[Bug] User account in windows

When you have some foreign caracters in your account name

from Demigod Forums

A friend of mine had a bug and we took some time to solve it.

His main user account name in windows is "Propriétaire".

So, when he launched the game and tried to play (it was three days before the 2D), he had a error message from the game,

telling that the game can't create the profile path.

So we tried to change his account name in windows but it doesn't change the first path in documents and settings.

Finally we had to make a new windows user without any "é" not "à" or "è" and so on to make him able to play.

Remark : Under "Propriétaire" account, the game didn't save any profile or game name.. logic, but we created the directory manually

and after this, the game managed to record this, but he still wasn't able to play (loading screen before the game neer stops).

The files were created but the game wasn't able to read them, or something like this.

This is a known bug, I think 2D was supposed to have some localization fixes, but if not, rest assured they are aware of it and are working on it.  Keep letting them know though, because they need to know if it is solved or not.

Ok ok, I haven't looked all [Bug] posts (even if almost). So we'll try with other account with the 2D and let know.

[EDIT] : Now it works fine, great :p

Good to hear it now works.  Never an issue for me, but a number of people had complained about it and I thought I noticed that in the release notes.  Good to see one more bug get squashed.
