Right click the game in your library and go Manage -> Browse local files,
Enter the Beyond the Sword sub-folder
Extract the contents of the zip-file
Right-click the BTS_Wrapper file and create a new shortcut
Edit the shortcut and change the target, add mod="RB74" at the end (*)
Move the shortcut to your desktop or wherever you easily find it

*: This part is very important; if you load the correct mod from inside Civ then it will restart using the default executable and not the wrapper.

Alright, i THINK that got it working? Was both a pain in the ass, and surprisingly easy. Shouldnt have anymore issues i hope with people joining/vice versa.

Great to hear SD! You'll also notice that it doesn't take 5 minutes to join in the late game.

Gah, clicked another. Where's that plugin again that protects from those spoiler thread clicks?

Tried twice to get into the game, and both times the game hung indefinitely on "Finishing." Not sure if something's up?
