Civ2 MGE & ToT Scenario/Mod Preservation Project
« on: July 28, 2025, 09:53:48 am »
Hi guys! :)

Can't believe I forgot to post about this here but a few years ago I started a preservation project over at CivFanatics searching, restoring and cataloging old Civilization 2 scenarios and mods across multiple sites. I then expanded the project to include posting 'super collections' that contained hundreds of Civ2 mods and scenarios starting with the big backups of Apolyton (thanks to Solver) and CivFanatics (thanks to Thunderfall) old Civ2 download areas that were lost over time. This then thankfully inspired other Civ2 collectors to come forward and donate their huge collections to the project. As a result of this there are now (at the time of typing this) 9 super collections containing thousands of Civ2 scenarios and mods. So if you love Civ2 scenarios then I encourage you to visit the thread and download the collections as the more copies out there the better. :) And if you already have your own existing collection that you think may contain long lost scenarios then please contact me! I have publicly accessible cloud storage you can easily drag & drop a collection into and I can either name the collection after you or if you wish to stay anonymous your donation can be given a generic name.

The Civ2 preservation project can be found on CivFanatics here:

I also have a smaller preservation project for Civ1 scenarios here:

I've just kicked off a Civ3 preservation project with Gigabytes of lost mods here:

And very soon I'll also kick off a Civ4 preservation project with Gigabytes of lost mods here:
COMING SOON

I'm sure you saw that I made a CivII section in downloads, and I'd be thrilled to see it used.

No I didn't sorry, I see it there now. I see there's a 30MB cap, is that per user or per download? If the former then I wouldn't be able to stick much in there.. although when I release my Civ2 SMAC mod I could stick a copy here as that's very on topic and is looking to be around 20MB.

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
