Swifty fonts fail to install (2.1.5.2) #174

Closed ryanparsons7 closed 7 years ago

ryanparsons7 commented 7 years ago

With fresh installs of 2.1.5.2, upon installation of Swifty and launching, a cmd window flashes and Swifty does not open.

Font fixer doesn't work to fix the issue, manual installation of the fonts from the directory is needed.

Noticed it too, thanks for making a issue.

Error still present in 2.1.5.3

Since today, when launching Swifty from the desktop (Target: C:\Users\XXXXXXX\AppData\Local\Swifty\Update.exe --processStart "Swifty.exe"), it gets caught in an open-window-close-window loop (loop of four or five windows, each popping up for a splitsecond, saying something about Swifty installing fonts).

My system stays responsive, but the loop of popping windows can only be aborted by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL and logging out as Windows user.

When "manually" launching Swifty 2.1.4.9 (Swifty.exe in Folder app-2.1.4.9) Swifty will start, but it will show "Error - Repo Version mismatch" under our mainserver repository (launching the game with this repo is possible though).

Try running this command. REG DELETE "HKEY_LOCAL_Machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts" /v "FontAwesome (TrueType)" in a admin commandline

FontFixer.zip Special version, runs this and then upload out.txt, please.

Sorry, I was busy over the day. I had already fixed the problem by manually deleting the fonts from my system, so I can't check the suggested fixes. However, members of my group have reported the window-loop error did not occur in 2.1.5.5, so I think it is solved by now. Anyway, thanks for your care and your quick response. Swifty is a great tool and we really appreciate your work!
