Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

Thank you gentlemen! Both issues have been sorted out now.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

It seems that the second issue has not been sorted out after all.

I'm player one, and the files I send are working properly: I can open them, and they ask for the other player's password as normal.

The issue is that the game is creating a third (.new) file in his PBEM folder (image attached), and he can´t open the files (Save game failed to load !!).

He's using Win10 (v13-DL) with the game installed to C:\Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\winSPWW2. I'm using v13-CD.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

The .new file is nothing to do with us.

Which files are you sending? - should only be the .cmt and .dat files for the slot. If you are sending the pbemregistry - error - toasted!.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

I'm sending the proper files (.cmt & .dat) which work on my end. As I mentioned, his system is creating the .new file, and it's not allowing him to load the game.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

Then the problem must be on his system, perhaps anti-virus?

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

That's the first thing I asked him, but he swears that's not the problem. Perhaps he should double-check it.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

Something at his end seems to be causing the problem, and anti-virus is often the cause of problems. The .new file is also suspicious of some sort of problem there too.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

He's using AVG antivirus. Does that ring any bell? He tried disabling it with no apparent effect.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

No idea about AVG.

Re: PBEM Fail Problem
 

Maybe this will help explain it. That file is NOT being generated by the game. And NO I have no idea what G-Suite does but it's obviously on his machine
