PBEM++ game language has changed

Post by El Condoro »

I started a game with liesnig and for the first turns it has been in English and all fine. For some reason, the flag on the Challenge page for the game is now German (all others are English) and I can't open it (the buttons etc all change to German). I assume the game language can't be changed mid-game? Is there a fix for this?

[Edit]: My dumb. Wrong version.

Hi El Condoro,

Can you confirm the version number of the game you are playing by letting me know what version is shown in the bottom right hand corner of the MAIN MENU screen of the game?

The reason I ask is that under v1.16 the language flags for the Challenge page should no longer show as the game will localize PBEM++ games into your language of choice no matter what language your opponent is playing the game in.

My only guess is that you started under v1.16 and then maybe reverted your game to v1.15.02? If this was done then it would make sense and the PBEM++ system under v1.15.02 or older is locked into the chosen language at game start. Either way, starting under v1.16 and then reverting to v1.15.02 is not advised and we cannot guarantee that the game will properly play as expected.

It is a 1.16 game but it showed green in the 1.15 version (I had installed it for another 1.15 game). The problem occurred when I opened the 1.16 game in 1.15.

I am not sure if I should start another thread but a couple of times - and it's not consistent - I have been shown my opponent's full turn in the PBEM++ replay. So, when I am playing the Axis, I get to see all the dispositions of the Allies during the replay. As I say, it hasn't happened every turn but has happened in two separate games.

When you see your opponent's full turn in the PBEM++ replay, was it only when you went from v1.16 to v1.15? OR did it also happen under v1.15 only, or v1.16 only etc.?

I can only open and play the turn when I am in 1.16 (with the language problem in the OP). So both games are in 1.16 and the problem is not consistent - I have played all turns except one from each that shows the replay as normal. I'll report if it happens again with more information.

Would this happen, possibly, only when you were switching computers to play turns from time to time?

It might, come to think of it. I have a 1.15 game going and revert to it in Steam, then reinstall 1.16 to play other turns. I have a 1.15 turn waiting, so I'll look out for this after I play it.

Thanks as we did find one issue in this case, that can happen only for one side, and it will be fixed for the next release.

I have just played a 1.15 turn followed by a 1.16 turn - both replays were normal.
