Hello, I have a problem that is frustrasting me since yesterday. I extracted the Legends Viewer .zip file into both my game folder and a new folder, and problems persists in both of these. Whenever I start the .exe, I get a loading circle next to my cursor for a second or so and then nothing happens. I tried restarting, reinstalling to no avail.

I can look into it if you upload your zip-file.

Sure, how do I do that?

Did you use LegendsViewer 1.19.10?
If you used the most recent version of Legends Viewer and the error still happens, then please upload your exported files to the Dwarf Fortress File Depot (DFFD).

The files that I need to test things are:

Code: [Select]

regionx-xxxxx-xx-xx-legends.xml
regionx-xxxxx-xx-xx-legends_plus.xml
regionx-xxxxx-xx-xx-world_history.txt
regionx-xxxxx-xx-xx-world_map.bmp
regionx-xxxxx-xx-xx-world_sites_and_pops.txt

Oh, I think I misunderstood you, sorry. I thought you have problems when loading your exported XMLs, but you can not get LegendsViewer to run at all.
What Operating System do you use?
Do you have .NET 4.0 and Internet Explorer 11 installed?

[Oxidus]

I'm using Windows 8.1. I already have installed the .NET 4.0 and yes I do have IE 11. The thing that baffles me is that it worked before, but now it doesn't.

You can try to find an error message in the Windows Event Viewer, otherwise I have no idea what could cause this.

I am currently on vacation, without access to a computer.
Work on the updated version of Legends Viewer will start on Sunday, but there are already some unreleased features and bugfixes that I implemented in the last few month. 

I am excited to see all the cool new additions the update brought to legends mode!

[Lovecraft]

Thank you so much for this utility! I love browsing legends and seeing the history of the world unfold and this makes it so much less time consuming. You rock!

<snip because I was tired when posting this and embarrassed myself>

[Bumber]

Will this get updated to the new version?

Just wanted to take the time to say that i really appreciate the work yourself, and others have put into these 3rd party tools.
I think for me and a lot of new players, it would be a lot harder to enjoy the game without them!

I got into Dwarf fortress only 6 months ago and have used your tool a whole bunch already. one of the best parts of this game is the simulation, and it's SO hard to view that information normally.
(I like my eyes, thank you very much)

Anyways, seeing as i've had this forum account for a little while, figured i should use it for something worthwhile.

Thanks, always happy to hear that people enjoy it! 

Toady put really a lot work in world generation and the intrigue system with its plots and schemes. Not only that, there are lots and lots of new events, and every one of them is a little bit like detective work. Finding out which properties are tied to which text snippets in legends mode is not always that easy. 
I already implemented a huge amount of content from the 0.47.01 release, but everytime I generate a new world I find more...
And now 0.47.02 is out and fixes lots of issues with corrupted XML structure and unidentifiable events! The first export I made in this new version, fixed and revealed almost as many new things as I finished from the 0.42.01 release, haha.

Sounds like you're having fun! 
Thanks for all the effort, Kromtec!
