dynocat Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I've been playing the map Huzzar with a friend by PBEM with my macbook pro. We've almost reached turn 30 but now the game files are above 20mb and i can't email my turn back to my friend because the file is too large. I've tried compressing the file but that barely changed the size. To send the file i'm going to the outgoing email folder and attaching the file to the email. Is there something I'm doing wrong or something I'm missing to get the files smaller? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way out of this situation is to use dropbox or as I do besides this to use skype in direct connection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynocat Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Thanks. I guess i'll try dropbox out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankster65 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Also, "sendthisfile" works good as well but try dropbox first, most people here use that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Dropbox is a splendid thing. And combined with H2HH it's simple magic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanzfeld Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Does anyone know why the files get bigger and bigger the longer you play even if there are no reenforcments? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger33 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Does anyone know why the files get bigger and bigger the longer you play even if there are no reenforcments? I've only played a few "big" scenarios and it tended to peak once most of the units were in action, then steadily declined as units were knocked off and less orders given. It's been while though so I might be mistaken. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
