View Full Version : Play-by-Email!
Unleash Chaos Feb 25, 2007, 02:59 PM I don't no how to "Play-by-E-mail" without individually sending each save to the next player. It said something about setting my email and smtp in the game to send the saves from the game?
Thanks,
Chaos

If you could, that'd be extremely helpful - the popular opinion is that Gmail doesn't work, and I know several players sending "manually" via Gmail now (including me).

do you have an outlook express e-mail or the such like, try using that if you cant get hotmail to work :)
Lord Parkin Mar 07, 2007, 08:53 PM If you could, that'd be extremely helpful - the popular opinion is that Gmail doesn't work, and I know several players sending "manually" via Gmail now (including me).I started a thread (http://www.strategamer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=784) at Strategamer asking this same question (there are a few players at that site who I'm sure have used Gmail to autosend saves). So hopefully the answer might crop up there, if it does I'll repost it here. :)
