Multiplayer FfH2?

[Silverkiss]

Oh ok, that is a good idea too

Hey guys, I noticed something that may bar mentioning but the time and day issue........these mods get players from both sides of the international date line.......so when timing things remember to be on the same day......or realize wednesday and thursday may be the same day...

..I'm US central and am not involved at this time my games are still dry-dock offline but I play Hotseat about 1/4 of the time........However I talk to people in places like Romania and Israel at times and geeks from all over pretty regular.

........Just thought I should mention it for timing sake........even if you guys are already on this line of thinking a new member may need this post or they may slip and not think of it.

We can't play multiplayer

 

[H.GrenadeFrenzy]

Is this a permanent Problem or one that time will change?

 

[Bad Player]

We were using pitboss (check previous posts) and we couldn't get it to run even after asking here and in the multiplayer forum.

Hopefully not permanent!!!

Maybe we should try with the latest version??

 

[Bad Player]

I'm totally up for it!! I would love to play multiplayer!!!

EDIT: To test it could we try getting 2 ppl playing, then 3, then 4 etc and find out if it's one or two players causing the problem?

If this works at all Hian the Frog and myself would like to know and later on be included, if possible, thanks. I can wait awhile because I have a hardwrare issue to fix first but still would like to know if anything works......feel free to write if anything exciting happens and I'll write back.

Has anyone tried MP (non PBEM and non pitboss) in the MP lobby? Just curious??
I have done MP many times on a LAN setup, and had no problems. Of course.... that was a couple of versions ago.

 

[Bad Player]

Yeah we were trying pitboss because of timezones (I'm in Australia) so it's ok if it's the weekend and not some obscure hour for me but that probably would stuff everyone else up!!!

*bump*

Anyone want to start a game (regular FFH2 not pitboss) in a few hours time?

 

[Silverkiss]

Well, maybe I can, if its not too late. Its 22:30 here, and I dont want to start playing at 2:00 AM =O

 

[Bad Player]

That's the problem Timezones

I think it would take a few hours to play a game - it's 12 PM here so I can have some flexibility...


I was hoping to catch ppl early saturday morning for a game! So it's 10 PM New York time and 4 AM Paris time...


Julius I'm down for playing anytime now onwards if there's a couple of other ppl who are also ready... HINT HINT

 

[H.GrenadeFrenzy]

I have a hardware Issue that will probraly take a week or so.....then i be up for it for sure and I'll try to work with who evers schedule Ok........but I can't use the comp Ive been testing the mod on It is an offline system only(dry dock so to speak) I will let you all know when this comp is play worthy.....need just a mite more of RAM........I think this video card will work fine......

Julius Bloodmoon may be available this Sunday (American time) - waiting to find out - is anyone else up for a game (regular FFH2 server, not pitboss)?

 

[Bad Player]

Well Julius Bloodmoon and I are hoping to have a game in about 19 hours time - if anyone else is interested plz yell out!

 

[Lord Vermillion]

I would be willing to play a regular MP (non PBEM, non pitboss), but I am on USA EST. I should be available Sat. all day (11am est til whenever) and Sun. until about 5:30-6pm EST. If you gys are still interested, let me know.

 

[Bad Player]

Julius Bloodmoon is on American time so that should be ok too hopefully but for me the problem is that 11AM for Americans is about 11PM for me (EST Australia).

 

[Silverkiss]

Actually i dont think im on American time, as i dont live in the USA... Hey just say what time is it now for you guys. Here now its 18:53
