linux pbem help

[jsirucka]

Hi All

I have a problem where my save*.csg files in a linux cannot be loaded onto a windows pbem game.

I have applied the 1.2a patch.

What am I doing wrong. How do I get linux and windows compatiability.

Please respond to me at yaboo@dodgyware.com

Thanks

Joseph

How do you transfer your file from your linux system on to your window system ??

I didn't know there was a version of CTP for linux...

J, shame on you

Zobo,
The possibilities are legion: 2 OS on 1 PC (with shared HDDs), FTP, etc, you name it...

Joseph,
CtP for Windows and CtP for Linux are two different games developed for two different OSs by two different companies. Although not 100% impossible, I seriously doubt that the savegame formats would be compatible. Is this advertised anywhere? If not, then they're probably not compatible and you'll have to play games either in Windows or in Linux - switching between the two OSs with a savegame is most likely not possible.

You can load linux save games in windows, but you get some very strange results, like e.g. all cities having a forcefield even in the ancient age, making the game unplayable.

compatiability

Hi

it seems linux ctp saved games do load under windows so far without any problems once the 1.2a patch is installed.

Currently palying the world story game and it seems fine.
