More Replay Issues

[thekman]

So my hard drive went on my desktop that I was playing two games. That was Win 7. Version 1.13. So I went to the lap top which is Win 8.1, game version the same 1.13. For some reason now I can't see the replays. It doesn't give me the option to answer yes or no. That window doesn't even come up. Just goes right to the options page. I can't pull any files from the other computer I was playing, since I am unable (at this time) to get into the drive. How can I get the option to see replays back (with out starting new games?) I assume this is happening since I'm on another computer. If there is a file I need to pull, I can look on my back up to see if there was one backed up, but I doubt I had that folder to back up. Or can the file be sent by the other player?

Hi Kman,

This *should* only be temporary until you play your next turn as all the necessary game play files for your PBEM++ game will be rebuilt on your computer after you and your opponent play a couple of turns.

Let me know if this is not the case,
Hubert

Yes, that seems to be working okay now. Just missed the one replay. Thanks for your help!

So where (what folder) are these files that I need to transfer over to my new computer so that I don't miss a turn? I looked at the game files, looking for some kind of "save" file, but I don't see anything. I want to transfer to my new computer, now that it is set up. Thanks!

The game stores the static PBEM++ file data locally so as to speed up the PBEM++ server processing and this can be found on your other computer at the following hidden folder:

C:\Users\<windowsusername>\AppData\Local\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - War In Europe\PBEM++\<matrixusername>

If you copy the applicable DAT files for your current games from this folder and then place it in the same folder on your other computer you should be able to continue your game normally.
