Great Nations

[CodyJarrett]

I'm trying to start a new game in Great Nations. The game runs but whenever I click "NEW GAME" I get the following error: "you forgot to run gnpak.exe"

I thought that I could just generate a random world within the main game without having to use "gnpak_m68k.exe" to create maps.

Has anyone had any success in starting a game?

Thanks, that version works.

What is that game Cody?

Never heard of it and don't see it on HOL.

[CodyJarrett]

It's a unfinished Civilization clone written by Toni Wilen.

utri007 suggested adding it to the HOL so I'm grabbing screenshots.

By Master Wilen?
