No, as long as your one works.

There was a reason though, why i decided to replace that DLL. I read an interesting blog lately about python24 depending on msvcr71.DLL from microsoft (yes, exactly, some of you know that dll by now, don't you). The DLL itself does not seem to be a problem regarding the license to distribute it but to make full use of it you seem to need license restricted stuff. The author of the blog suspected that this was an unintended flaw that nobody noticed when the deal with microsoft was made.

I looked into this a bit. It is possible to build Python 2.4 using MSVC V6 instead of V7. The main python people don't do this for you. Also some of the extensions use things in the V7 library and won't work if you don't have it.
I also found there is a project that builds Python for windows using mingw. This still needs the C runtime libraries and you have the same choice as for the one built from MSVC. However, this would allow people without MSVC to build their own python dll while building the rest of the system (possible on a Linux or BSD system).

Sorry, if I bother anyone.. & sorry if I seem like a "little idiot girl".

I haven't got any clues about programing, never did any "compiling"
Got a recomandation for this game from an eX friend from out of country.

I downloaded almost all I encountered here (in the forum) & quess what .. messed up my computer. Now I am ready to trie again.

I wanted to ask u all a favor:
1. the link to a "project" (allready compiled) u know.. like all other games-just click and install

or

2. if 1. is not posibble, than can some1 post an exact list of link with what i need to Download (not the pages where I need to select what i should get) & an explaination "for those like me" what in the Lord's name do I do with them.

If 2. is the only available option I really need to specifie that I need a "COMPLETE IDOT GUID" like those books .. u know.

Sorry for the 2 usess of the word "ID..T". Hope no one is offended by my inability to solve this on my own .. but if this makes nice.. I promice I'll start learning about all this.

Click on the "Windows" link under the version you wish and follow the instructions if you want a Microsoft Windows .EXE (executable).

I'll trie to remember your advice, no "u", I work in marketing.. & in business the 1'st link is always the one you should trie (especialy if this is the one that sais: DOWNLOAD), when this did not work .. well .. I got confused. (I am new to Downloading free games).

Anyway .. congratulations on the game to those that participated .. only 1 thing seemed out of place:
- AI turns.. take to long and I can't turn off the "Skip AI turns" because I might miss some important movement - strategic positioning -
You know, like Heroes of Might & Magic, you can set the speed at witch the enemy moves.
- just my thoughts -

While you hold SHIFT, the moves are accelerated. If you press CTRL+A, it stays that fast all the time, but I prefer shift to speed up moves.

Great.. SHIFT is great.

I have another question: -"I Downloaded the 1.0.2 (stable) version for WINDOWS. If I get the 1.1.4 (development) version will i get many bad moments ?? "

Maybe something like this would be more user-friendly:

(of course with other icons... these ones are just to show the idea)
