Hi Tom.
I knew there was a difference betwene ascii and none ascii machines, but I
wasn't certain if this would be the reason for jd crashing or something else
which is why I bought it up on list.
Beware the grue!

Hi Dark,
I don't know what is causing the crash for sure much less a solution,
but I can tell you that the ascii character code and the Japanese
character set are completely incompatible. That's why computer
programmers came up with unicode. Unicode, which is the default
character encoding from Windows 2000 onwards, includes not just the
standard Western European characters but support for Japanese,
Chinese, Hebrew, Greek, etc character sets as well. Basically, it is a
universal character code that allows you to support any language and
system of writing imaginable. The ascii characters are more or less
limited to standard English characters such as a through z, 0 through
9, and a few special characters like the pound sign, periods, commas,
tabs, spaces, etc. Not enough to support very unusual characters such
as Japanese or chinese characters. However, that shouldn't have
anything to do with Judgment day crashing.

Hi.
We've recently had a question on the audiogames.net forum from a Japanese
chap called Yukio who's attempting to run Judgement day on windows 7.
Apparently he gets a "runtime error 6 overflow" message.
I suggested he download and install winkit, sinse that installs
dependencies
and often fixes windows 7 compatibility issues, but apparently this
hasn't
helpd as yet.
I did wonder however if it might also be a language thing, sinse I'm not
sure a Japanese version of windows would run standard ascii files the
same
way as one using the roman alphabet, though whether this has anything to
do
with errors I don't know, ---- though of course it might be something
entirely different.
so, I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts.
Btw, yukio has apparently E-mailed Liam as well.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
