Graeme's Karan game: "Turn file is corupted"???

[Maltrease]

I'm having the same problem, but I am still running 2.12.

I went to peak at the fresh turn while I was at work and got the same error.

Duh!

That's probably why the file was corrupted. Everybody need to upgrade at the same time, otherwise the game crashes.

No, AFAICT the server was not updated to 2.13. At least I am also runing 2.12, like Mal, and I haven't heard anything from Sheap regarding server's upgrade.


The strange thing is that I have no trouble connecting to the server (at least I was able to download new turn this afternoon)

It was never a problem having a newer Version then the server. I played 3-4 turns on another server which runs 2.12 too. Only the wrong displayed battle results is a problem.

[Stormbinder]

Well, that's the only reason I could think about. If you have other possible explanation I would be very intrested to hear it.


BTW me and Truper had no trouble connecting and downloading new turn, and the turn appered to be ok (both your and Mal's forces were active). Don't know about Abyssia and C'tis - can you guys connect, or you are also experiencing troubles?

The important question though is what should we do now?

[Stormbinder]

Ok, one temporarely solution that I can think about is for those players who for some reason are unable to connect this turn, ask somebody who can connect (some neutral party, or one of our players, up to you) do download the turn for you and send the file to you. As I said, the turn seem to be ok, as far as I can tell, all your armies are moving, etc.

If it was just one wierd glitch, perhaps it'll dissapear next turn. But I would still reccomend to downgrade it to 2.12, just in case - since this is what Sheap's server is runing, and I don't know of any other irregularities in our game.

[Maltrease]

I've downloaded the turn file just fine. I've tried deleting it and connecting again but I get the same results.

I also tried upgrading to Version 2.13 to see if that fixed the problem but it did not.

As soon as you try to play the turn you get the invalid message.

[calmon]

Maybe we had a buggy fight.

I didn't hear about that before but it seems we are the only players with problems opening the turnfile.

sheap should stop the server. If i can find the time i'll write something to illwinter. Maybe they could check the turns.
