The Dom3 program actually creates those. You can even turn them on for your own solo games.

I've played the first turn. The file came as an ordinary .2h file.

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.
Yes that is standard pbem (for those doing this the first time).
The game on the server creates .trn files (turn). And the game on your machine creates .2h files (to host). You have to email the .2h file back to the server at nav@dom3minions.com and it will male the next .trn file back to you (except the team where all turns go to the captain).
Extended Info:
This actually happens also if you play solo, or if you play direct connect. The only difference is that with those the in and out is automatically handled. Also, its a good thing to know for those wishing to work around the lack of automatic backups. |

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.
Teams, check your starting provinces. Are the provinces surrounding your starting forts overlapping with your neighbors?
Actually, never mind. I just noticed a flaw in the map that I've overlooked. I don't think anyone wants to stop the game to make a new map on my account, so I'll do the best I can...and curse the mapmaker.

WinXP? Right-click your desktop icon and go Properties, Shortcut, and in the "Target" line after the quotes add --statfile --scoredump
Ive started a new thread covering this subject more fully. Look for it if you really want to play with it. Its a whole territory unto itself along with map commands and mod commands.

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.
Well, I see some of our team have gotton the first turn but I havn't received mine yet.
I have to admit, with all the mail I have seen on here about changing files ect, I am a little unsure if I will be able to get the game going.
However, we will see when chris gets me my turn.  |
