Default Re: PBW status

I think there is something wrong. I am trying to access PBW at work and it won't accept the password I have had for the last 5 years. I asked for the password and it is right, but no matter how many times I try it won't accept it.

edit:whatever it was, it's normal now.

I've turned automatic turn processing back on. Turns should process normally again.

Seems to be unavailable, though. Just uploaded a turn about 15 mins ago.

And yet, after trying several times, it works AFTER I post here... LOL.

We still have occasional outages, but the script brings the site back up within a few minutes.

I have added support for SE5 ver 1.25, including support for Balance mod ver 1.03, Golden Eclipse Mod ver 1.0 Beta, and Gritty Galaxy Public Mod beta. I haven't tested the Golden Eclipse and Gritty mods to verify they work with ver 1.25, these are the same versions of the mods that were available with 1.20.

Uprgading an exsisting stock games from 1.20 to 1.25 should work fine. There may be issues with mod games, consult the mod creator for more specific information in that regard.

There is still no way currently to upgrade a game on PBW from an older to a more recent version of a mod. For SE5 there is only one version of the mod pn PBW per version of SE5. In Se5 there is still no way to change the game type folder name being used in the game, so the only way to change the mod for a game is to change the files in the game type folder. Doing so on PBW will change the files for every game usign that mod. If you are playing an existing game of 1.20 with balance mod ver 1.01 and want to upgrade it to 1.25 you will have to upgrade to 1.25 with balance mod 1.03. There are reports that this is a problem. If you want to upgrade to 1.25 but remain on 1.01 of the mod you'll have to have the game owner run the turns offline.

Yep, looks like it. Might have lost power for a bit, we've had high winds here today. I'll have to check it out when I get home.
