While playing Civ4 BTS in multiplayer pbem mode, we've played several games that have all ended in this very frustrating situation:

Player 1 will be sent a file which reads as xxx_to_Player1.xxx

When it is opened it asks for Player 2's password. When that password is opened, it shows the map for Player 2 and says the game has been paused by Player 2. Nothing more can be done from this point.

We've tried going back a couple of turns to see if this would fix it to no avail. Once this glitch strikes, it seems to be unfixable.

we're on Civ version 319 and it has failed on games running between 2 PCs and between a mac and a PC...

Is there a way to remedy this? Is there something we're doing incorrectly?

The turn number it dies on is seemingly random, 27, 54, 157 ... frustratingly late in the games..

Thanks,

Bob
