Hi,

There is a known bug in 3DFiBs (could be a FIBS server issue) where a saved game that is resumed does not always display the correct state of the cube. If you were playing a post crawford game and dropped/resumed, the client may display a crawford game. If you have the log files of this game (dropped games are saved as opponentname.tmp) we may be able to look into it further.

I also just noticed today that dropped/resumed saved games don't seem to be creating jf.mat files as they used to. Not sure exactly why yet but I was able to append the opponentname.tmp to the corresponding opponentname.log file to it and then use the 3dfibs "convert to jf.mat" menu to create an gnubg importable file.

Hi tucsonAZ

thanks for your reply. I'm not at the pc where I have played this particular match so I can't see if there's a tmp-file. I'm sure it wasn't a doubled game but indeed it was a resumed match. Maybe that's the point.

Greetings
