Hell, I was playing Civ 1 on a Tandy 1000, at a grand total of 3 MHz, 640k memory!!

That would be a question for Crucial Entertainment.

I know that, but I don't know if they can answer, so I passed the question to the community. I guess that someone has played the Windows verion of Civ1, and wknows what computer he/she were playing on.

Thanks Gramphos, I went to crucialstore.com they had the game and I bought it. Since this is cyberspace, I expect to hear it plop through my mailbox in about fifteen minutes.
So, does anyone think Brazil will win a fifth World Cup in soccer in Korea-Japan in one month? You know, South America has won nine World Cups championships, two more than Europe.

Hey, don't thank me. It was Dan who posted the link.

[Civ1fan]

Yes, how churlish of me, I wish to thank Dan and all the Civ1-2-3 fans out there that helped me find Civ1. This internet thingy is quite cool, it greatly assists us lagging edge sub-technologists.

Unlikely. It's probably France's turn again, sadly...

I played WinCiv on a 486 DX 2/50 4mb Ram (I think), FWIW.

I no longer have the box, but while the readme doesn't mention the processor, it does require: 4mb ram and 4mb swap file.

That's a bit primitive

I used an IBM win 3.1 system... Can't remember the speed, but it was VGA. 1994 was the first time I played Civ I. Then in 1996 I first played Civ II. 1999 or 1998- CTP.

You're welcome. I'm here to help.

Newbie. Riiiight. Jacks his own thread...

Hi [fill in the blank with your favorite Poly personage].

No. No way Brazil.

BTW. Who's in the final this go 'round?

[Civ1fan]

Me, I'd like to see an African country win the World Cup this year. That would be exciting. Spread the soccer wealth acround.

[Cavalcadeus]

Anyone own CivNet? Is it any good? Where can I get a copy?

I'd also like to see that, but I'm afraid France and Argentina are just too strong. One of them will win.

I have it. Better graphics - but you have to use your mouse more often (very annoying). It also runs slower on my comp compared to Civ1.
I think I downloaded it from the underdogs a long time ago (or possibly from one of million abandonware sites).

Mine was an Amiga 500!

I'm still playing civ1 on an Amiga 500 with half a meg RAM and 14 Mhz processor, and I've got through 4 copies of the floppies, but when I can get a new set for the same price as buying Amiga discs these days... 10 long years of civ ! May it be played forever
