Stw Mp

[TosaInu]

Hello,

It appears that both STW titles can no longer be played on the official server. It's possible to host an alternative one, I received a few PM's about this. Who's interested in playing STW MP?

[PaolinoPaperino]

Count me between the interested.

[Medieval Assassin]

I would, if I could figure out the whole register thing, Im so lame...

[Chimpyang]

I'll still play, just give me time to be on...

[Sasaki Kojiro]

ShinIguana is interested.

I'd play too, but I left my CD at home

The official MP register thing is likely down as well. Alternatives will be provided. What you need to do is copy one textfile to the gamedirectory.

I'll still play, just give me time to be on...

Agree, it's probably not a very large group, so it's best to schedule one or more times. It's of little use to wait for 3 hours in an empty foyer. It's better when someone's around to reboot it if necessary.

Perhaps we should host some kind of tourney?

[Puzz3D]

I'm interested in playing original STW v1.12 or WE/MI v1.03 or v1.05. I'm not interested in playing v1.02. There is also the STW mod for MTW if the stats would get fixed.

[PaolinoPaperino]

"Perhaps we should host some kind of tourney?"

pls, no. Just games for fun. If there will be a tourney, the "foyer" will be split in 2 groups, who is playing the tourney, and who does not.

About the version to play with, I have no problem to try something that is not the 1.02, just decide if Shogun or WE.
Can be organised to have the server running only during the weekend?

[Mithrandir]

I'd occasionally play, if it's not too much of a hassle to get online...

[Medieval Assassin]

I would play, I have WE...

[ah_dut]

i'm interested but suck at STW and only have WE

[Daevorn]

i would play, but i've never played online

i have WE

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Anskar says he's interested.

[TosaInu]

Hello,

So, we have about 10 people then. We have to decide about STW or WE (stats) and time. I think PaolinoPaperino made a good point too.

There's the SamuraiOnSunday, this may be a good day. It's best to have a narrow window to ensure audience (server can run whole day, but you need people to play ) 3 people say they have only WE, so that skips STW classic. None of the things is very complicated, but I guess we better stick to the 1.02 patched game (no custom stats at first) and ensure everyone manages to get online. Playing online requires STW + MI or STW WE patched to 1.02 beta http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/STW/patch.shtml . Then you just need to copy a textfile to the STW directory and you're set.

I'll post the textfile to log onto the server tomorrow.

config file to play STW & STW WE/MI on this server.

The server will be up today starting now. It's configured so people can access it, but I appreciate if someone checks to make sure.

[PaolinoPaperino]

I'm in Tosa, it's working.
Thx again

..a bit empty..

[TosaInu]

I'll join then. :)

[Jochi Khan]

Greetings Tosa

Installed the necessary to log onto the server.
Got as far as the ...logging on...page but no further.
Music still playing and screen moving.
That was at 10.30pm GMT.
Maybe the server was not up at that time?

.....Jochi

I'm in Tosa
23.35 GMT. Just me on my own but I'm here.

....Jochi

[Daevorn]

i'm having problems installing shogun...
paolino is helping me, i hope it will be fixed soon

[Puzz3D]

I tried to join the server about 16:00 GMT, but I think I was too early in the day.

[ah_dut]

Could some people agree on a time as i'm english and well... don't know what time to be on.. anyways, could someone put apost for when they're online and in GMT thanks

[PaolinoPaperino]

Hm,
me and other guys from the italian comunity will log on on sunday evening 21 CET=20 GMT.
Hope to meet ya there.

[TosaInu]

Hello,

The STW server is running now. It will remain online for at least 12 hours from now. Arrange battles with your friends and have fun. PM me or post here when the server has problems.

[Chimpyang]

Can yougive me an idiotproof walkthrough on how to get on it?

[TosaInu]

http://212.238.194.39
config file to play STW & STW WE/MI on this server.

Visit that url and download the config files. Just install that in your STW WE root and play MP.

Or open internet.cfg in the STW root directory and replace the content by:

ChatserverIPAddress = 212.238.194.39
ChatserverPort = 8793
NewsserverIPAddress = daphne.eagames.co.uk
NewsserverPort = 8797
ShogunTotalWarWebsite = www.totalwar.com

and play.

[Chimpyang]

Cheers, i'll do that now..

Hello Tosa,

Have been trying to log on to the server for last 1.1/2 hours.
Can only get to the..... logging on.... screen.
Time now is 20.30 BST
Is the server down?

...Jochi

Just noticed times on postings. Looks like the server was ...up...Saturday.
Thought it may have been today (Sunday)

[PaolinoPaperino]

Well, now I am in.

It's up today Jochi, we've played a couple of 2v2, 3v2 and 1v1. All great fun.

Greetings, i've been lurking this forum and played Shoggy single for a long time now but I just now thought, heck, why not try it out online? The AI doesn't really give me much of a challenge anymore so i'll probably be joining you guys next time the server goes up.

Looking forward to getting a good whopping! ;)
