Issue after downloading newest snapshot.

by **timmermac** » 27 May 2012, 16:14

I just downloaded the newest snapshot build, and after copying what I usually copy over, I fire Forge up and go to the content downloader, then click on Download LQ Set pics... and it tells me I have 16K+ pics to download. :shock:

I put my existing pics where they usually go, in /res/pics, all in their set folders, so what's going on?

Edit: maybe unrelated, but I'm not sure. I did the import pictures thing, and it's putting them all in in /res/preferences. lolwut?

Edit2: Just to see what would happen, I copied my set folders to /res/preferences to see what would happen... And Forge is recognizing all of the pics I put there. Something is not right here.

Edit3: Forge is also not recognizing quest icons, even after downloading them and restarting Forge.

The preference file has changed, its now located in res/preferences/main.properties. You can edit the file and change the paths to where you keep your images. I bet some of the default paths are messed up in the snapshot "main.properties" file. Chris H. checked in a new version over the weekend.

It looks like someone unintentially pushed their personalized main.properties file. It has happened a few times over the last several years.

I have noticed that with my fix that we still have a problem with the pics_product folder in quest mode. If you click on one of the four non-single card products in the card shop you will get a null error crash report.

I would like to see this fixed before we release the next beta.
