MP Game - Newbie Game (by JDScherrey)

[starwarsluke]

I am confident that I can manage twelve hour hosting. Also I believe I have now uploaded my pretender but since this is the first network game I have succesfully managed to play I am not sure so if someone would double check for me it would be greatly appreciated. I also have another question which is, is there some way to stop another player from going and overwritting your pretender for your nation in a network game?

I am not too sure because this is a first for me as well but I am almost positive your pretender is loaded up because it says caelum is controlled by a human player now. Hmm I went to test the override thing and when you select a nation it asks you if you wish to override it. Now will it actually do it if you hit ok...I am not sure. I don't know if the admin has to delete the pretender or if it will actually let you override. I think everyone here is their first time on multi except norfleet but he is just hosting.

If you hit okay after trying to upload into an occupied slot, it will overwrite the existing pretender with yours.

[Aku]

Thanks for the info Norfleet. I will tell my friend also that he can just overwrite the current Man prentender that shouldnt be there. Then all we need is JDScherrey to upload their vanheim pretender and we are set.

[Norfleet]

Vergoot. Once everyone's up, just let me know, and I'll put the game on 24h/quickhost with the settings below.

To avoid confusion, it'd be nice if drool restated what settings he wanted again, so I don't have to dig them out of the spamscroll and risk being confused by something somebody else said.

As for whatever time you ladies want to setup for a blitz session....with so many people, that's unlikely. And not my problem.

should we start the 24 hour hosting tomorrow(sunday) after all pretenders are uploaded? only problem is that there is no word yet from JDScherrey.

[drool]

i cant understand this. why is Jds ip logged, but man himnself is not a round? has he died, or is he using public comp? should we start without the starter of this thread? there is so many questions without answers.. it makes me all dizzy..

[Aku]

ok the real pretender for man is uploaded

jds is vanheim but hasnt uploaded yet

we have everyone uploaded but jds...anyone heard from jds at all?
