Setting up IP games LIV

[Baron O]

As asked by my friend Rah I am setting up this thread to keep Ming happier with a new thread.



i should be around for Saturday festivies

[Ming]

Thanks for setting it up... Rah's wife is out of town, so be early

And if anybody is still looking tonight, send me an ICQ...

[Deity Dude]

sorry I havnt been around lately. Im at the cottage now and am supposed to get my computer back monday.

BTW everything was fine with my computer until RAH sent me the link for his NASCAR game and when I clicked on the link my comp froze and got a virus.

I dont blame anyone. I just say that so that you are aware that that happened.

I'm getting a play-byplay of your game tonight from Ben Kenobi.........



ACK!

[Ben Kenobi]

Hmmm, didn't think an apolyton link would be a virus. That doesn't sound right, but it's something to keep in mind.

Thanks for the game Ben. One more hour and there would have been some devistation. I had so much land to settle it made no sense to war early.

Tuber, on the play by play, was he winning.

[Ben Kenobi]

nope, knew I had problems early on

[Ben Kenobi]

at one point I was supreme, with 5 cities but I bumped into both Ming and rah early

[rah]

On a small map you usually find people early. If your early attacks had worked the game would have changed.

Up for another try tonight.

As soon as I see people, I'd like to start and get a lot of turns in. You moved right along and will be welcomed in the future.

Nope, sounded to me like he was on the defensive.

ACK!

I got the MP patch for Civ II.....now it doesn't run worth a damn......



ACK!

[Ming]

Where did you get the patch from... and what version did you have to begin with?

[Tuberski]

I got it from CivFanatics, like you guys told me to about a year ago.

Just finally got around to it.

I'll have to start it again to tell you what the error says.

I had Fantastic Worlds installed.

The error code, which I think is video based is:

ICDecompressEX returned -3

ACK!

[Tuberski]

I thought maybe it was the partial install of Test of Time(bad cd), but it wasn't that either.

Vanilla Civ II runs fine but the patch screws it up.

ACK!

[Ben Kenobi]

Tubes, I had to do an emergency patch myself, here's what I did.

I didn't use the program that cedric has on his site, I just dled the 5 files needed for MGE.
