Getting a General 15 error

[smckechnie]

Trying to save a partially completed turn or end a turn and I get the above error.

I have the right version of the game loaded, so I am thinking that this is a server error.

Hi smchechnie,

The issue is likely your login is no longer compatible with the server as there have been some changes.

1) Please navigate to your USER folder for the game, typically found here:

Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War

2) Open the sc3.ini file and look for your PBEM++ login user name near the bottom of the file. Likely it is an email address or something else other than your current forum username.

3) Replace it with your forum username, e.g. smckechnie

4) Save the file, relaunch the game and let me know if this resolves the issue for you.

I am using Steam. Not finding the file that you mentioned, but will continue to look for it.

Found the file and fixed it. Working now.

Hi Hubert,

I have the same problem: I cant join pbem server, getting error 15. I changed the sc3.ini file as said above with my matrix forum name but I still get error 15. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Cicero77,

It might be that the game is having an issue with your password if it contains some special characters. That's the only thing I can think of and it might be worth trying to change your forum password and then the password in the SC3.ini file to see if that helps? But again if it does contain some special characters.

Thanks for your advice.

I changed my password (although the old password doesnt have special characters) and tried to log in to pbem again: I get error 6 now with new password and still error 15 with old password. And maybe its worth to mention: I can log-in to matrix forum with both passwords now. Weird.

I created a new matrix account. Joining the pbem server with the new account is possible.
