Multiplayer after the steam update

[Kelryn_Grey]

So are we currently in a position where there is no multi-player capability for the mod? I can't see anything in the internet lobby or LAN lobby from inside More Naval at present, so I can't start a new game, let alone continue a previous game.

No idea. I've only played FFH via PBEM. Something happened with the latest Steam update that caused it to stop working?

A Civilization IV update after all this time, and just for this... I'm not sure if it is good, but it is indeed amazing

I can install my Steam version in another PC and test if MNAI works. I will report once it is downloaded and installed.

Ah I forgot this might not be known here. The steam update removed the directip connection that was used to play in pitboss or just directly in fast paced games. However this generated significant backlash from the pitboss community, so they released a reversion for anyone who wants to use directip. As I don't use steam, I'm unsure whether this reversion still allows MP via the steam lobby. As far as I'm aware, mods are unaffected by this update.

Anyway, some links.
