What's Happening With the Game?

[Epistax]

We found (?) the english? Holy sh*t how many people are next to us?

I bet that the world is divided into two chunks. We're on one side, with everyone. On the other side are the Zulu's, who are half way done with their alpha centauri bound vessel.

Oh, its worse, looks like some of the others have alot of conacts too...could it be...pangea????

[Donal Graeme]

Dude, I forget to ask!!! What kind of map are we playing on??? LAs in, what are the map stats: size, water content, land formation, age, moisture, temp, etc.

[LordImpact]

Huge map. Everything else is random. How mysterious! bwahahahahahahaha

this is going to sound incredibly noob, but where do you save the game?

If you accepted the standard installation names the save should be saved in:

C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\Civilization III\Saves

It still won`t let me: its in the directory, but in the "Load Game " box it appears as civ3demogame.sav..sav if I do nothing to it, or civ3demogame1870..sav if i remove the "sav" from the file name. I save it as a savdocument. Is that right?

Mine saved to hard disk as civ3demogame1870.sav..sa, don't know why, but it loaded fine when I went into the directory and changed the name to civ3demogame1870.sav

Butch,

Make sure the file is saved with .sav file, use the name the Baron used, it should work. .sav at the end tells it the file is a saved file, "sav", and thus a game and then it knows what to do. ..sav confuses it, it sees the file as a "." file and has no idea what to do with it. When you open make sure name is filename.sav..only one dot.

Hope that works.
