Game not recognizing orders

Hi!

We (me and my friend Tiopepe) are having troubles with a HAN game that is above the 120 turn, so we don't want to break a game that has costed so much time, sweat and tears. The game that my friend is hosting doesn't recognize my orders. I send him my orders but nothing. My forces remain quiet.

Thinking about it, the only thing that may be the cause is the new patch. Last week me and Arsan begun a new HAN game. His copy of the game is recent (HAN 1.01 patch) and the game that me and Tiopepe are playing is older (HAN 1.01 beta patch). So I decided to arrange two copies of the game in my hard drive: one with the 1.01 beta patch to play the Tiopepe game and another with the 1.01 patch to play the Arsan game.

So I copied the 1.01 beta patch copy of the game and copied it in another folder and installed the 1.01 patch over it. Then I opened the "credits" button of both copies to test that the patch version of each game was correct and yes, they are.

Can you help us a bit, please? I'll attach here the game files as soon as possible.

Nothing weird when processing the turn (under 1.01).

CAR units moving accordingly to the orders.

Sorry.

Thank you, Bohémond. Then one of our games is the problem, probably mine.

We don't know what to do next. We tried already take some turns back and replay them in order to know if it was some file corrupted, but the CAR units didn't move.

Are the saves of 1.01 beta patch compatible with the 1.01 patch version of the game? Then Tiopepe could upgrade his game to the latest patch.

Saves from 1.01 beta are compatible with 1.01.

Then Tiopepe can upgrade his version 1.01 beta to 1.01 official and maybe that could solve the problem.

I don't even knew that was possible. But how? He passes me all the files and I open it as CAR player?

Thanks, Bohémond. We've tried your instructions and it seems that it has worked :D .

We're running the game with 1.01 version and now I'm the host of the game. It's strange because if Tiopepe runs the game my orders don't work.

I ran into a similar issue after installing a new patch. I think the update reverted my game options back to default - it changed the 'file compression' option. I suspect that may be the culprit but I was not able to confirm.

I have asked elsewhere if both players need to have the same compression option, but have not gotten an answer. I think a host with compression turned off may have a problem processing turns with another players compressed orders?
