  • Hmmm - Roast Pork, Crackling, Kumera, Spuds, Caulifower with Cheese Sauce!

    Thanks FeMme!

    Off To GeoModder for dessert!
    I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

    • I can't open the turn, I got a popup that the save I selected (the turn nugog forwarded me) is protected to ensure it's assets aren't modified or something like that.

      Can't check on an earlier save, they got deleted with a reinstall.

      • Maybe because you have upgraded to Warlords patch and the rest of us haven't???

        • Might be.
          In that case we have a problem... [/Houston]

          Edit: solved it, some modified file slipped in the vanilla version on my computer. Turn forwarded to Cerberus.

                I just got the same error with the save from Chrisius. Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

                I re-installed Warlords then patched 2.08 over the top of clean install.

                • Mmm, I played and forwarded the turn in 2.00 version. Now the question is if you created this game with "lock modified assets" or something like that or not. If so, it might be that or only the creator can change version, or this game is stuck in 2.00...

                  Try if 2.00 works is my first advice, it worked for me after a reinstall. Perhaps you can as the creator untag something, look under "details" or "options".

                  • Original question from Sir Ralph

                    I installed that patch, and now my PBEM file doesn't load.

                    "The file is read only to make sure you didn't change your Mods directory" (rough retranslation)

                    Is there a workaround for this?
                    Reply from Alexman

                    As with previous Civ4 patches, you need to clear your admin password before upgrading. Did you do that?

                    When you have an admin password for your game, saves with a different checksum than what you have on your machine will not load (to prevent cheating).
                    Reply from me

                    Cheers Alex

                    I am the admin, and I didn't.......

                    So, I should re-install Warlords, open save, clear admin password, then play save, then pass on save, then upgrade.

                    Is that correct??
                    Reply from Alexman

                    Yes, that would work, but then there would be no more admin password.

                    If you want an admin password, open the save with v2.00, save the game after clearing the password, then upgrade to 2.08, then load the game, then set the password again, then pass on the save.
                    Phew, all sorted and on the FeMme

                    • So do I need to patch before I play - have not done so yet?

                      I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life.

                          • I have followed the necessary protocol to continue in this game using the new fangled and highly acclaimed patch. I am looking forward to seeing these 'new' AI improvements firsthand!

                            Passed to Nugog (hope you have your patch ready.... )
