Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
since it will be ported to Mac O/S X which is reportedly highly UNIX friendly, does this mean that the Mac O/S X port will be playable on all *NIX machines?
Mmmmh, probably with minor or inclusive, no changes.
Roman: Civilization belongs to the civilized. Attila: It belogs to those who have the power to conquer it. Me: Nope, it belongs to me. Coz ive paid 50 bucks and it has a 30 days satisfaction guarantee.

Either way, it would require porting....moderate graphical changes assuming it was written with portability in mind.

I have yet to find anything published by Infogrames that has been officially ported to Linux. It seems they have the same attitude many software publishers have about Linux, not enough users to warrant the investment of money into the project.

You could subscribe to transgaming and ask them to concentrate some efforts on getting Civ3 to run on Linux. While Civ3 supposedly runs under DirectX8 I don't think it goes very deep (2D interface). It could work.
Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

Thanks, but no thanks!
Well some companies actually like to be paid for their services. You really didn't think these people work for free did you?
If you had bothered to read what this is about you would see that basically you hire the services of a group of programmers (Transgaming) who will work on the most popular games/programs. Once a certain level of subscriptions is reached they'll release the DirectX code as opensource. It's a win-win situation for all involved: subscribers get their programs earlier, the programmers get paid and once a certain level of subscriptions is reached it will be released for the public (long time off).
