cillmhor -> Error in PBEM replay (8/25/2009 10:51:41 AM)

Myself and another player both have the Matrix version of the BG games, and we have been trying to PBEM a Nappy scenario. However, each time we try to, I get a replay error where the first file I get replays the first couple of moves before reporting an error and reverting to remote control.

When I send the first file, my opponent can open it and make his first move, but then when I try to play the replay the above happens. This has happened with two separate scenarios. And I sent the file to another player who had the same problem when trying to open the replay, so it's not just my PC.

If we both have the Matrix bundle, what is the problem?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

I have played a few PBEM (not sure if they're against Matrix opponents) and have had no problems like the ones you describe. But I have had problems playing the AI when de-selecting the "Video Effects" option. I would try to toggle this and maybe the "Blink Hotspot" option. I've played in "2D Normal View", maybe try that setting?

There's definitely some bugs in the Matrix .01 version, but I doubt that anyone will fix them. One huge bug is the game manual that has not been updated to reflect the game. There are many incorrect statements about fire factors and modifiers in melee.

Are you zipping the .bte-file when e-mailing it? Could the attached file have been corrupted in e-mail transfer? Have you tried it within a single PC (PBEM yourself)?
