♠♠I think that very nice person named llamabeast is making our life easier and helping with hosting, so we wait for him and then upload pretenders.

llamabeast:
Could you advice me with research settings? I am opting for difficult but I have no experience with that so if you could suggest a best solution it would be great http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

To all:
Setting are pretty much done. So look at the map. Think about pretender. And check the nations you will be facing. We will be starting soon.

I'll join this too if theres room - since its MA i'll pick any of Tienchi, Ulm or Jotunheim since i've actually tried those out in SP

Re: MA newbie PBEM game
 

Hmm, well personally I would set all of gold, resources, supplies and research to normal, since almost all MP games have them on those settings.

If you are set on having gold higher than normal, setting research to difficult might not be a bad idea since players are likely to end up with more mages.

Okay, I've created the the game, and you can all now start uploading pretenders. Here's how:

- Make sure you have no mods enabled
- Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions
- Go to the savedgames/newlords folder in the dominions directory, and find your pretender file (e.g. mid_pythium_0.2h)
- E-mail the file to: pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net
- Crucially, you must have the game name 'Urapara' in the subject line of your e-mail

You can see who's joined so far at www.llamaserver.net.

Zeldor - you seem to have two players playing Shinuyama. You can't have that.

We are already closed, sorry.

Re: MA newbie PBEM game
 

The Cambridge hosting site is down, but the mailing daemon seems to work just fine.

I just successfully emailed my pretender & got a confirmation email.

llamabeast:

Ok, so difficult research.

How do I admin the game and so on? You choose the map, set that parameters and so on or I do it through some tools?

Re: MA newbie PBEM game
 

Same here. The pretender submission this morning was confirmed, but the webserver was unreachable at the time.
