Out of sync

Just out of curiosity, anyone else getting OOS errors?

Me and my two mates had them constantly! We played up to five new games and each of them lasted thirty minutes before we couldn't play them. Each time the OOS happened, one of us would save and re-host but then the OOS would happen again just as we entered the game!

That makes no sense! How can the game OOS right after it's started when everyone's got the same bloody file?

Tried playing over Gayspy (worst host ever, really) and tried over "LAN" (being hamachi). Every time our games are rendered unplayable.

We haven't actually played FfH since installing FF, but it looks like we might have to go back to it And FF had so many nice features I liked.

Any ideas? Otherwise just let this thread die

Who were you guys playing as, for civilizations, and do you have OOS logs in your Beyond the Sword directory?

I'm sorta the unofficial "stop making this thing OOS" tester/fanboy since I retired from actually modding. My friends and I just don't sit down to MP game as much as I'd like.

These the ones?

As you can see, in one game alone we had OOSs constantly. I think I was the Illians in that game.

The other games we tried (at least 5 more), my two friends were random and I was either Illians or Daaracat (think that's his name).

Of course, now that I see all the textlogs say DeDBiGHeD in them, he might be the cause of it... so I'll try and get him to reinstall FF and FfH.

Allright, well, all this proves is, it isn't me. The OOS logger is broken

maybe you should post this in the OOS thread to make sure it gets read asap. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=328744

In the OOSLogger.py file, try changing:

pFile.write(" Civilizations: %s \n" % (pPlayer.getCivilizationDescription()))

to

pFile.write(" Civilizations: %s \n" % (pPlayer.getCivilizationDescriptionKey()))

or

pFile.write(" Civilizations: %s \n" % (pPlayer.getCivilizationDescription(0)))


On line 64. See if that lets you get a full log. If not, just remove that line completely, I'll figure out how to have it work properly later.

Okay thanks! Will look into all suggestions =)

My friend and I are on turn 269 with nary a peep, huge game, 18civs. Let you know how it continues when we pick it back up from there.
