BI demo in PC Gamer !!!

[Husar]

Thanks a lot, needed a workaround to get the download to work with Opera, but it works, this night just won´t end.

[King Ragnar]

Those who have downloaded it is it working can you play it?

[Lord Adherbal]

downloading at 140kbs - thanks Ragnar !

Now all I need is to get my PC back because I doubt this Celeron800 laptop will run this demo...

EDIT: I notice you zipped your BI folder, why didn't you just upload the installer ? Let's hope it'll work like this (should be able to test it in an hour or so)

[Probus]

Thanks so much Ragnar.

[Probus]

BKB can you please make available the mod you implemented to create the day battle between the Eastern Empire and the Saxons on page 4 of this thread?

Many Thanks

Works on my computer .

It looks like CA has improved game's graphics code. The game looks better than it did before and still runs smoother on my old crappy pc.(athlon 1700+,256MB,radeon9000pro)

works on my computer

i did get the graphic sheeting mentioned earlier in the thread,
i turned all setting to their lowest,
it was still happening,
so i went and grabbed the latest drivers (seems there has been a new set released)

and all is now fine

How many days the demo will stay on server.....because doesn`t work for me...it seems the file is no longer on the server or something....

[barocca]

ah,
keep trying
the file has been downloaded 150 something times in the last 2.5 HOURs

the file is still there,
i just checked 2 of the servers (it's on EIGHT)

B.

[Coldfish]

i see...thanks

[barocca]

lol
downloaded 5 times in the last 5 minutes!

[The_Mark]

Might be because a couple .org members trying to dl it in vain..

Can't get it either.

[Coldfish]

yes....my FlashGet...says "file size unknown can`t start other parts"

[barocca]

i just used default explorer and a concurrent Netscape download
(i got 2 copies in case explorer died (as it does))

i do not think they allow accelerators of any sort

[edyzmedieval]

I can't download it either....
Maybe too many are trying to download it....

P.S to Coldfish: Are you really from Transylvania?!

[Coldfish]

yes...TG Mures

[Kor Khan]

Thanks, KR! I'm just starting up my download now. Quite looking forward to it...

[edyzmedieval]

yes...TG Mures

Bucuresti

Man, I still can't.... I tried all the servers!!!!! Nothing. I use FlashGet as well, but even the pop-up doesn't appear. It's loading and loading.....

[The_Mark]

Got it! Or at least got the download coming... Just keep trying, it'll come.

[barocca]

on the first page click the big "Download" button,

then on the server listing, try right click "open in new window"
and be patient, that window will take several minutes to open
(this check took 6 minutes)
(you'll probably go frantic looking at the plain white window..)

THEN you can click the actual download...

it is still there

B.

[barocca]

dont use flashget,

just use Netscape or IE

it takes several minutes to get through all the pages to the actual download

it IS still there,

Victory!!!!

I finally got it working.....

[Coldfish]

WORKS!!....THANKS!!

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Great I'll upload my battles too then.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Ok try here and see if they work:

BKB BI Demo Battle Pack

Unzip this and copy the folders into your 'Custom' folder (The Barbarian Invasion Demo\bi\data\world\maps\battle\custom). This will also make the factions in the normal battles playable, but again CA never intended this so stability can be an issue. My new battles just use different combinations from those already on offer, are purely fictional, and aren't scripted, so they're nothing fancy, just for a laugh really. They might not be 100% stable though. I haven't had too many problems but just a warning in advance. Hope you enjoy them and find them challenging.

UK version? its a demo.

Last night when I wrote that I was thinking the demo would require RTW. This morning, I realized that a demo should be standalone and, given your response, you think so too.

Downloading now at 356KB/s

I had to look to see if its still installed and it is.

Download completed. Thanks King Ragnar.

[Coldfish]

I say BI will be better....I played the demo...and I won the battle as King Arthur but i lost the Chalons as Attila...now i`m eager to see the campaign map and new positioned settlements,as well as the historic accuracy of settlements names
