Civilization ii multiplayer gold edition no adviser videos Patch#The ToT Patch Project fixes a huge amount of scenario bugs (the scifi & fantasy scenarios are REALLY good now that they work properly lol), turns back on the wonders (if you provide video files), throne room and city sky view. However once again in the hardcore community its quite popular as modders have done amazing things to fix so many of those issues. So it was such a failure that there's probably a lot of people out there who don't even know ToT exists, or they have negative memories from trying it on release. Also a lot of fun features like throne room, wonder videos, grand advisory council, city sky view were removed and some idiot thought it was a good idea to make all units moving on railroads look like a happy choo choo train (regular) or a ball of light (in scifi/fantasy ones) lol. When I say belated I mean ToT came out too late into Civ2's life and was up against stiff competition (SMAC & CTP1), and I when I say underutilized I mean it was too light on content (for it's high new game price), that content was buggy & sometimes unplayable, and graphic improvements alone were not enough to sway people as a lot of the Civ community hated the dark 'clay' green graphics used. However outside of that in the world of a casual players the final 'Multiplayer Gold Edition' of classic Civ 2 (MGE) is loved more, mainly because ToT was a belated underutilized commercial failure (one of the final nails in the coffin for Microprose) whereas original version of Civ2 sold millions of copies all over the world meaning so many more people out there played and loved that one. In the hardcore Civ fan community Test of Time (ToT) is considered to be far superior due to it's graphics capabilities, animation, multi linked world map systems, and advanced scripting, especially for scenario making. That's a dangerous question as I've seen it spark many a unfriendly debate at CivFinatics haha! In the sixth dev diary we answer fan demands to show units while also showing off all city buildings and some small touch-ups to the city sky view.

HoMM2 Dev Diary 04 – New Throne Room, Intro, Dip & Wonder Videos For The Civ2 Heroes Of Might & Magic 2 Mod: Civilization ii multiplayer gold edition no adviser videos mod#If anyone is interested here's the next 3 Civilization 2 - Heroes of Might & Magic 2 mod dev diaries made over the last few months. Can't find any contact details but he's got a website here: It's made by Angus Johnson and is far more recent (new version in 2019). I used it few times to solves problems I was having with GifX inserting custom graphics into the dlls. There's also 'Resource Hacker' that people use for Civ2 as well and consider it superior. There's an email for him on the about screen in the GifX app if you're feeling lucky lol. 'GifXtractor' was made by a fellow named 'Rune Berge' in 1999 so god knows what happened to him and his source files lol. Hmm so presumably getting the source to one of these Civ2 dll viewers/extractors to see how they're accessing the images would be beneficial to you? As it would hint to how the main game is accessing the images too?
