Andrew,

I already had him download the map last night. Here's what happened.....

We were playing Der Ost Front GC. We've noticed that after 3 or 4 games there is a high probability of the game crashing, so I said "let's go back to the main network screen and then reload game to avoid crash" and I did just that.

When Damp tired to rehost the game it kept telling him he needed a cd (well that's what he said to me at first...I think that's what he meant), then he said something about the Chateau.mmm and I sent him the link. He downloaded it and tried it and it still said "need cd" from what I understood of his Hamachi messages.

Not sure if that's exactly what he meant, or just what he wrote. He can clear it up.

With our GC save???

Did you complete the battle or just test?

That may screw up our game, not sure though.

You should both have a save - rename it it to keep it safe.

Do you have the "Save game Fix"  available from the support website?
