Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

and so strange to me when i try to open the turns before these ones : they open whithout any problem with the SAME CTP !!!

i get lost

if i had something different inside my files, i wouldn't be able to open them !!!

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

ok ... after a huge brainstorming and many manipulations, i got a clue for what's happened getting the message error above in another post ...

this is mainly for macusers who play with pc users i think but if Blackice could open the files i send to him and if Blackice has a pc, then i can reasonably think it's rather a matter of mac users but if pc users met such a similar strange thing ... so ...

MAC PBEM USERS : YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE

here the window of the mail app on panther ( X 10.3 ) - don't know if the problem would be similar on jaguar ( X 10.2 )



as you see, we can put 2 files with drag and drop on our desktop and too click on the save all button ( "tout enregistrer" on the image )

most of time, no problem at all with the drag and drop action ... once the file is on the desktop, we drag it on mac transmogrifier ( the guy who made this app is a saint !!! ) and then, we can play our turn on a pbem challenge.

BUT ................. it seems that sometimes, it happens some strange problem coming from outer space ( it happened to me all day long !!!!!! )
the file i want to play doesn't open and i got a message error

980424-JRL-013 - Unable to read same game file
Load Game Error



of course, if the other challenger doesn't play with the same CTP : the error message is a "normal" thing

but if the challenger has the same CTP and no file has been changed in both games ... what to do except pick own hair away ?

then ... today, i tried so many times to play those files i couldn't open whithout changing anything to my CTP i finally found why ( hope so ! )

as i said before, most of time, no problem at all with the drag and drop action but today, i couldn't open almost all games i received ... and tonight, when i click on the button "save all" instead of the drag and drop, miracle ! they succeed to open as usually !!!

cool isn't it ?

so there it is, the virtual adventure of my day

hope i'm going to play and have fun now ... still 2 turns of 2 different games that i didn't test yet ...

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

now ... it's grandpa troll who can't read my files

never saw something like this

and now ... going to zzzzzzzzz ... to many emotions for today and my girlfriend is angry after me ... too much time on the computer trying just to understand what happened with your files guys ...

now it seems everybody can open my files : normal : i play with the same basic CTP since hundred of turns !

the only thing which scares me : virus !!! but do we have to think that maybe we play with kind of corrupted files ? is this possible ???

good night to everyone
