Title: Watching Current Games
Post by 99of9 on Dec 10th, 2004, 4:34pm
Hi Omar,
There's a problem at the moment with the flash client for viewing current games.

For me too.  I tried two different computers.  I can watch any other games, but from the current games window, if I click on a game I get a game window, but it is empty.  It has an empty box for move history, but nothing else.

I'm getting the "empty game window with an empty box for moves" too, but I'm getting it when I try to _play_ a game not just when I try to view a game.  I normally have trouble sitting down to a game, but I've just now tried to sit down to a game six or seven times without success.

It's working for me now.

But now (and for the last week or so) I've been getting the invisible piece problem.  Basically when I watch games others are playing, sometimes I load the game and some pieces are invisible for the whole game.  Usually when I reload it a few times, I get it to work eventually.

Yes I noticed that problem too. Turned out that a log file had hit the file size limit (of about 2 GB). The script on the game server was crashing before it could send back the request and so the Flash client was not getting the game data. It's been fixed now.
