thor Posted May 29, 2001 Share Posted May 29, 2001 I'm playing a PBEM game, 3000 points, large map. We're on turn 10 and suddenly experienced the following problem. The program would not load my opponents email. It happens thus: I'm on the "load email / join network game" screen. I select load email and the file window appears. I choose the file, hit "open" and then I hear a *ping* and the "load email/join network game" screen appears again. It is as if the game does't recognize the file as a CM PBEM file. We've tried both reloading the file and replotting the turn and saving it as a new file, with the same results. The only thing notable about this turn, from previous ones, is that turn 9 is when our forces first made contact. Any ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxx Posted May 29, 2001 Share Posted May 29, 2001 Thor - see the thread. This happens in multiplayer tcp/ip as well. http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=8&t=001495 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thor Posted May 29, 2001 Author Share Posted May 29, 2001 Thanks Maxx. Guess we'll just have to wait for BF to figure it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 Make sure that your opponent is sending you a valid game file. Is it the same size as all the other files you have gotten in the past or is it very small? See if your opponent can't reload the previous turn and re-issue his orders. My guess is that the file that he sent you is corrupt or truncated. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
