dpabrams Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 1. Currently about one in every 10-12 PBEM game turns does not save. 2. Half tracks occasionally do not complete loading a unit. The troop door is left open after the leg unit enters. Movement orders are issued to the half track and there it sits, door open, not moving. Player must exit the leg unit and reload, hoping the troop door closes. I posted at the tech forum and got ZERO reponses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruceov2 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Its about 50% of the time with me that the turn does not save. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 be interesting if the three of you have anything in common on your machines. My opponents and I have exchanged literally hundreds of files and only once have we had an issue with one turn being corrupted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tread Head Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 About every 7 for me... My brother with the same PC never has a game not save? I have had a game not save 4 times in a row once.... I save manually now every time (a real pain) but at least when the game fails to save I can just reload that file with all my orders already plotted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelU Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I'd say one in ten as well. Sometimes CMBN crashes to desktop on saving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos49 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 here i like to know how big was the game in save file MB ? I only see this at my PC when the files get over 50 MB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The very first step in checking out a PBEM corrupted file problem is to look at the email the player uses. I had all the problems described above with various emails (including gmail--my current address). When I switched to "SendthisThisFile", an FTP free fileshare program I never sent another corrupted file. I did get a number of them from players who did not use some kind of dedicated file shareprogram. Email attachments just aren't reliable...no matter what size they purport to handle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I've never had problems with turns not saving, however sometimes the auto numbering goes into reverse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I have not had a corrupted file so far. But I have had the .ema file not save issue. I am pretty sure that I have not seen it happen with the 1.01 version only the 1.0 version (I still have two games going using 1.0). It happened to me this morning and the file size was 3 488Kb. I don't think files size is the issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tread Head Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I'd say one in ten as well. Sometimes CMBN crashes to desktop on saving. Mine crashes as well... right as the file is done saving... not only do I have to restart the game the file didn't save either.... I thought this was just my PC and have not reported it.... I guess I am not alone after all.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
