Default Re: How to change manually PBEM slot?

You could try to rename the savefiles, i.e. files called for instance SpEml001.* to SpEml002 and so on.

I've done this many times in SPWAW to change the slot manually and it works, but of course MBT might work differently.

The PBEMRegistry.dat file might be an index of savegames and could cause corruption if renaming files. Im curious, anyone know what it's for?

Stian
You cannot rename PBEM games to different slots. You cannot "share" a pbem slot between 2 games either by swapping save games for that slot in and out. Any of the above will corrupt the PBEM security data.

You need to agree the slot to use between players before starting your PBEM game as once the game is started by player 1 in slot X, it is only playable in slot X.

Cheers
