in case anyone can help.

              xml\text\civ4gametext_misc1.xml couldn't parse because the TEXT end tag is not the same as the Italian start tag.

                When you've reinstalled the game have you verified all three trees are removed/deleted prior to the new installation?

                        im having the exact same problems as Masuro.

                        i got the game as soon as it came out, installed it and played fine (along with the updates).

                        i uninstalled the game around xmas as i needed space on my hard drive and i never got around to resinstalling it.

                        i tried to reinstall it today and i get the same messages that Masuro describes above - even with the 1,52 update the errors persist. (clearing out the folders before reinstalling doesnt help either)

                        my computers system hasnt changed at all in the mean time. still using win xp sp2.

                        any suggestions would be appreciated.
