PBEM game not registering with non host

Mon Dec 17, 2007 2:28 pm

Hi -

Currently have one PBEM game going with no issues.

Just started another. My opponent is the host. We traded turn 1 with no issues. He has just sent turn 2's .trn file, and it doesn't register when I go to "load game" - it is not visible to be selected. It is as if it doesn't exist.

I've attached the .trn if that helps.

Thanks for the help. Love the game.

Do you have a seperate folder for each game?

Give each trn file its own name when you unzip it.

a trn which is not seen in your load game means that it has been taken over by the AI. It has been taken over by the AI because your order file was not processed. This generally means the host did not put in the right place the .ord

Exchange all your files in zip or rar format by email with the host also, it prevents file corruption.
