Not sure if any of you play of have a great board game we have here called "Monopoly"....

I have one of the early versions of it and much prefer it to all the recent releases with their flashy graphics etc...anyway if anyone is interested it might be a good online game to have here as it multi-tasks nicely and doesnt use up many system resources...it also allows for online chatting....

if it is popular we could hold tournamnets with small prizes for the winner etc....let me know what you think...and if you wanna give it a go...download from here...and lets see if we can get a six player game going...

Dang, I'm interested, but the main problem is my poor PC, very unstable lately..
Second problem I just realized beeing there, in the next weeks, I'll still be online most of the time, but not for long periods of time... maybe I'll be here 200 times, from 0 to 23.59, but just for some minutes and then aways, so I doubt I'll have long periods available for online playing...

Jabba
08-16-2003, 08:14 PM
ahhh OK TT....well its just an experiment for now anyway....I only have the UK version so the street names will be a bit strange...where as the US version has US street names I think and the same for Canada...but I dont know where I can get those versions from right now....

sbbs
08-16-2003, 08:24 PM
I have the original UK version and a Malaysia version :) I love playing it but suck at playing it. Hehehe....

Yeah, I think this is a good idea. Online playing, get to know more people.

Jabba
08-16-2003, 08:26 PM
well you will soon get better....if anyone is downloading it on a fast connection...I will wait around a bit longer and see if we can get a game started here....

Jabba
08-16-2003, 08:32 PM
kill the terrible music and kill the movies..and then you got a really fast and great game....

dont let the graphics put you off...its all about the game play....

It's easy dude, buy property, add houses or hotels, people land on it and pay you money. you win when everyone else goes bankrupt.

I'll play, I love this game.

I can't open the file. It's .cdi

Same here, it says I need a password or something.

I tried "jabba" for the password and it worked. Then, I can't open it coz the file extension is .cdi. Any idea how to run it?

Jabba
08-17-2003, 07:28 AM
very good work to find the password so quickly....burning it should be no problem for you now....you need a program like disc juggler that burns CDI files...I will upload it shortly for everyone that doesnt have access it...

sbbs

thats good but this is better

http://www.playsite.com/games/list.gsp?root=playsite.board.monopoly

:D we can play each other online

Thanks for the link...but I am not a big fan of this version...as it has crashed on me many times right in the middle of a game....the version I have uploaded is easy for me to control as it doesnt require any outside servers...and connects directly to the players playing.....therefore that will be the offical version here...and the one where you can play for the $20 first prize (per tournament)

Jabba
08-17-2003, 07:53 AM
program to burn the CD

let me know if you need any help applying the cracks or burning the CD

What do you mean? Burn the file into cd? Too bad, I don't have a CD burner.

Jabba
08-17-2003, 07:58 AM
ahhhh shit.....how on earth do you get by without one.....the program checks for the CD for security....I know there is a way around this with DAMON TOOLS but I will have to investigate further for you...

sbbs

Don't worry man, it's just 4 days. I think once this game is started, it will never stop. Am I right guys?

Jabba
08-17-2003, 10:31 AM
I am waiting for someone else to download it so I can start a game....

gis
08-17-2003, 10:47 AM
ill be ready soon jabba.only 32MB to go :D

Ziploc
08-17-2003, 12:08 PM
ive been done

ill start burning :)

oh fuck! since i didn't restart after install and registration im stuck burning at 4.1X :x

shoulbn't be long jabba

doesn't recognize the CD so i can't play :(

Ziploc
08-17-2003, 01:33 PM
oh well i off see you all in 4 days!

Wide
08-17-2003, 02:46 PM
I burned it with Nero.. But windows cant read the disc..
I have never seen an error in win. like this..
Now I`m downloadin your program.. I`ll try with yours..

Jabba
08-17-2003, 03:04 PM
yeh it defently works...but it is fussy about which CD-ROM drive you use...if you have more than one on your system....

Jabba
08-17-2003, 03:05 PM
oh well i off see you all in 4 days!

come back soon...hopefully we will all be ready for a few games....

Wide
08-17-2003, 03:27 PM
damn.. Installed and patched succesfully.. but whenever I want to burn the cdi program always crashed and terminates it self...

Wide
08-17-2003, 03:58 PM
Ok.. Solved the problem.. Installed and restarting windows..
For those who downloaded the image file.. If you will use Jabbas recording program.. Do not directly double click the cdi file or do not drag the file on the destination.. Write manually the destination then start the process..If you dont program will terminate itself..

Jabba
08-17-2003, 04:07 PM
ok have you got the game running yet...???? dont be put off by the music...kill it as soon as you can...under options.....

Wide
08-17-2003, 04:14 PM
Problems never end..
now it always asks for cd..
puttin cd in drive but still wants it
wait afew searchin for cd key

Jabba
08-17-2003, 04:15 PM
it does that with me...but I just tried puting it into my other drive and it worked fine....

Wide
08-17-2003, 04:24 PM
finally done.. Solved with changing the drive as you said.. (game is I think 17th centuries game ehehe)

Jabba
08-17-2003, 04:26 PM
yes...it was made in about 95....but its still much nicer and faster with better game play...than all the pretty ones made today....

Wide
08-17-2003, 04:27 PM
give me your ip adress

Jabba
08-17-2003, 04:28 PM
ok...will do...just to test it...then I have to go out in about 30 mins...(we might be able to get one game in though)

Wide
08-17-2003, 04:29 PM
of course.. I have 2 go 2.. Its a bit late in here..

Wide
08-17-2003, 05:19 PM
Finally.. We played with Jabba.. There is nothing different with the real board game.. Only one difference It will be so much fun with multiple players..

For those who dont know how to burn and install.. (it gave some problems)
1)Download the Zip file.. and the Jabbas burning program..
2)Extract the Zip File..
3)Install the burning program and crack it..
4)Open the program.. Choose the burn image to cd section..
5)At the coming screen ***manually*** write the destination of file..
6)After the finalising the burning restart windows..
7)Game wants cd (if you put the cd in cdrom) if its still needs cd.. put it in the writer..
8)Play the game.. (disablein the sounds and animations are run the game faster)

Good Luck..

Sayin again It has so much fun.. Monopoly lovers must have this one..
People who dont know how to play.. Just join game and learn easly..

scrap that idea.. apparently, i'm an idiot that doesn't know how to download.. this has happened quite a bit recently.. the file downloads, and i get the "archive error".. i'd use the zip fix app, but i dont think it will be of much use since i need all of the zip file.. i don't want to waste bandwidth, so i'll wait till tomorrow for what you think jabba.. night all
