Kill Scribber
Pyrhic dropped? I had him playing Pangea…
Does this version of eth squirrells have all the province corrections fixed?

Scribble · 2012-10-01T12:02:29.000Z

pyrhic is still playing, just forgot him in the lineup.

I think this version does have that problem fixed, but let me know if you see something strange - I have not personally verified it.

What is the ENP2 ver 1.02 mod that has been activated for this game? Am I going to have to remake my pretender if I didn’t have that enabled?

Nate:

Those are the alternate nations that wahoo and I ended up with.

He got a real cool early steamroller.

I got Pythia without hydras.

I don’t know the answer to your second question.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

pyrhic · 2012-10-01T23:31:12.000Z

ya, i’m having trouble finding ENP2 ver 1.02. I can find ENP1 v1.02, and ENP2 MA…I is confused

…and of course, scribbles link to a star wars mod post is…more confusing…

Scribble · 2012-10-02T04:13:53.000Z

I have no idea why the mod is linked on llamaserver to a post that has nothing to do with ENP2. Here’s a link to the mod.

And to answer Nate’s question, the ENP2 mod does not impact pretender files so no need to redesign your pretender. All it does is add a selection of mod nations.

Tenuki seems to be far more interested in PMing me than paying his turn, so I am going to break the chain.

Tenuki,
Keep your insults and your threats, I don’t deserve them and I don’t need them. Play your fucking turn. I really don’t care who wins this game anymore as long as it’s not you.

That’s because whoever uploaded it put in the wrong reference post number by mistake. (llama himself most likely)

In this case if you check the ENP thread here, you will see it is thread number 47230.
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=47230

And when you upload a mod or map to the llamaserver, it asks you for a post reference number on shrapnel so that it can create a download hotlink (and the thread reference number is not the same as the post reference number). To get the post reference number you need to click on the post number (black number in top right corner) in order to obtain the post reference number, which the uploader didn’t do in this case. If they had then they’d have gotten this post, and the correct post reference number of 774173.
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showpost.php?p=774173&postcount=1

And the download hotlink that is currently linked to the ENP2 takes you to a random post because that is the forum post with the post reference number of 47230. (meaning it’s fairly obvious where and how the mistake occured).

There are bad links like this for several of the maps on the llamaserver. So if you ever come accross a bogus link on the llamaserver, then the above is likely the reason why. (this occurs most often when the post needing to be lnked is the OP)

I expected a family trip, not this. (Referring to two posts ago.)

Scribble · 2012-10-02T06:38:04.000Z

What does my post have to do with any family trips? You better watch it Perkins, or I’m changing the name of the game back to Kill Perkins.

Dave is on top of shit today. ;)

I’ve never played an early steamroller before. I’m not sure how steamrollerie they actually are. And I get to learn how to play a blood nation in the new balanced mod…

BTW, anyone have a link to the handy changes since 1.4 and 1.9? thx!

pretender is more or less done!

Nate · 2012-10-02T11:05:21.000Z

Mine’s in. And it’s SO LONELY.

pyrhic · 2012-10-02T11:24:55.000Z

pyrhic · 2012-10-02T16:00:32.000Z

By my scouting BL now has 3 capitals. Vanheim better have something up its sleeve…

Austen · 2012-10-02T16:35:46.000Z

Dave_Perkins · 2012-10-02T16:49:35.000Z

My scouting says they have four.

pyrhic · 2012-10-02T17:25:55.000Z

Well, if that’s the case, Vanheim better have a bigger sleeve…
