AutoHarp has stopped working <RESOLVED>
« on: April 30, 2014, 02:00:58 PM »
I have just downloaded the Autoharp 1.05 from RPGNOW, together with the Fantasy and SF rules. I can create a fantasy character with no problem but cannot get the SF part to work. I get as far as the second wizard screen (choosing profession etc) and then when I press next I get a "AutoHarp has stopped working error".

I have tried a clean install, with just the demo databases and the full databases and I get the same error. I have even tried it on both my machines (Windows 7 x64 and x86) but with no luck. I have attached the screenshot.

Anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

I can recreate this. Looking into it. Sorry that this got past me. :(

edit: I have found the error and have patched it. What I will do is re-send Nicholas the patch and hopefully it will go out soon. I will patch this as 1.0.5.1. Again sorry for missing this. It should have been caught.

I have written up a patch for windows. I will work on the Ubuntu patch and have it up by tomorrow. You can find the patch here...

https://sourceforge.net/projects/autoharpsuite/files/?

Here are instructions for installing the patch

1) Make sure you have installed version 1.0.5 first.
2) Download and run 1.0.5.1 PATCH from SourceForge
3) Install in the same path location as 1.0.5.0

This patch will only update the files that are needed. This is why you need the original installation present. This patch updates the AutoHARP application, the About.html file and it also replaces the config.xml file in Harp Sci-Fi as the config.xml file in the original install is wrong.

In the future I will put up all PATCH files on SourceForge. If I have to patch a database file then that has to go through Nicholas and ICE. However since this was an application issue we can patch with an application patch.

I recommend that everyone download and install the patch as the issue could surface in Harp Fantasy as well.

Nicholas, might there be a way to inform those who bought it about this patch?

Again sorry for the hic-up.
