The Old God has left the world and the pretenders are awakening and coming out from hiding. You start the game by designing one of the pretender gods that will compete for true ascension to godhood. The type of god can range from a magically powerful arch mage to an ancient kraken or a mystic monolith that people pray to. Your pretender controls one of over sixty different nations and with the help of that nation he will spread his word and battle the other pretenders. Dominions 3 is a turn based strategy game. You can play single- or multiplayer (1 - 23 players) with simultaneous turns. There are more than 1500 different units, 600 spells and 300 magic items in the game. The game also features a medieval musical score by Erik Ask Uppmark and Anna Rynefors, both awarded the title of Musicians of the Realm by the Swedish Zornmärkeskommiten. Dominions 3 is a highly detailed game and a 300 page pdf manual is included in the download.

Forum's mechanics: autosticking adjacent threads. How to prevent it? | Locked | |

This forum sticks two adjacent messages from the same author together. Is there any way to have a control over autosticking forum's feature? Any mean to turn it off or somehow prevent? |

I think it cannot be turned off. I myself am not a fan of the way the forum here works. |

Then it was quite an odd purpose I would say. Edited by: chelubey |

It tends to be a choice between fast discussion or long-term documentation. Many sites do it. They keep their load down by allowing a person only one login. Then they added software to look at a post and see that you were also the last person to post, then attach it. This keeps that one login from bumping up their own stuff. Then when older threads roll off the screen for awhile they lock it, and later they archive it (or just delete it). Many sites do it. This site does offer an alternative since we each get a blog here that we can use to post reviews and how-to guides. They seem to like those. |

>This keeps that one login from bumping up their own stuff. If someone sends senseless information for whatever reasons, it is a common problem for moderators to deal with. At the same time if there are some deep reasons for players to care about bumping their threads (e.g. some game with clan-structure, when clans are interested to keep their threads-advertisements), then such a basic mean as sticking messages won't prevent two (or more) players to bump the thread one after another in turn. Yes, definitely. Especially in late 90ths, when there could be problems to keep the data. And which kind of general "many sites" are you speaking about? >This site does offer an alternative since we each get a blog here that we can use to post reviews and how-to guides. They seem to like those. If I'm game's admin, I need a mean to keep players informed about events/changes. And even if I'm not admin, it is sickly disgusting to make two replies to two people and see your messages glued to each other. Edited by: chelubey |

Apparently Desura's preference is a not an info site. They support their games with a site where people can ask a question and get an answer. And where old information rolls off. Considering some of the complaints that the old Dom3 site had that would have some advantages. And it would seem to work fine for most of their games. Im not arguing that it sucks. Many games of Dom3 are still setup and played. Just not here. I still like the old Shrapnel site better and continue to use it. The forum is much better. And having a private chat room available for each game is fantastic. If they take that down then the game servers themselves might have to step up. I could easily add a forum to www.Dom3Minions.com if needed Edited by: gp1628 |

As far as I remember Shrapnel's forum was supposed to be closed after an year since some date (somewhen in the end of last winter). So we'll have Shrapnel's dom3 forum for just several months more. Is it right? I have quite vague remembrences about that. Edited by: chelubey |

We dont know. Actually its already over the date that Shrapnel promised to keep it open. |

Yes. Particularly the threads with mods, maps, and 3rd party programs attached as zip files. Edited by: gp1628 |
