Yes, our non steam members now show invalid files for our online league when we try and import their files.

We had a couple online league members try the Fastspring download but it gives a registration error. Having these versions not match basically stops all online leagues from continuing

I can't stress enough that this is a MAJOR issue. One of the quickest ways to kill a good online league is to miss a few days of sims due to tech difficulties. As DrunkenTeddy indicated above, that's where our league (and most likely many online leagues) is stuck. Commish's trying to run sims have .77, while many players on non-steam versions have .74 and the sim won't run because the exports are incompatible. So we are into our third day of outage.

Honestly what are they thinking the dev team, putting an update without changes and apply it only on steam

Romagoth · 06-30-2019, 03:10 PM

Any update on this Jeff? This needs to be fixed so online leagues can move forward.

See the new post for the 5.8.77 update. It should've worked for multiplayer without updating, but apparently not, so manually updating to 5.8.77 via the download should fix that.

DrunkenTeddy, you don't need to use the Fastspring version. If you try to you will only get activation errors because Fastspring and Esellerate use two different Key systems. We (should/will) be continuing to put out updates for both Esellerate and Fastspring users. So whatever you bought the first time just stick with updating your game with that. So for you guys just keep downloading the Esellerate version of the updates and you'll be fine.

Alex, can you please post the FHM 5 Fastspring download link for iMac? The product key I was given at time of purchase doesn't work when I download the eSellerate version.

Something you may want to look into, is if I go to discuss a trade to see what they'll possibly accept, but then offer the exact trade the AI was offering it rejects that trade. It's silly that if I offer exactly what they were that they would reject.
