Multiplayer Anyone?

[ChexCommander]

TO ALL MULTIPLAYER CQ-PEOPLE OUT THERE:

This topic is a general multiplayer topic regarding CQ Multiplayer games via Skulltag, a DooM client. You may discuss multiplayer topics here, as well as talk about matches or anything to do with multiplayer, really.

I am the main CQ host on Skulltag.  The server is called Chex Quest United, and the password is zorcher.

Time: 24/7, baby! BC's Rambus server is up and rolling.

Here is a basic list of the things you will need:

• Skulltag
• The Ultimate Chex Quest Phase I; The Ultimate Chex Quest Phase II beta 3
• The Ultimate Chex Quest Phase II beta 3 ZDoom patch
• Zorchmatch
• TNCQ G2 IWAD and Expansion Pack Release 6, obtainable from the TNCQ G2 Sub-forum
• Chex Quest: Journey of Legends (aka chex3.wad), can be found on the CQ:JOL Sub-forum

OUTDATED - SEE THIS TOPIC FOR MORE CURRENT AND UPDATED INFO

This list is constantly being updated, so check back for more info.  Have fun, and Happy Zorching!

Legacy has poor multiplayer support, and Zorchmatch matches have been difficult to pull of because of that. I might be able to host TUCQ Phase I tonight on Skulltag like I did before, but it would be on dial-up, and I can't guarantee the best results. Do you have DSL, or something that isn't dial-up, broadband, or Wi-Fi? You might be able to host.

[ChexCommander]

Yeah I have broadband, so everything goes like clockwork.  Maybe I could host, I'll check.

[Atariangamer]

that'd be awesome! but, you do know why we can't play lucius octavion's zorchmatch on GZDooM/Skulltag, i hope? The most we can do is play regular DooM or TUCQ phase one.

Yeah, I know.  TUCQ Phase I is fine by my standards.

If you can host, post here, I would be interested in joining if we had a host with good internet...

[Atariangamer]

I would love it! Dang...actually, if this keeps up, we might be able to do this regularly.

A FEW THINGS, though:
1. No DM...unless you find out how to fix LO:ZM to work.
2. Passworded. Period. (other people will come in, steal clan tags...[CQ] BTW...)
3. no mods...unless they work flawlessly.

Thats basically it. and I stress No. 2

[ChexCommander]

Sure, I can host...

I agree... Coop, but...

-Chatting should be used sparingly (and appropriately!!!)
-Password: zorcher

And that's it.  Give me some times to host, and I'll see if they work

[ChexCommander]

Oh, not to double-post, but I want everyone to be the Chex Warrior; It can be a symbol of our clan or something like that.

[Atariangamer]

well, we usually use chex warrior in CQ...if anyone gets in somehow and has something different and doesn't change...we'll know.

Plus, in your name, put the tag [CQ] in front. like mine is :

[CQ]ATARIANGAMER

GameMaster (the first member to attempt a skulltag cq match) was:

[CQ]CYLINDER (his other nickname)

OH! And also, edit the DM flags and turn off mouse aim. This is to keep with the original setting.

And good to have you back! (did you get my pm?)

[Pikazec2012]

hmm what all do i need to play i want to play (does it work on dial up?

[Atariangamer]

well, the default set up is:

1. Get Skulltag and install it using the installer.
2. Place chex.wad renamed to doomu.wad or DOOM.wad in the Skulltag folder.
3. Put both TUCQ Phase 1 and TUCQ Phase 2 Beta 3 in the Skulltag folder as well. (DO NOT RENAME!)
4. Configure your settings.

Yes, dial up will connect, but you might lag some. Is okay, though. (can you imagine everything being dial up, even hosting?)

There is better info in the original topics...buried in the 2nd or 3rd page of general disscusion.

atariangamer replied while I was typing away and decided to preview my post.

I might try to host tomorrow if ChexCommander is a no-show. I can't guarantee the best results, but I will try my best. Default time is 7:00 PM Central time.

[Pikazec2012]

Where can i get skull tag and what if i dont have part 1 i only have 2part3

[Manny Cav]

You can get Skulltag at http://skulltag.com/. You will need TUCQ Phase I, as that is what we play with most often, and what I plan on using, should I be able to host tomorrow.

EDIT: How did I miss the fact that ChexCommander posted today!?

EDIT: Come to think of it, why do we need TUCQ Phase II Beta 3 if we will not be using it in the first place?
