Title: An error
Post by: sSopris on May 25, 2007, 06:56:12 pm

Yes, yet another newbie has a problem.

I have finished following the instructions for installing GtkRadiant 1.4 from the wiki (http://tremmapping.pbwiki.com/) but whenever I try to start it up I get the following error window:
_______________
Synapse server initialization failed (see console)
GetLastError: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
An unrecoverable error has occured.
Would you like to edit Preferences before exiting Radiant?

Yes              No

Check your paths in synapse.config and the .game files.

This is what I have for my synapse.config (which is located in C:/Program Files/Tremulous/radiant-1.4) file:

Code: [Select]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>
<!-- synapse XML configuration -->
<synapseconfig>
  <client name="core">
    <api name="image">
      tga jpg
    </api>
    <api name="VFS">
      pk3
    </api>
    <api name="shaders">
      quake3
    </api>
    <api name="map">
      mapq3
    </api>
    <api name="eclass">
      def
    </api>
    <api name="surfdialog">
      quake3

  </client>
  <client name="image">
    <api name="VFS">
      pk3
    </api>
  </client>
  <client name="shaders">
    <!-- NOTE: this is a SYN_PROVIDE -->
    <api name="shaders">
       quake3
    </api>
    <api name="VFS">
       pk3

  </client>
  <client name="map">

    <api name="shaders">
      quake3
    </api>
    <api name="VFS">
      pk3
    </api>
  </client>
</synapseconfig>

And this is what I have for my Trem.game (which is located in C:/Program Files/GtkRadiant-1.4/games/) file:

Code: [Select]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>
<game
name="Tremulous"
enginepath="C:/Program Files/Tremulous"
gametools="C:/Program Files/Tremulous>/radiant-1.4/"
basegame="base"
engine="tremulous.exe"
gamename="tremulous"
shaderpath="scripts/"
/>
