The host isn't treated that differently from any other player in a peer to peer setup. Each player sends data to every other player. The host is there for reporting and being the official "speaker" for the game.

The problem occurs whenever the Force of Light control the map event fires. The event fires whenever the forces of Light control more than 75% (or 80%) of the map, lose a flag, but still control more than 75% (or 80%) of the map.

So we are getting the hosting setup. Awuffleablehedgie is setting his PS3 up for UberFix hosting. I have also started a project on Google Code. If you'd like higher levels of access to the Google Code site, please contact me with the gmail account you want me to grant access.

re: Russian Forces of Light control the Map Fix So, only two strings in the file were altered (to fix the problem). Both were mistranslated. Only one of these strings effected game stability, but I fixed both. These strings are flag_0000 and flag_0001. The translations I used were based on google's translation, but matched the Cyrllic letter patterns in the other strings. I don't know how m

I'm still not convinced that there isn't a relationship. When testing (also with pacov at one point) there were significantly more server update requests following a capture event then when not following a capture event. Failing these requests may cause desyncs.

Good Morning, In case you aren't familiar with me, I'm the project lead for the UberFix, a mod for Demigod that is working to fix bugs in the 1.20.0214 version of Demigods. I'm trying to find a good way to change the text in Demigod and be consistent across English and non-English versions of the game. The problem is that I don't know how non-English versions of Demigod are different from the English version (the one I have). If you have a non-English version of Demigods could

Give the guy a break, this is appropriate place to ask the question. Also, the SD forums are the official forums for the game. Edit: Official North American forum (as referenced by GPG). Atari is supposed to have the official non-North American Forum, but they don't really support Demigod at all. They have one forum in the German section with 3 posts. Edit 2: Sorry LO. I misread what you wrote. It looked like you were getting on his case for posting. My bad, I apologiz

re:UhelligGudn on lifebars That's about what I found. I recall a few other things in the UI folder that looked promising, but nothing definite. re:UhelligGudn on Other bugs I'm pretty sure they have Lua solutions.

So, as Frogboy stated, these recent race threads have been filled with misconception. In order to me to understand the issues, I was forced to use an analogy. I found that it helped, and seeing how this confusion is still on going, I believe it may help others as well. My analogy was to view Demigods in terms of the division of Europe following the Reformation. This was when Europe was divided between Catholicism and Protestantism. (Also, please forgive my liberties with timelines, ethnicitie

re: health bar sizes I looked into this a while back, but didn't get very far before getting distracted. To reproduce the bug. Turn on health bars using ~. Reduce your demigod's life to 50% of maxhealth. Zoom in and out and notice how the health bar changes. The visual display is not consistent across zoom levels. I don't remember the functions and file names, however I'm pretty sure it is in /lua

I spent about a half hour trying to fix some formatting in the OP for the buglist, but I gave up in the end. If we do transfer over to Google or something else, this work would be redundant, so I'm skipping it for now. 1.03 Patch List (unreleased) Knockback XP fix by Ptarth Units that die because of knockback should now reward experience and gold correctly.

re: RAWRRR on Summon Idols I don't disagree that it may be a better solution. However it is a balance fix. In the last few patches the values to make minions steer were purposefully adjusted.

re: UB Ooze Suicide It is 25:20 in the video. The UB is under the effects of a Sigil of Life and Penitence. When the Sigil ends he takes 63 (or 68) points of damage, most likely from Ooze. He then dies. I'd imagine that the check for ooze hits, it passes, and then the sigil health reduction occurs between that check at the damage done from the ooze. re: TB/QoT Form Respawn Acknowl

Pretty close to exactly beneath, I'd say within 1 map unit of his center. It is easy to replicate. Target a warrior and then right click to move next to it. He sometimes starts his attack animation but usually not.

re: NonEnglish Install Is this confirmed with an initial nonEnglish install and not just changing the Demigod initiation files? I know I sound like a stick-in-the-mud, but I try to make sure all the bases are covered. If we currently believe the patch was not localized, then we can change the blueprint string reference and it will work out. re: Oculus not attacking beneath him <p style="padding-l

Does anyone know someone who uses a non-English version of Demigods? I'd like to know what the 1.20 patch changed on their installation.
