ZWK - Relived!

[Duke of Marlbrough]

Sorry, I'm having troubles with LazyCiv3. I didn't even lose a city that I can tell, but all the production is screwed up.

Let me make sure I got it right...

I played my turn, ctrl+n, opened LazyCiv, saved game, quit game.
New turn is downloaded, unzip it, load game, at the point where I pick the gender, I start LazyCiv again, and go into the game.

Sould be it, correct?

Sorry, I've used LazyCiv 2 before, but only messed around with 3 a little before I stopped my PBEM games.

I also tried loading my saved game from last turn (with correct production) opening Lazy Civ, pressing 'copy', then opening the new save and pressing paste. Nothing.

I also sent a message to Xin Yu and see if he can help.

Don't even bother with that, just use the copy and paste feature. It's a lot less complicated and there are less chances of a mistake. Just load up your old savegame, start up lazyciv, hit 'copy', and close the game*. Then, when you load up the savegame of the person before you, go to the
'select gender' window, and hit 'paste'. When your turn is loaded, your productions are fixed like magic. Close Lazyciv anytime during your turn.

* - VERY IMPORTANT: do not close CivII altogether and do not close Lazyciv.

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

I've tried that also. It didn't fix it.

I'll try again when I get home from work.

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

Ok, after trying the copy/paste 10 or 15 more times, it finally worked. No idea what I did different from the other 20 times I tired it to finally make it go, but.... it's done.

Finally some action....

Istanbul is barely emptied and taken. We are watching the Soviets Capital Ship in vain. We can do nothing about it since we have no real units that can hurt it.

That's it. It'll be awhile before I can do much of anything else.....

Brave spitfire squadron inflicts heavy damage on Italian Battleship!!

A spitfire squadron attacked an Italian battleship with aircover in the meditteranean, and succeeded in heavily damaging the ship.

I can't believe this, but I put it in the yellow. That is just pure luck...

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

Another round of getting LazyCiv to work, only took me 5 tries or so this time.

Hmmm, that's my only capital ship, maybe I should try to keep it alive , huh?

More action in Turkey....

Ankara captured.
A fighter that was supporting the attack on Ankara found an airborne fighter along the way and barely survived the attack.

Units are told to stay away from the shore to avoid the Soviets Capital Ship we still can't touch.

My plan to piss off the Independants works as the militia that was fortified next to Marseilles attacked the city and died (unless my friend the Axis took care of him for me? ).

Tobruk emptied and knocked down to size 1. If I only had one more unit.... My kingdom for a horse.

Lots of Militia moving around, just for something to do.....

* Tallinn captured
* Kristiansand captured
* Stavanger captured

Oh say can you see...

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

We had a couple surprising things happen.....

First, we didn't need to use Lazy Civ

Second, A fighter scouting ahead in the Med spots a fighter stacked with another unit and waits for further orders. In the mean time, our invasion force captures Tobruk. The stack in the Med disappears! We can only assume they were supported by the city of Tobruk and were lost when the city fell.

The Soviet Capital Ship has finally been dealt with.

Crap, I didn't realize that. I lost an entire capitol ship.

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

The fighter disappeared too....?
