MP: Smiting Season (newb-intermediate, LA, CBM 1.92) smiting has begun!

Roaring Rhinos.

Everything you said is correct, Holey, but I have to tell llamaserver what map I'm using for the game. In order to do that, the map has to be in the list of llamaserver maps. That's what I'm having trouble with.

[Groundworm]

So I finally managed to submit the map to llamaserver. I hope it works.

The .map file I got when I extracted the map was called roaringrhinosfix.map. I renamed it to roaringrhinos.map, and llamaserver accepted it. Hopefully it won't crash when we try to actually run the game... I'm not sure.

LOL, well I put it in only to see someone beat me to the punch with a slightly different name...lol.

Houston, we are GO!

Grrr...

In the future rather than asking for a change at the last minute, you should maybe bring it up a little earlier.

Especially since I tested several nations and pretenders on the original map to find a combo that I liked.

By the way, I've tried the dowload link for the new map from two different computers now and it has failed to work, which probably explains why I'm a little grumpy about it.

[HoleyDooley]

Download worked fine for me.

I tested my pretender on the original map, but I don't see any big issue and I'm fairly indifferent as to what map we use. I calculate a baseline 11 out of 12 chance that I will lose regardless, so I defer to others.

I am however a bit unclear as to what map file I should be downloading at this point, and from where. It seems there were some problems for some folks and maybe some file renames. I'd like to test out the map a bit before we start, if someone can clarify (also do we need to change the file name or anything else?)

Thanks! Snack

You shouldn't need to rename anything. Use the download link I posted earlier in this thread- it worked fine for me.

Nightfall, apologies for the confusion/last minute map change. It seemed there were a significant number of people in favor of it.

Still can't connect to that finnish server...

[HoleyDooley]

Nightfall, you may need to have an account with that forum for the map link.

So if you don't have one, just join, the cost is minimal...its free.......

Glad we are switching maps. Downloaded new map with no problem. looking forward to our game!
