The Five Continents of Eden

[Moonbars]

Khannalcytys and myself are free to play some rapid fire tomorrow at 10pm GMT - how does that work for you guys?

Sent to kiwis.


1850 BC -

Nothing much has changed. Still scouting with the boldest of apes. Not much intelligent life has been found outside our premises. Besides, I slipped in one of my bananas peels today.....Darn. Now, on to the shores. *Splash*

[Andydog]

Khannal, you sent me the wrong save - you sent me the save that Moonbars sent you.

However it is fortunate that you did:

If there reads 'Swiss alias Apes' next to Khannalx name, that is the incorrect (wrong) version.

I fixed to plain 'Apes' in the right version where saltpeter was fixed.

From this, it should be easy to check if you have played the wrong version or not

[Andydog]

So as I strongly suspected, we are playing the wrong version.

I have now sent the correct save to Chrisius, unfortunately we have to start again from 3950 BC!

I'm around at 10pm tonight for some rapid fire turns.

[Moonbars]

It name appears correct in the score list however..

[Khannalxytys]

Yes, I saw that too Andy, but since conqueror said he changed I thought he did change but only the scores list. In any event I think you (due to some detail you have memorized) might have more basis to judge. I'm up for playing again, since I have made the very same moves I did in the old version I wouldn't know the difference. Also, with those possible rapid fire turns it must go faster even so.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Are you sure Andy, I thought Conqueror meant on the drop down list showing scores in game, at least thats what I think he said !!


And I know for a fact that I sent the correct save to Krill the second time around !!

Its not a surprise that you had the same things happen when you played before, the game is exactly the same except for the addittion of one saltpeter resource, so the seed would be identical.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

I will wait some confirmation first before we keep going around the mountain with this, Im sure we are playing the correct game already.

Can someone speak with Conqueror again to check this out for sure ?

[Andydog]

I'm sure we're playing the wrong save Chrisius. The first incorrect game had a goodie hut give me a free tech. The second correct game had the same goodie hut give me something different. The game we're playing now, I have that free tech, therefore must be wrong.

[Conqueror]

um. should not be hard to check. compare to this picture again. if there reads "Swiss alias Apes" next to Khannalx name, its the WRONG version.

and, btw, there should not be "Swiss alias apes" in the password screen. if there is, its the WRONG version.

also, Charisius has easy way to check if the version is right or wrong. in the WRONG version, there reads something else next to his name, and "Clans" in the RIGHT version.

hope its now clear enough i'll attach the RIGHT picture again. easy to alt+tab during turn and verify.

/edit: unable to attach the picture, poly gives error, but check it from last time i posted it http://apolyton.net/forums/attachmen...postid=3054544

[Conqueror]

ahh now apolyton lets me post images again, dont know what the error was.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Well Im not so sure myself Andy, if the preserve seed is off then that could account for the difference you mention, but as were only a few turns in and for peace of mind all round Ill play with the save you sent earlier and start again Ill do this right now and send to Krill just after

3950BC to Krill once more I hope

[Andydog]

Thanks for clarifying things Conqueror - guys we are DEFINITELY playing the WRONG version.

This is the image we get from the incorrect game:

[Andydog]

..which is what we are seeing now.

this is what we SHOULD be seeing:

[Andydog]

..and we definitely aren't seeing that.

Furthermore, Khannal's password screen is wrong.

Chrisius, Preserve Random Seed is on because whenever I play the wrong version, the hut always pops me a tech. When I play the right version, the hut always pops me the same something else.

Lets restart from the 2950BC save I sent you yesterday and get on with this game!
