Dio sent his turn but he told me he'd be unable to play. I can ask bintravkin. I'm not sure if we find someone with such discrepancies in the powergraph.

Hey, guys: why don't you make those patches dummyproof?  :P
Like, you know, one click and it works.
I have asked Yitzi this, and he replied with the old engineer's joke that the world would just make a better idiot.

I do think some attempts at idiot-proofing in his standard release blurbs would do an awful lot of good, but I hate to sound like I'm after him for a refund...

So Dio is letting binTravkin play Believers?

We can play but it will probably turn (and sooner than later) into a 2 vs Morgan.
Unless I play some sort of Fortress Consciousness on my land.
It could end nasty as soon as planes, missiles, busters will be available...

Do I absolutely have to use 3.3b on this?
Is it because of drone rules? Which rule is correct for this game?

EDIT: Also, it appears turn is not with Believers atm.

The 3.3b should have rule 0 (default one from SMAX).
The file (alphax.txt) out of zip patch file should be ok.

The problem is with versions, that they have differences in additional rules. As Yitzi puts new parameters in alphax.txt, this file changes between version. Only sometimes it does not.

Lots of updates is the kind of problem we want to have, but it seems it IS a problem for MP.  I hope we can work that out...

Not really a problem: just duplicate your whole SMAC folder with a new name and copy-paste the files in patch X.
Thus, you have all your saves with Yitzi 3.3b in one place, all those with 3.4 in another place, the vanilla folder if you need for GotM and so on...

Correction: REALLY A PROBLEM!!
I can't open my files in folder 3.3b with the terranx.exe in this folder: it opens the folder 3.4
 :mad:

Shall we put everything into 3.4?
Strange: yesterday, it worked.

You can navigate to folder 3.3, going up the folders as needed.
This is cause of entries in windows registry I think

I did my turn and then I noticed I have a turn with the same year in my folder. Can you check it out?

Also, welcome aboard bT! ;b; Have fun.

I think this was the last turn.
It seems that the last turn posted is from last page and says 2200 Morgan.
So, shouldn't I be receiving Conclave 2201 now?

Also, do I absolutely have to play it in 3.3b?
