Achinerd, I couldnt load it up from hotmail. I had to send it to my family's personal account to get it. Save to the desktop and openb the .sve file. Should be goos to go then.

Sorry to see you guys are having trouble getting your turn. I hope you got it figured out. Just in case you didn't here is what I did:

Detach the files from your email (you can place them anywhere on your pc and I did did desktop). Then load up the game and chose "Load PBEM" and then open the detached file from your email. Complete your turn then press the "End Turn" button. The game should inform you that it saved the files. Go to your email and attach the two files from the PBEM folder in your CoG directory.

Peever, I tried to do what you are describing, but it wasn't working. I think the ccbasin is right, the saves are not compatible with hotmail. I'll use my other e-mail to open them, unfortunatly I won't be able to do it until I get home from work. Sorry for the delay, but hopefully we'll get all the kinks out and this will go smoother in the future.

I forwarded the save to my other e-mail account. It is working fine, now I just have to play the turn, I shall have it along this evening.
It seems hotmail does not support PBEM.

I had problems with the files please send me using winzip to both files. Thanks in advance

[garoco]

I´m sorry BossGnome, [:(]I had thought that Spain was controlled by the machine, but exist a player called Matzo.
Please if someone could reach me the email of Matzo, Spain player, to send the files. However I sent a mail way member profile of Forum ask about of his email
Thanks in advance

Hi BossGnome
Thanks file send yet to Spain
Regards
Gabriel

[matzo]

I recieved the file but am unable to open it (my computer is not recognizing the file) . I have windows xp and comcast high speed internet for email. Any one have any recommondations. It is telling me that the file type is unknown so I dont know what program to look for to open it. It was sent to me via a hotmail address. Does that mean anything? Thanks.

[matzo]

I think I have it figured out. I loaded a winzip program. I have taken my turn and sent it to Boss Gnome. He will let me know if he got it ok. Thanks for the help. Sorry for the slow down.

[BossGnome]

there is a small problem with the turn matzo sent me. It still says "spa." at the end of the turn, and not "fra." as it should say. I am not sure you ended your turn correctly, matzo.

[garoco]

Is possible that Matzo had clicked end of turn, but sent the files wrong, I suggest that Matzo review his folder and look if exist the same file but with the extension. fra, then he will send both files rpe and sve [8D]

[matzo]

I have done what you recommended Garco and BossGnome has recieved those files. Game on. Sorry about the delay everyone. I am new to this. I should have all the kinks worked out by the next turn. Thanks.[&o]
