I would like to know if these matches are going to be recorded and if so where can others view?

I would like to know if these matches are going to be recorded and if so where can others view?

Normally what I would do here is ask you: Do you mean where you can download the .rpy replay files or where you can watch video footage and commentary of the matches?

But I will give you the answer as it is the only answer regardless of which you meant (I know, that does not sound right). Let me try to be clear. Currently, the majority of the questions and so on that are thrown at me occur on The Guild, as that is the main forum for EB and where almost all of my posts are. In the tourney thread on this forum (which will be the first and last one; all others will occur only on The Guild), I will still collect faction names and replay files of those who wish to play and those who wish to submit their battles (of course, starting July 1 and ending July 31). Now if you or any player wishes to learn from EB Online vets by reviewing their games, be assured that you'll do this by downloading replays and loading them in EB (very few if any will be recorded as game footage, commentated on and uploaded to YouTube; I can only think of one other person other than myself who would be willing to do this). Don't forget that by default you cannot load replay files in EB Multiplayer edition (you have to watch the .rpy files in EB MP, not Singleplayer, for the battle to play out faithfully to the original event). Just download the EB Multiplayer Load Replay Mod found here. Also, browsing through page after page of banter, spam, and actual battle submissions on each month's tourney thread on The Guild is a daunting task. This is why I'll be adding another page to EB Online (which you can access with a new tab link on the navigation bar up-top). The new page will essentially be an archive of all tourney battle replays for each month starting from the July 2010 anniversary onwards (almost all of the replays from July 2009 have been lost...). Let me know if any of this needs clarification please.

UPDATE: All text mentioning the Alexander engine for Rome: Total War has been removed from the website. If anybody spots remnants let me know so I can remove them. I have backups and am simply presenting an Alex-free instructions set because the community simply cannot cope with replay archives that will have a sub-set of Alex-only replays...such is simply a wrong thing to allow because what does that imply for those who do not own Alex? They cannot equally and justly review past games? Not fair. Not fair at all. RTW 1.5 will be used solely and exclusively (from another standpoint, EB is a modification for RTW, not ALX, as are some other mods). Also, remember that you should have a clean EB install, not one that has sub-mods or sub-mod packs such as the EB Mini-Mod Pack (exceptions to this being, for instance, the EB MP Load Replay Mod that you obviously need if you're going to replay battles; you should not replay battles using the single player EDU).

IMPORTANT UPDATE: EB Online Network #1 is for practice/non-tourney matches. EB Online Network #2 is for tournament-only matches. You can read the same statement now on the website under Instructions page.

Also, remember than when matching, you have to have either:
a. Have a clean EB install with only the fixes.
b. Have a clean EB Alex or BI install, but the other must too.
c. Have the same mod pack or altered files.

Mine has the EB Online EDU for the MP

[mamik_yev_konak]

Also, remember [...]

You simply need the same multiplayer-dependent files. You don't need to know what that entails in order to play online. For the purposes of EB Online, simply grab the most current EB Online MP EDU, install it into your RTW directory where your EB is located, and boom, you're ready to rock n roll. Easier done than said.

July tourney results are finalised and posted. Was away on holiday and site went down for a while, but is back up (www.ebonline.tk). Sorry for the wait. July replays can be downloaded on the website.

Silly me: My files are saved. I just can't view them in MP mode for my own safety.
Oh and if you care the number 6 goes after 5.

Thank you Mix Master. For any moderator that may have received a report message regarding the pre-edited version of Mix's post, please disregard. Thank you.

I had a lot of fun with EB Online. Even the custom battles were fun since you can choose the right units for the factions. But now I want to be able to continue my campaign game. Which file should I take out? I did it before but I forgot how. Would you please help me?

The EB Online MP EDU installer only overwrites the MP EDU of EB, leaving the SP EDU unscathed, if you will. To play single player, simply switch over to the Single Player EDU (or "mode") by either launching with the pre-installed single player shortcut or by using the Trivial Script configuration software.

Can you reupload MP EDU on another file server? I just can't download from filefront. My country IP was blocked. T_T

I can't thank you enough.

The EB edu for multiplayer has some strange values.

Reformed cohorts have a lethality of .16, yet the reformed 1st cohorts have a lethality of .13.
Imperial cohorts have .16, yet imperial first cohorts again have .13
and many others...
....?

The link to download the MP EDU is dead (thanks US government). Any other file hosting site other than megaupload would be appreciated.

Try Gamefront

Congrats, you've discovered a WIP.

No need to spread false information.

We do have a thread for bug reports you know...

Hi. Can anyone help me getting Hamachi to run properly? I'd like to give EB Online a try. I've downloaded all the files from here and here, installed them in a clean EB1.2+fixes and installed Hamachi. But I can't get Hamachi to connect to the EB Online network. I've registered and posted on the .Org, but so far no answer.

I'm a total noob when I comes to online-gaming (EB Online looks quite interesting though), so perhaps it's no big deal actually. I hope so anyway.

Regards!
