Thanks Stefan. At least, for now, you have a reasonable workaround.

Yes, works fine except the above issue. Sorry for the rant, but i was really sucked.. [;)]

Otherwise great job with the patch [&o][&o][&o]

I don't know...usually that's when I'm at my most docile, and blissful state, but that's probably not something that should be discussed on a board where younger members might be present...[X(][:-][:D]

Guys,

Reading this thread, something has just occurred to me. Am I right in thinking that the language.dlls provide (amongst other things) the strings for the menu items? If so, this would explain why I keep getting a blank line in the advanced options menu.

Best wishes,

Sic est. the language.dlls provide the menue strings. If you use an old language.dll, say from 3.0.17, you won't have the new options displayed..

The new language dll files should have shipped with the patch.

Shunwick, as you're the only one reporting this issue, do you have any clue as to why do you not seem to have them?

James,

Eurodate.dll. Is there any way that I can update this file? I notice that the members area has a language kit but I don't know if that was updated to the .29 specs.

We haven't touched that in a while. The most recent language dll files were included in the patch, but what's with this Eurodate.dll? That isn't something that we are doing with TOAW III, AFAIK.

James,

Eurodate.dll is on the members download. It is a version of the English language dll but with the date showing in the British format ie. 9/11 = 9 November. It's not a great loss, I just got used to using it.

Edited to add: I just found Ralph's instructions how to modify the engllish.dll to EuroDate.dll. [:)] The download link for the xn resource editor (just in case anyone else is interested) is http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/d10resourceeditor.htm.

Oh...one of those unsupported features that Ralph threw out to the public a while back? Let me know how it goes, with editing it, and whether that solves your problem. Okay?

I use the XN resource editor to switch the MDY into DMY and  / into -

James,

All problems solved. [:)]

Changing the date format to something civilized is simplicity itself following Ralph's instructions. I am not sure how "unsupported" it is supposed to be since it is an official Matrix download. [8D]

Since I now have a fully up-to-date EuroDate.dll would you like it to replace the one on the members downloads page? It is 103kb zipped.

It would seem that I am only one using it. The version on the members download page is now out of date and probably should either be removed or updated to avoid players getting confused.

Yes, go ahead and email it to me. iamjamiam AT yahoo DOT com

Just because it's on the members page, doesn't mean we "support" it. That's where we distribute the unsupported "beta" patches, as well. And, as you notice, you had to build your own. We give you...what's the word I'm looking for...guidance, yes, that's it..."guidance". Support though...well, that's another whole level of...errr...support.

Is it just me, or am I having a white rabbit incoherency moment?

Oh, and thanks!

James, the likeness is spooky.

I have sent the zipped EuroDate.dll to you.

Do I get a badge or something? [:)]

[Matt57_slith]

it is a code language bug, Vulcain

it appears in this way in Unicode, which doesn't recognize our é, è, etc...

is it a way to fix it in a specific file?

[carinhall]

[JAMiAM]

Probably not until the next patch. Sorry...[:(]
