Maybe there is some undocumented way to make it work. Or maybe the same user who fixed the original PitBoss will fix the new one.

Well I just tried pitboss 208,the pitboss file that comes with the game. It seems to have been fixed. I loaded up a game and joined it myself no problem.....You may just be able to use vr208 pitboss to load old version save. Its working for my ip games, that is I gan load old version ip games with the new version.

ok i have a question why is platfuss last to take his turn every single turn without fail, when he takes his turn last surely he can take 2 turns?? Is he playing his turns? He is playing his turns, he doesnt read the threads very often, tho. On workdays I can only play my turns between 6 and 11 pm. So it might happen that this will make me the last player. The idea with the "double-move" is very good in theory. However, when I tried it I got an error (dont remember exactly what went wrong). Have you ever tried it successfully?

I have done it regularly in other games. Once you click the done button, you should be able to immediately move again. If you try that and get an error, post the error here and someone should be able to help.

What have you done so far? I had some trouble, cause I DL patch and then tried it, after going to a restore point before patch, which seemed to messed everything up, but straightened it out, so may be able to help you.

IP did not change. It looks to be running ok on this end.

I have recruited Emperor to replace Tony. Let's all welcome him. He's a regular over at StrateGamer.

By the way, there ARE autosaves from which you can reload the latest turn. If I recall correctly they're in a different directory so are not immediately easy to find. I'll ask the hosts of some of the other Pitboss games I'm in, since I know they've reloaded many times from player autosaves.
Are you planning to patch the Pitboss to version 2.08 anytime soon? I know that it does work with the patch (at least, perhaps with a hack), since one of my other Pitboss games is currently running just fine on 2.08 after being patched up.

There's a way of patching the 200 pitboss game to 2.08 ? Please do tell.

Sorry for the delay guys, I only just checked back here... seems I don't get reply notifications as I do for most other forums, which is a bit of a pain since I usually rely on them so much. The only incompatibilities with 2.00 and 2.08 saves are (1) the admin password, and (2) locked modified assets. I think that the latter is a single-player only option, so that doesn't matter. All that needs to be done for the game to be compatible with 2.08 is for whiplash to remove the admin password for the game (if he even set one in the first place). Once he's done that, he can patch the game and we can all play on 2.08. Tony, it's okay, I've gone through everything myself and have sorted out my own short term and long term strategies now. Feel free to PM me your original ideas if you like, though I usually prefer to do things in my own way when I'm playing in these sorts of games. By the way, is this game registered on Civstats? www.civstats.com/allgames.php

I will be on a Det from 28 Nov til 8 Dec. I will be in civilization for the most part, but 2 days in each direction I will miss my turns at that time. I hope you can all wait the extra 20 hours for your turn, if not I guess find a sub...
