And C'tis is even a very good nation for this map, with a Conjuration 30 bonus site. I would even prefer C'tis to Machaka.

Server back up sorry for the delay folks.

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

Waiting on C'tis. If he really doesn't want to play any more, we should really do something about it.

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

did you set the server to 48h QH? We still have 17 hours to play turn 5! and it has been more than 24 hours...

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

I think it was because the server/game was restarted.

Can you set C'tis to AI as they have staled the Last 4 turns...

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

question?
i am new and i'm sure everyone else knows the answer, but if everyone is done early, do we run the turn early?
(i would love faster early turns)
question? if C,tis becomes AI and someone later would like to play them is it possible?

and Lastly i tried the hotlink to start game but the
"C:\games\dominions2\dom2.exe --tcpclient --ipadr soapyfrog.no-ip.info --port 2345 --nonationsel
(and i did ajust it for my directory location)
did not work w/ xp -alternatives?

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

Ctis is now AI... sorry Daesthai!

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

I use

--tcpclient --ipadr soapyfrog.no-ip.info --port 2345

And that works for me.

If everyone finsihes their turn the game will host.

I dont think we can make Ctis human again... at least game says its irreversible..

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

I can't seem to get the shortcut working either. This is the latest variation I've tried:

"C:\Program Files\dominions2\dom2.exe --tcpclient --ipadr soapyfrog.no-ip.info --port 2345"

can someone point out the error of my ways? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome
 

Is that an exact quote? If so then you need tomove that " after 2345 to be after dom2.exe

short explanation
I know it doesnt seem logical but its true. You are only quoting up to the exe

longer explanation
The only reason Win wants the quotes at all is because the blanks in the path to the exe mess it up. So it only wants the to clarify the exe call, after that its back to business as usual. Another way to do it without the confusing quotes would be...
C:\Progra~1\domini~1\dom2.exe --tcpclient --ipadr soapyfrog.no-ip.info --port 2345
which isnt bad to say in instructions since it works for both new Wins and old Wins. Its the old Win98 way of saying "6 letters of a directory name that is too long so the ~1 or ~2 is saying grab the first (or second one) that matches it"
