Hey guys, sorry about the problems. After some testing, we've determined that these new bugs are for all hotseat games, not just GMR ones. As far as I can tell, it seems that pre-patch save files like to skip players when you click continue post-patch. Plus, since it skipped some people, it wont...

I can confirm both of these problems with hot seat. For the first one, it's super confusing. The Host Game screen is all kinds of messed up, with some weird spacing. To start a game, you have to click the Ready check by Player 1. Also, once you're in-game, the screen that starts a player's turn...

Alright, it looks like the root cause is that auto mod loading from the main menu only works for one mod. I'll have to add the compatibility mode for any time you want to use more than one. Thanks for helping us find this!

I've personally tested InfoAddict before, and I know that one works. I'll do some more investigation into the root cause of the problems.

We'll be able to get a workaround for mods that have trouble with GMR much sooner and easier than we could do a list of compatible mods, since making a list would require manually testing all mods on Steam workshop. As for the Scenario CCTP game, I joined and left just to see if it worked...

Okay, so I was able to join the scenario game just fine. I would suggest that banman perhaps try a different browser? As for GMR mod games, they are not loaded through the Mod menu of Civ V. Civilization will attempt to load any required mods regardless of where you load the save file from...

We can't seem to reproduce the problem with joining scenario games. What's the URL to the specific GMR scenario game that's having problems? As for a mod save crashing to desktop, it could be that a mod has some sort of problem with GMR's mod support. The CCTP mod may have problems because of...

In Scenario GMR games, players replace AI players when they join the game by selecting the civ they want to play as. We can't have open slots because the save file has a set number of players in it that we can't change.

Done Fixed as well. We forgot to reset the skip count on that player slot, so you inherited the count from before. You're back to 0 now!

I think I've got it fixed. Go ahead and redownload the save and let us know if it works!

A defeated player should surrender on GMR. Unfortunately, there is no way for us to tell from the save file when someone has been defeated in game or if somebody has won.

Hmm, quite odd. I've got normal Firefox with no addons and no dice. Oh well, as long as it works for everyone else.

Yes, this is correct. The reason you get logged out is because steamcommunity.com has their cookie (login data) stored such that it deletes when you close your browser. I have no clue why they don't include the remember me checkbox for Firefox, but unfortunately, it's out of our control. I'll be...

Hey everyone! Thought I'd share a quick tip we shared to our Facebook/Twitter: Login at the official Steam Community website and check "Remember me on this computer." Now, when you login at Giant Multiplayer Robot, all you have to do is push a "Login" button to verify your login rather than...

Sorry CivDecimation - at this time we don't have a Mac client. On a Mac, you'll need to download and submit your turns via the GMR website. You'll find the download and submit options in the details page of any game it's your turn in.

Can we get the name of your Steam nickname (not username) to look into this? It appears that player surrendered. The only condition in which a player is kicked is when they have been skipped a certain number of times by the turn timer. In this case, the Iroquois had not been skipped. Also, GMR...

For those having trouble with the app, try closing and re-opening it. You should get an update posted recently.

Thanks for reporting this! We've actually had this happen a few times where a turn is submitted more than once. I've added some extra protection to keep this from happening.

Alright everyone, big update today. Mod support! Giant Multiplayer Robot now supports mods and scenarios. This applies both to the scenarios/mods that come with Civ V and its DLC and mods you get on Steam Workshop. We've divided mod games into three categories when you create a game: a Basic...

Thanks for reporting this Slvynn! There was a bug with existing comments under our new comment tag system. The problem should be resolved now. And unfortunately, we don't have any other "support us" methods than PayPal at the moment. :( I can consult with Mel and see what we can do though.
