PTW saves

[Yahweh Sabaoth]

Perhaps this question should go elsewhere, but: anyone know if we'll be able to load old PTW saves in C3C?

I assume the answer is "no," but if that's not the case, I'd like to know, as I'm in the midst of my second Monarch game ever, it's very dear to me, and I'd hate to just throw it in the trash after I've installed Conquests.

I assume there will be a seperate EXE. file to launch PTW
(same way you can do now with PTW and CIV3)

[Yahweh Sabaoth]

Ah yes, how dull minded of me.

how is conquests bundled with ptw? is ptw a seperate cd or install program or does ptw include all features of ptw plus more. i'm thinking the latter and wouldn't necessarily count on saves working. look your civ traits may change, units different, etc. i'd just hurry up with your game and then install.

No,
Now you will have three executables in your Civ folder:
1 for Civ3 (auto-patched to 1.29 (?) )
1 for PTW (auto-patched to 1.29)
and 1 for C3C (not patched )

If you double-click the PTW exe., you will be able to play the game as it is now (quite handy for PBEM etc).

PTW won't be patched to 1.27F? We will have to apply patches afte install for PTW? Was that just a typo?
