Hi @ImTheFrostbite, Unfortunately tagging someone doesn't provide them with any notification like on Facebook. It's simply a way of highlighting names in a thread. To do this, you use the user tags: [member=Lord_Chris[/user] produces [user]Lord_Chris] YOu can find a full list of all BBCode here.

This sounds fantastic! You'll have to let me know when it's done so I can play it :) It's been a very long time now since I played a game of Crusader 2. Looking forward to it!

Hi @Spy I've fixed your link, thanks for sharing. I've also promoted you so you can post links in future- that's just protection against spammy new members. Welcome! You are always more than welcome to submit a file to us here as well for us to host, as that way players will be able to download without needing to provide any personal information :) I've tried downloading, but unfortunately I can't seem to get it working (Windows 8.1). Can you provide a step by step guide of how to use this file exactly?

That's an excellent idea about the additional link. I've added it in now :) As far as the server error goes in Chrome (which is very strange I agree), do you have any idea what the actual error was? This could be very important in helping me fix this ongoing issue.

Thank you! You can do so here: https://www.stronghold-nation.com/downloads/submit/ :)

Hi @JuGGerNaunT, this is a very neat download! Could we upload it to the downloads section on our own site?

Thanks for letting me know. I'll take a look at this for you. In the meantime, does it work if you try now? Also I removed the extra links as in subforums. Unless I've misunderstood what you meant- could you post a screenshot so I can compare between themes?

Typical, the last point it could fail on! I've fixed this now & verified that it's working. I sincerely apologise for the delay in you being able to upload your file!

Welcome to the Nation! We have a growing resource section on Stronghold every day, you will not be disappointed :) Make sure you take the time to drop in on the History Thread by our resident historian [user]crusader1307]- if you like Stronghold, you will love some of the articles that are in there! We really do have some quality content on the site. I'm sorry to hear you've had such a bad experience with Stronghold Heaven. I'm afraid I personally also had a similar experience with submitting files, which is ironically how I created Stronghold Nation in the first place. As far as submitting a download goes, I think you have already found it but you can do so here: https://www.stronghold-nation.com/downloads/submit/ Let me know how it goes!

Sorry to hear you're having this problem. Could you try re-uploading your file now please, but under a different name? I will edit your submission and rename it once approved. Let me know how it goes and I'll try to fix this as soon as possible for you. If the problem persists, you can always email it to me and I can upload it for you- lordchris [at] strongholdnation [dot] co [dot] uk

Yes it was me who fixed the code when I viewed the thread :) The error itself I noticed generally when posting....... I honestly thought it had gone again. Hmmm .......

Anyone still getting this error?

Holiday, what's that! ;) All you need is to be a workaholic like me :lol: :lol: In all seriousness though, glad you enjoyed it @EaglePrince....... and I'll definitely look forward to seeing some photos of it! I've recently taken up a new job to do with my political work, so there's plenty there to keep me busy for now. I just wish I had more time to focus on the site ......

This looks like a really good game....... I've said all along that there's something about this Warlords game that has an interesting twist to it. I will definitely be picking up a copy to play with, I think it's a good way for them to move forward after Crusader 2 as well. I also think there's a good potential for the site on this one too if we can move quickly enough- we already have new sections in place for content.

I've promoted you, you can now post links :)

Lords and Ladies, please welcome the latest addition to the StrongholdNation team, ! [user]EaglePrince] has been a long-standing member of the community with a passion for Stronghold, and with his expert knowledge of the games we felt it was the right time to bring him on board as a full team member with immediate effect. He will be moderating the Stronghold 1, Stronghold Crusader, Stronghold 2 and Stronghold Warlords forums, and we all look very much forward to working with him. Congratulations @EaglePrince!

I understand :) Regarding the errors, I'm honestly not sure right now what is the reason the errors are occurring, but I will try my best to find it out and fix it soon. It is a strange error. But we are currently updating the forum software anyway, so this is a chance to fix it then.

I don't really see the benefit right now of immediately "rushing" into Tapatalk, I'm afraid. I just can't see it having any long-term impact on the success of the forum. Perhaps at some point in the future we will make a plugin for the forum for Tapatalk, but it's likely to be a custom thing for all forums and not just SHN. But for now we're busy focussing on the new release. As far as switching forum software goes, this is not really something I feel comfortable with. For one I don't really see any benefit of making such a move, but also because it would simply be requiring a lot of time and effort to migrate the whole website over (as that's what it would take) simply for the case of a mobile friendly style. The only forum I would consider is Invision Power, the commercial software, yet it would still need to be migrated into the site and I just don't have the time to do it. I honestly don't see the benefit, I am sorry.

Unfortunately, we just don't have the funds for an app as it's too costly. I do know a developer who could do one, but it would be costing upwards of ?2,000-?4,000 and I just don't think it's worth spending; we simply don't have the kind of traffic yet to justify that money sadly. Then there's the ?100 a year fee that Apple charge just to have it on the App Store. The best way to get that traffic, though, is by writing articles etc and attracting it through the web interface first ;) Tapatalk is something which I understand you're very passionate about, but I just can't see at any point in the near future. That said, I can see the issues with the mobile friendliness of the board, but there's not really much I can do I'm afraid- I'm simply not CSS inclined at all. My skills lie almost exclusively with PHP, for the forum I have to rely on a single CSS developer to create all the styles in his own time. I could ask him to create a new gaming style but it's unlikely to match our theme currently. And he works very slowly too so it would likely be several months before it's complete even if he started now. We're also from different timezones too which makes things slower in communicating. I did go ahead just now and take another look at Tapatalk, but it sounds as if they want to host things on their servers. This brings us into all sorts of legal questions such as with (dare I mention) the new GDPR laws (..yuck) and I just don't feel comfortable with another service passing data or handling any data at all. I'm just not sure what to suggest, I'm afraid. If you want to discuss this further, though, feel free to make a topic in Site Questions/Support or PM me. :)

I really like it personally. I think it looks like an exciting alternative to the other games in the series. Annnnnnnd it's good to know Firefly have been reading our site too ;) The Snow they have included was on our SH2 suggestions list so I'm really pleased and excited to see they've included that finally. Yes, I noticed this too. Very disappointing from my perspective as I was hoping they would finally ditch this engine and move onwards. It looks very much like the whole thing is going to be steam-centric again. But I suppose the benefit is that if we get our act together we can quickly become the #1 site for those players who want to seek an alternative. We need as many articles .etc. putting up beforehand as possible, particularly from the older games so when people arrive they realise we're serious. ANy help from anybody would be appreciated :) You know what, I think that hits the nail bang on the head, it does look like Age of Empire a bit now doesn't it. A much more advanced version of course. I'm quite looking forward to this new release. While it doesn't look as much like a Stronghold game, it certainly is a good one for Firefly to release. I hope they're successful with it.

Hmm. Whatever the issue, we'll be refactoring CSRF tokens in the next release so it should be fixed. I can't provide a time limit folks though, I'm afraid. Probably a couple months I should think.

"Big Kev" rampaged my village and burnt it down to the ground giving it the Hannibal treatment...... alas, the Welsh are more accepting of us English :D * Plot Twist * Kev is really @Mathew Steel on his fake account :lol: :lol:

Seems to be a pretty common error..... I'll take a look at it.

It's been happening a lot for me. I'm guessing it's something to do with the fact I'm logged in twice. Are either of you when this happens?

Playing on your iPhone really does make it a lot easier. Although it's still better playing on a desktop. You can't beat a desktop PC when it comes to playing Kingdoms. That is, if you aren't totally destroyed before your village even gets set up (lol).
