Civilization IV: BtS 3.13 fixed EXE not working

[DanielZKlein]

Hi,

the BTS 3.13 fixed exe doesn't work for me. When I start it, it seems to load just fine, but then I see the main menu only for the fraction of a second before I end up back in Windows with no Civ process running. Any idea what could be the problem?

Have you tried without a crack?

Civilization.IV.Beyond.The.Sword.Update.3.13.CRACK FIX-ViTALiTY

Maybe this is why?

[DanielZKlein]

Yeah it works fine without the crack.

Where can I get that crackfix?

edit: I found the entire update as a Vitality release and the nfo (which I got separately) says to copy the crack from the vitality dir in there. Now I'm assuming that's probably the crack I also found on gamecopyworld? Or would it be worth downloading that to try that one out?

hi

im glad that theres a crack out so fast, but ive got the same problem.

after one sekond in the main menu the same problem like DanielZKlein comes..

a answer for this would be great!

I'm sure the crackfix will be uploaded to GCW within a few days.

[EMPiRE]

days?! hours!

[etetepete]

hmm.. "The file you are trying to download is not available on this mirror or is more than 1-2 months old."

i hope i dont stres you, but it would be great if the download would work

thanks, etetep

the same ....
someone knows what happened?

[DanielZKlein]

It'll probably need some time to propagate to the mirrors. Give it a few more hours.

Thanks guys

edit: note that the main entry now says "Updated!" so what I assume happened is they uploaded and linked in a new version of the file, and the mirrors probably only update at a certain interval. Someone correct me if my assumptions are wrong

Not working.

Btw playing with fixed exe gives u automaticly a *mod* version in multi?

[DanielZKlein]

I can confirm that the file duffyduck linked to works just fine. Thanks a lot

[CortoLeMaltais]

Well for me its not working, getting the same than before... load 1/5 then error.

[DanielZKlein]

Well that's different from what I was getting. I never got an error; it loaded completely, then I saw the menu for the fraction of a second, and then I ended up on my desktop. Does it work properly without the fixed exe for you?
