Civ 4 patch help?

Post by dafydd »

Hello. I'm following the instructions on how to install Civ 4 on my Ubuntu system. I've had it working perfectly in the past, but this time I come to a stop every time I try to patch to 1.74. The patch installer doesn't recognise that I have an existing installation of Civ on my system.

Sorry to be a pain in the arse, but I can't remember if this happened before and if it did how I got around it. I can't seem to find any solutions for the problem either.

Any help would be much appreciated. I'm trying to get it working again to get myself in the mood for Civ 5. Only three months away now! Woo!

What version of wine are you using ? I can't have Civ4 (and BTS) work
with any version more recent than 1.1.37.

Indeed ! But remembeer it will take some time for wine gurus to have it
work on Linux ;-)

Did what I told you help in any way ? It would be nice to get some feed
back, to ease the correction of bugs !
