How do you get more than eight civs?

I know there was a way to get up to thirtysome in C:CTP by editing a text file, how do you do it in CTP II?

Dave...

It's exactly the same way as in CTP you just edit the userprofile.txt file in the ctp directory... and change the line

NumPlayers=##

note though that just like CTP the extra players aren't covered by activision and you can't launch a new game you have to go through the editor...

Hopefully that helped..

Hmmmm...I have no problem launching a new game with up to 32 civs (inc. barbs)
Does this mean my copy is bugged

You can't launch a game since it isn't supported by the CTP code... so you can only go via the editor to get the game started... it works... trust me...
