Turns of No Brainer - Page 2

I sent the turn - UNZIPPED - to both Shawnmmcc and shadowlord3. I hope it works this time

shadowlord3 · February 16, 2003, 21:49

Nope that didnt work either. Go ahead and replay the turn and save it again. Than send it to me.

Mr. Harley · February 17, 2003, 03:49

Well, at least now I don't feel so stupid

sevencubed · February 17, 2003, 18:23

I replayed the turn and sent it to shadowlord3. Let's see this time.

to check to make sure you click End Your Turn before saving and exiting.

shadowlord3 · February 17, 2003, 21:11

The last turn he sent also did not work and I have ask for the turn he received before playing.

sevencubed · February 18, 2003, 16:04

ok, I sent to the CMN the turn I received from Arcainite prior to my last playing

sevencubed · February 22, 2003, 17:08

no news from the CMN yet?

shadowlord3 · February 22, 2003, 17:29

I have replayed from the first turn and from Sevencubed 2nd end turn and have had no problems. 2 different people have won. But the turn you sent does not work and I have no clue why. This early in the game I guess a restart would be best, if everyone doesnt mind.

sevencubed · February 22, 2003, 18:36

ok with me. Is there a possibility that the problem is caused by the bug that mixes the faction slots (taking those from my last SP game) ? I have replayed my turn with the correct slots, should i sent it to you, give it a try...?

shadowlord3 · February 22, 2003, 18:41

You may send it but I don’t if that is the problem. It didn’t work for shawnmmcc or me. Plus I have played in over 30 games now without that ever being a problem. If that were the problem than I wouldn’t play because it would be way too much of a hassle before every game to set the factions in the correct order.

sevencubed · February 22, 2003, 18:48

you are right. So we wait for the rest of the players to notify here for the restart

Arcainite · February 22, 2003, 22:52

Well, I don't think it was me that did anything wrong. I've been running a game called Arcainite Agenda with no problems except for when I forgot to end my turn before I saved and exited one time.... I don't know what the problem is here. Apparently Sevencubed was able to play his turn so I really doubt it was anything that I did that messed it up.

PS - Yeah, so I guess restart if we have to...what a mess.

Mr. Harley · February 23, 2003, 00:57

Restart is fine with me, or if sevencubed wants he can send me a zipped save again trying his slot/sequence solution. I would suggest we fix this first, because whatever bug caused this can surface again, and on turn 50 that would really stink (I am carfully avoiding being edited, my language should that happen would not be fit to print)

. Also, which SMAX patch is Sevencubed running? I assume he has the English version of the game (I've read the German one is buggy - I have no idea how many versions Firaxis made). We could send him a USA alpha.txt if the problem continues? Or any other files people suggest the problem could be in, I'll happily help out using my wife's college account which shouldn't mind fairly large attachments.

Gibsie · February 23, 2003, 09:51

I'm back now, no resolution? Oh well. Actually on my first turn I didn't click "End turn" before saving but DuncanK reported no problems... so what#re we doing?

sevencubed · February 25, 2003, 17:43

I'm using SMAX v.2, the version is in English, and I always make all my moves, click the END TURN then save, so i don't think there is where the problem is.

Shawnmmcc, I sent you a zipped save again with the slot/sequence solution, just in case...

Gibsie · February 26, 2003, 14:29

Man it'd be nice to get my second turn

Mr. Harley · February 27, 2003, 09:45

It's dead, Jim

. I'll email people that we need to restart. Shadowlord, thanks for all the work.

Gibsie · March 2, 2003, 10:42

So... let's restart then!

DuncanK · March 4, 2003, 15:56

Ok, SL3 sent the run for the restart. I'll take it and we can restart.

DuncanK · March 4, 2003, 16:25

turn sent.

It's the same original file so I hope it's ok.

Arcainite · March 5, 2003, 06:22

I already have a worm that may or may not kill my scout.

turn sent

I'll be away until Monday...sorry folks

Gibsie · March 9, 2003, 07:25

I just hope Shawn's not busy with his family... what crime that would be!

Mr. Harley · March 10, 2003, 11:22

Gibsie - it's your turn - I took a baby break and played the turn

Alandra Jane Carroll, 7 lb. 10oz (and my wife's only 4 ft 10 in tall!!! ). Born early Thursday morning - sleep, what's sleep (quote, Hope Carroll, after three days with a newborn

Gibsie · March 12, 2003, 15:04

Hooray!

But do I mean for the baby or the turn..? Aw hell, I'll cheer both!

Turn sent

Arcainite · March 15, 2003, 13:08

Turn sent!
Prophet Arcainite
PS - I thought encountering worms on turn 1 was going to go poorly for me, but it turned out that I beat them so I guess it was a good thing for some extra energy early on.

sevencubed · March 15, 2003, 19:42

turn sent, 2103 to shawn

Gibsie · March 20, 2003, 14:04

Wah, why does my turn have to be after the guy who dares to have priorities in life greater than a video game?!
