I would say there is something wrong with your system. Is there a
difference if you use wave or directsound output with Winamp?
I have never had any problems running Winamp 2.81 with Civ. I like
to run it in windowshade mode so I have easy access to the playlist in-
game.

Hmmm..... How about a stereo system? Or I seem to remember an even older
technology called a "Radio", I think?

I run MusicMatch in the background. The cool thing is, I can listen to
Savatage and Beethoven and still hear the game sound FX (until they get old
halfway through Ancient Times and I cut them off)
It's been my experience that trying to replace or add files within any game
(excepting the Sims, which runs great with added MP3's) almost always causes
problems. It's almost as if the programmers don't WANT you to tinker with
it.

Geeze! Sign up for Hotmail, they are increasing the inbox to 250 MB
and attachments to 10 MB and that's just for the free accounts.

Never tried it, but, it should be possible. You will probably have to
rename your mp3 files to the same names you are replacing exactly so
that the program can call them up. That would mean you would have to
listen to each on the original files and decide what you are going to
replace it with so that there is some constancy as different types of
music are called up in different ages and also to ensure you are not
replacing event sounds as all the sounds have names that are not very
descriptive. A job for someone with time on their hands.

Winamp is an odd program, I've always found it a bit temperamental on
my system. I've brought this up on other newsgroups and evidently two
people can have the same system and set-up, but, one person can run
winamp, the other keeps getting crashes. No one seems to know why this
happens, but, it does.

If winamp causes a problem with Civ (possibly due to winamp being
resource hungry) try Media Player Classic. MPC is very light weight,
not resource hungry, doesn't install so doesn't mess up the registry,
keeps its preferences etc. in an ini file, plays virtually all music
and video formats and is free.

It would be a problem if Civ checkes the size of the files...

Actually, that would be one of the best places FOR a large email
account. I have one of the 1G free Google Gmail accounts and have made
it my default for family simply because of their tendency to send me
huge, inane emails that they are SURE I'll just love containing movie
clips, powerpoint presentations, et cetera.

This way my earthlink email account doesn't become maxed out and start
rejecting messages, and I can decide whether to actually download the
attachment or not (usually not).

I once replaced the title music with the Bridge of Khazak Dhum (sp?)
from LotR. Much cooler to be blasted with that when the title comes up
than the stock stuff.
