Inconvenienced Electrons

Planning is for other people. So far the last two times we have planned a Civilization 4 session, I have had to cancel do to two no-shows. The time before that we had the AI take the place of one of our players. I am somewhat confused as to why we can’t sync our schedules enough to allow for ~2 hours of overlapping free time.

I would recommend that perhaps one of the other players can propose a time, because it seems like I don’t have enough skill points in team management.

Hello world. It looks like I can post from my PDA now. I can understand if no one but me cares, but I think RPC can be cool.

It looks like I can post from Microsoft Word 2007.

Ok, so this is 1765AD take 2. We will meet 6:30PM CST on Saturday, March 24.

The year is MDCCLXV. Tomorrow evening (March 15) we are continuing our epic battle to discover/invent everything…in Civilization 4.

To whom it may concern, we are meeting together to play a multi-session game of civilization 4 today (March 3, 2007 ~6:30PM CST.) We will coordinate on Skype (before and during.)

I suspect that I will host (b/c everyone knows my IP address.) Everyone should make sure that you are connecting on the correct UDP port. The default port is 2056. This can be found in : C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\My Games\Sid Meier’s Civilization 4\CivilizationIV.ini

(Around line 233)
; NetComm Port
Port = 2056

All players will need to setup UDP forward for this port if they are behind a NAT.

Please also make sure you are running version 1.6.1 of Civilization 4 (without the expansion set) You can download a patch to the latest version from here: http://www.2kgames.com/civ4/downloads.htm
