Admins, please leave this thread here,
the MI server is down and people who want to play this weekend need to know how to switch between servers.

in your game directory find the file Internet.cfg,
(Warlords Edition -or- Mongol invasion -or- whatever you called the directory)

make a copy of this file and rename it to
Internet.cfg.(!).STW.(!)

make a second copy and rename it to
Internet.cfg.(!)WE-MI.(!)

open Internet.cfg.(!).STW.(!) in notepad and edit the line
ChatserverPort = XXXX
to
ChatserverPort = 8793
save the file

open Internet.cfg.(!)WE-MI.(!) in notepad and edit the line
ChatserverPort = XXXX
to
ChatserverPort = 8794
save the file


now
rename your current internet.cfg file to Internet.cfg.(backup)

copy the .cfg for the server you want to log on to

Internet.cfg.(!).STW.(!) for the STW (original) server,
Internet.cfg.(!)WE-MI.(!) for the MI server,

rename the copy to
Internet.cfg

load the game and enjoy


WE-MI players can log onto the STW server, see and chat to all players of all versions,
but will only see and be able to join WE-MI games.

STW players on the STW server will be able to see and chat to all players of all versions,
but will only be able to see and join STW games.


The WE/MI server is down this weekend,
so use the STW server file Internet.cfg.(!).STW.(!)
you created above
