Default Re: System Requirements for Dom III

Yes it requires a working serial but it does not check it against the players. So it can be the same as your playing copy. I do that. Host on linux, play on WinXP. I think its the best of both worlds and I wish other games would follow suit.

And the slow server wont be a problem. The amount of memory is the problem. That can limit the size of the games you run, and the ability with Dom3 to generate the larger map sizes.

The text mode is fantastic. You can control all of the game starting options. You have tons of options for accepting turns including tcp/ip, email, ftp, etc etc. Plus the pre-hosting switch and post-hosting switch lets you call scripts. You can backup files each turn, or copy the scoreboard output to a web Directory.
