| Heya, new poster but i've checked out your site a bit. Just getting into the whole MUD creation scene. Been a MUDder for a long time though.
Anyways...
So i opened the program, and just added an area, and went to save the file [as I always do to start things off]. Problem is, when I saved it, I got an error and had to just end the program [you know, the "send error" or "end" window].
Is this software not supposed to be used in WinXP? Is it a linux program? Any ideas why it's just crashing?

| It works in Windows.
Does this happen with any area? |

| I am using XP and I created a new area and saved it OK.
What version of the Area Editor are you using?
Did you add anything at all before saving it? |

| I just reinstalled windows with SP3.
1. Open Program
2. New area
3. Save As SF.are
then it crashes during the save. The SF file is there, but if i go back in and add anything and save again, it doesn't save that info.
I can't copy/paste the error report unfortunately. Let me know if you have any ideas or if you need something specific from the error report.
Oh, and i'm using 1.34. | | Top |

| Huh.. it just started saving correctly for no reason.
Alright then.. by the way, how would I use version 1.35? do i need t compile it myself? is ther any benefit to using it over 1.34?

Edit: Ok here's the fix:
I basically had to open your sample "manor" file, and then the program ran normally. Until I opened it, the program consistently provided an error message. | | Top |

| | Version 1.35 is just the source code with the spellchecker removed for licensing reasons. So no, I would stick with 1.34. |
