Zoom out, save your first turn, reload, and you get this:

Hmmm...interesting.I'll say bug.You can bet it will be gone in the next patch.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin Yu -
When u do that do u get the entire map or just what is on your screen?Comment

Just what's on the screen. If you zoom back in or move anything, it disappears."Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatum." — William of OckhamComment

It's an undocumented feature. And a good one at that. It allows you to make sure that the game will even be playable, i.e. you aren't completely surrounded by jungles or mountains.Humans are like cockroaches, no matter how hard you try, you can't exterminate them all!Comment

Good find !
... but if you're saving after one turn and reloading, why not go the whole hog: retire and see the whole map that way !

I've noticed other wierd graphics, especially with navy ships, on the patched version. Sometimes the screen will paint a large block rather than the notmal fogged view - only happens with the patch.
I imagine this was part of the Nvidia "fix"... though your problem may be different.

Venger, what do you mean by "large block"? Do you mean lots of tiles or what?"Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatum." — William of OckhamComment

I did report this in the official bug list. It happens everytime you load a map that doesn't reach the edges of the FOW while zoomed out. You get to see the old map without FOW until you move.Creator of the Civ3MultiToolComment
