Shogun Multiplayer Hosting

gah! I'm too stupid!

I think I found it.. and it's simple! wrong patch! I don't recall exactly, but I think some people tried it out sometime and found out people with different patches just don't see the game. Need to dig around in stw modification forum to be sure though.. the 1.02 seems disappeared from the totalwar.com sections.. I posted there asking them to place it back. meanwhile I tried via the mizu server and got a patch.. but it was for MI only, it seemed. not WE. I thought, all the same, who cares.. but it could be the cause of sasaki not seeing my game - what else could it have been?

gah! I missed games because of this

Shogun is a different game than Shogun Warlord Edition and each have different patches. Shogun uses the v1.12 patch. Shogun Warlord Edition uses the v1.02 patch.

Puzz,

I have WE. The patch I got was 1.02... but it was meant for the expansion pack.. the mongol invasion. now I'm not sure if that patch is the same as the 1.02 patch for WE.

The v1.02 works with Warlords Edition and the Shogun + Mongol Invasion expansion. The Mongol Invasion expansion turns Shogun into the same thing as the Warlords Edition. The Mongol Invasion expansion was never released in the USA. USA players had to buy the whole game again for $40 usd. I spent $30 on Shogun and then had to spend $40 on the Warlords Edition. Since the add-on modified Shogun, I had no choice but to buy the Warlords Edition since the two games are incompatible. Creative Assembly said they were going to make a compatibility patch for Shogun, but they never did.

hmmm. I will try hosting for someone else as soon I as I can. but if that fails as well, this is a really weird situation.. no router no firewall - still no hosting

Hallo denis,

Your PM box is full, so I'm answering here.
Yes I do like to play Shogun, if time permits it.
I also host the fakeserver and havne't seen you connected. Please make sure you've got the right connection details as pointed out in "New Multiplayer fakeserver".
To make appointments for games you best post in "I'm in the foyer now". Both threads are to be found in the Shogun MP forum.
You will have realized by now that the Shogun community is really small, with about 10 active players. Most of them won't connect to the lobby if they don't expect anyone particular. It's no use to connect like you do in Medieval, where there're always people in the lobby. You may end up waiting for hours without seeing anyone.
It will also help to post your timezone/location in "I'm in the foyer now".
The most active member is Drisos, he can also help to meet people.

Good Luck.

R'as

R'as is right sadly. Shogun multiplayer has only a few players left so is very quiet.

You already managed to log in right? That's nice. Some people have some trouble with it..

Well, could I have your msn adress? (if you have one, of course) if you don't mind, please add me, that is: d r i s o s _ s t w @ h o t m a i l . c o m

but of course without the spaces.

I hope we can catch up for some games some time soon
