The Steam version of Civilization IV was just updated. I no longer have a direct connection option.

This is the only version of Civilization IV that I own.

Uhm. This could be a problem.

Yep, I saw that. I'm just not inclined to go eBay a CD or pirate the game at the moment. If this game is going to continue as-is, I am going to need at least a temporary replacement.

Send me a PM for a download link and a short instruction for how to install.

Hopefully this will be sufficient for me, Douglas Quaid, and anyone else who is stuck with a crippled steam version.

How do you roll back to a prior version?

I need to go to bed (1:30 AM), but look for instructions for one of these two topics.

Windows : Search for Previous Versions
Mac: Search for Time Machine

You'll need to restore an older version of the file from one of those methods, or source it externally if you don't have a backup on your own computer. I hope we can find a legal place to link to a trusted download soon so we can get past this. But in the US I don't know if it's legal to post a link or share the version I recovered.
