Pbem File Size Mismatch

[Taxman66]

I started my turn in a pbem game (id# = 148260) and then had to save (actually had to save twice as the first time failed with Communication error) to do an errand.
When I came back and attempted to reload I am getting an error message saying "File Size Mismatch".

If this isn't a server problem, then I suspect the save I made was corrupted.

[Taxman66]

This save file has to have been corrupted.

Do I need to contact someone/somewhere else?

What I can do is try and reset it back to the previous saved turn on the PBEM++ server, let me know if you'd like me to proceed on that. Otherwise I'm not sure what else could be done in this instance.

[Taxman66]

Thank you Hubert.

It is agreeable with me.
I have PM'd Fafnir, and asked him to look at this thread.

[Fafnir]

That would be ok for me too.
Thank you very much Hubert.

[Hubert Cater]

Great, I've tried setting the server to restore the previous saved turn. Let me know if it has helped,

Nope, still getting "File Size Mismatch".

[Fafnir]

Should the previous turn not be my turn?
Is there also a backup file for my turn, maybe it helps if I redo my turn.

I'm still on 1.16 not on 1.16.02. Does it matter if not both sides have the hotfix.

[Taxman66]

Remember I had an attempted save (gotten a server communication error), and then saved again (appeared to work correctly).
If Hubert reset to the previous attempt it may have gone to the failed save?
I suspect this as the game still shows as in green Italics for me to load (green meaning my turn, and italics meaning a save in progress).

Perhaps it could be set back to when Fafnir completed his turn? Or back to prior to Fafnir's last turn?

[Hubert Cater]

Unfortunately the server only allows it to go back to the last previous turn, not more than that as nothing else is stored on the server for each challenge.

I would suggest both of you updating to v1.16.02 to see if that helps as well.

[Taxman66]

Nope, still getting the same message.

[Hubert Cater]

It's likely then that the save was unfortunately corrupted and unrecoverable, apologies for this.
