Warloc Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 After I play a game with two of us using TCP/IP we take a break from the game and then later on, when we resume the game using autosave, either one or the other players front end locks up after the turn loads. Any help appreciated. Thx. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Which title is this, CMBO, CMBB or CMAK ? Is this TCP/IP connection over the Internet or a LAN ? How many times has this happened, with just one game or have different games had the same problem ? What platform are both of the computers, Windows or Mac ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warloc Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 CMBO with both computers (one with Win2k and one with WinXP) having the problem. TCP/IP connection. Autosave turn just wont load properly. It has happened more than once. The turn loads, and then the front end just freezes up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 With CMBO there is a bug (that no patch corrects) where if a crew gets captured the generating/crunching computer will see the turn fine, but the receiving computer will lockup during the download. To get around this the receiving computer's autosave file of that game must be used in a PBEM for a turn or so and then you can resume the TCP/IP game... until another crew is captured. This means that the last plotted moves of the previous turn are lost. CMBB & CMAK don't have this particular bug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
