ToB Returning

[ChainsOfChaos]

Hello everyone , i'm an ancient ToB player from long ago when it was starting and continued to follow it until it died. Just recently i joined the ToB bot and found out it was starting back up again. ToB has always been my favorite wc3 map. I have a bot and i will be hosting Tides Of Blood on West server. I want this map to get back up there. It really is amazing.

You'll probably win the lottery before bringing ToB back. All the power to you though!

Hi there, I'm Psychokinesis on Battle.net. It was my game that you joined. Make sure to set your bot up so that it hosts on USEast, and Europe too.

Best of luck.

[ChainsOfChaos]

Totally forgot how to make it host on other servers. Care to help?

[Merlin]

It's pretty simple. Under Battle.net configuration, you'll see bnet, bnet2, bnet3, and probably more numbers. Each number will be used for a different server. I set bnet to USEast, bnet2 to USWest, and bnet3 to Europe, a little like this:

Code: Select all

############################
# BATTLE.NET CONFIGURATION #
############################

bnet_server = useast.battle.net
bnet_serveralias = USEast
bnet_cdkeyroc = your2ndsetofROCcdkeys
bnet_cdkeytft = your2ndsetofTFTcdkeys
bnet_username = yourbotsname
bnet_password = yourbotspw
bnet_firstchannel =
bnet_rootadmin = yourname
bnet_commandtrigger = !
bnet_holdfriends = 1
bnet_holdclan = 1
bnet_publiccommands = 1
bnet_custom_war3version = 26

bnet2_server = uswest.battle.net
bnet2_serveralias = USWest
bnet2_cdkeyroc = your2ndsetofROCcdkeys
bnet2_cdkeytft = your2ndsetofTFTcdkeys
bnet2_username = yourbotsname
bnet2_password = yourbotspw
bnet2_firstchannel =
bnet2_rootadmin = yourname
bnet2_commandtrigger = !
bnet2_holdfriends = 1
bnet2_holdclan = 1
bnet2_publiccommands = 1
bnet2_custom_war3version = 26

bnet3_server = europe.battle.net
bnet3_serveralias = Europe
bnet3_cdkeyroc = your2ndsetofROCcdkeys
bnet3_cdkeytft = your2ndsetofTFTcdkeys
bnet3_username = yourbotsname
bnet3_password = yourbotspw
bnet3_firstchannel =
bnet3_rootadmin = yourname
bnet3_commandtrigger = !
bnet3_holdfriends = 1
bnet3_holdclan = 1
bnet3_publiccommands = 1
bnet3_custom_war3version = 26

You will need to make accounts for your bot on each server before it can connect, of course.

[ChainsOfChaos]

so the 2nd set of cdkeys i use for bot goes into all of them?

[Merlin]

Yes. It's basically copy/paste with numbers added to the end of "bnet", and different servers.

[ChainsOfChaos]

my config only shows how to get 1 more server not another 2 like your said. do i just type the thingy again for another server?

[Merlin]

Yeah, type it in if it's not there already.

[ChainsOfChaos]

nvm lol , it was just an example for pvpgn servers. i erased that stuff and made it normal . I'll prob be hosting in a few mins.

I also used to play ToB alot (quite sometime ago) and its awesome to see the new map and how its changed, I like the characteristics the make it different from Dota but i was wondering (as i have no idea if its come up) whether their is/will be/could be a version with AI?

[busterkomo]

Never going to happen. Decent AI takes a long-ass time to make.

[Turkey_Slayer]

What he said, and it also wouldn't be attacking the actual problem.

[RageAgainstVoid]

There already is a version with AI, a very realistic life of its own.

Though it is very indecent. Oh you treacherous mule..

[Arthas_Teranas]

Sometimes I dream of a standalone Tides of Blood. I'd play the shit out of that.

*goes back to DotA 2*

[pix]

hey guys, pLex will 3v3 anyone at anytime. just lemme know.

[Turkey_Slayer]

Are any people still actively playing? If so, I'll check it out, but 3v3's are fucking lackluster.

standalone Tides of Blood

All of my want.

[pix]

you scared? nin, jelly and i will take all challengers.

[Turkey_Slayer]

I'LL THROW DOWN ALL DAY BITCH

[MagicCarpetRide]

I am in whenever.

[calperr]

I would lose my shit if there was a Tides of Blood stand alone, but also if I could get real matches going. I'm going to start bugging the hell out of my LoL team and Sw:tor guild. Wish me luck!

[pix]

you all suck at this game.

[Turkey_Slayer]

I never see anyone on.

[Kairael]

Feel free to add me to play, though I still need to DL it. Screen name is Kairael on US West and haven't played ToB for like 8 years, so gonna be rusty!
