While this is true for Dune Wars, I'm nearly certain it will not effect LoR. I have intentionally un WoCed everything and unlike Dune Wars users no one reports CtDs when not launching as an admin for LoR. They just get a bunch of ini failure messages, and the interface doesn't work. I'm very hopeful that the user settings in My Documents works, as I can then just fix this with the installer.@phungus420 - As davidallen has found, I think the problem is with WoC and not BUG's INI files. However, verification of this issue on Vista would be a Good Thing(tm), so thank you Lemon Merchant!
Yeah, as EF says you should just blow them off and do something more fun tonight, like debug someone elses mod(Big romantic evening tonight. )
Live yer dream...Sorry, love. I can't make it tonight! Raincheck?
If you think that I'm going to blow off someone who reminds a lot of people of this person...Yeah, as EF says you should just blow them off and do something more fun tonight, like debug someone elses mod
Hi Phungus!@Lemon Merchant
I want to try a workaround, that I can later resolve with the install script for Vista users. Unfortunately I have no way to test this myself, my computer refuses to recognize "read only". I have tried to make LoR and the mods directory itself read only, and windows says it is; but I can still modify files inside of it; also I tried creating a new limited user account and I could still modify files even when marked as read only as a guest. So I can't test it.
If you're willing, please try this for me.
1)Download and install LoR
2)Cut the User Settings and Autolog folder out of the mod
3)Create a new folder inside My Documents/.../Beyond the Sword (not BtS/mods, just BtS, where BtS's main ini file is), name this folder LoR
4)Paste the User Settings and Autolog folders inside this My Documents LoR folder
5)Launch with the LoR icon NOT as an admin.
I want to see if this resolves the ini creation bug for Vista users who do not launch LoR as an admin. If this does, I can scratch this annoying issue off my list. I'll have to do some complex stuff with the install script, but I can deal with that later, first I want to know if this work around works at all. Your help would be much appreciated.
Several times I ran into an OOS error (immediately, not after end turn), when selecting huge stacks (>50 units) with the alt-key. Sadly this is not reproducible after reloading the auto save, but it happens several times during a multi player session.
The Plot List Enhancements mod may do some funny trickery with moving units around when you use ALT to select all units. You could disable PLE on the Unit Icons tab of the BUG Options screen (ALT + CTRL + O) and see if that solves the issue. I'll take a look to see if I can figure out what's happening.
Be forewarned, OOS errors are the toughest to diagnose.
Just saw, that 4.1 is released (still use 4.0), did you change something in PLE for 4.1?
And it works on Vista, too! I am so fabulous.
In BAT 2.1 the Washington LH has pink eyelids. Assuming there's a texture or texture reference missing somewhere.
EDIT: Solved it. The attached file needs to be put in BAT Mod 2.1/Assets/Art/Shared. It wasn't in IG_v2.0.7.FPK.
