Can't load tournament battle

Post by mejobo »

Attempting to start my turn in a tournament battle presently keeps throwing errors and crashing the game. I can play fresh games no problem it seems.

After selecting the battle, it loads about 20%, then throws an error message which I'll reproduce here: "Missing TILES chunk in map file: C:/Users/(me)/AppData/Local/Temp/SKIRMISH.BAM (0)"

The application then fully crashes and throws this error: "*** Unhandled Exception! ExpCode: 0x800000003 Exp Flags: 0 ExpAddress: 0x005649BD Please Report!"

Looks like the file has become correupted on the PBEM server. The only thing that could be done would be to roll back the game to the previous turn.

Who is your opponent, and which player is playing which side?

It's actually Field of Glory II Medieval.

Breton 1350-1399 vs. Breton 1350-1399 w/English Continental 1350-1414 allies.
Opponent: stephenhamley, I believe side A based on the image below.

Unfortunately it turns out that it isn't possible to roll back tournament games. The only thing that can be done is to manually end the game with the current scores, to prevent either side being penalised for being timed out.

This will be done with the current scores: mejobo 47, stephenhanley 77.

Apologies for the glitch.

Can you check and see whether that file (and its path) exist? If it does, try deleting it and trying to reload your turn.

Hi Pip,

Not sure what you mean. What file?

Pet can roll back the file on non-tournament games, but he says that the PBEM system does not allow it for tournament games.
