I'll leave to Stormbinder to actually create the game, if that's what he wants.
ROFL!

You too Zap? I thought you gave up trying to do it. So I modified .map myself, downloaded stupid WinZip from the net, renamed both files, packed it and and uploaded it.

Now Mose's server is the proud owner of two Zen's Cradle maps. Mine is called "cradlez14". I mean - you can't get too much of good stuff, right?

So, are we officially restarting?
Can I delete the old game?

All right guys.


I think it is quite clear by now that the Yossar's server is not working for us, unfortunately. With game crashing one or more times each turn, and Yossar leaving on vocation next week, I think we should persue other opportunities.


Thanks to encouragement from Zapmesiter and our combined efforts to upload the map , there is now new game on Mose's server, in the slot that become available just few minutes ago. The name of the game is (surprise! ) Throne_Of_Heavens.


If it is ok with everybody let's upload our pretenders there and use it as our host for this game. All game settings are identical of course to Yossar's game, the only difference is that it is not possible to turn OFF scores on Mose's. Some pleayers don't care about scores, some (like myself) dislike them. But hopefully it is not that critical difference for each of you.

I appologize for all these unconvibience. But as you know, it is not something I have any control over. At least nobody invested too much time into this game yet, since we only managed to get to turn 4 by now. On new server things should go smoothly and painlessly.

So what do you think guys? Is everybody Ok with Mose's server?

Regards,
Stormbinder

Actually, maybe we could just zip up and transfer the ftherlnd and .trn files from Yossar's machine to Mose's, and continue from turn 4 (?)

I don't think it is possible Zapmeister, unfortunately. Certanly not through the scripts that Mose have there. Besides, we only did 3 turns. It is easer to just start it again and be done with it. And you may do even better in the new game than in the Last one, who knows?
