PBEM - any candidate ?

[Old_Lion]

I'll install one of them and give it a try, then.
Someone else doing the same ?

any preference ? I never went into their specifics.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

Well, I find FF to be the most enjoyable.
I only ever plaid about 30 minutes of Orbis thou.

Also, RFOE is new and inbalanced/unstable.

 

[Old_Lion]

I go for Orbis, then.
downloading now

 

[mcwill123]

I would have to clear out some drive space for Orbis, so unless you can't get else I'm gonna pass.

 

[Old_Lion]

Forget Orbis :
on my computer It isn't even stable in solo.

 

[Old_Lion]

oki. I had Orbis working. launched a PBEM, saved the game.

somedy care to try it ?

I'm not part of your group but as I have Orbis installed and had some free time, I tried it. It loaded fine with Orbis 1.0a instlled. Password was already entered, so I just clicked 'ok'.
Not a very good start for Khazad, but welcome to Orbis This version is very stable, so you probably won't have any problems with it, just note it's first patch for new version of Orbis. Was very unstable on WinXP, but this problem is solved in 1.0a. 1.0b should be out very soon

 

[mcwill123]

So is anyone interested in playing a game using Orbis? I guess I'm game. Might be a fun way to learn the mod.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

Oui,
why not.

I am in. But the file crashes all the same for me.
I shall try to reinstall orbis.

I just did and ITS WORKING!!!
Its alive!

 

[mcwill123]

HOORAY! It works here too. I actually played about 120 turns and I'm kind of intrigued by the mod. It would be nice to play a game that isn't with Orbis vets though.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

Well, in that case you got me. I only ever spent about 20 minutes reading the pedia and about 2 turns playing.

Also, anyone want to try FF?

 

[Old_Lion]

Great.

I'll create another thread and start to recruit again.
Priority for those who suscribed first time.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

You can count me in of course.
Same Email, same password.

Althou I think I will try that new race the Mechanos. They seem nice.
Could you give us a week or so to read up on Orbis?

 

[mcwill123]

Orbis 1.0b is supposedly coming out soon and will break save files. Maybe we should wait for that?

 

[Jarrema]

I would prefer waiting...
but we do not know, if new patch would be as stable, as the current one

 

[Old_Lion]

opps. Jarrema in too. we are six.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

Well if push comes to shove the whole spell thing is a simple XML fix. We can do it our self and just play the slightly edited a version.

I made the fix my self.
Can anyone make a save game and test the game modified with this file.

You need to unzip it than drop the XML file into your Orbis\Assets\XML\Units folder and overwrite.
Be sure to back up the original file.

Than make a save game and send it to me.

I don't understand what this fix is about ?

 

[PPQ_Purple]

It fixes this:

Then you all should wait for 1.00b. In 1.00a there is a bug with Priests of Winter that allows them to cast Snowfall which should be available only to High Priests of Winter.

Now the spell is only available to High Priests of Winter. Its a single XML file change.
