Can anyone send a save game with the lag problem to Pocus?

Greetings. Last week, Pocus asked if I would send him a save game with the lag problem. I cannot do so, because my save files were deleted somehow. I am not very good with computers.

I know many others have had a problem with the F4 - F11 lag times, which really disrupt the game.

I do think we have a chance to have a patch that would fix this and the immortal garrison problem - with these problems solved, the 1.04 beta patch would be a huge improvement to the game.

Sorry for whining, but it is a real loss to be unable to enjoy PON for over a year. In my view, no other game even comes close.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help, and I apologize for my lack of computer skills, which makes this request necessary.

problem is I unistalled the 1.04 version, in order to be able to continue to play, and play only with 1.03e (precisely because lag made 1.03 version unplayable), so all my saves are with 1.03e

else, if I want to lag again, it's easy, will just install the 1.04 again - I don't know if linked with saves, is with engine version I guess, but I let Pocus expertise it (if possible on a normal powered PC) he's uncommensurably more competent than I am

I've got exactly the same issue. If I run a turn using 1.04 then trying to use F4 etc is nearly impossible, but the same turn with 1.03e and its all ok. So its not really differences in the save but in the game engine I use. However, I've attached a very late game save (from 1919) that can be tested using both versions:

Thank you very much Loki for once again doing the PoN comunity a great favor! I have never installed the 1.04 after I read about the two bugs it had, so I couldn't help here.

Cheers. :)

Loki, my deepest thanks. It is hard to express how grateful I am for all you have done for this game, and you have just stepped up again to help us all.

Thanks Loki! I'll look into that with my off-work hours no later than this Sunday :)
