I have sent a mac only turn to sophanthro to see if he can open it.
|
|

|

Right I got the file and it definitely wouldn't open it had some extra stuff in the file like CTPg which I belive is the creator code or something to do with the resource fork someone recommended that I could ?Resedit? to change the resource fork. Unfortunately I don't have that utility and really don't have a clue what the resource fork looks like in the binary.

Can you detach me while we sort this out, it really isnt fair for the other players.
It could be my particular settings.
CTPg -- I recognise that i chose it as part of file translation preference, There were others such as CTPd and CTPs. Perhaps when i set up translation i chose the wrong one???
I have downloaded resedit and will experiment with it tonight. I will also get in touch with my contact in westlake to see if he knows. If he doesnt he probably knows someone who does.
Detach me and i will rejoin later.

BASTON FORCED TO FLEE IN "ROYALIST UPRISING".
This year exiled supporters of the old regime rose up in revolt and forced Baston to flee the territory. He is planning yet another final assault on the capital but his powerbase has been greatly weakened.
|
|
| |
|
|

" Baston will be restored to power" Lord Sophanthro promised, " But for the time being we must let the Native Americans sort out the problems, Assyria will provide whatever aid we can. He also stated that whenever Baston needs support AKA testing a file or whatever the Assyrian government will be more than glad to aid in whatever way possible. In the mean time however, we ask Demosthenes to recognize the New Regime by ressetting the AI to the Native Americans and send the turn along to the Mayans."

Demosthenes of the Welsh nation wishes it to be known that he is regretful of the unesy start that the Welsh have made with the new Native American leader Baston. We hope that he returns from exile soon enough, and that the land to the north can then settle into a normal pattern.
There has been upheaval amongst the tribes of the North for many years, and we believe that Baston will soon return from exile and unite the Native Americans, bringing peace and prosperity to their nation. Whereupon we hope that a new dialogue can be opened between us, and a bright future shine forth upon the world.

The Australian Government has proposed to 'Beelzebub Incarnate' Shavlor that a policy of non-aggression should be adopted towards the NA's during their period of upheaval.
We hope that even such a savage and heathen despot as Shavlor, Azathoth by any other name, should accept this degree of restraint.
Benign Sophanthro, Lord of the Assyrians, has acted as a mediator in this matter though it is to be doubted that Shavlor, he whose name must not be spoken, will answer any call to answer a humanitarian cause. We are hopeful that even Shavlor can be brought to an act of kindness towards the unfortunate NA's by his fraternal neighbour.

The mighty lord Shavlor has accepted the agreement to not attack NA or harm them. But due to the fact the AI doesn't want peace. He will be on the look out for any groupings that my attack him.

BASTON SEEN MAKING A LONELY PILGRIMAGE
The young warrior was briefly seen heading for the frozen peaks in the north in an isolated pilgrimage to the north.
Ever since the failed coup in the capital he has doubted the spirits and the guidance they once so strongly gave to him. In this pilgrimage he is hoping it will make or break his life. If the spirits are with him he will return, if not... only history may remember him... if at all.
He has heard the distant voices of other leaders and this has recently hardened his resolve in the frozen lands.
***
I am working damn hard to get this sorted!

Turn 48 to Demos.
The Australian Government is outraged that yet another espionage attempt was made against her. This violation of national sovereignty will not go unpunished and though the vigilance of our security forces prevented this attack from being successful we were unable to apprehend the cuplprit. The prime suspect must be 'Beast of Rome' Shavlor but the geographic location of the so nearly desecrated City of Melbourne leaves nobody free from suspicion.
Make no mistake we will find out the identity of the perpetrator of this vile act and when we do they will find that the Australians are pioneers in the art of making 'snuff movies' on a national scale.

Mighty Jon,
Is it true that once again your cities are under attack by covert minions? Who dares attack you now? I believe that you have a peace treaty with the Romans, and alliances with the Assyrians and us Welsh? Could it be the Native Americans? Maybe the silent Mayans?

Australian Foreign Office Statement.
The Australian Government wishes to make clear that no direct accusations of culpability in this heinous crime have been made. Satan's Spawn in Rome must remain the most likely to have stooped so low but, though we know 'The Beast' to be a creature without honour, without proof we cannot fairly decide guilt or innocence.
Be assured that we will discover the identity of the perpetrator of this disgusting act and that their punishment will be severe indeed.
Australia would make it known that whilst she cannot exclude any from suspicion she makes no allegations against her friends and certainly not the Mayan people who we, as yet, have not met directly.
Guilt lies somewhere and it shall be uncovered. Australia will not be desecrated!

Turn 49 ==> Shavlor
A large continent campaign to the continent of Nova Assyria was launched today. Cities are expected in 5 turns time.
Answering questions concerning New Assyria the foreign minister of trade said that knowledge (can be seen just south and east of Assyria) of the small continent is centuries old but it was believed to merely dessert and mountains, this has recently been proven wrong. He went on to say that if any other Civilization attempts to found there, it will mean immediate removal of their colonies.

Could it be the Native Americans who wage a covert war with the Australians? All other nations have denied responsibility.

It is a possibility is it not? Especially now that the stable head of state, Baston, has been exiled for his bid for power.
Perhaps the reinstatement of the true Native American head of State would bring an end to this foul play.

None yet -- i suspect i will have to re-install CTP.
Sophanthro -- i will resend the turn that you sent me some time ago to see if you can read it under the new installtion.
However i will have to reinstall dutcheese (i am sure this is the culprit) because i am playing in 4 games using this mod.
BASTON VOWS RETURN
The young chief has been spotted in outlying tribes amassing new support for the final offensive. He has become increasingly pale and aged after the failure of the coup all those years ago. Shamans who have spoken to him have found him to be much less optimistic than he was and now seems concerned at a second failure. The shamans believe his health will deteriorate to a critical level should he fail again.

Yet another outrage!!!
This time the fair City of Canberra was subjected to an undercover attack, though once again our loyal citizens were watchful and security maintained!
Sadly the culprit still remains unidentified but this WILL change. Whilst the primitives of the North could have been responsible for the atrocity against Melbourne they must be discounted as suspects for this latest violation of Australia's sovereignty.
Beast of Rome, let it be known that I have ordered my Generals to raise the state of readniness of our troops. Our border patrols have been strengthened and should we gain the evidence needed to prove your guilt you will face WAR!!!
To ALL other nations. Though 'Satan's Spawn' in Rome is the most likely guilty party, indeed whose very existance is an affront to civilised man, as we cannot be certain no units of any nation will be permitted to enter our lands without prior notice. Any detected will not be expelled but destroyed and any covert unit encountered, even outside our borders, will be shot on sight.
These crimes will cease or blood will flow!

Ok, what's going on here? Jon can you resend the gamefile please, my computer doesn't like the one I've presently got.
980424-JRL-015
The size of the save game file is incorrect.
Does this mean anything to you guys? I've tried the previous turn and that works fine, as does the turn before that. Perhaps it got corrupted in transit.
Anyhow, please resend the gamefile and I'll give it another shot.
