SOW: WL want to play MP with DOW?

These will be casual, fun games. There are however some prerequisites and ground rules.


You will need the following:

•   Latest patched version of game. (1.01 as of 10/11/16)
•   TeamSpeak 3 installed and working Click here
•   A decent microphone (not desktop or laptop)
•   A decent/stable internet connection (at least 1.5Mbps down & 0.5Mbps up)
•   If the game is advertised in advance you must put your name on manning list.
•   If mods are required, you must have them downloaded in advance.
•   You must be proficient with the game (Note proficient. You don't need to be an expert)
•   You must be prepared to play in a friendly manner. It is not real!
•   Having the game does not mean you can automatically play the sessions.

We play with the latest version of the software.

The latest game patch, 1.01 can be found here: Patch 1.01 ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/ScourgeOfWarWaterloo/ScourgeOfWar-Update-v101.zip




We use the following mods.

Most of them are small. You can download them from our mods section: Here.

Please do not alter the mods in anyway. This could lead to in-game issues

Multiplayer Mod Click here

HITS mod:  Click here

New pointer mod: Click here

Expanded Toolbar V - Grog: Click here

Realistic smoke optional: Click here

Jace11's Foliage mod (Terrain Sprites) optional: Click here


NOTE:
D.O.W. are using the KS mod on many occasions. It is possible that we will use this as our standard mod. I advise you to download and have it installed in-case we use it. Please follow the setup instructions carefully.

KS Mod (3 parts): Click here

Part 1: KS Sprites Mod 1.02: KS Sprites Mod 1.03

Part 2: KS Napoleon Mod II: KS Napoleon Mod II 1.22

Part 3: KS SOW Supplemental Maps.


Safest thing to do is to have all of the above mods installed and ready to be activated. These mods are mostly very small and easy to deal with.

The above list is a quick work in progress. I do not want to be in a situation which often happens in another game we play. Good comms is important. Especially in the early stages of getting to grips with the game. Also players should have a good understanding of the interface. Notice I said understanding.

I play regularly and my mp sessions are becoming more regular.

This is an excellent game.

Yes I have played all the SOW games - just a bit of rust to shake off so need to schedule some practice.

Hi Biondo

Glad to see you here my friend. The SOW section on our forum is new. It is however growing all the time. Please feel free to contribute.

I will likely create a post where players can let people know they are looking for a game. I am usually available for a game :)

Welcome to our group.

Regards
