Ok, we're back in business since Larz has agreed to take on leadership of Caelum.

Edit: I've added another 24 hours to the clock so he has a chance to familiarize himself with the position.

Hi,

Just wanted to say I'm really sorry for dropping away like that. My laptop got drowned in beer, but I should have let you know I couldn't play. Sorry. And gl Lars.

My turn file is 'corrupted'?
Tried getting a resent file but its still not working...

Re: Legends - EA, no diplo, CBM 1.92, limited magic
 

I found a few threads on this (link, link and link) but nothing definitive.

Maybe try deleting the savegame folder and then recreate it and download the turn again, try disabling all mods and quitting the game and then relaunching and trying to open the turn, and try resending the turn a couple more times, and maybe we'll switch to a different email address as well.

If none of that works then the only two options are to rollback or for you to stale (whomever you're at war with shouldn't take advantage of the stale and there should be essentially a one turn ceasefire) and hope one of those approaches fixes the problem. The first of those links indicated a rollback didn't solve the problem so I don't know if that will actually work (rollbacks do involve some risk since if people don't delete all their old files you can get all kinds of problems).

Do you have another computer on which you can play Dominions3? If so, try and see if the problem is duplicated there. If you do not, try renaming the directories that your Dominions3 application files (and savedgame files if it is different) are in and re-install.

Nothing has worked so far; I've tried loading up from a fresh install on another computer. Was there some update and I missed the memo..?

Its the only game I'm playing so it can't be the influence of a different game either. First time I've had this problem, other than the occasional 'Nagot git fel' crash. But this one I can't even load up the save game.

Re: Legends - EA, no diplo, CBM 1.92, limited magic
 

Ok, let's try one other thing. Delete the game mod from your mods folder, make sure all mods are inactive, quit the game and download the game mod again. If that doesn't work then the next question is how do you feel about a rollback vs. a stale? If you'd like the rollback I'll need to get feedback from the other players. If you're ok with a stale then I'll message everyone asking them to basically ignore you this turn and not attack any of your provinces.

Ok, shard has agreed to stale and hopefully next turn his, and everyone else's, turns will be ok. I just sent a message through the server but want to repeat here that anyone at war with Lanka should not launch attacks on them this turn since he can't respond. I will wait another 24 hours before hosting in case anyone needs to cancel attack orders.

Re: Legends - EA, no diplo, CBM 1.92, limited magic
 

The game has (finally) hosted. Thanks everyone for your patience and especially thanks to shard for being willing to take a stale. Now I just really hope that you can open this turn file and it isn't corrupt...

Re: Legends - EA, no diplo, CBM 1.92, limited magic
 

Just back from travelling again; I have managed to open the file ok.

However being deprived of knowing what happened last turn is a major blow; I am still trying to run the previous turn file since there were some pretty vital battles, sieges and troop movements where the intel will have a bearing on the rest of my game (youtube video anyone?)
