[00:11] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> not very fluent
[00:12] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> idk if its just steam being a bad streaming service
[00:12] Lovenji_OP> I don't usually watch steam
[00:12] Lovenji_OP> but they keep goiing into options
[00:12] Lovenji_OP> so maybe it is like that for them too
[00:13] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> that sky lol
[00:13] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> 5 pixels
[00:13] Lovenji_OP> very pretty yes yes

[00:19] mulletsquirrel in
[00:19] mulletsquirrel> heyo
[00:19] mulletsquirrel> just looking to get some experience playing multiplayer
[00:19] Lovenji_OP> You need me to slap you around in a 1v1 mullet :P
[00:20] mulletsquirrel> I'd be up for that
[00:20] Lovenji_OP> been a bit busy celebrating our steam release
[00:20] Lovenji_OP> but I got some time now
[00:20] mulletsquirrel> can you link me to that discord
[00:20] mulletsquirrel> What Steam release?
[00:21] Lovenji_OP> Populous was released on steam today
[00:21] mulletsquirrel> sus.gif
[00:21] Lovenji_OP> https://discord.gg/BheR7hTH this is the unofficial player discord
[00:21] Lovenji_OP> if that's the one you mean
[00:21] FreeInca in
[00:22] FreeInca out
[00:22] Lovenji_OP> I suppose you don't have a preference to the red or yellow base
[00:22] Lovenji_OP> probably haven't played enough 1v1 maps
[00:22] mulletsquirrel> yeah I don't know the differences
[00:23] Bully-Maguire_OP in
[00:29] E465_OP> does it work with computer players?
[00:29] IncaWarrior> dunno
[00:29] IncaWarrior> Lovenji: join
[00:29] E465_OP> hes in game
[00:30] E465_OP> we can test like this if you want
[00:30] IncaWarrior> can try it
[00:30] E465_OP> 1.5 d or b
[00:30] IncaWarrior> b
[00:31] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> i can test if need an extra
[00:32] E465_OP> i have a complicated solution to get both povs, you could add ally scripts for the extra player?
[00:32] E465_OP> so everyone is allied to the host
[00:33] IncaWarrior> that shouldn't be needed
[00:35] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> is there a difference between watcher and spectator
[00:35] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> what playernum is either?
[00:35] IncaWarrior> yes, watcher is a player in game with no followers
[00:35] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> a spectator's playernum is whoever hes currently spectating?
[00:36] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> a watcher lets say on position 3 will always be that playernum (green)
[00:36] IncaWarrior> yeah a spectator is the one they're spectating or red if they spectate blue
[00:37] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> lua should have some variable or flag to see if this player is a spectator
[00:37] IncaWarrior> that's pretty hard
[00:38] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> sadge
[00:38] IncaWarrior> the spectator's game thinkgs it's just the player they're spectating
[00:38] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> yeah
[00:38] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> but it allows to click icons to change spectator
[00:38] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> so tehre must be something already in there
[00:39] IncaWarrior> that works by the mm intercepting the ally change packet and then changing the playernum
[00:40] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> :200iq:
[00:46] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> time to watch lovenji's video :ohyes:

[00:50] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> damn
[00:50] Lovenji_OP> okay
[00:50] Lovenji_OP> did you test the fog without me
[00:50] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> lovenji was so excited filming that
[00:50] Lovenji_OP> or do you need my help
[00:50] mulletsquirrel> RIP me
[00:51] mulletsquirrel> thanks for the game Lovenji
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> gg wp mullet
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> you do some things okay tbh
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> you're just slow
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> you don't take enough ground with your towers
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> and you didn't finish building your base
[00:51] mulletsquirrel> yeah I forgot about mid
[00:51] mulletsquirrel> I forgot to keep building back
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> If your opponent controls a lot of map on PP
[00:51] Lovenji_OP> you lose
[00:52] Lovenji_OP> that's why we like the map
[00:52] Lovenji_OP> makes you fight in many directions
[00:52] Lovenji_OP> and fight for territory
[00:52] mulletsquirrel> forces lots of multitasking
[00:52] mulletsquirrel> which I suck at lol
[00:52] Lovenji_OP> Sometimes in a good game mid control swaps 5-6 times
[00:52] mulletsquirrel> I feel I'm getting better, but just a lot to remember
[00:53] mulletsquirrel> I noticed you cast no ghost army
[00:54] Lovenji_OP> I don't cast ghost army to fight shamans
[00:54] [Rw]FreeMatt in
[00:54] mulletsquirrel> not even for towers?
[00:54] Lovenji_OP> It's mana I don't need to spend
[00:54] Lovenji_OP> I should do it for towers yeah
[00:54] Lovenji_OP> that's just me playing lazy
[00:55] [Rw]FreeMatt> dafuk u do to the MM inca
[00:55] [Rw]FreeMatt> shit is booty ugly
[00:55] [Rw]FreeMatt> Did i see inca is trying to charge to download populous now?
[00:55] mulletsquirrel> When your front gets EQ like that, what do you do to not get cremated
[00:55] Lovenji_OP> I'm quite a sloppy 1v1 player
[00:55] Lovenji_OP> because I don't play a lot of it
[00:55] mulletsquirrel> I know I didn't have a deep enough tower line
[00:55] mulletsquirrel> or is it just pretty much over by then
[00:55] Lovenji_OP> Your front is going to get EQd
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> you just rebuild the towers
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> the second the EQ goes down
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> place new ones
[00:56] SepulturaMb in
[00:56] mulletsquirrel> landbridge it to make the land nice though?
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> you want your front being EQd, your front is not your base
[00:56] [Rw]FreeMatt> Hello? is inca charging to download populous now?
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> If you mean your actual base
[00:56] Lovenji_OP> then when your base takes EQs you may need to LB to fix your paths yeah
[00:56] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> why u make why did you do the installation of populos with money?
[00:57] [Rw]FreeMatt> i cant even tell what play u are buddy cuz u have too many name changes

[01:23] crash> randomly of all places hotdealsuk is where I saw it was now on Steam
[01:23] Lovenji_OP> I didn't know at all, just saw it in the staff channel
[01:23] Lovenji_OP> and thought "I gotta test this and then get on it"
[01:23] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> ill be a random hostbot in case someone needs a host
[01:24] Lovenji_OP> That's nice of you
[01:24] Lovenji_OP> I would but I'm going to bed soon, it's 1:30am

[01:25] TheUnknownM in
[01:25] imtim> like, are they requered to play?
[01:25] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> they host a game for you
[01:25] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> but dont play
[01:25] Lovenji_OP> They host a game for you if you don't know how to port forward
[01:25] imtim> ohh ok
[01:25] imtim> where do i get one?
[01:25] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> join here if you want ill host you both
[01:25] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> if i can
[01:26] imtim> so you gotta be a bot to host?
[01:26] Lovenji_OP> Some players will host if you ask
[01:26] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> in this case, im a hosthuman, not hostbot
[01:26] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> :kekw:
[01:26] Lovenji_OP> otherwise you can message Minibot
[01:26] Lovenji_OP> Minibot is actually a bot
[01:26] imtim> oh lol
[01:26] Lovenji_OP> Divinity is just a nice guy
[01:26] imtim> but like, how are you able to host and I cant?
[01:26] Lovenji_OP> We forwarded our ports
[01:27] imtim> ohhhhh
[01:27] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> doesnt always work, but help a lot
[01:27] Lovenji_OP> To set up hosting, you must have your computer''s IP set to static. Then visit your router setup page http://192.168.1.254 and forward port 7575 UDP to 192.168.1.76
[01:27] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> helps
[01:27] Lovenji_OP> Exactly this
[01:27] imtim> then with the bot, where he at?
[01:27] Lovenji_OP> Just message it directly
[01:27] Lovenji_OP> he's on the side
[01:27] Lovenji_OP> Minibot_UK
[01:28] imtim> can you host
[01:28] Minibot_UK> imtim: This is a 1v1 host bot located in London, UK which anyone can use. First send me a message saying 'host'. When you are in my hut, you can send me 'start', 'pp', 'cr', 'fo', 'rank', 'unrank', 'maps', '<color name>'. There is much less lag than when the players host themselves. This is especially useful with players from different locations (use the bot which gives both players the lowest ping). Thanks to Taity-Mini for the server.
[01:28] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> message him, and he will give you instructions
[01:28] imtim> you guys are real ones
[01:28] [Rw]Zebra_Motley_Boy> to message him in private chat, double click his name
[01:28] imtim> i appreciate yall
[01:28] imtim> host
[01:28] Lovenji_OP> we appreciate you too, thanks for swinging in

[02:49] Minibot_UK> SepulturaMb: This is a 1v1 host bot located in London, UK which anyone can use. First send me a message saying 'host'. When you are in my hut, you can send me 'start', 'pp', 'cr', 'fo', 'rank', 'unrank', 'maps', '<color name>'. There is much less lag than when the players host themselves.

[02:49] MasacruAlex> Guys
[02:49] MasacruAlex> Populous is now on steam for 2$
[02:49] Bignoobmanfr out
[02:49] SepulturaMb> And?
[02:49] SepulturaMb> Its free here
[02:49] MasacruAlex> It's great news, might bring more people
[02:50] SepulturaMb> I hope that happens, you first joined in 2007, why aren't you an active player now?
[02:50] MasacruAlex> got carried by other things lol, but now seeing pop again, i might pop more often
[02:51] MasacruAlex out
[02:53] MasacruAlex in
[02:53] MasacruAlex> mm updated
[02:53] SepulturaMb> What was the highest rank you reached?
[02:53] MasacruAlex> Eh not so much, was never that good
[02:54] MasacruAlex> I think i've played more on warg's mm ages ago lol been awhile
[02:55] ExLordDeath> gg
[02:55] mulletsquirrel> man why does populous move my windows around when it starts?
[02:55] SepulturaMb> Well, when you feel like playing a game, let me know.
[02:55] MasacruAlex> ok so i just installed the MM and i think it messed my steam installation, says it can't find no gfx that can run 3d or some shit
[02:55] IncaWarrior> mulletsquirrel: it changes the resolution
[02:55] MasacruAlex> lemme see
[02:56] mulletsquirrel> ah good point
[02:56] SepulturaMb> I don't know, it happens to me too, but when the game ends, everything goes back to normal. Could you beat him?
[02:56] IncaWarrior> you can enable Direct3d 9 in graphics settings
[02:56] IncaWarrior> that'll make it better
[02:56] SepulturaMb> Inca
[02:56] SepulturaMb> Why do you omit what I wrote to you today?
[02:56] MasacruAlex> I have, now does it automatically patch my pop game?
[02:56] SepulturaMb> Why doesn't minibot_uk host 1.5?
[02:57] IncaWarrior> MasacruAlex: yes
[02:57] IncaWarrior> SepulturaMb: I think he just can't start it once it's launched
[02:57] MasacruAlex> still gives me the 3d device error.
[02:57] SepulturaMb> I don't understand the answer to the question I asked you, sorry.
[02:58] MasacruAlex> The game runs via pop3 exe but not through the exe steam tries to run the game via.
[02:58] IncaWarrior> SepulturaMb: it probably could host 1.5 but it doesn't support it and we would have to figure out why
[02:58] IncaWarrior> MasacruAlex: true, it copies it into a different folder
[02:58] IncaWarrior> you can access it by typing !pop
[02:59] [Rw]FreeMatt in
[02:59] MasacruAlex> should I paste that over my pop nstallation?
[02:59] SepulturaMb> It would be very important for minibot_uk to be able to host 1.5, it would give those of us in Latam the possibility of obtaining better ranks. Currently I am limited, because no one high-ranking wants to play 1vs1 with me, due to the high ping we generate.
[03:00] IncaWarrior> what if they host? then it's just you that has the bad pings
[03:00] mulletsquirrel> good job keeping Populous alive
[03:00] mulletsquirrel> my childhood
[03:01] SepulturaMb> Sure, the minibot makes pings more stable for both players. If they host, I am always affected, if I host, they are affected.
[03:01] SepulturaMb> Do you understand the point?
[03:01] IncaWarrior> yes of course, that's why we made it
[03:01] MasacruAlex> Inca do you have idea for a fix? Since steam people might install popre then not be able to run the game via steam,
[03:02] IncaWarrior> if you host a game here does it work now?
[03:02] mulletsquirrel> heading out, later
[03:03] SepulturaMb> I hope they get minibot_uk hosting on 1.5 soon; It is a great limitation for players from Latin America, like Lucas, Fawhen and me.
[03:03] MasacruAlex> I can host here and launch
[03:03] MasacruAlex> Just get the 3d error when launching via steam.
[03:03] IncaWarrior> ohhh
[03:03] MasacruAlex> I wonder if it's some exe file i gotta rename and replace in the main game's folder that'll fix that 3d error.
[03:04] IncaWarrior> problem is the steam version tries to launch the hardware version of the game
[03:04] IncaWarrior> but it doesn't work as well as software
[03:04] MasacruAlex> Any idea which exe that is?
[03:04] MasacruAlex> I'll just replace it with the pop3. one
[03:04] MasacruAlex> oh it goes for the d3 exe. I see.
[03:05] IncaWarrior> you can run poptb.exe
[03:05] MasacruAlex> Ok it works. I've renamed pop3. to d3dpoptb and overwrote that exe. Now it launches fine via steam 1.5 and get in game steam as well.
[03:06] MasacruAlex> I'll mention it on the steam game hub for ppl to do after installing the mm.
[03:07] SepulturaMb> Inca, another question, there are no possibilities of having a minibot_US? I understand that this would improve the pings even more.
[03:07] IncaWarrior> someone could host one
[03:08] IncaWarrior> MasacruAlex: you can see the instructions here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3174956917
[03:08] IncaWarrior> for the alternate launch commands

[03:10] driftminister out
[03:11] SepulturaMb out
[03:11] MasacruAlex> Ah great that's already there.
[03:12] MasacruAlex> btw inca, is it possible when i host here and launch, for steam to detect i'm playing pop? Or it's launching another version
[03:13] IncaWarrior> unfortunately you have to launch it through steam it looks like
[03:14] IncaWarrior> could have the mm launch it through steam but then everytime you launched it would prompt you for elevation to open steam
[03:15] MasacruAlex> and if steam is on at all times is that an issue or?
[03:15] IncaWarrior> yeah it still prompts even if steam is already running
[03:15] MasacruAlex> how would i go about launching it like that
[03:16] Bignoobmanfr in
[03:16] IncaWarrior> you can't, I would have to add an option in the mm to do it
[03:16] MasacruAlex> Ah. Not gonna lie, that'd be great :P
[03:17] MasacruAlex> being able to take pics on steam and shit it's great
[03:18] Saito_Vdm out
[03:18] IncaWarrior> it would give a lot more publicity to pop, but I think launching that way might be more trouble than it's worth
[03:19] MasacruAlex> can it be tested though?
[03:19] MasacruAlex> or it'd take a lot of work on your side to put it in?
[03:19] IncaWarrior> looks like a lot of work
[03:21] MasacruAlex> am sad now
[03:25] [Rw]FreeMatt out
[03:26] Bignoobmanfr out
[03:27] MasacruAlex> is it possible to have the game's exe redirect to the !pop game's exe?
[03:27] MasacruAlex> with commandlines and shit
[03:29] IncaWarrior> it has to pass a bunch of parameters to the game too
[03:30] IncaWarrior> and some of the stuff like game stats and anti-cheat wouldn't work right
[03:31] MasacruAlex> ah i see
[03:33] Sammy77 in
[03:43] MasacruAlex> Is there no way to make the steam version launch pop3 and not d3dpopTb?
