Any news on SEV Music?
 

I'm not a fan of SE. I baught SEIV Gold a while back but never really played it :\. Mainly because I could never find any good MP games... Anyway, that's beside the point. SEIV music/ambience SEIV music/ambience sucked, period. I'm a musician and I know what kind of music/ambience SEIV needed. So, to the question:

Any news on SEV music?

For multiplayer games, visit http://pbw.cc/
Zillions of games to join, web interface for easy game management and autohosting.

It has been hinted at that SE4 will be getting support for MP3s, too.

I've been there. It's almost impossible to find a game that's not needing replacements or has inactive players. I once joined a game... nothing became of it. I gave up. Haven't we played Dominions 2 together? You know I'm not a noob. Maybe I see you in IRC.

You should hit "Currently Open Games" instead of "All Games"
New games are colour coded green for easier picking too.

P&N Syndicate Wars will be starting in the next 2-3 days, if you want to join... there are already enough players so there won't be any delays.
Its a unique game, where the 8+ Pirate races will compete to see who can gather the most resources in 100 turns or so, by mercilessly plundering the hapless normal races. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I haven't played Dom2 multiplayer, though I did post a couple times on the forum...
I'm always on the #spaceempires IRC channel though.

With pretty much any game I've ever played, I pretty much expect half the players to drop

Re: Any news on SEV Music?
 

Yeah, it's hard to find a sizable group of players that are both dedicated to not missing turns and won't give up after their first serious setback. A notable exception was my very first PBW game, where everyone was required to express their dedication by paying a $20 entry fee to the Race to SEV Tournament. Missed turns were few and far between in general, and the quite small number of dropouts were replaced quickly. If you're willing to settle for 1-on-1, notify Alneyan (this thread would be a good place) that you'd like to join the King of the Hill League, and you'll be set up with an opponent in fairly short order. Otherwise, expect dropouts, try to find or make a particularly interesting game, set up your own tournament, or just give up and don't play.

The first 6 Carrier Battles mod games have a pretty good track record.
Out of a total of 23 players signed up for the various games, only one dissapeared before they were crushed.

#7 is full and about to start, while #8 is open.

Argitoth,

I tried to listen to some of your .mp3s on your site but it seems they would only play for 2 seconds - anything I'm doing wrong?

Re: Any news on SEV Music?
 

Hmm, try right-click "save as".

Re: Any news on SEV Music?
 

I tried a 'save as' yesterday as well but didn't have any luck. I tried both Windows Media Player and my Quintessential player but same problem.
