Mofo1995 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 So, if anyone's been active in the Discord chat, you would know that I've been trying to get together a group to do Artemis Bridge Simulator, which is a game where you and some other players are all bridge officers aboard a starship and have to complete quests or wage war and keep your ship maintained and well. I'm looking for just a prototypical group right now for some basic work such as figuring out if we can play directly over the internet or possibly need to use something like Evolve or Hamachi to host servers. If Prototyping goes well, the ultimate goal is to make Aurora-themed missions by using a war server, and to hopefully get multiple ships and crews over time. If you already have the game: great! Contact me and we can get to work figuring this out. If not, message me and I can send you a download link that I put up, with complimentary ERP logs with signatures included in the file. Hopefully we'll one day be able to bring RP into the fold as well, once we get the mechanics and balancing down, such as staffing these ships with Aurora crew members for flavor. EDIT: Whoops. I realize there's already a thread for this game, but uh, it's pretty old and would have been necro'd. Quote Link to comment
TishinaStalker Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Where can I get this game? Quote Link to comment
coolbc2000 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Make that two, where can I get this game? Quote Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Where can I get this game? I'll send you the download link of the game that I put up, but alternatively you can purchase a copy off the developer or on steam. If you opt for the download link, the file is a .zip file so you will need 7zip or winrar to extract the files. Quote Link to comment
coolbc2000 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Right'O cheers mate. Quote Link to comment
Lord Lag Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I have the game, played it with friends. Accidentally nuked ourselves. 10/10 great banter was had. Quote Link to comment
CampinKiller Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Have it, want to play it. Quote Link to comment
coolbc2000 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 How is it looking with that Zip file? Quote Link to comment
SirStem Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Consider me interested. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I have it, I'd have to get over my vocal-dysphoria to play since it relies heavily on communication, but I'd perhaps be interested. Quote Link to comment
UnknownMurder Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I'll happily join. When do we start? Quote Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 All righty, I'll PM everyone links, we start whenever everyone is able to play. But since negotiating time is always a pain, let's assume no one has lives and pick this Friday afternoon (GMT-5)? Quote Link to comment
SirStem Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Gonna have to drop out now, my schedule just got a lot more hectic. Sorry, all. Quote Link to comment
Arrow768 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I would join in if you still need people. Quote Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 The more the merrier! Today I'm trouble-shooting of ran online service to host a server on. Normally I'd use Evolve, but it seems it's surged in popularity, and its servers are overcrowded. Quote Link to comment
UnknownMurder Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Mofo and I are experimenting things and found the easiest VPN Hamachi software. https://www.vpn.net/ Quote Link to comment
Arrow768 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 If you would want to I could host it. Not sure how good it will be performance wise, because the server will be in central europe, but it would be worth a try. And it should negate the need of a vpn software. (Not 100% sure because I dont know if you have to setup a port forwarding for the server and the client or only the server; Usually its enough if you setup a port forwarding for the server) Quote Link to comment
UnknownMurder Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I'm not sure what you need, but Mofo and I tested it, and we managed to get through with LAN Hamachi. Mofo will explain it. Quote Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 We did successfully utilize Hamachi (linked above) as a VPN to run our first simulation aboard the NMS Diphead. Otherwise, we could try that if people wanted, but I think the game is lacking online play support since it's made specifically for use with LAN. But, I could be wrong given my lack of knowledge on networks. Either way, we've run our maiden voyage, if anyone wants to play get ahold of me and we can begin our training missions!

UnknownMurder Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Only if I could imagine a fleet of N.S.S. swarming up together to defeat opposing forces or even PvP. Quote Link to comment
Mofo1995 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Hmm, just realized Hamachi has a five person limit. So, if we could get a private server to work somehow that would be dandy. Quote Link to comment
UnknownMurder Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 However, our current issues are: Hamachi which I found out has a 5 people (unless you pay subscription). Evolve VPN which is hard to find a VPN Party for all of us. Otherwise, does anyone have a software that we all can use or Arrow's private server? Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 If/when we play, official dibs on Communications Officer Quote Link to comment
Arrow768 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Toungle would be an alternative for up to 32 people. But I still think its better to go without a vpn client. If someone else wants to host it but has issues setting up a port forwarding, I can offer my help. Quote Link to comment
Lord Lag Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Im up for it whenever. I can make a gmt -5 time. Quote Link to comment
