  • What are we?

    The "where" thread is going pretty well. Now it just occurred to me, what version is everyone playing? I wonder if this might show some interesting stats on that subject. Me? I only have the MGE version. From what I've been reading, I'll bet there're only about 1 in 10 who play that one. Let's find out. Although I'm not sure of all the different versions that are available. You all will have to fill in the blanks.

    MGE - 1
    2.42 -

    -
    More than one -

      I recently got MP, so I now have two versions of Civ2 on my computer. I still use 2.42 for SP games.

        I'm a 1.07c person at heart, since that is where almost all of my games have been played I do have the 2.42 CD now though. Guess that would make me a more than one? My CD drive is non-functional where i have 1.07c, and I like having the 2 to compare from time to time

        MGE - 1
        2.42 - 1 (2?)
        1.07c - 0(1)?
        -
        More than 1 - 2(1?)

        Edit - forgot to see if others had posted while i was typing away

          I alternate between Civ II for scenario's and ToT for normal games.


          1.07c - 0(1)
          2.42 - 1(2)
          2.78 - 1
          MGE - 1
          ToT - 1

          More than 1 - 3
          Are those numbers still correct?

            looks like we need a couple rulings on what counts as what. do earlier patches of 2.42 count as a different version?, do we increment each version we have, as well as the number of people with multiple versions?

              What's with the parenthesis?

              1.07c - 1
              2.42 - 4
              2.78 - 2
              MGE - 2
              ToT - 2

              or, if you wanna do it how it has been going:
              1.07c - 0(1)
              2.42 - 1(2)
              2.78 - 1(1)
              MGE - 2
              ToT - 1
              More than one - 4

                  I'm confused about all those paranthesis, but I play Civ 2.42 so I think it's:

                  1.07c - 0(1)
                  2.42 - 2(3)
                  2.78 - 1(1)
                  MGE - 2
                  ToT - 1
                  More than one - 4

                    I too am totally confused - I possess 2.42, several variants of this including Hi-Res and a personally modified Hi-Res I use for my own games, MP, CiC, FW, ToT and CtP but I guess that as over 90% of my games are either straight 2.42 or on my own mod of 2.42 I should cast my vote for 2.42???

                    Is this corresct

                    1.07c - 0(1)
                    2.42 - 3(3)
                    2.78 - 1(1)
                    MGE - 2
                    ToT - 1

                      I have Civ II version 1.04 (or 1.06?), updated to 2.42.

                      I have Ultimate Civilization Collection, the Euro version of MPG. Updated to version 1.3.

                      I have Test of Time and the only patch for it.

                      There! I'll let someone else fill in my numbers...

                          I have the following versions of the .exe file

                          1.06 (2)
                          2.42 (6)
                          2.62 (1)
                          2.78 (2)
                          MGE (3)

                          and TOT (4) (for multiusers)

                          versions up until 2.62 are all the same in saved game format, so I never use the lower versions now. I usually play with 2.78 because I can't stand MGE. I bought TOT on a whim, installed it, took a peek at it, never touched it again. It's not designed for a P120.

                            I thought as with your "Where" list, it's a question of cutting and pasting the table, so i've added my single owner 2.42 to your list. However you'd have to add AL's contribution to it! A bit complicated if not everyone follows you MO.
