Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
.......so lets make sure we are all on the same page by answering one simple question
Were those saves made from a PBEM game that had been patched to the latest version AND had been started AFTER that patch had been applied ?

YES
I've also done a surface test and defrag. No difference either. Hope this clarifies my earlier lousy description.
Thanks Bob

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
It sounds like a corrupted save game file but we'll look into it. If anyone else has seen this happen since the patch don't be shy, let us know

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
I have seen ghost crews, but only after Bob mentioned seeing them in his army. Still, what's important is that I have.
We are talking about long large campaigns.

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
I don't know how many games he plays, but I am in one of his yes and he is one of mine (out of 3 current).
He first noticed the problem and after a turn or two (perhaps it was also right after the end of a battle of the campaign, I don't remember) ghost crews appeared in my army too.

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
It's not surprising two players would see similar problems if the save game file has been corrupted. So the question that needs an answer is has this problem surfaced in any other game you have played with anyone BUT Bob ?

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
Yes, but I am not sure if it is only after it first surfaced with the game with Bob or not. I think later, but I can't be 100% certain.

Re: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM
The problem surfaced with another on going PBEM game.
I attach save files sent to me at the end of a battle of an on going campaign. I am player 1, Greece. I am not sure if my opponent has ghost crews or not, I am going to ask him when I send him the files.
I noticed that they appear in the purchasing screens and during deployment and they appear to count towards my core limit, but in the screen where I can upgrade/repair units they do not appear so I can't actually "upgrade" them to units to save them. If I try to delete them, then I lose the whole platoon they appear attached to, for example from a company of MBTs of 3-4 platoons, they appear right under one of the platoons and if I try to delete them then I delete the MBTs too.
