RBP13 IT and Tech Issues Thread

Any Steam players in this game? Apparently they've removed Direct IP connection in their latest update making pitboss games unplayable. There is more discussion in the General civ thread about this.
I'm confused, we're playing a mod, this still an issue?
I do have my CDs and the USPS...
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.
I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.
Because it's a patch to the base game that just alters the MP code and removes DirectIP from the game
Roll back to the prior version of Civ4BeyondSword.exe and keep using the RB Mod CvGameCoreDLL.dll, you should be able to connect using Direct IP fine.

I have made a post in the official 2K forums about the removal of Direct IP from Steam versions of the game. Here it is:
http://forums.2k.com/showthread.php?5631...IV-Pitboss To everyone who plays Direct IP games: Please take a minute to register an account, and make a short post in the thread linked above. I suggest to write in your short message: - Your username and which civ fansite(s) you hail from. - Which version of the game you purchased (CD or Steam). - Mention how this issue affects all players, because even CD users can't continue Direct IP games with Steam users. The removal of Direct IP from Steam divides an already small multiplayer community down the middle. - End with a strong request that Direct IP be re-integrated into the Steam version of Civ4. Feel free to use your own words. Be firm, but civil - profanity won't help the cause. For example, in my case: Quote:I am Lord Parkin from Civfanatics and Realms Beyond. I purchased the CD version of Civ4. I am deeply disappointed with the removal of Direct IP from Steam versions, because all of my friends with the Steam version can no longer play in our Pitboss games together. This issue has needlessly divided our community. Please re-integrate Direct IP into the Steam version of the Civ4. Please register an account and post your own quick message in the thread linked above now. It only takes a minute, and it could make a real difference!
