MP Game - Artifact Game - running 48hr qh

Easy - the host turns graphs off before starting the game.

And just a reminder - human pretenders only.

humans and monoliths right?

OK, we're live!

First thing to do: Go to the first post in the thread and download the revised Shahrivar map. This is the official version of shahrivar that will be used for this game and all players must download it (its quite small, dont worry). Unzip it and place it in your maps folder.

Please note that it contains no artifact or starting location information - this is intentional. The server knows what artifacts you need and where you will start. I am only warning you here so that you do not try to use this map as a practice map.

Next thing to do is to connect to the server and upload your Pretender. You do this simply by having your pretender created in dom2 for the correct nation. Then connect to the server at

IP: 67.190.105.206
Port: 2001

And select your nation from the list. It will switch to "human controlled". Once that is complete, just hit the disconnect button at the bottom.

Ready.

Ready (how come the map downloads in like 2 seconds from, this thread?

[archaeolept]

heh, shovah - the .map file is only a small text file that basically lays out the attributes of the provinces/map. The huge file is the .tga, and that's the picture you actually see when you look at the map...

i'm still trying to figure out a theme - when do y'all want all the pretenders to be in?

[Ironhawk]

Well we've had a couple days to practice already so I'm hoping to get them in as soon as possible. If not tonight then tomorrow I would hope.

[shovah]

so im guessing i still need the full map?

[Morkilus]

if you don't have the .tga you can't play. Better start getting it if you have dialup like me
