just download the app http://www.gameranger.com/ It will see that you have Emperor installed on your PC. All you have to do is host or join a game. That simple. Check it out

Ok so I have Xwis and Gameranger installed on my PC and it appears that both servers support Emperor. If there are any players left? Where do you guys play and how can I get online with you. Take Care Jason

I suspect many will be happy with this news. I would of liked to see a new Dune movie as it may have paved the way for a new Dune RTS game. Oh well I guess it is better off Jason http://movies.ign.com/articles/115/1157166p1.html

http://movies.ign.com/articles/113/1133104p1.html I kinda wish the new movies would center on the Machine Crusade novels. Actually I want a new movie to spark intrest in a new RTS strategy DUNE game. Take Care Jason

I found this server while trying to find a method to get online with Ahe Of Empires 2. Once I joined the server lobby I was shoked to see that Emperor was a supported game in the drop down menu. Try out this server it seems to wok good. http://www.gameranger.com/

Just got the game going. Months back I could not get the xwis tool to work with vista. Nw it does? Anyway I am good for Thursday and Fridaty eveniongs after 11pm USA eastern time. Take care Jasonspaz

Just curious if EA still has it? Or has it reverted back to the Herbert Estate? Since a new movie will be out in a few years, a new RTS Dune game is bound to happen. take care jason

I am always hunting for the latest news on Dune. Here is a new story http://movies.ign.com/articles/106/1065212p1.html

nampigai, what the hell are you talking about! lol This is a new director. Back in 2008 I posted (in here) the news from Paramount, that a Peter Berg was due to direct the new Dune movie. http://forum.dune2k.com/index.php?topic=20522.0 Apparently he was booted and replaced with the new director Pierre Morel. Yeah he claims he is a fan and he does bring up some ponts that even the die hard fans agree with. At least in the end we may get a new Dune RTS game out of the new movie

Ok, I launched xwis as an administrator, and made the proper adjustments, I think. I am able to get the xwis utility running and I eneter in the RA server numbers in the top line. Now when I try to log in I get a bad password. I am certain my password is correct since I have used it on emperor for years. What now? Also I noticed the XWIS set tab button is missing? When I eneter in the RA server numbers, there is no tab to set them like I remember there was in the past. Thanks in advance

I followed these instructions NOTE: If you are running Vista you must change the permissions on the Hosts file in order for the XWIS tool to work. You MUST be in an administrator acct. to do this! Go to C/windows/system32/drivers/etc Right click on the Hosts file-select properties. Select the Security Tab. Under group or user names select(highlight) users, click on the Edit button. Under the allow column select all except the last one(special permissions) Click apply and then OK until your out. The problem I have is when it says go to "Go to C/windows/system32/drivers/etc" I dont know how to get there. I managed to right click the xwis program and then go to preperties, which I was able to find the adjustments mentioned above. I am so lost though XWIS syas " your host file could not be updated" Can someone explain to me like a child...lol and exact step by step to get xwis running on Visata so I can get online to battle the Harkonen. Thanks in advance JASON

It is a good read. At least this guy is a true fan of the series. http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2010/01/13/exclusive-dune-director-explains-plans-for-faster-movie-better-representations-of-clothes-and-tech/
