Gentlemen,
Recently have come across a problem while training a new cadet. During one of the training scenarios I got an "Error reading replay file". I didn't think much of it because I have seen this from time to time in my gaming and since that assignment was nearly complete I just had him continue to the next one. When playing the final assignment in his training in the MR folder of BGG and on the 3rd turn I got the "Error reading replay file" during the replay again and again his turn didn't finish. As I said I have had this occur from time to time in my pbem games and normally you can skip the replay and then continue or resend and redo the turn and it disappears. However when I tried skipping the replay I found we had no objective hexes and my turn 3 releases didn't take place. So I resent my previous turn and asked the cadet to replay his turn only to have the problem recur with the new file.
Had the cadet delete the pbem.xxx and .yyy files but still had the problem. I sent the files to Gen Ross and he had the same problem I did. Gen Ross thought maybe the cadet had opened the file in the wrong folder since it will replay in the GB folder, but when I asked him about this he said he checked his game folders and the only place that .bte was located was in his MR folder. So I had him start the scenario over again only to have the same thing happen, first two moves went ok then on the third file the error showed up in the replay.
Now this cadet is ready to graduate but I hesitate to complete his training until we discover the cause of this problem. Would appreciate any help anyone could provide on possible causes and solutions to this problem.
