Re: VesperBat - LA game for new players - open
 

Okay marvellous, we are up to an impressive 12 players. There is room on Cradle for a couple more, so I will still leave the game open over the weekend. But you can now start uploading your pretenders! Here's how:

- Make sure you have the same mods enabled as the game you're playing in (Preferences->Mod Preferences) although only mods affecting pretender design, such as Conceptual Balance, actually matter
- Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions. Don't set a password, since for PBEM games they're not helpful and occasionally annoying (e.g. if you need a sub)
- Go to the savedgames/newlords folder in the dominions directory, and find your pretender file (e.g. late_pythium_0.2h)
- E-mail the file to: pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net
- Crucially, you must have the game name 'VepserBat' in the subject line of your e-mail

The server should send you a confirmation e-mail when it receives your pretender. Also you can see what pretenders have been received so far at www.llamaserver.net . In fact I recommend checking the site out anyway - it will be helpful all game.

So, please try to get your pretenders in by Sunday night (GMT), when I will be getting back from my trip.

By the way, I did the shuffling of nations that Zenzei suggested. I hope that's okay with everyone - check the first post to make sure you know what nation you are!

A question about 'Cradle of Dominion'.

Are we to use the version that came with the game? I ask this because that map has a few hitches, such as a few water sites being treated as land sites. My version is slightly modified and so I might need a copy of the original if that is what we're going with.

IIRC, Cradle of Dominion map was fixed in 3.15 patch.

Hi, everyone. I am new to these forums, and I never played Dominions MP. I would like to sign in as Ulm, Black Forest, if possible.

Welcome aboard. You should send your pretender as per Llamabeast's instructions above.

If there's room, I'll destroy the world as Ermor.

Re: VesperBat - LA game for new players - open
 

Ok, Ermor's banned so I'll take C'tis.

By my count we have 14 players now, should make for a great game. However, I just checked Llamaserver and only 5 pretenders are uploaded so far. There's going to be hurry if this game is to start tomorrow.

Some people signed up for this game quite a while ago. It may be the case that some of them aren't checking up on this thread anymore. If this is the case then someone should send out a PM to each of the remaining players some time tomorrow. Just a polite update will do.
