I think we would need more information about/than that.  ;)  If you can reproduce it, try enabling:
DebugMode=true
in glestuser.ini, which should be located in
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\megaglest

The INI should actually be located at
Code: [Select]
C:\Program Files\MegaGlest*(Where * is the version number)

It only appears in the place Ultifd mentioned if you have windows poorly configured.

No, Omega. This was changed a long time ago, I think.  ;) That's glest.ini, which you're not supposed to alter.

Ah, forgive me, I am behind on versions  :o.

Shouldn't it be in a personal folder like GAE though?

You can ask Softcoder on IRC for that. It still is, it's just in appdata and etc :P

Ugh, app data is the worst possible choice though. It's a hidden folder that less than 1% of the population knows about, and will just confuse the hell out of many users...

You're being biased. Where'd you get that info?

I've used windows since 95. I've hated app data since vista. I've disabled UAC since that same time. I've spreaded the hate against the UAC since that same time. ;)

As for the statistics, you should know that 87.342% of all statistics are made up on the spot.



Now, in all seriousness, I am not kidding, app data is evil! It should NEVER be purposely used! It was not meant for users to ever venture into, but instead as a (semi temporary) folder to hold program edited files which were in directories the user does not have access to (thus the reason it is hidden).

I've disabled UAC since the first time I saw it...

Appdata is not evil, it's just annoying in some cases...but not in this case.
