Hi all, i'm generally a Battle Academy player, but i come back on FoG these times
i play FoG V1.81 with 4 add ons SoA IfR, SaS, LtR.
I'm on Win10 64 pro.

My friend have only FoG, and a win7 or 8, he see in multiplayer only 4 games, and in multiplayer i see may be 15-20 games, like we are not on the same server.
Each game he create with basic game, i m unable to see them, same on other side.
I precise we create game only in FoG basic, not on add on

I think the FoG's friend is something like V2.5 (recently downloaded)

Where is the problem? How can i fix it?

Thx for answer

You need to be playing the same version. If one is playing the 1.81 version and the other is playing the Unity version then you will not see each other.
My suggestion is having both versions installed in separate folders.

Multiplayer games are stalling at replay so few reach a conclusion. Anything I can do about this? I have the new FOG and it checks for updates, I believe.

Hi all, i stayed on 1.81 because i prefer to play the old version. And today i bought the last extension i didn t have, Rise of Rome, but i got the 2.42 version for.
How can I download RoR in version before the 'connected' one? I'm a little bit lost.

Thank you

Multiplayer games have two problems which are in work for the next patch:
- some gameplay problems, which are affecting both SP and MP, and are practically solved in the new WIP beta builds (see the update thread)
- the MP DAG games having at least an army list with more than one nation per side (ie having allied troop picked up in it) prevent the MP game to start (to be fixed after the above one)

Once you activate the serial in your account on Slitherine's site, it will be activated in both FoG(U) and FoG(RB).

Also, the old FoG(RB) v1.8.1 has no code support anymore back from 2012, from when Hexwar ceased any work on FoG(RB).

Thanks for answer Cothyso, i ignored for Hexwar.

but I find the 'on line version', less pleasant than the old one : only fighting rates in number and not in color (I have bad sight), many results not understandable with movements too speed to see, hard to set a good speed of resolution, no msg for opponent, nobody on gamers lists, etc etc.

I have decided a friend to play FoG, but he is not happy of the new version, so if its possible, i'm looking fr the old .exe of RoR. Is it 'abandonware'?

I have already bought licence and I'll used it for the old version

So is someone can say to me where to find the old RoR?

Thx a lot
