Destiny of Empires [Diplo Game] [Setup Thread]

[Hercules]

Yes, what error do you get?

It is like the timing out error. Or as if my firewall is blocking it.

I'll try again.

Edit: It's not the firewall.

It got past connecting to host and now meets 'connecting to peer'. So maybe it will be alright when I try again later.

My wayward child, worry not, for I shall bring you home soon enough.

Dost thou mocketh us?! WE shalleth be the city upon the hill, not thou! America!

[Robert]

Restarting the computer now, it was frozen b/c of another prog.

[Hercules]

Ok established contact.

[Pinchak]

I still cannot unpack this thing. Keep getting cannot create/open the file messages. Looks like Windows 7 BS.

[Pinchak]

Ok, got it now.

[Exploit]

Is there a parameter to the exe file or an edit to an ini file that can be done to force the game to load using a specific username? Playing in multiple civ games, I am certain that I will eventually forget to change my user name from Exploit to whatever civ I am playing in this game (or back again) at which point my secret will be blown. Any recommendations on how to prevent this?

Mod...check
DoE...check

Side note: I'm having trouble getting the mod shortcut to work, it doesn't recognize the target. I could be making a stupid mistake but can anyone think what it may be?

Should the target be:

[...]\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\Civ4BeyondSword.exe" mod=\Destiny of Empires

?

I have tested. Test was good. I await the coming of the Dawn.

[Robert]

deity told me that he can login to the game, but not move units. Can others confirm this?

@China: that's the path more or less, you have to adapt it to your local situation. In my case, ie.: "d:\Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword.exe" mod=\Destiny of Empires

[DNK]

Yeah, I also can't do anything with my units. Can't move em, can't settle em. But I can connect.

[Robert]

Should not use this mod as well: http://apolyton.net/content.php/72-H...s-Multiplaying

[Robert]

Yeah, I also can't do anything with my units. Can't move em, can't settle em. But I can connect.

We used to have this problem with an earlier mod as well!

[Robert]

SOLVED!

Apparently I had not selected the 'simultaneous turns' checkbox....
Now it's supposed to be ok!

I'll look into that Spanish mod as well, it sounds like worth a shot! It eliminates all double move troubles!

[St Jon]

Can't login to mod as it keeps asking me for a password - for the game not the civ - which I did not know we needed.
