Problem loading rules with PC eReader
I have a similar issue to the one that was posted here
viewtopic.php?f=183&t=43209
I had entered a reply on this post being related but since I've had no reply thought it may be best to start a new post.
The ereader loads fine but its the download of the rules that keeps going into a continuous loop. Always on file 12 or 37. It will get 1/2 to 3/4 of the way through then clear and appear to start the download of that file again. I originally tried the download on a new Win 7 PC (Home Premium). I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck. I tried on a second PC also running Win 7 and the same issue arises. I'm using the v2.0.3 reader but the other post indicated there may be a new reader that fixes this issue. My purchase was just over a week ago so would have thought this is the latest.

Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
Sorry you are having problems. I have passed this on to the dev team and they'll look as soon as possible. Sorry for the late reply but we have been away all last week at Historicon at our annual press event.
Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
I don't know whether something has been fixed up on the server end but I tried this morning again and it downloaded. Hooray!! I did notice that the download rate was much faster than previous tries so if nothing was corrected I wonder whether there are timeout periods that would have caused the initial looping? ...anyway now up and running. Thanks.

I've not heard back yet so not sure if they fixed it or it just started working....

Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
Sorry we missed this - are you still having problems? If so what exactly is the issue? Is it PC, iPad, Mac? When does it fail?
Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
Hi, I'm having a similar problem. Everything seems to load up fine but all I get is blank grey with question marks.
I've deleted and reloaded about 5 times same same.
I use PC with windows 7 with plenty of RAM and processor speed and Avira anti virus.

Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
I have the same problem, the client loaded and the rulebook download worked, but when clicking on the rulebook it's all grey and opening the content there is a list of squares with question marks.
The client PC is 2.0.3 version, both client and rulebook were downloaded today for the first time.
Windows 7.

Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
Sorry just noticed that the last update is 2.0.4, updated both the software and the book and now everything is fine!
Re: Problem loading rules with PC eReader
Yeah never worked for me. So didn't receive either the rule book or rise of rome. Fell doubly ripped off.
