I will look into this some time later today if you haven't figured out how to do this. If I remember correctly, there should be a tutorial how to edit players color on a map among many Stronghold Heaven tutorials.

Thanks for those corrections, I really had troubles how to express my self correctly.

You're welcome. :) Oh, and one more thing - on these maps you can only build wooden walls, and stuff like that. I really like that aspect of Stronghold 3, so I was asking Lord Vetka to make it like that, but you should be able to easily enable more buildings if you want, including stone structures.

I see that Crusader already gave the answer, but I just wanted to add that in Serbia our flag is at half mast on a day of mourning. I believe it's similar or the same in the rest of the world. :) Another fact - you don't actually rise the flag at half mast. You rise it to the top, and then you slowly lower it at half mast. I have heard that they did it for the first time on an English ship which in 17th century which traveled to Canada. On their voyage the captain died, and when they returned to England they had their flag like this. Another interesting fact when it comes to history of USA and Serbia, and flag. In 1818. after the WWI the flag of Serbia was hang (please correct me, I'm almost sure that "hang" isn't the right verb :( ) in the USA to honor our fight for freedom against Autro-Hungaria and their allies. As far as I know, the only other flag which was hang next to the American one in the USA was the French flag. In both cases the flags were hang in all American institutions. People nowadays mostly connect us with Russia, while many consider USA, France, and UK as our traditional allies. Oh, and about the election, maybe this guy has the point. :) http://9gag.com/gag/a2d4Awd

Nicely said, Strife. Unfortunately, being from a country which used to be isolated for a while from the rest of the world, I just have feeling that there is no way to correct this issue. It seems sadly that masses will always be controlled. Back in 90's few people had internet, and people knew only those stuff which they were told to justify some bad things done by the government (or somebody who wasn't in the government, but that's not relevant right now). People had their opinions only based on what they were told by medias. I'm not saying that in those sad times one part was a bad guy, and the other is a good guy, it was far from being black and while, it was a process that couldn't be stopped that moment. Some time later one would think that it is should be better today because we have internet and we have access to information from the rest of the world, but it still doesn't work like that. They can still just bash those foreign media how they have agenda to justify what they want (e.g. to justify supporting rebels in Syria against their government, to justify attack on Libya, etc.), though at least partly that's what people in the Western countries think too (BBC for example). I mean, we simply may not have the correct information about some events, and when that is the case: from false information one could deduce anything. The only way for people to find out something else is when their country starts to get bombed, :( or when their incomes become smaller, etc. Oh, and more importantly, we in Serbia don't have a long democratic tradition, so I was expecting that elections should work better in countries where that is not the case, but it turned out that I was wrong there two. In South Park they joked a little about the elections in the USA, and they were saying how Americans choose for their president from Giant Douche (Trump) and Turd Sandwich (Hillary). When I was younger thought Americans wouldn't come in that situation like us. Each several years we choose between some Giant Douche and some Turd Sandwich, and for 15 years we're looking at those same faces. But yet, it seems that even in the USA it doesn't matter who is better than who, but who will promote themselves more in the media. This paragraph may seem a little bit off topic, but I just give that as one more example of influence by media...

Here are the maps. Brukner Eagles Lair But be aware that I am sending you all versions that I have. There is one version of Eagles Lair in which I think I wasn't able to build armory (it was disabled by mistake), and in some version of the map I think that the lord wasn't able to leave the keep, and that was because of terrain. Now we shall wait for Chris to tell us what's going to be the best thing to do with those maps, and when we submit them to downloads section I am going to remove those download links. :)

Hey, today I'm going to be busy, but I have one map which Lord Vetka created for me. I will check in the download section if he has submitted it to Downloads section, and if not - I would submit it on his behalf. Or, if Chris has a better solution I would send him the map by email. I think he hasn't submitted it, I will check it, but this isn't actually a free build map. I'd rather say it's an easy invasion map with beautiful landscapes on which you could chill. :) Actually there are two maps he created and sent me - one where you start on a hill, I think it is some coastal area, and the other where you're in a valley, there is also some cave on that map. If anyone is in contact with Lord Vetka, please say him hi, and tell him that we miss him here. :(

Unfortunately, I was doing some work, and I didn't find the time to play it. It's such a pity I haven't found any time by now to win this map - I mean at all, not just for this competition. And I think that Nigel deserves all 3 points for his battle accomplishments, this mission really isn't easy. :)

You had a lot of fun I see, I hope I'll be able to give it a shot tomorrow. :)

I haven't been able to play Stronghold Legends Steam Edition since its release, although I did find a little bit time to have a look into the game after I got the update. The only difference I noticed were those Steam related stuff - achievements, Steam multiplayer, etc... Is there anything else?

That is a tough mission, I tried it once before, and I remember I couldn't make it from the first try. I again have some other obligations, :( but I hope to try to win this one.

Hey, I just meant to let you know that pantherone template of the forum is not being displayed properly. It's same on several different browsers by which I tried to visit the forum, including on my phone. Here's the screenshot.

First you click on Private Messages above, and then you'll see a Send Message link. When you lick on it, you will have to type the exact username of the person you want to send the message to. You can find both of their profiles in the tread for which I gave you the link above.

You should be able to send them personal messages on this forum, and if you have some luck - they will receive an email notification. That is, if they haven't disabled these email notifications, but I doubt that. :)

Check this tread. http://forums.stronghold-nation.com/topic/581-stronghold-europe-stronghold-the-medieval-england/ There you may find a way to contact Lord Stronghold, who is creator or Stronghold Medieval England, and CyberCorpse who is creator of the Russian mod Stronghold Europe.

Thanks! :)

Good news is that I have sent the latest version of my seminar to professors. I still want to add some more stuff into that text, but it appears that I am going to be able to join this one. :) No promises, but I would really hate it to miss this one. By the way, how should we do it? As an economic scenario, or war scenario, or or free play, or it doesn't matter? Either way, that could be an interesting map to play. :)

Yes, it is much more clear to me now. :)

Interesting, I will certainly try that. :) I didn't know that GPU can compensate a weaker CPU like that. Thanks for advice. :) EDIT: So, that would be the exact point of buying those most expansive high end GPU's? I mean, even if the CPU is slightly older (still, better than mine, I assume), buying a GPU like that gives way better experience? I mean, those GPU's should be able to run demanding games with high performance, even if CPU is not so powerful? Of course, I still assume that it cannot replace RAM, and of course - CPU has to meet at least minimal system requirements.

Sure, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. ;) And regarding the mac version of Stronghold Legends, I think that it doesn't exist - at least not officially, but I'm not sure. I know there are mac versions of some Stronghold games, but not about this one. On the other hand, there could be some other way to play this game on mac, I have seem some stuff like that on internet, but I don't know anything about it. I don't know even if that is safe, if one would have good performance, nor if it is actually possible.

I am not an expert when it comes to Stronghold Legends, but did you try to play multiplayer with GameRanger? How did you play multiplayer games by now, and how did you try to play it now? Also, do you have Steam version of the game, or a retail (non-Steam) version? As far as I know, you should be able to play it with GameRanger. :) Plus, if you have a Steam version which I haven't tried yet - Firefly said that they are going to make multiplayer easier with the release of Stronghold Legends: Steam Edition.

Well, at this moment we only play strategy games. My mothers plays The Sims 3 which ran well on the older GPU too, and my brother mostly plays European Truck Simulator 2. My guess is that he will be able to play American Truck Simulator as well when he comes home - he's in Germany right now. At least I expect it to run decently. Yeah, we could say it is a low end GPU by the definition for nowadays standards, but I can see the difference, and luckily for me - it's not that there were games I wasn't able to play, it was that I had some games that didn't have quite good performance. With this one performance is much better. Crusader 2 is the newest game I'm going to play with it, and it perhaps even more optimized than Stronghold 3 (with difference that in Crusader 2 you can have more AI opponents, which can make Crusader 2 lag). And yeah, there were options to get a used GPU for same money, but I prefer to have a warranty and to be able to replace it in case the GPU turns out to be incompatible with other components. Also, it would be too much to give like 200 euro for a GPU (average salary in Serbia is about 400 euro). Regarding "just up the resolution", you mean to make a smaller resolution such as 1024x768 (in SH3 and SHC2 it's set on something about 1300x800, something like that)? That's what I have already done. :) Yeah, and I hope I will be able to make a gaming event some time soon, and to have that experience with you guys. :D I could also try making some gameplay video. Back when I got the Crusader 2 licence, I got it to make the gameplay video, and those which I made were lower quality. This would be my way to repay to the good guy Firefly who gave me the game when I wasn't able to buy it. :)

Wasn't it about Stronghold Crusader 1 or 2 in the past week?

I really hope I will manage to make a castle for this one. :)

It's Nvidia GeForce GT 730. :) It's one of the cheapest at this moment with 2GB of memory, but it works pretty well with those games that are the most important to me and others in the family. Actually, it runs smoothly any game any of us likes to play. :) First a friend of mine borrowed me his GPU, and I was stunned how fast it loaded a Stronghold 3 game, and how the game ran on it - especially as I thought I would have to buy a new CPU to have performance like that. Unfortunately I had some compatibility issues with the GPU he borrowed me, and then I decided to spend some money to buy a new at least as good GPU myself. :D I should say - I did have some issues with the old one, but the old one still works. Only the cooler doesn't do the job so well, and I would have to open the case and to clean it and "oil" it. It wouldn't be too hard for me to do that now and then, but like I said - when I saw what I could get, I knew what had to be done. :D
