fresh install crashes due to wrong coordinates supplied

Try an old method of inserting text.

The code didn't change at all. So I'll assume some GTK thingy is broken somewhere, and i don't know yet the fix.

Would building it with an older version of GTK help?

My reading of Ryo's statement was that that is what he was doing.

Although the use of gtk 2.4 specific statements by the new gtk2 client could soon make that interesting.

[Ryo]

I'm building using GTK 2.2, iirc.

But something in gtk 2.6 changed, so it doesn't work with that version... Trying to figure out what, but pretty hard, can't find anything on the web.

Besides, I'm using GTK2 in 'broken' mode, as i'm using deprecated things.... So it may be why -.-

Just to chime in that I'm having the exact same -1,-1 problem as well on a fresh install. I'm using the Gtk that was linked from the website. Should I downgrade to 2.2? Does that fix the problem?

I made sure my maps were installed to Crossfire/share/maps and I tried editing the HallOfSelection, but it already had the 7,5 values set.

It could be interesting to try the 2.2 version, indeed - just to make sure it's something related to GTK

So I tried it with Gtk 2.6 (client throws exceptions) and 2.2 (client claims it cannot find Gtk). Perhaps I grabbed a bad install of 2.2. Does anyone have a link to a known working 2.2 installer?
