WitE2 multiplayer

Have any problems been reported with WitE2 multiplayer system? Recently, I posted 2 challenges (non password protected) Both were accepted. In this case, my opponent played first. In both cases the opponent failed to complete even the first turn, and after several weeks I received an email message ...

Re: Critique of G.G. War in the West

Ran dx diagnostics; report stated that corrupted files were found and repaired; restarted computer and loaded WitW; Fow still not working. Since I actually had the game open when this occurred, I have to conclude that the game itself caused corruption to my system.

Re: Critique of G.G. War in the West

I take your point about protecting amphibious HQs, and came to the same conclusion myself. It was when I attempted to start the scenario over that I realized fog of war was no longer operational, nor was it in any other scenario. Only those turns and scenarios that were saved prior to that time ...

G.G. War in the West

Been playing this for some time, both multiplayer and single player without issue. Suddenly, when loading a scenario (single player), I noticed that fog of war was no longer working, even though it was turned on. Discovered that it wasn't working for any scenario I loaded. I did notice that turning ...

Re: Critique of G.G. War in the West

Obviously it's not working like that on my computer or there wouldn't be a problem. Turning fow on and off works as intended on the jump map, but on the main map all units are visible, as if fow was always off. The question is why? It's no help at all to just blame the user's computer. I've always ...

Re: Critique of G.G. War in the West

Uninstalled game and reinstalled a second time; fog of war still not operational in any scenario. I have noticed that with fog of war turned off, all units appear on the jump map in addition to the main map. With fog of war on, units do not appear on the jump map, but are still visible on the main ...

Re: TOAW- version compatibility

I'm familiar with the procedure. You choose "close" from the file pulldown menu (definitely not "save game"), then click "save and close". After a few moments, the game screen disappears and you're back at the opening menu. Your turn has been saved to the server at that point and you can continue ...

Re: TOAW- version compatibility

I'm playing Pacific at War 1941-1945. The game loads fine in single player mode, but I'm playing a pbem game that I just started- turn 1. I loaded the game to take a look, made a few moves, then saved it to the server to continue later. When I tried to load it from the server, that's when I got the ...

TOAW- version compatibility

Why am I getting a "your version of toaw does not support this scenario"? I have the latest version and the scenario works perfectly in single player mode. But in pbem mode, when I save a turn to the server and attempt to reload it to continue, I get that message.

Critique of G.G. War in the West

Hard to know where to begin: Try to imagine World War II, Western Front, where the British Navy doesn't bother to show up and you get an inkling of what's wrong with this game. While much time and effort were expended to increase player involvement in the Air war (some would say unnecessarily ...

Pacific at War 1941-1945

Started the game above. Loaded it to take a look around and then saved it to the server. When I tried to reload it, I got a message that my version of TOAW doesn't support the scenario, even though I already had it loaded before. And yes, I have the latest game version. Who can explain this problem?

RE: Trouble saving a PBEM game?

<t> Trying to figure out how to save a PBEM game? Read on, but first, it's appropriate to express a deep level of frustration and disappointment directed to Matrix Games, and the developers of this game in particular. To save a game, you'd think you would select "save game" right? Wrong. Save game ...

A challenger can click on "accept challenge" but the first prompt is "enter opponent's password" which you probably don't know. How many ...

Game won't send

<t> Does anyone know why sometimes a game refuses to be sent to the opponent? I get the usual "game sent to opponent" message, but it has not been sent. Still appears on my list of games as my turn, and of course you have to play the entire turn over. In one game I had to replay the same turn 3 ...
