os_path.h(48) error? The game can't run.

[Ake]

I have compiled Alpha 9 and the latest source code (May 9) according to build instructions, but the game encounters the same error and can't run.

When I run "./test" via command line, there is an error related to os_path.h(48). The following contents are the details of the error.

Running 275 tests...........................................................................os_path.h(48): Assertion failed: "(unsigned)wstring[i] <= (unsigned)UCHAR_MAX"

I assume you've put the game in a path that contains non-ASCII characters. r11839 should fix that now.

Thank you for your help!

Yes, the game is placed in a folder with a Chinese name. The problem is solved with the latest source code. Test is passed, and the game runs well.

According to build instructions, the latest source code is gotten via the command "svn co http://svn.wildfireg...ublic/ps/trunk/ 0ad". However, it will download both of source code for Linux and Windows and the downloads are too large. How to only download the latest source code for Linux?

The source is cross platform, so the windows source is the same as the linux source except for a very small number of files. The main size comes from the data files for the game not the code.

OK, I see. It's a good developing way for saving much effort and time.
