    Very interesting. I was investigating why I am not (again) showing up on the List... I double checked everything... I am running Build 67 of GD...
    Yet, there are 3 .GAL Packets sitting in my In box...

    So I manually ran GalacticDynasty Maintenance and it gave me the message
    (1 for each .GAL file)...
    Version Mismatch, is your game up to date? (Packet 00006 vs Local: 00007) Version Mismatch, is your game up to date? (Packet 00006 vs Local: 00007) Version Mismatch, is your game up to date? (Packet 00006 vs Local: 00007) Parsed 0 inbound messages
    Forwarded 0 messages.

    I triple Checked the File_ID.DIZ of the latest GDYNWIN.ZIP and it clearly
    says Build 67...

    So.. I wonder whats going on...I even did a Reset.Bat, then tried Maintenance once again and the same Errors as above...

    Thanks.

    I wonder if Andrew can code a switch in the main .exe that outputs the
    version, so you can be sure you have the correct version in your game dir?

    I also see some packets from another system (yours? not sure) that is sending the HUB packets that are ver 6 when I think the game now expects ver 7 packets.

    Also I found a copy of the tic file and .zip for the GD game I had sent to encom bbs in the 1/10 games/usenet HUB inbound - weird as it should have been sent to the 1/10 system. I wonder if the old packets are from that BBS?

    The fact I see you showing up in the scores now, means your sending out the correct packets

    Andrew - could you add logging for the maint lines to show up some more
    details if an error occurs ? Which system and packet version mismatch?

    Best, Paul

    the correct packets

    Paul;
    I received 2 .GAL Packets, I ran Maintenance and it imported 2 Scores
    (Zorn and Knight)...
    The other 3 as mentioned before are still there... Dead... Like Galactic Speed-Bumps that everyone runs over on the way to the Mall...
