Only thing I can't figure out is why a couple players (but not all players) have contact from the beginning. Tried again and looks like you're right I noticed difficulty was still Noble so I updated to Monarch and attached as final map file. I'll PM Ramk to get the PB set up.
We are live! Thanks Ramkhamhaeng! I logged in, claimed my civ, and verified that settings look correct.
The PBSpy-Link is: http://civ.zulan.net/pbspy/game/92/ The Ingame-Url is: pb.zulan.net:2050 You can download the mod from either Charriu's link above, or the download link on the PBSpy page. Superdeath is up first. I don't know if email notifications are yet programmed for sequential turns so for the first couple rounds at least let's send a quick email to the next player once you have ended turn so we don't have to check PBSpy obsessively. My email address is cornflakes116 at the usual gmail (March 31st, 2020, 13:43)Cornflakes Wrote: We are live! Thanks Ramkhamhaeng! I logged in, claimed my civ, and verified that settings look correct. Unless pbspy is a bit bugged, im going to hold off on playing my turn as it looks like it would skip all of your turns? Ill play tonight after work if this happens to be false/ect. zach.crook@yahoo.com or PM here, either way ill get the message. ( plus i... already obsess over PBSPY )
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow.
In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."-Old Harry. PB48.
So, I haven't played a Civ4 PB since the NatNeg changes a few years back, and I'm trying to figure out what to do here. I've grabbed the 2015 exe and got that working, but upon logging in to claim my Civ, an error message flashed quickly, and the game crashed. It looks like I'm supposed to do something with "BtS Wrapper"? I'm unclear what I'm supposed to do with that, and I don't see anything about it in the stickied Zulan post. Any idea what's up here?
Ramk confirmed that PBSpy would look a little odd even though it functions correctly. For sequential turns, only one player is active at a time and therefore PBSpy will show the other players as having ended turn. We can track who's turn it is based on the player who is NOT showing as ended turn. Once you end turn, I as next player would get unlocked and your turn would show ended.

Did you put the mod in the correct folder. I had flash-crash issue previously which was caused by mod in the wrong folder (should be in the installation path, not Documents/My Games). For natneg stuff try following the instructions here: https://www.realmsbeyond.net/forums/show...#pid703171 (March 31st, 2020, 14:06)Cornflakes Wrote:(March 31st, 2020, 14:01)scooter Wrote: So, I haven't played a Civ4 PB since the NatNeg changes a few years back, and I'm trying to figure out what to do here.

This was it. All good now, thanks! (March 31st, 2020, 14:01)Cornflakes Wrote: Ramk confirmed that PBSpy would look a little odd even though it functions correctly.
