DECOMPRESS_BIFF failing to find a file in BGEE #159

Closed burner1024 closed 4 years ago

burner1024 commented 4 years ago

I have BGEE on a case-insensitive fs, and running linux native WeiDU. If I understand correctly, it doesn't need linux.ini, so there is none. Here's the relevant log:

For some reason it's not checking data dir:

$ find . -iname chasound.bif
./data/CHASOUND.BIF

So it's probably a bit late at this point, but you do need an INI file specifying the BIF paths. It's not about case-sensitivity, but about unix-style paths. I don't know what's going on with that first place WeiDU is looking in your log, but it never looks for chasound.bif in ./data/. I can possibly add some more/better defaults.

Cool, I'll leave it up to you then. I have it working well with linux.ini now.

WeiDU will now look for biffs in . as a last resort (and consequently finding biffs at ./data/foo.bif)
