Nice. It could be just me ofc, but I get a nice message box but nothing seems to download.

FYI there is a crash on exit.

thanks, thats fixed with 0.173, crash on exit is investigated.

last release was to long ago, so such bugs were somehow expected

I autoupdated to 0.173 from 0.169, when i start the new version I get a lot of "XX flag not found!" message boxes. Let me see if it does the same if i just download the zip...

Edit: same messages. They do stop after the initial burst of them. This is in a portable install of 95.0, on windows.

Edit: Also the lobby crashes when I try to go to Spring settings? Maybe the configs from the older lobby version are messing it up?

can't reproduce this. are you on logged onto a different server?

crash should be fixed with 0.174, also the crash on exit.

this is before logging in to any server
edit: maybe the fact that there are no languages to select has something to do with it? (even though there is a full locale directory)

ah, great, settings work!

found something funky with the side icons. could be BA's problem, but i don't remember it looking this way in 0.169 lobby

language selection should be fixed with 0.175. do you have users in groups?

broken side-icon is already known, but low priority bug: https://github.com/springlobby/springlobby/issues/36

I updated and it inverted my mouse (zoom direction). I cant change it anymore, it is so weird.

Did someone get the same problem?

what does "can't change" mean? springlobby pre 0.173 called spring.exe with a "--config" parameter, this isn't used any more as it was difficult to find out, which config file is used. so its very likely a different config file is used in your case.

if changing it in the GUI Spring settings doesn't work, I'd suggest deleting any configs you have sitting around in AppData/Local/ or on linux, in ~/.spring/ . For me, Spring was loading those as "additional" config files after loading the one in Documents/My Games/Spring/ or in linux ~/.config/spring/, which I think is where the GUI Spring settings is reading and writing.

I updated SL and afterwards the language was set to Czech. Luckily the dropdown menu's are still partially in english on that :p

oops, fixed with next update. note: this will also reset language to system default.

Excellent work guys! The multi-engine support is very seamless and works perfectly! Testing new builds is now easier than ever.

Preferences saves my chat font & size, yet does not apply it to chat.

0.177 should fix most problems, kudos go to baracoder!

with 0.177?

The team icons are fine but the lobby doesn't seem to see my maps(to generate thumbnails) anymore. For some reason I have riverglade and that is it.

*edit*

hmm it seems to update the images and the map can be selected via the thumbs view after I have loaded in the DDL.

Chat font: the settings seem to only apply to timestamp part, not the text. Example attached (chat font is set to Courier in preferences).

That's with 0.177, win7 64bit.

with the latest lobby version when trying to host a new game on a local SpringLS I get:

[00:52:02] ** Server ** Failed to host new battle on server. Invalid command format or bad arguments
