Alright, let's see if we can get a game going around 7:00 UTC-8.
 
Who's in?

[Kagus]

Can't.  I've already got three different games I'm playing right now, and I might need to add in a turn of Dwarf Fortress on top of that.

...besides, I was always hilariously bad at versus matches.  And it's been ages since I played, so I don't have any creatures.


EDIT:  You know what we should do?  Get together a bunch of people with fresh creatures, and rope them all together with leashes.  Just sit back and see what they do.  It'd be great fun.

[Apple Master]

I'd have to reinstall it, but I'm down for that. Actually what time is that GMT?

[head]

I'l be down for a game what patch are we useing?

[PTTG??]

I'd say 1.3 with an additional third party patch from the Free Information Society. If you need the P5DLL.dll (The patch doesn't come with it for some reason), it's available online. Just put it in the lionhead\black and white folder.
 
UTC0 is GMT.
UTC-8 is Pacific.
 
There needs to be Standard Internet Time. It's 12 hours off from GMT, since we're all nocturnal anyway.

[Lumbajak]

Standard Internet Time is whatever timezone happens to be between Bill Gates and Al Gore at the moment.

[PTTG??]

OK, T-NOW until start game time.

Anyone want to host this? If push comes to shove, I can, but I hate having to deal with port forwarding and it can be temperamental on my system.
Since I personally haven't even gotten a creature yet, I propose we all start with fresh creatures. I think it defaults to Ape, so it'll be Monkey Kingdom.

How do I find a copy of this game? No store I know of sells PC games that old. I loved the second one and have heard great things about the first.

I would like to know also.

Might need to 'find' it somewhere on the interwebs.

[PTTG??]

OK, Try 75.208.44.244 : 6012.
No promises it'll work, but it might.

It's not like the developers are getting any money any more and thinking, 'oh hey, B&W1 is making money, let's make B&W3!'

[PTTG??]

Um... does anyone know how to start a LAN game?

If you're just joining us, try to join the lobby at:

75.208.44.244 : 6012

EDIT:looks like somebody's got it working! (Besides me)
Who's there? It shows one connection other than my own.
Nevermind... it's my port check tool. Heh. Well, at least the port's open.

Where did everybody go?

And how do I start this multiplayer game? Ah, just leave it open. These people are chimps over at ol' Lionhead...

Speaking of Chimps, it's 8:00 people. I thought everyone was spoiling to go for a game...

[quinnr]

I don't have it yet :-P

It'll take a while to download.

[PTTG??]

Alright, let's try scheduling this again sometime. How about 2:00 AM GMT Saturday, (that is 6:00 Pacific)?
