Cannot load any lua widget

Post by reivanen »

Recently i have got this problem: the default widgets are loaded, but when i try to turn on _any_ of them, it says cannot load. Even if it just was loaded, i turn i off and on again, i still get the error.

Any ideas?

Code: Select all

Loading: LuaUI/Widgets/gfx_outline.lua
Failed to load: gfx_outline.lua (missing file: LuaUI/Widgets/gfx_outline.lua)
where gfx_outline.lua can be any of the widgets. I have tried reinstalling. Tried running spring as admin in vista.

I have the same problem, and it seems to be CA-related since I tested it with BA and it loads widgets just fine :cry:

Edit: After more testing, the problem doesn't seem to affect latest CA stable release either. Only test build 3921 (didn't try earlier ones, but obviously something must have broken after stable release).

Found out what the problem was: revision 3913 of CA caused this. Just to let anyone know who experiences the same problem.

if affected, start spring with anything but ca revision 3913 or newer, then you can edit the widgets as you like and it remembers them when you quit.
