LOL oh i fell so wanted.. yea sure i'll take the Commies... can someone give my details, like what events used? Whats the Alliances and world situation??

Paul Hanson · February 24, 2002, 07:04

We're using the multiplayer events file, but since this is encoded into the save fle it shouldn't matter which one you have in the scenario directory.

For the world situation, check the past few pages of this thread. Henrik posted the save game file somewhere on the thread, so download it and get playing - it's your turn.

And heres another one of my infamous maps. I just hope it attaches alright.

I cant hes got a password!!

Paul Hanson · February 25, 2002, 16:25

Christ almighty! I would PM jerkwaterbox, but seeing as he hasn't been around for some time it seems pointless.

Henrik · February 26, 2002, 02:47

I know how to remove passwords from save files, but so, it appears, does soundwave...

I can do it, if we decide to still want soundwave in after taking the info in this thread into acount...

Paul Hanson · February 26, 2002, 08:23

Personally, I have no objections to him taking part. What about you, Henrik?

Henrik · February 26, 2002, 10:01

Sure he can if he promises not to cheat again, but one must remember that pbems rely on trust, can you really trust a player that is known to cheat?
Pbems are extremely vulnerable to cheating, as there is basicly no way of checking if somone breaks the rules, therefore we need to trust eachother.
The question is do we?
A second chance is ok with me tough, Im not like that

Sorry if I was a little rude above.

Paul Hanson · February 26, 2002, 10:42

Fair enough. He can play, but if we find him cheating we expel him immediately. Only seems fair.

Jimmywax · February 26, 2002, 14:30

Yes, this is definatley a disturbing turn of events. I have never put passwords on my games simpy because I felt that there was no need for them. I guess I was naive about the whole thing. Do you suppose people have been spying on me since I haven't protected myself and if so can I put a password on my games after I have started them?

Henrik · February 26, 2002, 15:04

I sometimes password my game and somtimes I chose not to password it, it is really very simple to bypass the password thing if you really wanted to (I wont post how it could be done though for obvious reasons) the basic thing is we should trust eachother, I mean we play for fun right?
Where is the fun in cheating?...
As I said above though I think a second chance is something everyone is entitled to though.

Yep: File - set password. You'll need the enter the password each time you load the game, so choose something you'll remember

Well that is simple enough.

Henrik · February 27, 2002, 12:09

So, should I remove the passowrds from the file to allow soundwave to join?

Paul Hanson · February 27, 2002, 13:13

Might be a good idea, seeing as I've forgotten mine.

Henrik · February 27, 2002, 14:38

Here you go then, no passwords remain in this file.

Paul Hanson · February 27, 2002, 14:59

Good. Now Soundwave just has to show up and play his turn.

Soundwave · February 27, 2002, 17:45

I will do it tonite!

Paul Hanson · March 7, 2002, 15:02

Well? Have you managed to get round to it yet?

Soundwave · March 7, 2002, 17:49

+++ Yangon, Hanoi taken+++
Miltary operations to commence in one month for future miltary advance.

Stop.

Phnom Penh Liberated!

Following air strikes from the carrier Viraat, Kmer Rouge forces in Phnom Penh were routed by Indian paratroopers. Indian patrols have since since fanned out into the surrounding countryside, where grateful peasants have mobbed the soldiers.

The commander of Chinese forces in the region has been invited for dinner on board the Viraat, which is now moored in the Mekong river.

The Viraat and her escorts anchor off Phnom Penh.

Chinese Send Word

The Chinese General on board Viraat today congratulated The Indian Miltary for there peaceful take over and hopes to join them in furture Peace Keeping Operations.
