Default Revert to 3.08?

Since it seems more or less impossible to play this game with 3.10, I suggest that we revert to 3.08 and stay with it for this game. AFAIK it's enough to only keep and use the old binary, the other files can come from 3.10. I'll test this.

lch - this is the behavior I've generally seen with this overflow issue.

Keeping the 3.08 binary should work. Do we need to revert to the old version of the mod again ?

I'm a bit overextended and evidently I just staled, so I'm going AI.

It was fun, all.

No, you didn't, I didn't find time to rehost the turn with the 3.08 version. And yes, we'd have to use the 3.08 binary with the old(!) mod, not the corrected one for 3.10, of course.

I'll rehost turn 54 of this game with a 3.08 version now.

Ok, so I copy the whole dom3.10 folder to another one, then transfer which 3.08 binary file? (what the heck is a binary file?).

If I stale again guys just set me AI or ask me for my password if somebody wants to take over. I'll explain later if I can.

The .exe is the binary.

Make a copy of the 3.08 executable, leave it in the same folder, and use that to play 3.08 games.

I tried it and it says my dom version is too old. Has the game been rehosted using 3.08?

The game still seems to be using 3.1.

I'm not sure what is going on but don't have a copy of the old version of the mod anyway.

I'm in a fix and didn't rehost yet. Will do so now.
