Topic: The Forge - Info and Feedback

[Bonk]

Thanks for the feedback.

1-Drafted in 3 monster missions, all 3 did not end.  Had a D5L in 2 of the 3 and a FWL in the 3rd.  Tried leaving map(complete with AI once, and just our team once) no end.  ended up alting out all 3.  found out later that if you left map, then hit escape and forfeited, it ended.  just not normal is all.

I'm confused. There is no monster mission on The Forge...  Was it a NW patrol perhaps?

2- Drafted in a Convoy Raid with my D5L and ended up CTD.

Just once? You were drafted? So the drafter had taken a convoy escort mission? There is one TraceyG convoy raid mission and one Karnak convoy escort mission is why I ask, if it reoccurs I'll pull the corresponding mission.

3- Several other missions ended in CTD but all were with a particular wing.  He stated he did not have any blocking programs running, but unfortunate that this did happen when he was in same hex.

Best to report mission issues with someone you know you have no connection issues with.

4- Had loads of fun.

 

Um...think all this happened the other night during the SQL test.    I had a non-ending MM also.

Ah that makes sense....

[Bonk]

Bonk,
Played some missions last night.  Some solo, some with human allies.  I flew a variety of missions in different hexes.  Nothing negative to report.  Just had lots of fun.  Great map, great game concept.  Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication!

Glad to hear it, and you're welcome! 

[Dfly]

My appologies Bonk, I forgot to mention it was during the SQL tests.  Was tired.

I just changed my 'nick' in my GSA account and logged on sucessfully but now the same account cannot be found when I try to log onto dynaverse in OP. I know my forge career will be gone but is there a waiting period or something for the account in the game ??

Since you already started the campaign under one certain name, with one certain email, you can't change it in the middle of it.
You can start a different account, or go back to your old account, one or the other.

[KBF MalaK]

I actually started a new 'career' last night under the old name only as far as getting a character set up in the forge for the tourney i thought was gonna be on the forge. I have yet to play a mission on the forge since the reset a few days ago, and unless someone can delete my 'new' account on the forge I'll have to wait.. 4 months for the next reset.

[KBFLordKrueg]

Why delete it if you can get on under another name?
You can have as many accounts as you want. Probably should stick to the same side, but, it's just a fun server, not a seriious campaign, so you could even have accounts on both sides...it's just kinda "frowned" upon to do so normally.

[Dfly]

It is to my understanding that the Forge is more of a FFA.  there are no alliances I think(maybe I should check before saying this lol).  A new account needs a new email addy and new name.  do that, and you are in.

The Forge has been reset! New map, new alliances, slower years (4 days per game year).

Well now, I seem to have run into a problem that so far I have not solved, which I beleive is the same problem posted earlier by Malak I believe.

I was on the old Forge and could access shiplist.  New Forge up and running, I have played on it(with a new email and account, from same computer) for the latest version.  I went to access the Webships and it tells me that I am not registered with them under the name of the old account.   

I have so far been unable to log into the Webship part with the new account as it keeps coming up that my old account is no longer registered.   

[Bonk]

To use the webyards your Dynaverse login e-mail must match your Dynaverse.net forums e-mail. (you can change the e-mail address associated with your forums account here...)

I guess I'll have to go back to the old way of doing it and abandon the idea of forums integration, it just does not seem to be getting through to people.

I will post when I have undone the work I put into integrating the webyards with the forums.    (later this week)

[Dfly]

please dont undo, just explain, again and again, till we get it, how we can have more than one account, with more than 1 email addy, and be able to access both. 
One of mine is for Feds, and one for ISC.  Unfortunately I cannot access the webshiplist from my Fed account due to the fact that I have an ISC account from the former Forge.

[Bonk]

lol, OK its like this:

The Forge webyards use the relatively secure forums login. It looks up the e-mail address associated with your forum account. Then it looks in the dynaverse server database for this e-mail address. If it exists, it loads the shipyard allowing that character to purchase ships. If that e-mail address does not exist in the dynaverse server database then it will give you some error message to that effect.

I have one character on The Forge. The Gamespy login that I use to login to the dynaverse has the same e-mail address associated with it as my e-mail address on this forums acount.

Lets say I wanted to have a second account on The Forge and be able to use the webyards with it. I could either change the e-mail address for my forums account to match the new dynaverse character or I could create a new account on the forums that uses the same e-mail address as the gamespy login associated with the new character.

Clear as mud?

[Dfly]

Clear as mud provided you mean these forum accounts email.

[Bonk]

Yes, I refer to the e-mail address used on your Dynaverse.net forums account(s).

[KBF-Soth]

Just change your e-mail addy here in your profile to match your e-mail addy for the acct you are using on the Dyna at the time.

Bonk, I attacked hex 28,17 - a neutral hex, def 1 - with a Klingon ship and when the hex flipped it came up green, the news post read "Taken by Romulan Empire".  No Roms were in the area...

[Dfly]

I half expected Josh to report the same type thing in another hexx earlier tonight.  He attacked it as a Hydran, and as he came out I came out only a second behind him, flipping it Fed.  I figured since he did not report it he must have seen me in there.  I am in no way saying this happened to Standarte and I do beleive his statement, just commenting on what Josh may have seen, which is similar.

OK that is truly weird. I have never seen that happen before. There is no good reason for it. Perhaps the mission is at fault. It wasn't "Joint Ops Patrol" by any chance was it?

Though as Dfly suggests something else may have happened. Were you in mission a long time and perhaps a Rom was busy there while you were in mission? Lemme check the battle log...
