How to stop dumb movie?

[Robert]

ESC doesn't work if the civ3 'window' is not the 'top-window' at the moment civ starts.

ie. if you are browsing, and you decide to start a game of civ. You start the game, and alt-tab back to the browser, and then to movie starts OVER the browser. But there's no way you can end it.

Thus, be sure that when you start civ3, you just keep the civ3 'window' on top, and then 'esc' the movie away.

What's the name of the file?

PS, terrific thread on winning early. Keep up the good work.


It's not so much I hate the movie as I hate how long it takes to play.

Look for Art/Movies/Intro.bic. The game works just fine if you delete it. Hitting Esc works as well.

If you have not seen security_briefing.bik, you can change its name to Intro.bik. It is a much shorter movie and takes much longer to get "old". It's funny!
