Multi Player

[drak10687]

HEY EVERYONE!

I was thinking it would be a great idea if we could get some great multi player going, cuz I'm hungry for it!
I remember playing some MP with CTW on .44, and those were some of the best battles in RTW I've had. Today I tried MP with someone from SCC, and we had a great battle (that was unfortunately cut short due to technical difficulties) and I crave for more.

Those of you who are like me, I suggest you go on over to our MP forum at the SCC, or just post here, and maybe we can all exchange msn accounts to get together sometime. OR you could just post the time, in GMT when youll be on, but thats more complicated to organise.

OH, also note though that there may be compatibility issues atm. though I didnt experience any playing CTW on RTW (not BI). If you know what you are doing, they have to do with the map.rmw file not being the same in all the folders. But if you dont, then dont bother with it, and well fix it sometime.

well, it dosent look like many people want to play MP, but in case you do and have compatibility problems try the following fix:

Try generating a map.rwm (generated in the imperial_campaign folder), copy it into the world\maps\base folder and send it to your mates and tell them to put it into both folders. That should do the trick.

generating the map.rwm, means deleting it from the imperial_campaign folder (C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\chivalry\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign) and starting the game so it generates a new one.
