i havent kept up w posting these on here, so i might do one a day for the last few after this one team 2: @felixix @Marre-Vrickad @defc0n @Irland team 1: @Player of 0AD @Vicktualia @borg- @Havran

hey, i'm a bit unclear as to the time for the next event. the initial post on this thread seems to only list a time for last week, ( 16.04.2023 ) which says 20 CET, so is that going to be the time for this today's game as well? ( maybe edit it to say 20:00 CET so it's more obvious, and/or put 8pm, i kind of skimmed past it at first ) i think that's 2pm on the US east coast where i live, ill be hoping to stream it if i get all my errands done beforehand! also i don't think the total number of pro games planned for this event are listed, or is it just going to be an ongoing thing? i like that idea a lot tbh, but either way it would be nice to have that cleared up oh, and maybe list who's planning on streaming the upcoming event as well, ( if u werent already planning on doing so ) so folks kno where to get commentary alongside watching it live. ill lyk for sure in the next few hours whether to put me on that list for today and one more thing ima bug u about, when a team wins does each individual player on that team get awarded one point? that seemed a bit unclear at first as well, but now that ive re-read it it seems to be the case. perhaps alter the phrasing to 'Each player from the winning team will be awarded a single point' or something like that hope this was helpful, & looking forward to seeing the 0AD Greats duke it out later today!

had to take a lil break for my mental health but should be back regular again, just maybe twice a weekish. already have 2 of the OP tgs sent by the top dogs w community-mod (that i finally got to work lol) recorded so im sooo excited to edit those for ur enjoyment :))) been focusing on music n processing trauma a lot lately but im still tryna find time to actually play games to keep my commentary tight! catch me in the lobby :team 1: @Keko2 (1528) @J.D.zz , (1273) @Tarzan (1266) @jbc (1308) :team 2: @lonzalefantasy , @longsentencename (1403) @Pandrvabal , @zxphxr (1302) commands.txt

Dreamliner (1092) & @BeTe (1243) face off on the very interesting Magadha map, sprawling w fauna which offers the opportunity to run ones food eco off of hunting alone until very far into the game but also presents the very real threat of stalking predators picking off less-armored units also check oute Bete's 0ad vids: https://youtu.be/INIX9xxCtvo commands.txt

maintaining eco while microing rushes is soooo hard but ill never get better unless i practice :3 i would venture to say the audio is actually decent for the first time in a while lol team 1: zxphxr (1283) team 2: @sternstaub (1183) & user03_ (935) commands.txt

@Silierpretty sure the versions are all up to date for both myself & the players who sent the games, i will confirm w the senders that the order im running them in matches up w the order they were recorded in i don't think that's the issue tho bc when i check the box that allows the incompatible replays to also be displayed, all the games that i played w/o community mod show up in grey & upon clicking them they don't play at all, but instead a notification lets me know the correct mods/order that would be necessary for them to work so i assume if the order was an issue i wouldn't be able to play them at all & they would be displayed in a similar capacity i appreciate the suggestion tho, it's def worth investigating & i certainly will. thanks again! <3

thanks to @real_tabasco_sauce i was able to figure out why my community mod wasn't working properly, but im running into another error in the process of trying to record community mod replay vids sent to me by various players for my youtube channel ( 0AD Youtube Vids ) wen i watch any of the replays, at the beginning of the game i get a msg that says 'Out-of-sync error on turn 1. Out-of-sync.' & then the game seems to play normally, but as it progresses certain elements are off that become more obvious as the replays go on. for instance, only a handful of the women are working the fields (like 3 or 4) while the vast majority of them stand idle. other units will stand on top of certain building foundations instead of building them for the entire game. & as a whole, the population increase kind of tapers off and by like 20-25 mins into the game pretty much all the players have only reached around 100 pop , until at a certain point the game just ends unceremoniously. i got thru an entire 1v1 that @Yekaterina sent me that was 24 mins long, slowly realizing that something was off, & then checked the other replays which are mostly 4v4s, & the same odd things were going on in all of them, preceded by the aforementioned error msg. wondering if anybody knows what the source of this error is & can help me fix it so i can finally record these vids. thanks in advance <3 <3 <3

@real_tabasco_sauce so theres another issue unfortunately, hopefully u can help out again. wen i watch any of the replays, at the beginning of the game i get a msg that says 'Out-of-sync error on turn 1. Out-of-sync.' & then the game seems to play normally, but as it progress certain elements are off that become more obvious as the replays go on. for instance, only a handful of the women are working the fields (like 3 or 4) while the vast majority of them stand idle. other units will stand on top of certain building foundations instead of building them for the entire game. & as a whole, the population increase kind of tapers off and by like 20-25 mins into the game pretty much all the players have only reached around 100 pop , until at a certain point the game just ends unceremoniously. i got thru an entire 1v1 that @Yekaterina sent me that was 24 mins long, slowly realizing that something was off, & then checked the other replays which are mostly 4v4s, & the same odd things were going on in all of them. im assuming that error is the reason why. wondering if there's a fix u kno of for this problem as well? tysm!

tysm for the advice @Yekaterina ur the best! also an amazing community member helped me troubleshoot the replay issue, for some reason the community-mod folder was labeled 'user' instead of 'community-mod' and all i had to do was change the name, now all the replays u sent me are appearing! ill most likely make the first vid tn, i cant wait :)))

@real_tabasco_sauce AHHHHH thank you SO MUCH!!!! for some reason there was no folder labeled community-mod in my mods folder, it was labeled 'user' instead (i literally have NO idea why) but i changed the name of the folder from 'user' to 'community-mod' thinking 'theres no freakin way something as simple as changing the name of the folder is going to work' BUT IT WORKED and now i have access to ALL of the replays my 0AD peers have sent me w community mod. thank you so, so much, you are truly a lifesaver! the name of my 0ad youtube channel is zephyr amethyst, in case u want to watch the videos that you helped make possible <3 you are a CHAMP

hello 0AD community, not sure if this is a bug or error on my part, but ive been sent several replays from the players WeirdJokes & Yekaterina to do commentary on for YouTube and none of them have been showing up in the list of replays ive regularly download replays off the forums & received them from other players and they all work fine when i put them in the replays folder. they both use the community mod which i have the latest version of installed so i dont think thats the problem, but something is causing these replays in particular to not appear heres a vid of me downloading and attempting to run one of Kate's replays https://youtu.be/PPNltzI7jh4 if anybody knows a potential cause of the problem / solution i would be immensely grateful, thank you!!!

4v4 match sent to me by @facts , im honestly not the best at commenting on these super chaotic 4v4s, it's rly 0AD Newbie Rush's wheelhouse lol, he's able to provide a level of analysis of the overall arc of the match in a way that tends to escape me at times, (i miss his vids soooo much!) so u might not see too many more 4v4 vids after this one, (also bc lag) but i rly hope i managed to keep the commentary at least somewhat interesting hahahaha team 1 edoput (1495) Firestarter13 (1377) Genos777 (1135) C19H28O2 (1336) team 2 plus_ultra (1418) Spartan299 (1375) facts (1419) kalpeamies (1022) commands.txt

@user1 commands.txtmetadata.json Offender: DARRTHVADER_11 made me chase his hidden units around for 25 minutes even after i asked for him to resign very nicely & told him i had to help my mom with something. then a second before i was about to kill his last unit he left the game. literally so frustrating...

^-^
