Civilization II: Test of Time Installation Guide Many classic games remain popular decades after their release. Fans keep them alive by fixing bugs, creating mods, and, importantly, maintaining compatibility with current operating systems. So how does the casual gamer keep track of all these changes, so that they may play the game with the best possible settings? That's what this guide is about. Why the Test of Time version?

MicroProse released several versions of Civilization 2, beginning with the original (sometimes referred to as the classic) version in 1996. This was followed by the Conflicts in Civilization (CiC) and Fantastic Worlds (FW) expansions in 1997, and then the stand-alone Multiplayer Gold Edition (MGE) in 1998. The final version of the game, and what should have been the definitive version, Test of Time (ToT), was released in 1999. Unlike its predecessors, ToT was not well received. Mostly for two reasons: firstly, it was created as a full-priced stand-alone game hot on the heels of MGE. Many argued that one new scenario, plus 3 mods didn't justify the price tag, particularly if they'd just forked out for MGE. Secondly, the graphics, by many people's reckoning, were awful: dark, drab and blurry.

So why focus on this version? Because it's essentially MGE Plus.

It is MGE with a better graphics engine (shame about the choice of artwork) and superior scenario design capability. So let's install the game, grab some mods and start playing Civilization 2.

Install the Game ToT will install on 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8. Typically it does not require Windows Compatibility mode. The exact installation instructions will vary depending on which version of the game you have (original CD-ROM, Civilization Chronicles [2006], downloaded archive), so follow those that came with your game. A few suggestions: • Instead of installing the game in the default Program Files folder, create a new folder called Games (or some such) in the of your hard disk (eg, C: Games) and install it there. Many old games, including Civilization 2, save data to their installation folder instead of the Documents folder in the user profile.

The Program Files folder is often write protected against non-administrator accounts and this may prevent you from saving your games. • Avoid a long installation path.

This is especially applicable to those people with Civilization Chronicles. Its verbose installation path, when combined with scenarios bearing large folder names, may produce game crashes. Change the default path and shorten scenario folder names if necessary.

ToT's file path limit is 113 characters. Anything over that and you're going to run into trouble. C: Games Test of Time is good.

• Avoid irregular characters in the installation path. Characters, such as full stops (periods), can produce in-game anomalies, eg, the disabling of some menus. • If prompted to install DirectX 6 drivers, select No. • If prompted to register the game with MicroProse, select Cancel, and Never Register.
