While adding a ROM file named "LEGO® Pirates of the Caribbean.iso":

Removing the ® works as a work-around and found this image: http://consolegrid.com/games/7123

I assume you're running Ice from the binary that @scottrice has provided.

@scottrice when did you last update the binaries?

scottrice commented 10 years ago

There should be a version.txt inside the most recent binaries that includes the git hash and the build date.

@salithus did your version of ice come with version.txt? If so, what does it contain?

marcusmoller commented 10 years ago

I haven't tried with symbols such as © ® etc., so perhaps that just didn't get fixed on my commit a few weeks back. I'll look into it ASAP.

scottrice commented 10 years ago

I imagine fixing this will require me to convert all of the strings used in Ice to Unicode strings. Honestly, it's something I should have done from the beginning.

Now that I think about it, I wonder how this will work with SteamShortcutManager and generating shortcuts.vdf. I will have to look into this...
