E-Mail game problem - security violation?

Post by Fishu »

I haven't yet got to play e-mail game because it has always put up "security violation" error when loading its save file.
It is been after my first turn and then I send files to opponent and he says there is security violatin and ill go check if i get same when i load - i get same too.

Email games must be saved in one of the first 10 slots or it won't work.

If you are doing that and still get the security violation message, I would begin to think that there may be some difference in the OOB files between you and your opponent. They must be identical.

The encryption program monitors such things to be sure one player or the other isn't making changes to the oob or re-playing the turns....

If either of you at any point try to load the game file after you have just played it, you may corrupt the game file and have to go back to an earlier turn--at least that's the way I understood it from Paul V.
