I keep on having very frequent crashes, I get an error message but when I select the option to send an email, it seems it needs to have an email program somehow, so I cannot send anything.

Can you manually send the bug report file (BugReport.Txt) to MadExcept.MatrixGames.com? It should have accumulated all the bug reports into the one file. Or at the very least have the most recent one.

Will do. In which directory?

I'm not sure. Sorry. [I receive the bug reports, not send them.]

Maybe a beta tester can answer this?

It is here: C:\Matrix Games\World in Flames

Ok, then I can say there is not such file.

That is unfortunate. Working together we could likely have found it and got it to Steve and it would have been fixed for the good of all MWiFdom,

I have no idea on computing or telecoms, but...

... could this mean that the problems were not inside the program itself but of the Slitherin lobby? I got lots of error messages, I guess from the lobby (a small box with like 4-6 options) that should be recorded in an error log if it was from NWIF, unless the report generator wasn't working, of course which is unprobable because you have been using it.

Can you take screenshots when things go wrong? That would be a big help.

Sorry, Steve, didn't read this one. I guess you won't need them by now with all the reports on network errors...

Yea no bugreport.txt. I'm getting enough bugs that this file would be worthwhile.

It should be there in the World In Flames folder.

Didn't find it either. I will look again next time I have an error. I don't try the game since some days/weeks.

It is only produced if the Madexcept pops up, not if the game freezes or appears to freeze.
