[Linux] Editor doesn't export properly

[edgleyUK]

--> Project created in a folder with no special caracters and exported in a folder with no special caracters
= Crash AFTER character creation.

--> Project created in default folder (with spaces) and exported in a folder with no special caracters OR default
= Crash In the "Choose Menu" BEFORE character creation.

It's not quite the same for me -- it makes no odds where I export it from or what the name of the file is etc (so regardless of special characters), I always get the crash *after* character creation.

The error message is the same as yours in any cases ...

Software Failure, Error: File not found: mod_assets/scripts/init.lua

I have no problems of broken filesize though, in you case, the problem must be deeper.

No matter what I do to export it, I still end up with pretty much the same content of the file. Opening it in nano gives:

Code: Select all

GRA2^A^@^@^@����^\^@^@^@^@^@^@^@:^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^G^@^@^@testdun^F^@^@^@edgley^G^@^@^@Testing^R^@^@^@mod_assets/scripts

So the author, dungeon name and description are all exported, but after it gets to the scripts folder, it doesn't appear to include anything else.

Anyway I still guess, ( wildly ??? ) this is a path problem.
Your binary is in "/mnt/games/grimrock/" and mine is in "/home/me/GAMES", ie: not standard (root) install paths.
I installed my version as standard user (not root). Perhaps you did the same.

Yep -- installed as standard user. Will try installing a clean copy as root when I get home, but I don't hold out much hope for it and it is far from being ideal.

At least i can binary dump my .dat file with the od command :
My dungeon is description is "ffffff", I see also "mod_assets/scripts", But no idea with GRA2 ?

Code: Select all

me@home:~/.local/share/Almost Human/Legend of Grimrock/Dungeons$ od -c zz.dat

Pretty much identical for me -- description is "Testing":

Thanks for the reply!

Bump.

Anyone else have any suggestions?

No crashes - just nothing exports when pressing the export menu

Running Ubuntu 13.10
Legend of Grimrock 1.3.7

EDIT : Got it working.

For future reference I had to make sure the export file was explicitly named including the .dat file suffix. File is exported to ${HOME}\.local\share\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock\Dungeons.

Custom Dungeon is available from that location.

I thought I would close up this thread. The problem was that it didn't include subfolders when it compiled to the *.dat file.

Corrected with the 1.3.7 release. http://www.grimrock.net/2013/05/28/the- ... -on-steam/
