Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

pbw is simple after your empire is uploaded and i process the first turn all further turns are handled by the server you turn consists of downloading a gam file processing your turns and moves the game puts out ( http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif ) a plr file corresponding to your player number in the game each completed turn is in that player file which you upload to the pbw server after everyone has uploaded ther player file for the turn the server processes the turn and makes available another game file for download (and if your settings are right it sends the gam file to you by email also

Kerensky?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

How is 24 hours from 9:59 central time work out to 5:59pm? I don't even get home from work until 6! I'm going to miss the first turn at this rate. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

If the turn stays at 6:00, I'm probably going to have to drop from the game.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

damn i missed second game. Can more players be added when game starts? Ofcourse if you aproove guys.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Well, if this turn runs before I get home from work, you can have my spot!

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

i will gladly take your empire if you cant play, but if you can then i still want to play this game lol.
Can AI empires be ruled by human?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

I think that I'm going to have to drop out of this game because I have seemingly somehow modified my backup copy of the data files and I won't be able to reinstall until I borrow the disk from my freind again. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Hopefully there will be another one of these in the future.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

data files can be sent by e-mail. Im sure you will fix it easy, wich data is corupted?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

kerensky if you cant play maybe atrus can take over for you
and we can start another game up in a week or so
when your back in gear
and have run a test game (i can setup a test game for you ) to make sure all is good

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

astruskustuvas, please join the game "n00bz in Space" ASAP. It does not look like Kerensky will be able to play at this juncture. The game is still on turn one, so you just have to use his empire. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

i play noobz in space already (RazorTSharp).

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Oh. I did not realize that you used a different PBW name. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

I've noticed you have a slot open...would anyone object if I jump in?? I'm not exactly a noob, but i have very little skill (most games i'm in i'm in the lower 50% of players)

I've applied to join, and would be able to have a turn in by tomorrow morning (pacific time)

What do you say??

Sounds good. I look forward to playing with you guys. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Hey Fyron, the password for the Dra'kol empire does not work...could you help me out here please?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

I'm not going to be able to make this turn...correct password not yet received. Also, I have to go write my physics provincial exam, so that will take up my afternoon. I'll see how things are when i get back.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

I set the game to ALPU as soon as I found out that you did not have a correct password. The correct one has been emailed to you.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Thanks a lot Fyron. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

damn pbw is bombing me with turn files. can this be fixed somehow?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

The server still has some residual problems. I suggest emailing admin at pbw.cc with your problem. Also, disable the emailing of savegame files, so as not to be overflooded.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

It's a little late for the games I'm already involved in, but how do I upload a shipset to the PBW server? I've been all through the faq.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Go to the Files section. Make sure that you are in the Shipsets section. Scroll all the way to the bottom. There is a form to upload a new file.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

lets say i modified shipset then i should upload it on pbw site or what?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Great, cheers.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">If you want others to see the modified pictures, yes. Make sure to have a new shipset folder for it though, so that people do not have to overwrite the original Version... and naturally make sure to give credit to the original author. However, it is too late for games already started to do this. For the future.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

thanx fyron for help

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

fyron
suggestion request please activate stats display scores only please

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Score display is set to own only. The Stats page shows even more information, even of empires you have not even met... far too revealing, especially considering the game settings.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

what im talking about is the score display only

example go to noobz in space beyond the noobz

then click on the chess pawn icon at the top

i have enabled this only and i am able to select that it only display the scores nothing more
including in the game

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

What exactly is score based on, anyway? I've been googling it for ages and have come up with nada.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">From the FAQ:

1.5.4 Score is calculated as follows: Every point of minerals, organics, and radioactives, generated counts as one score point. Every point of research and intelligence generated counts as one score point. Each kt of your ships and bases counts as 10 points. Each level of researched techs counts for 200 points. No points for units/pop/colonies/systems. (Ruatha) Mothballed ships don't count to score. (Asmala)


Slick.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

let me see if i can explain this better
i am talking about in the game admin panel
there is a section of checkboxes for stats only
the score boxes for rank and score if checked will enable the chess pawn icon on the pbw server which will show rank and score but no unchecked stats

click here for my game stats page after doing this in noobz in space beyond the noobz

this is very useful as in the game i have it set for own stats only but through the pbw server admin panel i can still allow the score to show which i suspect the score and rank are the only stats that dont really tellyou anything
though they do provide incentive to work harder at overcoming others http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

edit: clarify post & double its size http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Cheers, Slick.

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

I think we need a replacement player...6 people is still kinda small...five would be even worse. And I like the AI but from my only other PBW experience...they tend to get beat up by the rest of the 'human' players...So I vote we find a replacemnt...it is still early in the game...so it should be too difficult for this to happen...we just need to have the empires password available to give to the new Emperor.

Who left?

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

Goatform.

The game does have regular AI empires, as per the game settings...

Re: Any "newer" players out there want to play "Noobz in space"
 

well beyond the noobz has a replacement applicant
name of joachim
hope noobz gets some too
maybe joachim will apply there too

Re: Any \"newer\" players out there want to play \"No
 

Ping Prismancer, Ping....

Are you still playing? The game has stalled because we need to force the turns after PBW went down, and you are the only one who can and you are the one yet to submit.
