Ive been playing around with the files and accidently made some changes to the original gamefiles without making backups. Now Id like the original files back, how do I do this?
A40: All the files of the game are in a ZIP file on your CD. However, this file doesn’t have a *.zip extention, so it’s probably not recognized by your unzip utility. What you need to do is open your unzip utility and then select ‘open archive’ or a similar option from the file menu. Then (assuming your CD-drive is drive D:) browse to D:\Setup\data and open either civmain.ctp or civlang.ctp. Files from the default folder can be found in civmain.ctp, files from the language folders (english/german/spanish/etc gamefolder) in civlang.ctp. Once the archive is opened you can extract the files like you ordinarily would.
