1.0 Succession Game Discussion Thread

Ok, this seems really strange but the whole signature thing, for some reason or another, doesn't seem to work. I clik the "insert image" button. Ctrl-V the link u gave me with the senator avatar, click save settings, and then whatever I do, it just doesn't seem to want to stick. It just returnes to the previous setting.
Also, another somewhat odd question. If everyone who's a senator is gonna be a diplomat in-game, wouldn't it be better if we use (once we start the game and everything) the portait of our respective character and not the generic bearded phoenician.

Good points, Ag3nt Magnum. :yes:

I'll leave that up to Sassem, as he's in charge of the avatars, and he's also very busy creating some other things for our council thread, which should prove very helpful to other players.

As far as your sig goes....simply copying the image and inserting image won't work.

What you must do is right click your avatar, click on 'properies' (found all the way down at the bottom of the list), and copy the 'address (URL)' line. It will begin with 'http://blahblahblah (The actual address can be found in my previous post addressed to you).

Then, go into edit sig, paste the address into the edit sig box, then you must place [IMG] tags around the address. Note that the the second one has a /IMG inside the brackets. You may also want to look at the vB Code List, as this will also explain it (and many other useful features).

Once this is done, it should display properly. If your still having problems, please PM me (or X-Fire as bootsiuv).

I am also having problems but i talked to sassem about it. My error was can not use an external site for an image in sig. So what sassem told me today was that u have to be a higher member on the forums to be able to add a sig at all. With that being said we should just do some more posting, don't spam or will get in trouble, and everything will be good i hope.

Aaaah....I see.

Well...just post a lot, and you guys will be full members soon enough. :yes:

Not a huge deal right now.

Bootsiuv

okay...

The campaign is not loading, once I've selected the starting faction and pressed continue, the loading bar is not loading and eventually, it fades to a black screen, the music still playing in the background.

Right now, I'm tired, I still have a scenario to prepare for tomorrow's RPG (which probably will only be half complete, but my players tend to screw things up at the middle)

Back to square one, I'll restart everything again tomorrow evening or the day after.

So if I'm not responding that shall mean I'm busy installing

Well,i still have the unupdated version of Spoofa's mod and when i start a campaing with anyone i can't enable the script.The link to updated version doesn't work for me.

Are you sure it just isn't taking a really long time?

How much RAM do you have? It takes a few minutes for it to load on my system, and turns are around 1 minute.

I still don't have my senator sig,but don't worry,take your time.

It would appear that you won't be able to use your senator sig until your made a full member. You should be upgraded soon, and you could always go in the main hall and ask to be made a member....since your taking part in a succession game.

when using spoofas mod,i can't enable the script.Show me how button is greyed out.When I exit game i get an error that says something similar to this:
Error in ebbs_script:
Cannot recognize monitor end_script

Can Anyone see my sig?

Yes,I see it.

Look at this!
The citizens of EB will be overcome by a conspiracy of Soft Sodium biQarbonate tags, and wonder with great apprehension, what does brood under the surface of the public!

I myself have not been able to play 1.0 yet, I am still downloading.
However, it will be installed by tomorrow morning, and then I can trouble myself with this mini-mod.
Therefore I can help with no technical questions, only those directed towards gameplay and rules.
I suggest then, that in order to make Spoofa marginally less bewildered by questions, and to help him be sure of which to answer, if you have a technical problem to do with the mini-mod, or other smaller issues as have been mentioned, send him a private message.
Please remember however, that he is not an EB developer, and so you should not irritate him with queries too complicated, the mini-mod is still being tested.

As for mistakes upon nametags, this is a small error, and not worthy of a general shout or groan!
Be more patient, as Sassem has taken on many numerous projects, some of which are unknown to me, in order to make our role-play more immersive.
Perhaps, Sassem, you could write here what some of these are, and then the players may be more respective of your efforts.

Leao Magno, you are ambitious, and for this do not let other senators become your enemies in future, but for this reason you may be a priority in becoming a governor, which will give you a chance to become a general.
The way you will become so, is by being active, thorough and useful in your proposals to the council as a senator of your province.
This will be noted by all, and then you will slowly become a good example of a governor, in this case, as soon as a new family member is born in game, the life of that future governor will be yours.

I think that either Bootsiuv, Spoofa or Sassem, as I have no game yet, should start a Carthaginian campaign, and take note of all young children in the beginning.
This way we can assign future governors to some senators before the game begins.

Bootsiuv, or exalted GameMaster, I will be more available today due to several injuries obtained by my legs.
And so I will, after taking care that my horses have lavishly enjoyed their breakfast, return here regularly to meet you on X-Fire.



Council members, I will take no rest today until the rules are completed!

lol...yes wolfman. I see it.

@ferengi man

Hmmm....did you create a back up? I should have mentioned that. If not tell me, and I'll send you the file that were overwritten.

As far as the mini-mod goes, I'll get Spoofa to correct any errors ASAP, and I apologize for any inconvience. :sad:

Bootsiuv

No,i didin't make a backup:wall: What was I thinking?

You were thinking my mod was perfect. :laugh4:

jk.

Ill get it fixed.

Spoofa should have the problem fixed...if you would like an unaltered script ferengi man in the mean time... i can send you one via xfire

@ glenn

just let me know when your on xfire.

I'm discussing some rules with Boru as we speak, and I have some interesting things to share with you.

Bootsiuv

Right now I am trying your download Spoofa! I am making a new copy of EB 1.0 so I can install it and still have the unaltered EB 1.0 (lots of free hd)

HOPEFULLY the final version i need to edit.

Finally.I hope this will not affect my Pontos campaing in any evil ways.Downloading as I copy Tunak Tunak Tun lyrics.

Most fair and most honourable councillors, X-Fire has betrayed us!

For X-Fire, as you all know,
Was Spoofa's angel!
Judge, O you gods,
How Spoofa doth loved it.
This was the most.. unkindest cut of all!

For.. ingratitude!
Stronger than traitors arms,
Quite vanquished him!
And burst, his mighty heart!

And as our mantles muffled up our faces,
Even, at the base of madmatg's statua,
Which all the while ran pure blood,
Our great chatroom fell!


O, what a fall there was my countrymen,
And then I, and you, and ALL of us, fell down!
Whilst bloody treason flourished over us!

So, in light of this most terrible catastrophe, our GameMaster, a most noble and well advised man, has chosen MiRC to host our Council.
But, be not rushed to download this device until we have tested it!
And it will be tested, as I will be, most assuredly, discussing and finishing our laws within the next few hours.
When we have completed these things, we will report here both our constitution, and our opinion of the MiRC channel.

There are some other things I will discuss in the public eye here, but later.
And, as a token announcement, you will be most pleased with the idea Sassem, of his own accord and initiative, has planned for our game!
He has exerted his creativity, and founded it well in several projects for the benefit of our games!
So be not in haste to denounce his accidental errors, please!


Wait! I have found, to my resentment, that mIRC seems to be a "Try before you Buy" offer!
This cannot be allowed in our Senate, as we have a great expenditure on things both military and civil, and cannot be giving mnai for the maintenance of our podium also!
I must be gone for now, but I will await further details from our CultMaster before downloading.

Spoofa,your mod works perfectly now.So we will be using mIrc.I don't want to :furious3: j/k.The evalatiion copy is only 30 days and i spend all my cash on books.This also seems to be much more complicated.I liked x-fire more...

How could the gods be so cruel to betray we loyal phoenicians? Was it not punishment enough to throw us from our beautiful land of canaan? So what happened really?

I'm tired and going to bed :inquisitive: :inquisitive: :inquisitive:


ps there is litlle teaser on his way:laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:

hope you like it and that is show right and in good order on all your monitors


ps the teaser is sponserd by Hertog Jan beer

MIRC's free.... sept it bugs the crap out of you everytime you start it up after the first 30 days.

mIRC is out...I'm not going to require a program that will require someone to pay $20.

That being said, if X-Fire proves too unstable (as it has recently....the chat rooms freeze), we may just be forced to do away with live council meetings.

It is unfortunate, but may be unavoidable, as a council meeting with everyone having 20 ims up is just ridiculously hard to manage and foolishly complex.

I'm glad the issue with the mod has been resolved.

Sassem's spoiler can be found HERE

It's essentially a dynamic building browser for all cities in the empire....once its complete. Sassem wanted me to stress that this was an early draft, and the template may change, but things like this will be made available so players who aren't Shophet will have a better understanding of what's going on.

Bootsiuv

EDIT: We're looking into other methods of providing our players with a stable, free live chat room. It may be a temporary X-Fire issue, but it is something that can't happen if 10+ players meet online to discuss things...

Is it defenitive... about Mirc?
