when i attempt to run my gamebox i get...

Code: Select all

Error of type XmlException&#58; Name cannot begin with the '<' character. hexadecimal value0x3C. Line 6, position 2.
thus far i'm simply wanting to get it loaded with just the game board before i continue on with the bulk of the work.

my game-box.xml looks like this..

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<game-box
	name="Arkham Horror"
	description="Arkham Horror Description"
	startup-scenario="TestScenario.zts"
	icon="icon.bmp">
	<map name="Board" image-file="AHBoard.jpg" />
</game-box>


and TestScenario.zts ....

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<game
	game-box="Arkham Horror"
	scenario-name="Test"
	scenario-description="this is a test"
	<layout board="AHBoard" />
</game>
any help. please?

Hi Twistedbard,

You need to add a ">" to a line in your TestScenario.zts file:

scenario-description="this is a test">

Regards, Bill.
