Client program: circles error

Post by shaqua471 »

While i was updating my moves for the new round somehow the client crashed and now the circles game won't pop up in my available games and the log files gives me this error:

You appear to have a corrupted games directory. It looks like a change I made in the last release makes this more likely, my apologies; I'll fix it in the next release.

In the meantime, the best way to recover is probably to reset your games directory. Make sure the client is not running, and delete or rename the folder c:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\Application Data\RSW . Then start the client again. It will re-download your game files correctly. (If you have received any exported turn reports from allies, you'll have to re-import them.)
