The UK patch should hopefully be up soon...

Yes, but a little less "advance" since the US patch wasbn't up when I first did it I had to create my own text files, and when the US patch got out I could get the right text files.

But by installing the US patch and then inserting any EU exe you would get the same result that I got from taking an EU exe an then insert every other US file

as for the skandinavian version , take a look at the back of the box , does it say " quick intro and then the flags of the skandinavian countries " , ..... if it is the case then you have indeed a UK english version

have a nice day

Yes this is the version I've got.

I think I downloaded the patch from ftp.infogrames.com (the ftp link on apolyton/civ3).

I think this was on wednesday.

Thanks for your help, Jesse.
Although I did not get an answer from the Infogrames support yet, they seem to have updated the link for the patch. It now points to
ftp://ftp.download-center.com/pub/do...iv3ptw127F.exe, which has been updated today and is also much smaller in size than the US version (7496 KB vs. 11483 KB).
So happy gaming everybody!

What does it mean ? Will we at last see more then 8 heads now ?

Not sure. Just a guess: occasionally the Foreign Advisor will tell you something good, but frown, and smile while giving you crummy news (smiling: "America is disdainful of our culture").

They apparently sell the US version in UK case here in Finland. That's what the facts tell. US patch works no prob with my copy also.

The UK patch from Infogrames UK worked for me. Hopefully that is it sorted (and that they don't repeat this whole fvck up again with Conquests).

What is the deal with 1.21 and 1.27 working together? You can play PBEM with either without needing everyone on the same patch. I didn't think this was possible.

Anyone really know what is going on?

Where is the best place to get the US patch?

I have tried [URL=http://ftp.infogrames.net/patches/civ3ptw/Civ3PTW127f.exe] since last Thursday or Friday and I can not seem to connect.

(Explorer7 seems to have tried to download the patch during the blackout).

[Mkinser]

Can't download patch either

I am having the same difficulty as Explorer with downloading the patch...and the last I heard the power failure was no longer an issue.

I have tried numerous times and it is always the same thing. I get about 2 - 3 meg downloaded and then it cuts out on me.

Any other sites besides the infogrames ftp site?

apolyton: http://apolyton.net/civ3/downloads.html
CFC: http://www.civfanatics.com/civ3patches.shtml

or try using a download manager at infogrames which can restart incomplete downloads (mozilla/the new netscape has it included)

[Explorer7]

Sabrewolf, Thank you for the alternate sites. There must be a problem with the Infogrames site. I am downloading from the civfanatics site using Star Downloader and it is working fine.

Thank you for your help.

There are no cities in Uzbekijszhtan. Only villages with large vodka depots, hence the difficult spelling.
