Game crashes in replay

Post by elmo3 »

Playing a PBEM game as the Allies. It's my turn so I say Yes to watching the replay. It starts to run but then the error shown below pops up and the game crashes to the desktop when I hit OK. It happened twice out of two tries. I won't try to continue the game without watching the replay until you guys have a chance to look at this. The games is GordianBlade as the Axis and elmo3 as the Allies. Let me know if I need to PM you the password.

Edit - Restarted my computer to see if that would help but it didn't. The Japanese are making an air attack on Nanning right at the start of the replay, and when my Chinese fighter intercepts it throws the error every time.

Edit - Reinstalled the game this morning but it still crashes at the same point in the replay.

Sine this problem has not received any response I went ahead and said No to watching the replay, and was then able to complete my turn without any issues. It might be interesting to note that I had already played this turn and ended it previously, but apparently the server never recorded it or sent any message to my opponent that it was his turn. I'm absolutely positive I had already finished this turn the other day as the same events fired again and the same units came up during the Production phase for me to place on the map. Perhaps the error noted above was because I had already seen the replay and done my turn but the server still thought it was my turn.

Hi Elmo,

I had your thread here open and by the time I got back to it and posted that I was to look at it, I now see you've already played the turn through. Sorry about that as there was a lot to catch up on yesterday from after the holidays.

Hubert
