Civ 4 Warlords - missing portraits

[techsprte]

First off, I am very pleased to have Civilization working on my mac.

However there is a weird glitch when playing Warlords. Civ leaders are all missing their portraits - the only thing that appears is facial hair.

It is more than a little strange conducting negotiations with a disembodied beard and mustache.

Anyone else having this glitch?

I've heard of this problem before for the mac port, is this the same problem? http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/?app_id=1728;forum=1;msg=31442

I saw some screenshots earlier but I can't find them at the moment, looks like a gray curtain is hung over their faces.

From what I heard, turning off anti-aliasing fixes the problem.

It's kinda weird. Gilgamesh and Lincoln for instance only have hair; Alexander appears as a giant lurking behind the Parthenon; and Elizabeth looks like she's from Mars Attacks (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7861878@N06/4607059719/).

I went through the whole list of Beyond the Sword leaders, and every single one has some freaky error or another.

EDIT: I can confirm that turning off antialiasing has defeated the weird looks. But... jaggies! :(

Could keep playing and pretend it's some sort of alternate reality :)

just send jaggies a tribute and ally with them.

Yes. Turning off anti-aliasing fixed it. Thanks for the assistance.

btw, Jaggies have refused to concede to our demands, and we are now at war! (damned jaggies)

Sigh. Other graphical glitches. Opponent civ banners are the wrong color, and the graphs in the info screen do not display properly.

None of these severely impact gameplay. Just annoyances, really. Overall Warlords runs much smoother than under Wine.

It's a garbage port. Not really Valve's fault. Just a crappy game to have in their lineup front and center on launch week.

I havent had any of those troubles when I play it. Everything has been working great for me, except for that portrait problem but after disabling anti-aliasing it stopped doing that.
