Public Commander Keen Forum

hey, there is a game called Netkeen that looks REALLY fun! but its hard to setup. so can sombodey walk me thourgh the steps please?

You can find instructions for setting up Netkeen on Lemm's website: http://netkeen.nfshost.com/guide.html

And on the Keenwiki: http://www.shikadi.net/keenwiki/Netkeen

If you don't have anyone to play with, you can join us for matches in the Netkeen irc channel at #netkeen on the foonetic network.

Further Netkeen discussion should be taking place here viewtopic.php?t=1856.

well ive tried to use this walkthrough but it dosnt work for me.v >:

One common solution to "it doesn't work for me" is actually telling us where in the instructions you're having trouble so that we can help

could u like, make me a video showing how to do it and send it to me in a email pleasssssssssssssssssssssssse?

A video walkthrough would be a good idea, but it should be put up on youtube for all keeners and potential keeners to see and use.

Fresh off the stove, a tutorial...

I apologize for the screwed up audio, its behind, and i sound possessed. CamStudio sucks.

Finally a video. What is -modes 2? 2 player game?

-nodes 2, not modes, but yes it refers to the number of players... and no, im not using yang, i find that it overcomplicates things as opposed to the opposite, especially setting it up.

[try 720p!]

When I saw that in my subscriptions it was almost enough to make me try again to get Netkeen running (not enough though as I have quite a bit of coursework at the moment). Also, CamStudio does not suck - it is awesome! CamStudio is open-source while its only real competitor is Shareware and watermarks every video produced on the free version (I think you know the software to which I refer).

okay, i understand how to play with other people now. but when i try to play the demo the screen just gose blue. please help.

Haha yes i do know the software to which you were referring *shudder*.

Ill rephrase my criticism: CamStudio's audio compresser sucks, but the program DOES work quite well.

The demo feature just allows you to play recordings that you have made of past matches and isn't actually a playable demo of the game. It will not work unless you have actually recorded a demo to play in it. Thus, you shouldn't really need it, and you're good to go.

I'll also be making a video on how to HOST a server and game in the coming week.[/quote]
