Error reading file!

RE: Error reading file!
For the record - the Game file formats are at times dependant upon version of the game. As new features are added often this creates a change in the PDT. THus the PDT version goes up to a new level and the older game does not understand how to handle the new PDT - ergo error reading file.

Another common cause is the file not closed so the other password is required to open the file - that isn't valid here as it is the first game turn.

Also - there is no file format difference due to the operating system, so VISTA and any previous vers on the game support will run and read the same files as long as the game versions are a match.

Note too - not all the games are patched to Vista so if you encounter a problem, a crash when playing a title, ensure you have the newest patch. Check the changes.txt file and it should say:

> " - Fixes for Vista compatiblity."

If it is an older title and it doesn't say this in the changes file, contact HPS Tech Support and we'll deal with it in an as needed order and basis. We simply can't patch and test everything at once so we do them as required.

Thanks Guys.
