Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
Well I'm stumped.I have no problem with one of Henrik's saves but the others have some 'extra" stuff in them that just causes "fail to load" or "Civ2 has encountered problems and must shut down"
Rather annoying.Probably something really simple too

It seems that I have no trouble enclosing readable game saves in an email (to CFC, for instance), so whatever is happening seems to be an unintended consequence of including a game save in a post. However, I can reload my own saves from posts at Apolyton, so whatever is going on is non-destructive. I play entirely from my hard disk without the Civ II CD, if that might could be an issue.
I wish this problem could be solved as I am eager to participate in succession games.
I used to run saves thru it making a zip.Then unzip straight away.For some reason that would leave me with a plain white "dog's ear' save file which I could then compress and send off to PCers with no further hassles.

Still messed up and 140 k.Try getting maczip.Its free at download.com.Not too big.Handy to have anyways since stuffit can't make a zip iirc.
Make it into a zip and then decompress with stuffit and see what is left.I seem to recall an option in stuffit "remove mac resource fork" or something like that.Im not sure if that is a problem or not.

OK, I got MacZip (a singularly un-Mac-y program) and I ran this save through MacZip (data fork only) and then stuffit expander and I got a dog-eared file, which is enclosed. (by the way, this is a challenging game to win - you start on Easter Island on a 1-square hill...)
