Description

When accessing in game help through Help → Help, where the help content should be, there is just a short error like e.g. "Error: The page address is malformed: file:/gamedev.bnp@help_en.html"

With the help of Kaetemi I have tried what happens when I place a simple HTML file in the 'data/' folder and in that case all that happens is that the error changes to e.g. "Error: The page address is malformed: file:/data/help_en.html".

Otherwise the in game browser seems to work — I tested it on E-mail, Forum etc. and the Help window is the only ones that doesn't.

Also 'log.log' doesn't mention any error or warning regarding this bug.

#1 Updated by kervala almost 4 years ago

It seems like local HTML files can't be parsed by libwww because to a crash while passing FILE* as custom pointer.

See this issue #892

Can I help pin-point this bug in any way?

#3 Updated by hook almost 4 years ago

I tried what happens if I install libwww-5.4.0 ...and the anwser is as short as annoying: nothing — the bug persists.
