Following 5 ideologies, the development level of your country will go from uncivilized, to civilized, to non-industrialized (where European and colonial nations start as), to partially industrialized, and finally industrialized. This mod introduces objectives which your nation will need to complete to gain bonuses and the upper hand on other countries of the era, through the new ideology-based system of " industrialization". to release the dos version here today on steam honestly seems like a poor choice as it was the least favored version even when they were still being sold.The main starting date is in 1815, just after the Congress of Vienna. Col win has much better graphic resolution and hotkeys than the dos version ever had.

it was a free patch called col95.exe that they released and distributed freely for a while on their website and later I was even able to contact them directly and request a copy of the patch. I'm just saying, they dont seem to have the same exact released version that I have on cdrom.Īlso releasing the dos box version was a huge mistake as the windows version has a patch that makes it compatibale with windows xp and in turn win7.

Its almost like these new fellas are distributing earlier versions that what were released, but im not stating that as a fact. seems like all these titles are a bit off comperared to their originals, I still own their originals. Nightdive may have bought the rights, but someone somewhere seems to have edited it between them purchasing it and us playing it.
