* Heavy sigh * Still no game for me.
OK, here's what happened. I installed CIV3, installed the 1.17 patch, unpacked the no-cd patch with WinAce, creating a seperate folder for it. I copied the Civilization3 application it created to C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\Civilization III\, which overwrote the Civilization3 application already there.
Net result? When I go to the play the game, nothing happens at all i.e. no start up screen at all.
Did I copy the unpacked application to the wrong place?
Also, checking the ReadMe notes on the no-cd for 1.17vfCiv3, they go as follows:-
1. Unzip.
2. Unace manually to a temp dir.
3. Run the updater.
4. Copy crack over original exe.
5. Start the game as usual.
Now, I did steps 1,2,4 and 5 ok (assuming I copied to the right place), but I don't understand step 3. What is the updater?
