dajt, I'm not a Windows user, but could you put up a notification @ berlios that you uploaded a new file? Not everyone visits the boards (shame on them) but subscrbe to berlios notifications...
Had no problem running with ooliteinstall-335 , but the subsequent updates keep crashing on my PC
I've recently upgraded my PC , as of now have a new windows xp installation (with service build 2) and though version 335 works for me , gameplay has gone all funny/ jerky . What a bummer , oolite is a cracking game .
Well , I removed the NVIDIA drivers that were installed as part of my new windows configuration and re-installed my older VGA drivers - with a positive result . Build 335 is working perfectly for me again . The later builds still don't work for me , but as build 335 works ok i'm well happy !

If and when you try the next installer, if it doesn't work please post the c:\program files\oolite\stderr.txt file as that might contain a clue as to what the problem is.
Hi David ,
I tried running OOliteInstall-380 once again , with a view to obtaining the error report . I'm no techie , so here's the report and I trust that you will interpret it much better than I possibly can !
regards ,
Chris

The only thing that looks a bit strange there is the 2nd last line. 800 x 578? If it is trying to create that in full screen mode things might go a bit strange.
That's funny , because i'm running oolite 335 in full windows mode - it defaults to that of course . In fact when running oolite 335 , on selecting F2 key and then selecting 'windowed mode' , I have now discovered that the game effectively crashes + hangs - a window box appears with 'SDL app' in top left corner .
This is actually the error that occurs straight away , when I execute version oolite 380 . I simply cant get to the point of being able to select 'windowed' mode or 'full screen' option etc
. The later builds still don't work for me , but as build 335 works ok i'm well happy !
