  • PBEM passwords and email settings

    Can anyone direct me to where I can find information on how to set passwords and email setings in a PBEM game? I can't find it on any of the menu options anywhere.
    I keep a record of all my civ games here.

    Found it:

    You have to customize the profile for each player on the setup screen. Any ideas on how to do this midgame then?

      Has anyone else seen a bug where the name of one of the players is overwritten by someone's Computer Name during PBEM play?

        That looks like a shame.

          It seems that the name reverts if you load the game from outside.

          If you double-click on the save file in Windows then it opens Civ IV and loads the game directly. When I did this for the first time this morning, it restored my name (but not the password.)

            Names can be changed mid-game, alt-D according to the kepmap ... no idea otherwise though, may be a bug. I'll ask Locutus and Solver if they're in irc...
