Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

Neither can I.

I get 'waiting for info'.

Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

Same here.

Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

Likewise.

Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

cannot connect

Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

Ditto

Re: Increasing the turnaround time?
 

The game crashed, some memory related error; a first for me.

It is back up and set to 36hr turnaround. Please post here if you still can't connect.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

should we patch 3.06?
surely yes if strages do

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

Strages has to patch first. The usual sequence of events is everyone does there latest turn with 3.04, then the host patches, then all the players do.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I can't connect again - "waiting for game info" again.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

trying to connect crashes my my system right now

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

hrm I am at work, but seems like something bad is going on... maybe a player patched and that is causing problems?

I haven't patched yet. I have also never had the error I saw last night before (which seems like it might be the same error again) although I can't tell until I get home in 4 hours.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I can't connect - "waiting for game info"... tried with patched ver - does not work at al... red screen flashes:)

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

people that have patched will cause the server to crash since I have not patched.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

connected with 3.04 version but the server is down

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

i have not patched yet, but it still crashes my system to try to connect to this server.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I have not restarted it yet. Nation 12 at least is what is causing it to crash, for me to restart I need to either delete nation 12s turn? or patch.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I have not restarted it yet.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

Go ahead and patch it - that's what I'm doing with my server there doesn't seem to be much choice in the matter.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

The nation of Mictlan wants to trade for Skull Mentors and one set of earth boot, one dwarven hammer. Can forge Armor of Twisted Thorns, Brazen Vessel, Thistle Mace, lifelong protection, soul contract, heart of life. Soon for trade (sooner with skull mentors http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif: black heart, blood thorn, hell sword, water bracelet, boots of youth

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I need death gems, I can get you a hammer and earth boots. PM me.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

I can't connect to the server.

Re: Ministry of Trade - Offers
 

Still unable to connect. Wont be able to try again until some time tomorrow.

Server problems
 

Can't connect to server to upload my turn.

Someones probably used 3.06 to do there turn and crashed the server again.

I love new patches but they cause utter chaos with MP games. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Server problems
 

I still can't connect - I assume you'll tell us here when you've restarted it Strages? I'd hate to miss my turn because the problem was at my end and I assumed the server was still down.

Re: Server problems
 

a tip. Copy dom3.exe and name the copy dom304.exe, then patch

so to play the old version use dom304.exe to play
to play new version use dom3.exe

Re: Server problems
 

good idea manuk. Patching now

Re: Server problems
 

Okay cool, I see it's back up again. Good stuff. Will take my turn later on this evening.

Re: Server problems
 

How come we're on a 48-hour timer now? I thought the conclusion was that 36 hours would be enough? Whatever people think best, but one turn every two days makes llamabeast sad. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Server problems
 

The power of Sauromatia is broken. After twice rebuffing our offer of friendship, the bloody god demanded the entirety of the Amazon noble line be consigned to the sacrificial pits. Tales of the killing fields at the foot of the holy ziggurat made their way back and took hold deep in the hearts of the Sauromatian soldiers. Their replacement army was set upon left and right by our cunning ambushers, Sauromatian soldiers disappearing in the black of night never to be heard from again. Tales of the bloody fate of those who oppose the will of the bloody god spread, along with starvation and disease as the skies darkened and the very rain which fell upon their lands turned to rotting toads. The last army of Sauromatia cowered in the mountains as their nation rapidly dwindled, too fearful from having been bloodied every time they turned their back to leave their camp even under the noon sun. Starvation and desperation take deep hold in their souls as they become resigned to their fate.

Now the armies of Inferno ravage their lands and bring their daughters to our pits to worship the bloody god with their essence. Hoards of imps descend every month, tormenting all they come across. As the countryside burns, the army of Mictlan, lead by our great prophet and legendary tactician Tlahuixcalp marches to the last Sauromatian stronghold. The blood of the amazons will run down the holy ziggurat within the fortnight, and all shall know Hi Bi Kami as the delusional snake he was.

Re: Server problems
 

I temporarily set it to 48 to make sure people had a chance given all the patch issues.

Re: Server problems
 

Looks like Atlantis took a big hit there. Would the fishy folk like tell what happened? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

They are the frog people, oceania would be the fish people.

Re: Server problems
 

Server appears to be down.

Re: Server problems
 

Yes it does.

Re: Server problems
 

Server still down, 48hrs nearly now. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Server problems
 

Hope it's not auto-hosting! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Server problems
 

So...anyone know what's going on? Server still seems to be down.

Re: Server problems
 

Strages must had some kind of problem i guess.

Re: Server problems
 

Has anyone got a handy wish spell?

If so wish for Strages...

And there was much sadness in the land...
 

I will be very, very, very sad if this game has died. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/Sick.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: And there was much sadness in the land...
 

It would be incredibly disappointing if this game ends.

Does anyone know Strages? Perhaps we can get the game files and have someone else host it?

Re: And there was much sadness in the land...
 

I'd be willing to take over hosting.

Re: And there was much sadness in the land...
 

Still no word on Strages, eh? Kind of a bummer.

Re: And there was much sadness in the land...
 

Maybe some of you guys will post in the Game Server thread.
http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...o=&fpart=1

Personally I think Shrapnel should build and manage a multiplayer server. One well built server would handle ALL multiplayer game currently being played (and more).

I don't even want to know how many hours I put into this game... most in the build up phase to anticipation of what was to come. And now its possible that it was all for nothing. Very sad.

Of course I'm still hopefully Strages will return... even if its a week from now.

Re: And there was much sadness in the land...
 

Same here Maltrease, agree with you 100%. This has happened in 2 games I am in at the moment, this and cradle of dominion. Putting 40-50 turns play into a MP and then have them just end is sad.
