Battle result discrepancy?

Blofeld · #1 November 14th, 2006, 09:39 PM

I had 2 battles in MP with results differing from battle replays.
In 1 battle a couple of my commanders routed, though battle replay showed no such thing. On of the routers who subsequently died was a fairy queen which left me not amused.
In the other battle a couple of squads routed with not a sign of it in battle replay.
My sys is Win98, the host sys is WinXP.
Has the old Dom2 bug reemerged?
Can anyone confirm this?

Are you using a different version (3.0 vs. 3.01) than the host?

Well being flyers you may not have noticed but i cant think of anything else.

Seeing as the original bug in dom2 was tracked down to faulty code (unspecified order of evaluation, resolved differently by different compilers), I'd say the devs would be unlikely to reintroduce it. But replaying on a different version than the host might be an explanation.

Yep, after my nagging it turned out that host machine hasn't been patched. Thanks for suggesting the reason and sorry for the fuss.
