I have extracted the game ( I think there are 6 parts to my maps folder but it isn't appearing like th eothers I have D/L.

Now it has been a while since I D/l a map so I may have done it wrong. I extracted it hit CnTrl and cpopied it (all 6 of the files including the TGA) into my map file but nothing shows up when I an doing a test creating a game. I am not sure if I am adding too amny files or what...any help would be appreciated.

Did you D/L the Zip or Rar file.

I D/L'd the Rar and I can see 4 maps when I go to create a test game.

eightgates.tga looks like the main file. There are 4 others other than that.

Make sure the eightgates.tga is in the root maps folder, and not in a folder in the maps folder.

Hope that makes sense.

I D/L the zip... I just checked other map files and besides the TGA there are other files just not 5 total.

I D/l to desktop and then put it in my map folder and extract the TGA and all the other files are in htier but nothing happens...I know nothing about RAR files

Well it extracts them into a folder, and you have to take the files out and put them in the main maps directory.

At least that's what I did.

Same here. Then they work fine.

Man....I took a nap and when I woke up it was clear how I did it before (sigh).

Better hope I don't make my moves after a nap...I might last 25 turns

Pretender will be in shortly

I was just on the IRC channel and was asking about a map this big with 6 players and Ermor and the general concenses is that because of the limited players and the size of the map...Ermor could have around 30 to 40 thousand armies (mostly chaff) by turn 40. Its a Beutiful map but as they said the games already decided.

So I will withdraw since I always stay till the end and it sounds like a horrible end for a noob.

I will check back and if we get more players or ermor is not an option I would love to play and change to LA Argatha.

If not I wish you all the best of luck!!!

I have to agree, we really shouldn't have ermor with a map this big - neeed to either increase number of players, change map or not allow ermor

Well since Ossa has not sent in Ermor, why don't we jsut take him otu of the loop as Ermor.

He can change or not play.

I will send him a PM. I like the idea of a big map and a few people as it will give us all time to really get into the magic..

So Ossa, change and let us know.

Thanks.

With 6 I think we have an average of about 33 Provinces (approx) each....

Even if ossa doesn't play I think we need to open it up to one more player to keep it at 6.

I am deciding between Argatha and Man....I am somewhat new and have never played LA so it will be one of those pretenders I send in tomorrow.
