ABOUT:
Years in the making this is a huge video tour showcasing Sid Meier's Civilization 1 in HD using CivWin (NOT CivNet) in a virtual machine with some of its best mods and scenarios. This is the first main episode in a huge series showing people how you can play classic Civilization genre games in HD on modern systems with some of the best enhancement mods out there. I try to show off some of the best fan made scenarios too (yes, there were scenarios for Civ1!), along with some lesser known console conversions, and I also show you how to play as the normally unplayable Barbarians 8th Civilization slot. To see more awesome Civilization Series / Colonization / Master of Magic / Call to Power / Alpha Centauri videos showing some of their best scenarios & mods, how to play each of them in HD, and how to play as Barbarians, check out the playlist here:

NOTES:
- If everything looks too small then you're probably viewing this video on a small screen or phone. Unfortunately Civ1 has no built in zoom controls so if you want things to be bigger then lower the Windows XP resolution inside the Virtual Machine and the game will resize to fit.

- If it feels a bit choppy and slightly schizophrenic that's because '3 different Blakes' worked on it haha! Basically I made the video in 2018, then came back to it in 2019 and added lots of stuff, and then came back to it again in 2021 and deleted a bunch of stuff & added even more new stuff lol! I tried to intermix and smooth out the transitions between old and new footage as best as I could so hopefully it's not too bad.

- Just to reiterate as there's still been some confusion. This video and these mods are about CivWin (Civilization for Windows), not CivDOS, and not CivNet. While CivNet appears very similar to CivWin it is NOT identical and these mods & scenarios are NOT compatible with it.
