Hi Macio,

Your XML has a Polish(?) character in it. Others have reported similar problems when using them - try deleting it...

Regards, Bill.

still not working

i discovered that when im downloading working gamebox, unzip it and zip into .ztb file on my own, then the game isnt working. Problems with winrar? Any clue?

[macio]

Shame on me. I was using .rar format, not .zip... Thanks for help!

[Bill Barrett]

You also need to insert the End Tag: </dice-hand> on a new line preceding: <dice-hand type="D10">

Regards, Bill.

Another question. Why the countersheet do not appear? Even its name (but there is a little bookmark near the bookmark of map, but without a name).

Current xml look

                front-left="0" front-top="0" front-right="575" front-bottom="178"
	        back-left="0" back-top="0" back-right="575" back-bottom="178" />	


</counter-sheet>
</game-box>

I think that's because your counter sheet is called "Pilkarze" (upper case starting letter) in your game-box file, but "pilkarze" (lower case) in your scenario file.

Try changing them so that they're exactly the same...

Thank you!:)

another - how to make back side of counters reverse (as in mirror)? Now first counter from left (on front sheet) have on its back the first counter from the right (on back sheet)...they doesnt fit

[Bill Barrett]

No problem

ZunTzu "expects" that your counter sheets are laid out as "real" ones would be (mirrored). The simplest solution is to make them that way in a graphics editor.

lot of work, i cant just flip it because text on counters would look like mirrored...
so, im going on - where i can find some command list for card/card decks/shuffling etc?

[Bill Barrett]

No, only the positions of the counters need to be mirrored.
