CharacterTool 1.0.b13 error when unzipping

Post by Moon Knight »

Is anyone getting an error message when unzipping the latest build? I get the following error message:

CRC failed in 'lib\h2-1.1.117.jar'. File is broken.

When I try to start CharacterTool, I get a pop-up dialogue message stating that no settings have been loaded. I can't make a character or load any of the other game settings (Savage Worlds, Hero or GURPS). Anybody have a clue what might be causing the above file error and keeping CharTool from loading? I'm new to the program (I use eTools to build chars) but wanted to try the CharTool since I have the other programs, and those programs all seem to function properly from what I've tested. Thanks in advance.

Were you able to start it using web start? As far as I know, no one is having problems with the zip file.

You should try downloading it again as it seems you have a problem with the download not working.

Re-downloading fixed the boot up error. Now I can't load any of the different game settings. When I tried loading the 3.5 rules, I got the following error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Invalid Property Descriptor Data

I found another post stating that editing the "PropertyDescriptorSet.xml" file might fix that error, but after unzipping the file, there's no .xml file to edit with that filename. Any ideas of what I can do now? The other post stated that these problems should be fixed by the next build. I just hope I don't have to wait that long to try this. Heh. Thanks again.

This is a known bug. I'm trying to get a build out now, but I'm running into a bunch of bugs I need to fix first.
