I opened one of my games the first time after quite a few months and got this error message:
Quote from: Adventure Game Studio
An error occurred whilst trying to load your game. The error was:
Invalid script name; name must only include letters, numbers and underscores: EXPLO_groß
If you cannot resolve the error, please post on the AGS Technical Forum for assistance.
I don't recall changing anything the last time I had the game open.. so maybe the newest AGS version has a problem with "ß"? The problem is that I can't open it anymore..
Maybe your explosion is too big :D
No really, I remember a while back someone had the same problem, CJ removes extended ascii support in the file names for some reason. I don't know if there is a fix, be you could try to rename the file.

There is no file with that name and I don't know where I used that name. As I said I can't open the game anymore and thus can't change any name..
There are probably easier solutions, but here's one thing you can try:
1. Backup your game.
2. Download the source code of the editor, go to Utilities.cs, comment line 82, compile & run it.
3. The game will hopefully load fine, rename the bad script and save.
4. Now open it with the official version.
Thanks, I'll try that out.
Or you can just batch replace EXPLO_groß with EXPLO_gross in the XML file. With any text editor that could handle it. Better do your backups before though.
Many thanks, FSi, it works like a charm! I was a bit lost using the visual c thingy anyway..
