I want to know if I can install FoG to where I am playing the older version of the game. It seems that the MP forum is very lightly used yet I am sure that there are a lot of games being played using the older version of the game (minus the OoF module). So .. if I install my game (again) is there a way to keep it from updating to the Unity version so that I can access (what I think) is the older MP forum where the majority of the games are being played?
Right now in the Unity version of FoG the MP forum is only showing 4-5 games. I added in two games. But I dont see any other games. Is there another FoG forum for the older version of FoG?

Re: Old FoG - How To Install
I had the installer on my PC and didnt even know it. I installed the game, added in the serial numbers for the modules listed. I noted that Eternal Empire, Decline and Fall and the Battle pack were not on the list.
When I pressed the update key at that point I got a network error. Here is the first part of the text I copied from the clipboard:

My network is working fine. Is there something I need to download?

Re: Old FoG - How To Install
have you given it admin rights to reach the internet?
check firewall status to see if that or something else on the pc has blocked it, and you can always do it manually from your members account, same as any game, or find the latest patch on here and just download that, as all updates are inclusive so only that last one is ever needed

I opened the program using the "Run as Administrator" (I am using Windows 10 now) and it still gave me the error message.
Next I checked the firewall settings. I added the Field of Glory .exe to the list. Still got the message. Did a reboot and the same thing happened.
I found the latest update and will update my game tonight.

Game works fine now. Installed latest update and loaded serial numbers for Eternal Empire and Decline and Fall. Went to MP forum and posted a challenge.
