MathematicallyStupid commented 11 months ago

everytime i start the game it appears this image image

is there anything else to do? i've alreeady install and uninstall the program (being 1.8.1 version this one)

0neGal commented 11 months ago

First of all, version 1.8.1 is not the latest, that'd be 1.8.4, your version is over a month old, however those updates shouldn't contain anything that'd fix this. But I'd still recommend updating, if you download the installer and not the portable .exe then it'll be able to update itself.

As for actually fixing this problem...

If clicking the OK button ("Aceptar" in your case) doesn't fix this, try and see if a file at %APPDATA%\viper.json exists, and delete it if so (typing %APPDATA% in the window that Win+R opens will open the app data folder, in which you can find the viper.json file)

That may or may not fix it, this is an error that I've never been able to reliable reproduce, hence why it even exists to begin with.

This issue is quite similar to #211 and there's a little bit more progress over in that issue, so I'll be closing this one, if you still have problems refer to that, or re-open this issue.
