win32 1.2 binary issues

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP 64

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Extract the zip.
2. Run the exe
3. It fails to load the levels and crashes.

Please provide any additional information below.

I fixed the problem by replacing the levels.xml with the one from the 1.2.1
tarball folder. And I had to copy the levels *.png to the levels folder. As
the 1.2 binary only comes with the *.exr's which causes it to crash. The
water levels seem to be messed up as well. I set them around 70 to get it
to approximate the water levels from the old release. (or ponies can run
off the map into the sky)

Hello torath,

Thank you for reporting this issue!

The problem seems to be that I accidentially added an XML version tag while 
editing
the levels.xml file in windows.
I should have tested the whole thing one more time before submitting it. :/

I will make a new build package.

Okay, I hope that this issue is fixed in the new 1.2.1 win32 package.

First the tarball SNAFU, and now this. :(

About PNGs and water-height: I don't know why, but the image loading library i 
am
using uses linear scaling for the intensity values of pngs in linux and 
logarithmic
scaling on windows. This makes the png-heightmaps unusable on windows. 
This is why i am using the (slightly larger) EXR versions of the levels for the 
win32
version.

Please tell me if the new version worked for you.
