| Summary | 0006836: Text generation failed: data\announcement\unretire when reclaiming a fortress - incorrect path separator? | ||||
| Description | After selecting an existing world-gen fortress (as opposed to a player-abandoned one) to attempt to reclaim/Unretire and pressing 'e' to Reclaim, receive the warning: Text generation failed: data\announcement\unretire Press Enter or Esc. Pressing Enter causes segfault (fixed?) Pressing Esc. causes segfault (fixed?) Able to reproduce with the same fortress after each segfault ("Inhabited" fortress); unable to reproduce with other fortresses yet. | ||||

The message still occurs in 0.40.04, although with player-retired fortresses and no segfaults, at least in my experience. It's possible that this is a problem with Windows path separators on non-Windows platforms - the DF executable contains "data\announcement\unretire" on OS X/Linux. (Interestingly enough, this is the only hardcoded path containing "announcement", as far as I can tell.) |
|
|
What is the size and checksum of the "unretire" file in your installation? For reference, the Win32 version's is 322 bytes and has a CRC32 of 4BCDEF28, and my text tools are able to decode it properly. |
|
|
That matches the OS X version (and it can be decoded successfully), so I'm thinking this is a simple problem with using backslashes on non-Windows platforms. |
