H2HH v 2.11.0

Just noticed this @PhilM - good spot - I will update accordingly - Or does that cause issues with ongoing games?
 
Hi @Richtig, glad it was useful.

The update caused no problems for me (on a Mac), and I know GaJ tries to make sure that new versions install simply and carry over all ongoing game details from one version to the next.

Did just that for me, all games and their dropbox folders recognised automatically: upgrade was seamless for me.
 
Just to point out that there is now a v2.11.2 available - resolves issue of non-deletion of temporary chat files for some users, which could over time cause a build-up of said temporary (and unneeded) files, AIUI ....
 
Perhaps you need an explanation "from the horses mouth" - i.e. GaJ himself! There is a recent thread on the BF forums about the chat files.

But my non technical explanation, FWIW, is that usually the definitive chat files are sent / stored only in the relevant dropbox folder - you can see from there what is present / how big a file(s) it is. The temporary files created as the chat files are made are deleted automatically.

The problem was a bug that arose when GaJ changed the format of the chat messages (at around v 2.9 I think), so that the new and old versions of chat could not "chat" with each other. If two people with incompatible versions then tried to chat, the temporary files that were created as part of the process were not then removed automatically, as they normally are: I guess because the chat didn't actually complete correctly.

Those temporary files were created - and remained - in whichever place Windows puts temporary files. (AFAIK, not a problem for the Mac version, which I use.)

Hope this helps.
