It thinks that player 1 has already played the turn. that is what the message says.

Are you player 1 or player 2?.

if you are player 2 - player 1 has probably sent you the wrong files. You should not be getting a player 1 message.

If you are player 1 - did you unzip the files that player 2 sent to the wrong folder perhaps, and so be trying to play your (already completed) last turn?.

Another possibility is that your opponent has exited via the "save and continue" button and NOT the "end turn" button, and has sent you the saved current turn he has yet to complete with the "end game" button.

Either way - you most likely have your turns out of synch somehow, and you will need to resolve which of you either sent the wrong files, or unzipped to the wrong folder, or (possibly) sent an unfinished in-progress turn to the other person.

Cheers
Andy
