Crash while loading multiplayer turn - 11/9/2021 7:39:52 PM

Hi,

i started a new server game (1941 GC no early end).
My opponent has finished the first turn. When i try to load the turn, the game crashes. The crash takes place in the " oading game victory" sequence.

Im using the newest beta. Reinstalling WitE2 does not help. Normal saves (AI games) are still working. The problem seems to be connected to the server.

Kind regards

quantas

Is this your game with carlkay? I downloaded the save and it said it was still the German turn. I see the game was started with 1.02.02, which is a test version. Did Carl give you that version (it's ok if he did as we're ok with test versions going out to non-testers, especially when they are in PBEM games)? Is he saying that the game has advanced to your side?

Thanks for the info Joel,

yes, it is the game with carlkay. Im using the public beta 1.02.01.
I got the email from the server, that the turn 1 is finished. I will ask carlkay, if he has finished the turn.

I logged onto the server and it will not let me download the game because it is not my turn!

The fact that 1.02.02 has changes to the victory rules in the campaign, and the fact that you are using 1.02.01 while the game was started in 1.02.01 makes me think there may be some incompatibility. Either that, or there is a problem with the 1.02.02 changes and victory.

Carl, I created and MP game using 1.02.02 with the password: test Can you please accept this challenge and I will end the turn so you can see if you can access it ok.

quantas, if this works for us I could send you the 1.02.02 exe for you to try. The oddity though is that when downloaded the save from the server, it looks to be in the German turn. I don't see how this is possible given it sent an email message that the turn was finished.

Joel - I have accepted the challenge and created another one for you to accept in 1.02.02_Beta.

quantus - I have setup a new installation of 1.02.01_Beta from the Slitherene server. If you send me another startup challenge we can start playing!

Ok, I finished the turn. See if you can download it. When you made your first turn in the problematic game, do you remember it advancing to the Soviet logistics phase before it saved off the file?

Actions taken on the server Joel. Everything loaded okay for the game where you are the Germans.

I've confirmed with out game that using 1.02.01 to load a 1.02.02 game will not work and results in a crash. I've sent quantas a copy of 1.02.02.
