I've been craving a MP game again, so if you're interested then post and we can arrange a game. No previous experience necessary.
Or enter the Apolyton chat room: http://apolyton.net/misc/chat/
Or use hamachi:

Hamachi basically allows you to play as if everyone was on a network.
You can download it here:

No problem HS.
Still got a few to contact, but I sent off a load of emails to people in the MP registry and some people I used to play against, so we'll see who's still interested in a game or two.

I dunno, slower science? I don't have any of the mods we used before, maybe I can check the old threads.

Most of SAP is to make the AI better, so it wouldn't be much use.
SAP has fairer values for terrain and terraforming though, like those used in the Apolyton Edition mod. Unless you like building mountains and hills around all your cities...
I found an old mod we used to get rid of ruins, but perhaps we can tweak that to just remove cities, settlers and advances from ruins, or make them much less likely.
Also a mod to remove scientist specialists, so we use lots of commerce improvemnts.

4x science, no cities/settlers/advances from ruins unless barb chance is increased greatly, more money from ruins, balance terrain, and no scientists?

How is this:
quote:
- 4x slower sci
- 1.5x gigantic sized map (other sizes are unchanged)
- +100% more gold from ruins, no advances from ruins, +15% barbarian hut chance and +2 extra barbs from a ruin
- no graphs (incl one in loadsave window)
- all available tech choices (instead of random 4 only)
- 3 starting advances for all players - religion, agriculture, toolmaking
- no scientist specialists
TERRAIN from SAP/AE mod:
========
food/production/commerce - add/remove advance > changed to
forest: 10/5/10 - agri.rev./agr.rev. > 5/15/5 - conservation/toolmaking
plains: toolmaking/toolmaking > toolmaking/agri.rev.
tundra: 0/5/0 - adv.composites/adv.comp > 5/5/0 - NONE/adv.composites
glacie: adv.composites/adv.comp > NONE/gaia theory
grassl: toolmaking/toolm. > agri.rev./agri.rev.
desert: 0/0/5 - agri.rev./agri.rev. > 0/10/5 - NONE/agri.rev.
swamp : industrial rev./indus.rev. > NONE/agri.rev.
jungle: 5/10/5 - agri.rev./agri.rev. > 10/10/5 - conservation/toolmaking
mounta: 0/15/10 - fusion/fusion > 0/15/5 - NONE/Fusion
hill : 5/10/10 - explosives/explos. > 5/10/5 - NONE/explosives
shallo: 10/10/5 > 10/5/10
deep : 10/10/5 > 10/5/10
volcan: 0/25/15 > 10/20/10
beach : 10/10/10 > 10/5/10
shelf : 5/10/5 > 10/5/10
d.moun: 0/10/10 - fusion/fusion > 0/15/5 - NONE/fusion
dunes : explosives/explos. > NONE/explosives
p.hill: 0/5/5 - explosives/explos. > 0/10/5 - NONE/explosives
p.moun: 0/10/5 - fusion/fusion > 0/15/5 - NONE/fusion
kelp : 15/10/0 > 15/5/10
reef : 10/15/5 > 10/10/10
rivers: 5/5/5 > 5/0/5
defence of all terrain doubled. e.g forest 25% > 50%, mountain 100% > 200%. |
I removed advances from ruins as that is the most unbalancing, and gave that % to barbs. The max number of barbs from ruins on each level is 2, 4, 6, 8.
On a giga map with 4x slower science it might get boring, so I would suggest more starting advances, perhaps up to Monarchy or Longships at least. Or just tell the game to start in the renaissance.
