Launching Crash

[Tsab]

Hi all.

I need help, I’m running Windows 7 and every time I launch the game, a (transparent) windows appear and then crash… I don’t know what to say more I don’t have any error message. I have try about all version stable and experimental terminal and SDL/Tiles.

The only way I was able to launch the game was to compiling the game following the method with codeblock describe in this forum but I wasn’t able to play full screen and with tiles.

If I can give you useful information on my problem I would but I don’t know which…

Sorry for my noob level and pardon my English.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Did you extract the files from the folder first?

Hello,

I’v found the same issue as well.

Whatever version i try to use (last stable, and some last release daily, curse or sdl) the game won’t start - as soon as I open the game, it stuck before i can see anything.

i’v open the option.txt and I found that there is now some translation (french, in my case).

I really don’t care about it, i just wonder if the fact that this computer use french setting could change something.

(i’v play from 0.6 to experimental 0.9 without any problem like this)

I don’t know so i ask : what this game use ? (i mean what i should try to reinstall on my computer or try to found older version of it)

Are you using a localization version of windows? If you are try deleting the lang folder, IIRC the game may be trying to load a non-existent translation of the game and crashing when it can’t find it.

It worked!

For information, my regional option is on FR Switzerland, I deleted the lang folder and now everything work fine.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, it was the problem.

Couldn’t be done something to avoid this, like use by defaut english if nothing is found ?

Well not a big matter anyway, but at last we could use a small .txt inside the folder explaining this.
