This is purely a message of propaganda! No, actually, people have shown an interest in playing unholy war... Quoting Casper: how is everyone for this coming saturday at 9:00 PM GMT (this is 3:00 PM EST for me and other americans)? oops i meant 4:00PM EST I don't think it works over my university network. So I wouldn't be there  But it would be cool to know if anyone else gets/has got it to work!

Sure count me in.  Quote: But it would be cool to know if anyone else gets/has got it to work! It works. I played it with Woody, Ecko and Pilot. Pilot's pretty damn good by the way. [Edited on February 8, 2007 by Rincewind] ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com |

so far we have: Rincewind Yonni Casper anyone else going to be available? it would nice to have some 5 or 6 player chaos going on  I think i can host the game, as my uni has lots of bandwidth available, and no pesky firewalls in the way

I think I'll be avaliable anyway, I'll try and be there. Quoting Caspah: I think i can host the game, as my uni has lots of bandwidth avaliable... Can't we host it from the master server? EDIT: By the way, how many players can this game handle at once? And is there a level editor to make bigger levels. At school we have "BzFlag Thursdays" where anyone logging in at lunch has the choice to join one of the school-wide games of BzFlag. But BzFlag kinda sucks, so If there was a bigger map/the game is able to, it would be awesome to change it to "UnHoly Wars Thursdays". [Edited on February 8, 2007 by yonni] ____________ |

Someone has to do the initial map selection and game starting. But other than that it's peer to peer. You're each a host for you're own player/rockets etc... (so it's very open to cheating!) Quote: how many players can this game handle at once? At the moment it's hard coded to *about* 8 players. I could raise that number in an update sometime.Quote: is there a level editor to make bigger levels. There is no editor, just the files as you can see in the maps directory. I think there is a fenix graphic size limit of 2048x2048 pixels. At least it crashed when I used pngs much bigger Quote: it would be awesome to change it to "UnHoly Wars Thursdays". awesome indeed But yeah, you might have problems.

There's no limit of graphs that I know of, but I thought PNG's did have a limit of 2048x2048 to be loaded. And perhaps I can join this testsession as well, just poke me on IRC a while before starting. ____________ BennuWiki Yes, my avatar has grey borders in IE (so get a decent browser) ROOFLEZ ROOFLEZ |

Edit: DTM, maybe make a new Unholy war news item (within the game) about this event? [Edited on February 9, 2007 by Rincewind] ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com |

Quoting DTM: Quote: how many players can this game handle at once? At the moment it's hard coded to *about* 8 players. I could raise that number in an update sometime.Arg, not nearly enough, we normally have over 24 people in each game (with 3 games running at once). Oh well, I should make my own network game for that very purpose. ____________ |

For whoever is going to make the server in half an hour: Please don't chose the map "Simply Green"! It shows no jump triangles for the host while it does for the clients, very strange. edit: Anyone else going to play? I have a server.

Talking as if you were a bot? Hm. Well Ecko & Dan were there too. Some times it showed somebody else's name for other people. But it's over now. Casper and Yonni where were you guys? ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com |

Thanks for testing all I would be very interested to know what your network setups are. (like, direct connection/router, whether you forwarded or opened any ports...)

I have a router (which at the same time is the modem), but it's not using NAT but "Routed Subnet": all computers connected to the router have their own internet IP adress. I first had NAT but changed it to Routed Subnet because NAT caused trouble in multiplayer online games (didn't let me make a server in certain games, etc). What I have now is the same as without a router, everything is basically wide open and I can do anything.
