Apolyton CtP2 Lemur Trophy: MP Tournament Thread

Can you change the colors00.txt without everyone having the same one?

I'd assume you could - but then we wouldn't be talking about the same civ's when playing - that's why i'd propose a tourny one. Furthermore I have no idea how to do it...

[Maquiladora]

Yep, would make things easier, i kept calling ETB 'orange' Its easy to change the colours, just get the RGB numerical values from mspaint and replace the numbers in colors00.txt

[mapfi]

you mean he wasn't the pink one?


all my plotting destroyed again...

thanks for the instructions

[Maquiladora]

Plotting?? Yeah steal all my techs and blame it on the AI. Ill know your serious when you switch to Fascism, until then your nothing

[mkalthoff]

a little questions:
i never played a lot of the options (e.g. donut-world). What is the reason for starting with 10000 gold?
Default is 100, isn't it? do you buy a lot of armies at the beginning or what is it for?

[Maquiladora]

I usually rush buy a few warriors to explore and get some early goody huts. It just keeps the early game interesting and gives it a jumpstart.

@dregman: hi dregman, i just met turambar. He can't play today. Next possible date would be Sunday afternoon/evening next week. Is this ok 4 u?

[Turambar]

We can both play at 8pm CET which is 7pm in Britain, on Sunday.

[dregman]

sure next sunday will be ok for me
so i'll here from you later!

Where should I copy that servers file too? I went to login just to make sure it worked and it just continually hunted for servers. However Lan worked.

[Maquiladora]

Put it in "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call To Power 2\ctp2_program\ctp" or your equivelant.

[Wise Ass]

Thank You

Okay Mauro, ETB i made a fresh install and moved the game on one turn. I started it in MP and the computer played Mauros turn and my turn was ready next, i saved it there, so only he will have missed one turn. Hope you werent planning anything important

There were 2 people playing just now but theyre not in the tournament. I wouldve them but theyre game was locked. And we saw 2 other guys on sunday who wanted to play with SAP but couldnt connect to each other. Seems like theres more people playing MP.

[mapfi]

My turn skipped?!?!!!!!

Hope you werent planning anything important

Of course I was! All my strategic thinking for nothing again...
So this means we'll wait for ETB to tell us when he gets back on Friday...

[Maquiladora]

Oops Im afraid it was unavoidable, actually it could still crash or it may just have been your turn that time. I was playing with no one connected to me, so we'll have to see what happens when i host 2 people. I would like to test its stable before Friday though. I just need 1 or 2 people. Strange though because only ETB had a resynch in 250 turns
