I know we are expecting another release soon, but I think it would still be a good idea to get a corrected windows release out for 1.1.4. I think it reflects poorly on the Wesnoth project that we know the current windows version won't install correctly and haven't fixed it yet. Telling people to change the name of the dll was reasonable yesterday, but we shouldn't expect people to have to do that until the 1.2 betas/rcs become available.

It is a development release, so people downloading it should expect a bit of DIY.

(they *should* stick with the stable release if its too much to ask).

And as it states on the front page, we are lucky to have a Windows version at all, seeing as its up to a volunteer (who has already apologised for the minor error) that compiles it.

Anyway, thank you - everything seems to be running alot smoother than the last one.

Yeah, there may be glitches, but it still makes us look bad when we can't fix what is essentially a typo in the installer.

What if we have both Python23.dll and Python24.dll

Do we still rename Python23.dll to python24.dll to replace it?

No, just keep it as it is. You are fine with that.

Here is a fixed version of the windows installer, hopefully now without any DLL problems

Cool, thanks a bunch Yogi!

A reminder to windows users-- Make a fresh install, don't just overwrite an old version.

I downloaded 1.1.4a and just renamed the DLL - should I be redownloading this one for the new Python24.dll or are both of the versions the same, but just with different names?

Well i need to elaborate on that:
No, they are not the same DLL's. I am not sure if it even works by renaming the DLL but the only way to find out about that is writing your own python ai

. It's the only place where this DLL gets really used, everything else is not touched.

There was a reason though, why i decided to replace that DLL. I read an interesting blog lately about python24 depending on msvcr71.DLL from microsoft (yes, exactly, some of you know that dll by now, don't you). The DLL itself does not seem to be a problem regarding the license to distribute it but to make full use of it you seem to need license restricted stuff. The author of the blog suspected that this was an unintended flaw that nobody noticed when the deal with microsoft was made.

Anyway, for wesnoth it does not make any difference if we use python23 or python24. So i decided to stay on the safe side and go back to python23. It does not suffer from any potential license problems and it does not need msvcr71.dll as well (so no need to deliver that one anymore).

But i forgot to change the library while compiling and so wesnoth still expected python24.dll to be there

. I fixed that in 1.1.4a and that is the reason it is delivered with python23.dll now. And most likely will stay that way

.

sorry for trouble
uploaded the files to the wrong path
thx for the hint, files should be there as soon as my provider will update the webspace, i guess in a few minutes

edit:
something seems to be wrong with my webspace and the redirections
try
http://people.freenet.de/black.shadow/g ... th-dev.tbz
http://people.freenet.de/black.shadow/g ... th-svn.tbz
this should work

If I have already downloaded the windows 1.1.4 exe and have renamed python23.dll to python24.dll is it still necesarry to download (and install) 1.1.4a?
