Weird Change of Art in Test of Time Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

I started playing and everything went fine for awhile before all the art changed to regular Civ 2 Art. When this happened some blue squares would flash instead of units. The terrain went to Civ2 style. Has anyone else ever had such a problem?

Did you save you r game in the main ToT directory by any chance?
Games should be saved in the correct subdirectory (Original, Sci-fi etc.).

Got spare money?

Another fun save game bug:


  1. Start a new game in say, Sci-fi mode.
  2. Play a while and save it.
  3. Quit entirely.
  4. Start again and begin a game in a different mode from the first.
  5. Part of the way into the new game, load the previous one.
  6. Observe the fascinating graphics glitches.


BTW - It's been nearly a year since I last played it so this may have been fixed.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Another ? about Test of Time, How the hell do you get over to the alien world? The only civ left on Earth is the Zulus (just too far away), do I have to kill them or is it one of the new techs that allows you to go over?
BTW, thank you for your advice about the save files, that was the problem.....

Tired of ads?

IIRC, when your spaceship arrives, three colonists of yours are made on the Alpha Centauri. I could be wrong though, I stuck mostly to the Sci-Fi and generally didn't play Extended Original.

Full PM-box? Change here!

There is a bug in the game where you are unable to research Ultra-string theory. You need to install the Test of Time patch 1.1, download it here.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I always wondered about that. It was the major reason why I almost never played Extended Original. The other reason was that Sci-fi has four map layers.
