Four Testers Wanted for Historical Battle

[TWFanatic]

You mean on Hamachi? We can just use an existing network, such as EB01. No need to create a new one.

[Wolfman]

Ok. Cool.

[Gebeleisis]

EB-MP ?

[TWFanatic]

Very sorry guys, something has come up at work and I won't get home til late. Can we do this tomorrow, same time (20 GMT)?

[TWFanatic]

Scratch that, it's been cancelled. I'll be there. Sorry again.

[Wolfman]

What time would 20 gmt be in american Eastern Standard time?

[Gebeleisis]

well about in 1 hour i suppose?

[TWFanatic]

@Wolf: 3 pm, which is about 40 minutes from the time I posted this and an hour from when you and Geb posted.

[Hax]

Let's do this, guys.

[TWFanatic]

Hax and I are on hamachi, the network is EB01.

[Gebeleisis]

instaling hamachi now,btw why dont you guys come over on xfi?

id : gebeleisis31

[Gebeleisis]

btw what is the pass?

[TWFanatic]

Pass is EB.

[Hax]

Where is Wolfie?

[Wolfman]

Hey guys. I just Pm-ed TW Fanatic I just finished school i should be on in a little bit.

[TWFanatic]

Well, it doesn't work anyways. We're not even compatible for custom battles. Guess this just won't work.

EB .81 worked for MP, but 1.0 doesn't seem to.

[Gebeleisis]

yes its a pity.. so another problem to be solved i guess,at least for 1.1

















w00t 100 post and only in the EB section

[Wolfman]

I'm on X-fire with Geb. Is Gamespy still an option?

[bovi]

One of you has given the others his map.rwm, so they are identical? You can check with the validation tool to see which files are different in your builds.

[abou]

Yeah guys, don't be so quick to give up. I worked too damn long on that battle to have something like this stop it.

We'll figure it out. And since Bovi is a bug-killing god not much can stop us.

[Redmeth]

Doesn't using minimods affect the compatibility between you guys?

First things make sure of the map.rwm thing but the only reason why it can be different is because you don't have the same files...

[bovi]

Minimods will screw it up, I'm sure. The validation tool output should be identical for all of them.

[TWFanatic]

I have a separate install for my modded game. The other is a clean copy of 1.0. I think it's the same for everyone else. If any of you guys have mods on your copy, then speak up now so we can eliminate them then try again. But if we all have clean copies, then I'm sorry but it doesn't work as it is.

On a side note, is this battle meant entirely to be an MP battle? I thought I saw a script file...and script is unnecessary in MP battles I would think. Will there be an SP version made?

Also, I think I'll open it up in the battle editor and look around. I've got to see this thing.

[Wolfman]

I'm just have Bovi's fixes installed right now thats about it.

[Hax]

Okay, to everyone. Install a clean new folder in your Rome - Total War folder called 'ebmp', no fixes, nothing.

[Wolfman]

you mean i'm going to have to uninstall then reinstall my EB installation? Thats going to take some time.

Oh by the way can each of you give out your X-fires? That way i can add you to my buddy list.
Mines is thelycan25. They wouldn't let me use wolfman.

[Admetos]

Just re-name your current EB folder and extract a new one from the installer with 7zip.

[Gebeleisis]

mine is clean so i am up for another try

[paullus]

we worked on a scripted sp version, but even with heavy scripting AI behavior is really really pitiful. i hope this works, because the battle map and setup and everything is really cool.

[abou]

So yeah... how is that testing?
