OK great! It looks like it's going to be 8pm. I've promised a friend I'd help him set up his new surround system and I won't be home til around then. I was hoping to do another human team vs AI team game like we did in the past, but I am open to other suggestions. Don't worry Bhruic, I've gotten better than I was in the first game so I won't need to rely on your generosity this time (I hope). ;)

Mage, i was thinking maybe we could do something with one of the autosave files. I notice that anyone can use a record file from someone else's game and computer, maybe autosave files are the same way. But anyway, your idea to not clean out game files mid game is probably a good one. ;)

Player deletes save file, unable to get back in game. in Technical Sins Forums

I've been hosting a game that has unfolded over a period of days and one of the players accidentally deleted his save file for that game. He could not get back in to the game, so I emailed him a copy of my save file and my stats file, but he was still unable to get in. when he'd try to log in, he would show up on the game loading screen for a split second and then disappear. Are there any other files he'll need in order to get back in to the game? Are the save and stat files computer specific, s

Joe, if you want to finish our game up it'll have to be either tonight or Friday night, I won't be around on Thursday. Mage your turtle shell is still miraculously intact, so if you want us to try to get you back in the game let me know. Who knows, maybe you have enough cash and minerals saved up by now to build a huge armada and bust out of that shell!

Things were just starting to get good with light blue when we had to stop for the night. that sucked. :/ Oh well.....I think I can be pretty flexible this week with what day we continue with the game, assuming we all want to. Joe, what day is good for you? Oh and yes the baby in my avatar is my son.

About tonight's game...I can't guarantee it will be exactly at 8:00 pm. Got the mother-in-law coming over for dinner. It's an early dinner so we should be OK but I can't say for sure. If I have to push the time back a little I'll leave a message if the board is working.

Reply to Dual Monitor Support in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Also you gotta consider that nowadays you can get two wide screen monitors for the same amount of cash(or less) that one CRT monitor used to cost a few years ago. Don't be so sure that there aren't enough two monitor gamers out there to make support worth it.

Reply to Dual Monitor Support in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I don't care about dual monitor support, but I wish I could use all of the zoom functions even when both monitors are set up. As it is now, the pan will not work in the direction the other monitor is in unless I change my comp settings to turn the second monitor off. Even if I can't play with two monitors, I'd like to be able to play without having to switch off one of the monitors first.
