PBEM file size |

Hi, our 4 player game is only on turn 23 and the email files the host is sending out are 7 MB already? The problem seems to be the combat replay file which is 6 MB by itself. We have one player on dialup and he cannot continue if the downloads are this big. Any way to reduce the cmb file size or exclude it entirely?

Once everyone had a chance to see the combat report, why continue sending that file? The only file that really matters is the .gam file. That's the only one people need.

Hi there, if you use the options setting in game and get all players to set the combat log history to one turn then this should help reduce the combat log file size to a minimum?
Hope this helps Spuda

Re: PBEM file size
Are you compressing the files that would help a bit if you aren’t and then there is the fairly common 10mb attachment limit on e-mails to consider? It is also think possible that old information stops being added but I am not sure as the multiplayer I am in is literally play by mail and their is plenty on a CDR so I have not paid attention to the file size and any possible bloat
