Cannot save and hall of fame corruption (2015-09-27 01:50) BeingofUniverse
Game works relatively well, few graphical errors, but cannot save, and the hall of fame is very buggy.
Amazing! + reply. (2008-07-25 22:18) Frogg
Brings back memories, and jealousy!
In reply to iScripters - are you sure the version of the Civilization(it was made for win 95, as well) your running is made for Dos?
This is a windows program (2008-06-07 10:40) iScripters
When I try to run Civilization with Dosbox 0.72, i get some weird characters and the text "This is a windows program"
Works fine (2007-10-31 04:27) BoresExpress
Russian version of this game works on 0.72 without any problem.
Civ works under 0.72! (2007-10-25 02:21) thebeez
Strangely enough, I did not experience the same problems as some other users here. For me, it works just as well as under previous versions, may be even a bit faster. Normal core, 7500 cycles, P4 (2.8 GHz), no DOS32A. Note there are several versions of the game with slight differences where bugs and features are concerned. I seem to be playing the very first version. It has some (known) bugs, but no nag screens.
Game freezes after 5-50minutes of play (2007-09-01 12:03) misterbeebee
I wrote a long post describing this bug, but this webapp lost the form content when I submitted..

Quick advice: Save game often while playing, it freezes at some point within a few mnutes to an hour every play session, and sometimes "Save Game" silently fails"

I've lost so much "play work" this weekend that I've given up entirely on trying to play Civ. The game is enough of a grind before having to do the grind repeatedly after a crash!

Buying city improvements bug (2007-06-30 20:39) cypherpunk
The bug manifests itself also on 0.63 on an amd athlon-mp machine, exactly as Rambeau said.
The number of credits left is 30719, 77FF in hex.
Might be worth checking if there's something dumping that pattern that overwrites game memory.
The amount clears itself to 30000 if the game is running with CPU cycles set at 3000, but only clears itself on turn change if CPU cycles is set at a lower value.

Strangely, this doens't seem to be having any effect. Setup is as my comment above.
Buying city improvements bug (2005-08-25 15:45) Rambeau
Hello

I am playing Civ 2.01 in dosbox 0.63 on Ubuntu Linux/PPC. It seems to work perfectly, except when I buy city improvements with money from my treasury, I suddenly have over 30,000 in my treasury, from about 50 before hand! If I don't want to spoil the game, it means I can't buy any city improvements.

Thanks

The game runs VERY fast in 2500 cycles(starting number unless you edit the config).
