to pharnakes - the link for the map.rwm doesnt work it says teh file has been removed
Some one post a valid link and I'll edit it into the first post then.
Make sure it is a new map.rwm, delete the one in your folder atm, then start and close eb, then take the map.rwm and host it here: http://uploaded.to/
Then i'll edit it in replacment for the old one in the first post.
here ya go pharn, its not download.com thingy but my google webpage has the link on it
http://europabarb.googlepages.com/mapfile
Done, I downloaded it and re-uploaded it to make it a one step process.
im' playing now with taht new map.rwm and MP works again so it seems!
my x-fire name is desvott
pharnakes can you add the bit about where to put that Map.rwm folder
is goes to rtw/eb/data/world/maps/base
thanks
Done, also,which edu are you playing with?
Hey I just wanted to ask you what do you feel about mp battles having the old skies and reflections.
Many people are complaining about the long load times so, it might help to use the older versions.
Cheers...
i would definitely be on that, wheer do i get that stuff at? also the mp edu is constantly being added to with the local mercs from each faction being put in so if yall want more complete mp edu for factions other than rome just holler at me and i'll send it to ya, also if you play a faction other than getai or rome, holler at me as i would like a list of the mercs taht can be found in your immediate area so i can add to the unit list
thanks
Matt
i dont think adding even more mercenaries is a good idea. isnt there already a great variety available? you are not trying to recreate v0.8's factions rosters are you?:laugh4:Quote:

I just want the dag on MP working by the time I am done with midterms :wall:
I don't want another "oh no its not compatible"
... nor do I want another "oh no I am missing C,Y,Z units"
...and I really don't want "HEY WTF IS THIS S****??? WHY IS THIS MERC/REGIONAL CHEAPER/STRONGER THAN MY REGULAR UNIT!!!! I AM GONNA **** somebody I **** this **** them M******, *****, **** (thats me talking :yes:)"
lol neo the stuff is ready and waiting just make sure you have the map.rwm from the first post of this thread and get whatever version mp edu is going around from me and you shouold be good
WHOOOOO!!:laugh4: :2thumbsup: :beam: :yes: :egypt: :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup: :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: :yes: :beam: :beam: :beam: :egypt: :clown:
I have done it!!
My stupid university internet blocking is overridden:2thumbsup:
Now I just need a new comp ( 2 weeks) and I will return to the EB mp comunity!
So, who's still active? Bovii? mAIOR? Sarkis? Bonny? Lovejoy? Demulon? Kinghannibal?
We had some great games, hope some of you are still playing:yes:
I'll be active after this weekend when my exams are done ^_^
Right now it's only Rugby 2008 for me...
Cheers...

I haven't played since we last played... And my internet connection is still screwy.
eb mp does work as far as i can tell the only problem is the mp edu leaves something to be done because some factions havel ike 40 units to choose from while otherse have like 15
This is good to hear, glad you are all still around.
Unfortunatley you still won't see me on X-fire.Quote:

As eb is played through hamachii anyway, there are no problems for me. I only found this out last night, so that is why you haven't heard form me untill now.
I assume that this is simply the same issue that the custom battles encounter, and can be solved by the same procces of swaping in a custom edu.Quote:

EH?
So what's the difference between the custom mp edu and the single player custom edu?
the costum mp edu is missing units.
for example: the Romani faction doesn't have ANY of its legions, the KH doesn't have their phalangite and a few other units.... and the list goes on. But like mad said, the number of units missing varies from faction to faction, some are missing a lot, others are just missing a few.
and that REALLY ticks me off :wall:
It is the other way round!Quote:

and that REALLY ticks me off
In the costum EDU the factions have ALL of their factional units, while in the sp edu those units are not visible, because of the many different units which care available to each faction.
the Multiplayer edu has all the factional units but for some factions it doesnt seem right, ie. the romani have like 30 units but other factions i'm not sure how many but i know the KH are indeed missing their phalangite so i had to add them in and i dont know about other factions because i dont know their full unit list.

Last time i tried the mp edu with KH was in july with Helix 3, there i could still select th KH phalangites. Seem to get lost during the udpate process.
All factions have more units than they had in vanilla.Quote:
...and that REALLY ticks me off
Some factions still have less than others that might be correct. But not all factions are equal in this case.
Tha AS have recruited celtic, steppe, persian and hellenic soldiers throughout their empire, so they can use them in costum/mp battle, too. It would not make much sense for the Saka rauka to get celtic units would it. It wouldnt make sense to give them the complete hellenic rooster.
Nonononononononononononono...... u misunderstood the post, but thats ok it was vage to begin with, and only the few people with whom I've played MP get it.Quote:

didn't work in .81x don't know about 1.0 though... however, I highly doubt that they work since regular MP is messed up pretty bad. :wall:Quote:

BTW, people, sorry to have to ask this of you, after being so in favour of Xfire all this time, but if you want to contact me, you'll need to use either msn or skype.
MSN: pharnakes@hotmail.co.uk
Skype: pharnakes
I know mAIOR has skype at least, but I'm afriad I deleted you when I had to change account, and now I can't remeber your skype.:shame:
Miguel dan sliva.... something like that, yes?:laugh4:
Miguel da Silva Batista :)
I've added you again on skype :p
Cheers...
hey man why would u get rid of of xfire?????? It is good since u can chat WITHOUT leaving the game. U can also use ur microphone if u want (although I don't recommend it for MP as it uses up more RAM).Quote:

Its so anoying, I could lok at any porn or anything on the internet, yet it blocks perfectly legitimate things like x fire.:wall:
is it worth digging it now, isnt 1.1 not far away from the release?Quote:

So I can tell you with 100% cerntenty that EB 1.1 will NOT be out for AT BARE MINIMUN another 5 weeks. And what happens in after 5 weeks from today Dec 4th 2007???? 2nd Semester of College BEGINS! So NO more resting and free time to play in mid/late January!!!
NOW starting in mid December is the PERFECT time to play. It is the PERFECT time to spend HOURS in MP!!!!
Do NOT discourage the only man capable, willing, and able of making such fixing to the files. Because last time I MP Bovi NOBODY in the team was fixing it, and I am both too dumb to do it myself, and too short on time. :wall:
edit... oh snap that came a little too angry sorry Sarkiss :shame: ... but please really don't discourage Pharnakes, if u can lend the man a hand as I am too dumb to do it. :no:
Really, you say such nice things about me. :smug:
Actualy I could do with a hand, at least until I get my new comp, IIRC you had skype, Neospartan, sergio garcia? not sure thats right, so best if you add me. I just need somebody who can actualy see the units ingame, cause I can't play at all, ATM.
its cool:laugh4:Quote:

You do realise, that for every line of code I do, you all owe me a balloon?:clown:
there ya go:balloon2: one in advance. now, get to work!!!:whip: :laugh4:Quote:

All factions have acces to all of their faction units and some selected regionals. Do you want to redo the stats and costs?
Well, apparently not. All units, I mean.
FACTIONAL UNITS are missing :yes:Quote:

So, who wants a mp match?
Like I said, no x fire, but if I'm lit up, drop me a pm or message me on msn or skype, see above.
You've got no time to play multiplayer Pharnakes. MAKE THAT MAP! :whip:
Anyone up for EB mp this weekend? Note though, that I'm too lazy to have x-fire and other programs so it'll just be plain playing through the admittedly buggy - but acceptably stable - lobby.
Rules suggestion:
- 20k or 25k mnai
- no artillery
- match factions historically (i.e. no Lusotannan vs Saka and so on)
- pick any troop composition you like. My experience was that the mnai limitation above will automatically force you to pick historical and balanced armies
- any historical battle reenaction (through custom battle though) suggestions are welcome, but the actual battle tactics needn't follow history.

OK, people, don't know what strange things you have been doing untill now, but this is how to put in the mp edu for 1.0:
Find your RTW route folder. Go into eb folder. Find the folder called mp custom game edu. go into it, copy the custom_edu, and paste it into the same folder. Then, rename one of them to export_descr_unit, and copy that one.
Go up, then in to the data folder, and paste the file into eb/data. Tell it to overwrite.
N.B. If it doesn't ask to overwrite, then you have done something wrong.
When you want to retrun to sp, repeat the process, only use te file that you find in eb/sp game edu backup, though I personaly would recomend two installs of eb, one for mp and one for sp (so you can apply the fixes, which mp runs without as deafualt.
How to make two installs of eb. Thanks to the genius of Dol Guldur, eb is as of 1.0 is now a pure mod-folder instalation. This means you can have two copies of it running out of the same vannila install, without the risk of clashes. To do this find your 1.0 intalation, and right click on it. Press extract to eb1.0, and let it run.
When it is finnished, open the folder and inside should be a folder called eb. Rename it eb mp, and paste it into your rtw folder. Then, go to your desktop and find your 1.0 shortcut. Copy and paste it, and rename one ebmp. Then right click on ebmp, and go to properties. Change the traget line from mod:eb to mod:ebmp. Press apply and then ok, and you should be sorted.
Yeah folks of if any of u guys can get in X-fire and/or skype and run a couple of MP battles to make sure this thing is working.
Unfortunatly I got exams this week and next week and I can't play/test :wall:
have you tested this?Quote:

Nope, but bovi has several times specificaly said that eb 1.0 is a pure mod folder installation, which is easily provable if you look at what is acctualy inside the instaler. Given that, this is guaranteed to work. I hope.:embarassed:
pharn.... always test stuff always test stuff. No matter what has been said.
pharn i dont mean to keep pounding this point but the original mp edu that comes with EB is, I believe sorely missing units for many factions so you may wanna look at the few edu's that people have posted for new ones
Which units?
I haven't noticed any.
The link to map. mw in the first post seems to be dead. Can anyone post a link to map.rmw?
Right, I think I'm going to have to try out multiplayer. My Xfire name is: megasadmetos.
I think it's probably safer to have a seperate vanilla install for MP, like I guess was used for MP on 0.8. This is because the text files in the mod-folder "EBMP" will still be referencing the mod-folder "EB" for skins, models, etc. I don't know if this will cause instability, but today I couldn't get MP to work with Malik until I had a seperate MP install. There's probably a logical explanation, but before I had a seperate MP install, I did try just a new mod-folder like you explained, but that didn't work, which led me to think it's better to have a seperate install for MP. Of course, everything I just wrote is probably wrong...Quote:
