Bug reporting thread

[Sailor Star Dust]

I've had a completed fan game I made back in 2010 (was hoping to post it here but I've kept on forgetting).

The only file for the game I have anymore is the final product, the executable application, but selecting either that or the Novel's Player results in an "Unable to open __.nvz" message. I have the 2 necessary .dll files (fmodex, d3dx9_37) in the same folder, so I'm not sure what the problem is? Bummed out that I can't look at the finished product anymore after so many years.

Thanks for the help!

EDIT: Apparently I had the .nvz file itself in a different folder, once I placed that in the correct location everything worked like a charm.

Why can not I run the compiled game?
[Error] Unable to load project

I'm assuming folks still use the forums, so...

I'm using Version 0.8.9 but I still get this "Fixed crash bug when using the Show Menu action" error everytime I work on this new VN of mine. In other words, the program itself keeps crashing so I have to keep reloading.

If it's any consolation to you, I'm getting the same thing.
Here's my work-around.
After I click on "show menu" in the Action Catalog and then select the Menu style, I save the nov file and close Novelty. I then reopen Novelty and key in the phrase and events for each menu option.

We'll probably have to live with the bug, as ErikB hasn't logged onto the site since May of 2014.

I constantly save as I work on my new project, so no major worries. The bug also seemed to stop doing it after awhile which is nice.

I've only noticed (something in all versions, I think) whenever the program auto-saves, reloading the saved program results in having to click each page one by one to view the page content (otherwise it looks blank). Slight annoyance but still strange.
