The Radeon 9700 control panel has an option for "game gamma" that solved this problem for me.
Where do you live?
I have a reproducible CTD and smart exception running. I got a popup that tells me the errors were logged but the box in smart exception is empty. Where is the error log file?
I have severe CTD problems with the latest version. Can I roll it back to the previous version without completely reinstalling? My dial up connection makes it difficult to pull things down from stardock, especially the first update. If the answer to this is no then how do I download the first update without it being 84 MB. I apologize for asking this again, but I read the previous threads and could never get the smaller version of the update to appear. It took me over 9 hours to downloa
I am having a similar experience; the game never crashed until the 1.02.049 update, and now it crashes constantly.
One of the land based civ games gave an "iron man" option, where the game was only saved on exit. This would seperate real warriors from those who win by reloading every time they stubbed a toe.
One easy way to make the game more challenging would be to have some AI teams declare war and attack early in the game. I have used this tactic to great effect myself. Even with minimal fire support, a few loaded transports can wreak major death from above before battleaxes appear. This would keep the human player from feeling safe to concentrate on social and tech issues early on.

Thanks citizen Flagg; that worked. I saved my serial # in a notepad file so I can paste it in the future.

Of course it cheats. A human can outplay even the best AI in any reasonably complex game. A good human player can still beat any computer in the world even in a game as simple and calculation intensive as go, Which is a finite zero sum game played by placing black and white stones on a 19X19 grid. If the AI played by the same rules and restrictions as a skilled human opponent it would get crushed every time unless there was a concerted ganging up by multiple computer teams.
This game has been presented as a competition among players to create the most efficient winning algorithm, and thereby post the highest score. In order for this competition to be fair the playing field should be leveled by making the game mechanics available. Currently a small number of players who understand how certain values are calculated have a tremendous advantage over those of us who do not. I can already hear the cries of the "learn by experience" crowd who post to this site. Many of

After restarting the computer and reloading the game I tried hitting the enter key instead of clicking the button with the mouse and this seems to work.

The turn button doesn't actually vanish until I try to end the turn. Then nothing happens. All other options seem to be available but the turn never ends and the button looks like a clock.

Has anyone found an answer to this? I just started playing a tiny game on easy level and am experiencing this problem.
