Imperial Civil War Tech Support / Re: Cannot seem to play at all in Mutliplayer?

Try selecting a vanilla map. It won't be fully playable, but it should help uss see where the problem's coming from.

Well, I found one of your posts at this link: http://gutr.swrebellion.com/forums/index.php/topic,1599.0.html

which suggests that we all need to move the Skirmish Maps to the CustomMaps folder.

Imperial Civil War Tech Support / Cannot seem to play at all in Mutliplayer?

« on: February 13, 2013, 08:10:49 PM »

So, me and a few friends have been looking for some mods to play.  We found ICW, and figured we would try it.  It seems any map, any amount of players will give a sync error everytime.  I know that most the time, Sync errors will happen when there is tons of stuff on the map, paired with the game's primitive engine and the hardware of other players computers, most the time maps like that will Sync error.  It has happened with other people as well, not just us.  My friends, however, and I have good hardware, that is not the problem.  Is there anyone else with this problem?  We are using ICW 2.0 with Hotfix 1 and Hotfix 2.

The mismatch was supposed to be fixed when the retail-version uses the updated FoC RAM patch, but i've not seen any confirmation that this is actually the case.

I can confirm that it works.  Though, it would seem that due to some unknown reasons that it will most likely not work unless you install the patch on a freshly installed copy of the game.  And, I have a friend that told me it would seem that mods break it, though he was using Republic at War, which installs patches to the game itself (apparently, that is what he told me, idk) but me and some other friends are in the process of trying out Imperial Civil War in mulitplayer - me and another are on Steam, the other is on Retail.  Will get back to you guys on whether or not Imperial Civil War breaks the compatibility.

Actually, there is a way to fix the compatibility issue.  Steam users do not have to do anything, but for all Retail users, install the FoC Ram Patch, and it will fix the issue.  Though, it would seem that due to some unknown reasons that it will most likely not work unless you install the patch on a freshly installed copy of the game.  And, I have a friend that told me it would seem that mods break it, though he was using Republic at War, which installs patches to the game itself (apparently, that is what he told me, idk) but me and some other friends are in the process of trying out Imperial Civil War in mulitplayer - me and another are on Steam, the other is on Retail.  Will get back to you guys on whether or not Imperial Civil War breaks the compatibility.
