Did you install latest patch?

Was it a custom scenario? If so, did you install the scenario files?

I seem to have occasional problems with the file compression utilities. I am running W7 64 bit, and the occasional glitch seems to occur every now and then (quite seldomly), even though I switched to 7zip.

I can't think of any reason at all why such problem would ever appear, zipping a simple text file should have nothing to it. Still, I took a habit to send both the bte file and the zip file as attachments, and it proved to be that the bte file worked, when ever the zipped bte did not.

The thing is, though, that what you described happened to others, based on the files I sent, not files sent to me. I never have had any issues reading a bte file (uncompressed nor plainly sent.

So, this is propably not helpful at all :( Thought I'd share this anyway

As a second thought, ask your friend to resend the zipped bte file that did not work, and to send the original bte without compression as well.

Does the problem occur with both files???

Hello Eric:

I am not a computer expert...but I have noticed the zip utility in my new rig (Windows 7 64 bit) has issues as well. When I zip a file to send I have to delete the previous zip file from the game folder before I zip or it fails to overwrite.
Not sure if that would help with your issue Eric but you could give it a try.

Failing that you may want to reload a new zip utility file in case yours is having issues.

Regards,

Dan

Game was stock surprise party EFII I generated it to test for him.
Looks like he can start solo play but a pbem game crashes.

File was sent uncompressed, Eric says he has installed latest patch.
