	Help! New Scenarios won't load Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Hi. I hope someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

I spent the better part of last evening trying to load fan-created .bic scenarios (okay, scenarii). I put them in the Scenarios folder, get one from the Load Scenario menu. It seems to load fine at first, but when I get the first menu (the one where you choose the tribe and difficulty level), I only get the last leader as a choice. I select it and start the scenario, but when it gets to Configuring Scenario, it just gets stuck around 68%.

Waiting 15 min for it to finish loading hasn't worked.
Re-installing the 1.29 patch hasn't helped.
Re-installing Play the World is no good.
Building a chapel to Sid Meyer and sacrifying a goat has gone no good (goat meat anyone?).

No other files came with the .bic, so I can't see what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks for any input.

	Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Have you changed anything yourself?(on the mod?)

Can you load other mods/scenario's?

No, I haven't changed anything myself. I just wanted to play it.

The problem seems to be with all 5 fan-built scenarios I took online. The scenarios that came with the PTW CD are working fine.

	maybe Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

This probably won't matter but open up the civ3 editor for ptw and load the scenario and save it as a (bix) file. This might help...just a thought... I don't really think it should do anything but tell me what happens.

later

I have the same problem. Mine however stops loading at the "a" in "configuring scenario". This has only started after I updated to 1.14f Cyklonix, good thinking but that doesn't work.
