Massive Humans vs Humans Game/Lets Player Tracker

Well that says some more as to what's taking place. The crash point is the same with every attempt to change the password.

Actually... this is interesting. I have a debug assert coming up so this is different. I've gotta take a deeper look but from what I'm seeing, I'm guessing that I may just have been overly sweeping with resetting all passwords. I may be able to fix this by only having the password setting routine you went through only reset the next player's password rather than all of them.

Stay tuned... I will either have you repeat the process with a new dll or I might be able to fix this here.

 

[Thunderbrd]

Ok, the debugger strongly supports my suspicion. Try doing the same but with this dll. This time, you'll only be setting the password for the next player.

 

[MagnusIlluminus]

Just tried again, same steps, same results. Well, I used a different new password, but that should make no difference as the save doesn't load to the point of asking for it. Here is the current save going into Totila's turn.

 

[Thunderbrd]

Ok. Maybe the debugger will tell me more this time.

EDIT: I... I'm at a loss today. I may eventually find a solution but it seems there is a 'security' issue with what we're trying to do... tipping off the exe somehow here.

I hate to say it bit perhaps this game should be retired.

The other MP game is still going so its not like its all for nothing. Also many of us in this one are also playing in the other game.

 

[Thunderbrd]

I have a few considerations left. I'm thinking I may be overlooking something I need to do here involving being very specific as to which players are getting their passwords reset. But I'll work on it over the Christmas weekend here.

Vokarya and Praetyre are the ones that would be left out in the cold.

It is sad that Spirictum did us this way. And I hope he is actually well. But in hindsight passwording each player was a bad idea for the games overall longevity.

Personally I feel much more attached to this game than the other one.

Is that because you are in 1st place?

I hope we can continue.

That might help! The other game is interesting too in its own right though as I had a much more challenging starting location there. As such they provide an interesting contrast (and I'd hate to have to drop either) - one with a good start the other with a difficult one.

 

[JosEPh_II]

I understand that. This games start, that meganix had and I swapped to, is most definitely a harder challenge. Just recently found Hydro's Empire and have been sinking his kayaks and canoes to keep him off my shore. And being in Last place puts the heat on!

Hello everyone, I don't have much time to read everything that has happened until now. I'm currently away from my city and my pc has been broken for a very long time, and I couldn't fix it until I had to go away see my family on christmas.

I'll be back on the 4th of January and then I'll have time to get my pc fixed.

It was a mix of broken pc, last days of duties on college and my travel which started yesterday. My teachers decided to get us a lot of stuff to do on the last days of college. It only ended 1 day before Christmas, and then I traveled on the next day early in the morning).

Here where I am I finally got access to the internet and then I could get in touch with you guys.

I'm really sorry for what have happened, and if you dropped me or are planning to do so, I'll feel sad for this game, but I understand. If you can wait for me until the 4th of January, then I'll gladly do my turn ASAP when I get back home (I hope I can get my pc fixed on that day or at most on the following one).

Once again I'm really sorry, and I haven't read anything besides Joseph's PM to me, so I'm sorry if you already told me something I didn't consider on my post here.

So, merry christmas everyone (a little late) and a great New Year (because I believe I won't have internet on the following days).

 

[Thunderbrd]

Hmm... well. I suppose the easiest thing to do from here is wait. I'm not so impatient as to have to force it if he'll be back mid-jan. And I'm not sure I'm going to be able to figure out how anyhow.

 

[Koshling]

4th of Jan is fine. Better to wait and have a committed player continue than to have to turn a civ over to the AI anyway

 

[JosEPh_II]

Hello Spirictum?! Come in Spirictum!?

JosEPh

 

[Spirictum]

I'm back guys. I only got home late at night yesterday, so I couldn't come here.

I'll do my turn now


PS.: As soon as I came back my gf came here and she is staying for 10 days, so until the 14th of January I won't be able to read everything that has been going on, but I'll be checking for when my turns are required, so the game won't be delayed by me anymore. After that I'll catch up with everything that has happened here in the forum.

If anything important happens, please PM me. I'll read my PMs just in case

 

[MagnusIlluminus]

So, have you done your turn yet? It's been about 5 hours since you posted. Yes, I'm impatient.

 

[Spirictum]

Sorry for that again, I was doing my turn when I had to stop to do other stuff.

I have just done my turn now but when I tried to save the game it failed to compress the savegame. I have no idea what that menas, it has never happened to me before. I'll try again now by reloading the game and doing the turn again, but if I fail I'll have to wait until tomorrow. If you guys know anything about it please post it here so I may do something about it.

 

[Spirictum]

By reloading the game everything went fine. I have no idea what has happened

So my turn is finally done, Hydro is up

 

[Hydromancerx]

It might be. The one under the C2C MP\Save+TurnList\US MP game2 saves folder in the SVN is most likely different than the one you are currently using in your mod folder copy. Replace the one in your MP mod folder with that one in the SVN under the US MP game2 folder and see if it fixes the storms issue when you load the game.

I tried this, but it still did not check off "No Storms" how do I fix this? I copied over all the files in the "C2C MP\Save+TurnList\US MP game2 saves folder" and then put it in the ".../Beyond the Sword/Mods/C2C MP/UserSettings folder"

Is this not correct? If not where should I be putting the files?
