GPS!

I don't think I have broken any house rules... I did not declare war on anyone! It's not my fault that someone doesn't like me and declared war on poor China!

Would it be possible to receive everybody's emails?

 

[Tigranes]

Unfortunately even me, the host, did not get all the emails yet...

Got the save, will play tonight

Could you please post very short freestyle report? Or detailed and in depth, whatever you like the best. We all would like to know what exactly has happened.

Especially because there is no AI civ between America (Team=0) and China (team=1).

Down loaded, installed and tested. Looks great!

Edit; what folder does the WBsav go in?

 

[Tigranes]

GPS to Eclipse .... Dumanios we need your email, bro!


***
Moscow, Kremlin

Prime-Minister Putin is doing push-ups on the golden fleece carpet. President Medvedev enters:

M. Привет, Вовка!
P. Hi, Dima, I am kind of busy...
M. (patiently) Mr. Prime-Minister, do you have any idea why Barbarian King thinks that you are the Russian leader, and not me?
P. Why am I the leader? Because I am! Don't be silly and tell me what you got. (Continues with push ups) ... One hundred and three, one hundred and four, one hundred....
M. War! We got a war in the Middle East! Iran is in flames ... well not really, but soon will be!
P. Boy, that was fast! Americans finally gave Israel go ahead, I bet. But, didn't we have house rules about no war declarations from Nuclear Club members during the first turn?
M. No, no! Israel did not have a turn yet... It's China and North Korea vs Iran!
P. (pauses in the middle of push up) China? Iran was Chinese vassal right?
M. Yes, yes! My guess is Supreme Chinese Leader Luthor Han demanded an Oil from his vassal and made it clear that refusal means war. Iranian pride opted for war...
P. Lets buy their Oil for coal and 30 gold, should we?
M. Absolutely! Gazprom needs lots of Oil resources!
P. In fact I am happy with this war. North Korea got tons of units which they disband the very first turn unless somebody declares a war on them. Lets wait and see how many North Korean divisions will be disbanded in this circumstances
M. Why do we need North Korea to keep her divisions?
P. It is called balance of powers, son... Otherwise America will get too strong with their vassals. Have you seen how nicely Americans named their ships? USS Hawaii -- sounds so cute! We should name our ships to one day...
M. ...Should I now declare on Iran? We can get them from Kazakhstan and will enjoy free oil.
P. House rule, remember? We cannot declare on "neutral" AI. Iran broke away from Communist block and now illegitimate target!
M. Oh well! What should I do instead?
P. Just vassalize non-Muslim African civs and Other Nations, we need friends in this dangerous world! Send a plane to Tehran to see what is going on there. Yeah, and trade for more Oil, Dima...
M. Can I have "Mr. President"?
P. Just relax, ok? Press calls you that, isn't that enough? Go get busy with diplomacy!

M. (confused and departing) Good night, Mr. Prime-Minister!
P. ...one hundred and twenty five, one hundred and twenty four, one hundred and twenty three...

You can just double click it. Should work from any folder.

 

[Nighthawk419]

So wait, what happened now? China demanded oil from Iran, they said no and went to war vs China and North Korea? holy $hit!

And Russia vassalized most of the third world? woop dee do?

I can't wait for my turn, a plan has finally materialized (I think... if I can pull it off)!!!

 

[Tigranes]

Yeah, there is a regular BTS option for a vassal to refuse the demand from the master, which means automatic state of war between the two countries. It never happened during my test runs, when China was controled by AI. Has to do something with Ahmadinejad's personality, I guess.

Also, Africa usually vassalizes to China, when it rulled by AI, but Chines leader was not active on the diplomatic front, I guess .Multiplayer games certainly add lots of unusual twists

yeah they defintiely do. People think about all kinds of things that you'd never expect or think of in this game. Especially human v human diplomacy. Makes things very interesting!

GPS to Dumanious

Wow everything is over-the-Top Awesomeness!

Nice write up Tigranes, even added Rules to the Story, Nice job

I'll participate just the same, I just need some time.

"The Save File you have selected is protected to ensure that the assets in the mod folder have not been changed."

Even reinstalling the mod doesn't work.

"The Save File you have selected is protected to ensure that the assets in the mod folder have not been changed."

Don't be mad Let's solve the problem:

1. Everyone else was able to play his file, so there could be a problem on your end, but also the file can be corrupted..

2. Please forward the save file to me -- if I can open it -- it might be that your settings override mine. I never selected "lock modified assets"...

3. Try to double-click the file with no BTS running, instead of loading it regular way.

4. If you can -- please post a screenshot with the error...

 

[Eclipse4449]

Posting file to see if email was a factor

 

[Tigranes]

Eclipse did you play French and German? The file Dumanious should get is to Luiz De Silva...
But let me check the file anyway...
By the way you were asking how to create a load icon -- you dont have to! Just doublclick on the PBEM save file to should load correct mod and you will save time!


EDIT: Yeah, I can load it just fine...

 

[Eclipse4449]

I understand doubleclicking on the game save but currently I have the "Steam" version installed and this version simply does not allow for it. I've looked into many aspects of this, the DVD/CD version all allow it but this version does not.

No I only played England, in addition only a few other units were outside of England no France or Germany unless that file (second file) is mine too???

Its tricky seeing the Civ name and trying to relate that to a Human player

Edit; Sorry I don't know current world Leaders

 

[Tigranes]

I know, Eclipse, but please, please, check with opening post. I tried to explained everything there.

If you could please load French save, play it, and then load German save, and play it. You are David-Nicolas-Angela in one body

After you done with Germans -- it will save a file for Brazil -- post it here please for this first time...
We need to fix this problem!

I never had a Steam so cannot comment, sorry!

 

[Eclipse4449]

Ok I'm sorry for the delay, Now I see each of my "block' is to be played separetly, I have a few other games like this.

my eyes are burning now so I'll play in the morning

 

[Tigranes]

Sure, take it easy man! I am more worried about the problem Dumanios has with our save files...

Hmm, I have an ICBM sound effect attached when I get a post here.

The turn(s) are big and have been playing turns all evening, besides with the turn I posted a solution can be found, my guess is mod placement or he needs to delete his "CustomAsset' folder

 

[Luthor_Saxburg]

I don't know if it makes any difference, but Tdy99 and Eclipse, do you have the cheat option off or on?

Everyone relax... the cheat option does not work in Multiplayer, only in Single Player. But could it be a factor for blocking the multiplayer files?

 

[Eclipse4449]

I don't have a cheat option on

playing turns now
