Want an easy way to play Civ V online? Say hello to Giant Multiplayer Robot! (GMR)

The Fall of Rome saved game seems to be corrupted not sure if a revert will fix it but it crashes my civ to desktop on load every time.

Sorry Islandia, I just downloaded your turn from the website and it loaded up in CiV successfully on my machine. Perhaps EEE_Boy reverted the turn?

We seem to be having several cases in the last week where submitted turns get corrupted somehow on their way to GMR. It's likely due to the major changes we made last week in the desktop client and how it communicates to our server. I will investigate further and get this all smoothed out. Thanks for your continued patience and support

I just passing by to thanks the devs because we are able to play multiple games(turns) WITHOUT shuting down the game for each of these turns

I save a lot of time.

Yes, this is awesome! But you actually need to thank Firaxis/2K since they're the ones that added the "Main Menu" button on the hotseat dialog in their latest patch to CiV. Maybe they do know about us and want to make our lives easier

Absolutely! Our YouTube Video (while a little dated) gives the best instruction for setting up a game and getting started with GMR. Let us know if you have any questions!

Thanks for the reply (and info).

Hi Mel!

Good news: DL / submitting turns via the app seems fine now, thanks!

Bad news: turn in the Big Gamble is causing a ctd. I haven't tried reverting as it seems to fit the recent pattern of corrupted saves. Can you have a look?

Did I see a little civ patch or something today? Steam did some civ updating I think.

Hi Mel I was wondering if you would consider adding tapatalk to the GMR forums or if it is even possible. Here is a link for their FAQs:

Problem in this game: http://multiplayerrobot.com/Game/Details/671

I can play mu turn fine, but I cannot finish my turn. As soon as I press *end turn*, the game slow down to a screeching halt and I get the classic *Windows had to close this program*.

Was able to play my other turns in other games fine tough.

Hey Onan, I was able to DL and load your turn in Big Gamble without a CtD. There does seem to be more instances of CtDs lately on GMR, however I have so far been unable to track down the root cause.

If it still won't load for you go ahead and revert. Then let me know if it works after that.

Yep, we'll definitely keep tapatalk in mind when setting up our forums. And your help would be invaluable for testing!

Downloaded via app, ctd. Tried website instead, ctd. Reverting now. I'll just do one player for now, since it's such a big game.

Mel I get it! I haven't been taking my turns diligently. But did you have to remind me so forcefully?

Tough love, bro. Sometimes forceful and honest is the best way to get the message across!

Oh wow! It looks like our email service had a little too much turkey yesterday or something! How many games do those emails represent?

Problem in this game:
http://multiplayerrobot.com/Game/Details/671

I can load the game and play my turn without problem, but the game crash whenever I try to process the turn. Since I cannot finish my turn, I cant upload the game to the next player.

Please help, this game is going pretty well(not for me of of course lol) and I would hate to see the save corrupted.

I got error message at the end of the submission. Revert the turn may solve the problem. I think you are the host.

 

[m4stermel]

Yes, until I get this problem figured out you're just going to have to revert. Sorry guys.

 

[Onan]

If reverting works, it's the least we can do to help out.
