Problems with walkthru files?

[ceremony]

Originally posted by ceremony:
One user got an error that the game cannot open ""./maps/aran.tga". This is odd because I generated the walkthru using the demo and the aran.tga map is clearly installed in the /maps directory.

Another user said the game gave him this error msg: "Dominion Version is too old, Get an update at www.illwinter.com, myVersion202 fileVersion538976458 nation-1" but he had just downloaded the demo today (11/19)

Both of these problems were solved. The first one was because the user for some reason had the program split over two directories: one in the /Program Files/dom2demo folder and one in the /Games folder. So that was easy to fix.

The second one was due to a corrupted file, which probably happened on download. (I have found that it is easy to corrupt a file so that the game rejects it - once I tried renaming a turn file that had been attached in an email to its proper name because Eudora had appended a character to the name, and this caused a crash. I had to first save the file as the email program wanted me to, and then manually rename it once it had been saved.)

Anyway, I reposted the walkthrough files as one .zip file, which should hopefully work better.

If you have any suggestions, comments, or corrections about the walkthrough, please email me. I hope to add more information to it and perhaps have a longer section on strategy.
