Falkor - you're right, streamers and standards won't cause problems when creating a pretender for MP. Basically all mods which don't affect pretender design are fine. When the game's actually running though, you won't be able to use the nod - the set of mods you use in an MP game is always the same as the host, and Dominions does this for you.

Thanks Ilamabeast,

so, even with the SnS mod active I will not be able to see the graphical effects from the mod, right?

Then I will just go back to the original artwork.

Yeah. When you set which mods you want to use in "Mod Preferences", you're actually just choosing which mods to use for any new games you create. You have no control over what mods are used for games which have already started, whether SP or MP.

Indeed. It is going to be a crowded map and more of a blitz game, since you will hit on your neighbours pretty soon.

Anyway, when should we start uploading our pretenders? And, I presume, for instructions on the thingumajig of turns and pretenders, see the llamabeast server faqs, correct?

Re: EA Game \"A Blessing in Disguise\"
 
I asked llamabeast to set up the game, but it seems he has not done it yet. But as soon as the game is up, you can start by uploading your pretenders.

Re: EA Game \"A Blessing in Disguise\"
 
Okay, it's done. I called the game "Blessing" for brevity.

To send in your pretenders:

- 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 (they're not useful in PBEM, and occasionally unhelpful, e.g. if a sub is needed)
- 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 'Blessing 'in the subject line of your e-mail

Votes (yes/total)
Graphs: (9/17)
Ban Astral Corruption: (8/18)
Ban Utterdark: (7/18)
Worthy Heroes: (12/17)

So just to doublecheck... we will be playing with graphs and worth heroes on and utterdark and astral corruption will be castable right?
