Note: Once you have the game installed and try to run it, you may get an error about a d3dx9_25.dll if this is the case, then you can either download the D3DX April Update from or reinstall DirectX9 completely. Or get an impression of "freezing," but DON'T worry just wait it through!)

(Some say this has been done on purpose, to force everyone to upgrade to Win XP) But some people have found a way to go around this.Ĭredit: Following instructions were put together by Timooo users range from 30 to 100+ on at any one time, with several discussions on the game active at any one point(although usually about game balance and specific players/popular strats and less about game content and comparison).Įven though Age of Empires III works perfectly on 2000, Microsoft has made it impossible to install. although lacking in hard statistical content, the quantity and quality of the recorded games will teach you more about the game than any amount of number crunching/stats analysing will.

Afterall, hasn't the same general information been summed up in AoE3's Wikipedia page? I do believe Wikipedia's policy on external links, particularly fansites, does agree with this stance. No fansite, whether small or large, would gain any larger attention by Wikipedia than any other. This way, there would be no partisan, nor repetitive links. I do believe that until the game is released, the Age of Empires III page at Wikipedia should only allow the official links. It's community, while larger, is equally just as important as other fansite communities. If a fan was looking for information on AoE3, he would be able to find the same general content available at HeavenGames, as well as other fansites (including your own). HeavenGames' AoE3 counterpart has the latest content available on its website. ( SoggyFrog 22:32, (UTC)) I beg to differ. Yes, there is little room for variation between AoE3 sites at this moment, but the difference between HG and those other sites is that those sites have the necessary information and HG does not.
If a fan were looking for information on Age of Empires III, there are other sites that do a better job providing content, providing summaries, and providing other sources of information. HeavenGames, while being a long-standing AoE fansite, is actually limited in its content. My suggestion is keeping a collection of links in here, and include in the article as soon as they become more than a collection of gossip/PR or have unique content. However, exceptions can, and even should be made with sites large and notable enough, and heavengames is one of them. Considering we're threading on sites with potentially duplicate content (as most news are done with press releases, magazine exclusives and speculation), until sites carry unique features such as maps, mods, strat guides and demos they have no place in the article. Honestly, I don't any use to fansites until the game is released. I included the heavengames fansite since heavengames has been the definitive "age of." fansite since the original.- Will2k 16:47, (UTC) We don't want to let these users be a google whore. If it is robust enough and there are no objections, we can put it on the main page.
To stop the constant add and revert process from fansite owners, I suggest others should request that their fansite be included from here first.
