DeadlyMedley - running

[jimkehn]

It was an honest mistake, and I think we should restart. If we use the fixed starting position map, does it still use the same.tga file? Do we players need to download anything? Or does the .trn file map data include everything we need?

let's restart guys.

[Dragar]

yep lets restart

Sounds good to me. I saw a fixed start map when I started the game, but I don't know where to DL it. I'm going to look around and see what I can figure out.

.....edit: We can't DL the map. Apparently we just need the regular map file we already have. The server randomly assigns us to the hand picked, balanced start positions.

I didn't realize that I could delete the original game, so I started a new one. Send your pretenders to DeadlyMedley2, instead.

I probably could have done this restart better and kept the same name. Oh well. Learning experience and all that.

Yeah, there's even a bonus new admin option which allows you to take a newly started game and take it back to the "Waiting for pretenders" stage, keeping all the pretenders, called "Restart game" I think. As you say though, all a learning experience, I think people had gotten used to the old set of options. Hmm, I really should update the FAQ soon, as it's horribly out of date.

Also, you're right about the map, you don't need to download it.

Ok, where did Arcosephale come from? Did someone switch factions? Not a problem but I really should be kept up to date on this stuff.

heh

did you manage to get all 12? it has been a while since i've played a game, and haven't ever done EA MP, and would be happy to send in some simple helheim pretender if you're missing someone
