Title: Error on startup. Tried Re-install
Post by: Siccity on November 15, 2012, 10:28:15 am

Hey,
I get an error every time trying to start up Anteworld-0.7.12.3275

Code: [Select]

unknown exceptionError reading eng.cfg: 26 : engine_config - member variable: proj not defined
proj = 0,
   ^
It worked fine yesterday, but then the game crashed. For some reason when the game crashes i cannot ctrl+alt+del or alt+f4 or anything. The screen just goes black.

I restarted my computer and reinstalled the game. Now i'm getting the error.

Seems you are trying to run an older version (0.7.11 branch, did you use the same data dir for new and old versions?), but the configuration files were already modified by the new one and the old one does not recognize them.

You can delete the eng.cfg and world.cfg files, but I guess you'll find out that the version you are trying to run is older and will try to update.

Thank you, that worked. It's now downloading new version.
By the way, does the engine generate a world like Minecraft or does it have a default heightmap to build from?

90m resolution heightmap of actual earth measurements. Then the middle bits are generated.
