Hello

Today I tried to compile and run VCMI. I followed this instruction wiki.vcmi.eu/index.php?title=Installation_on_Linux. Compilation was sucessful, but when I tried to run it, I got following error. Does anyone know where the problem is?

Make sure that DATA_DIR/config (usually /usr/share/vcmi/config) is identical to SOURCE_DIR/config.
Copy it or make a symlink to be sure.

Have you installed vcmi from 0.9 source package or from current svn?

I’m using SVN version. You was right. My DATA_DIR/config and SOURCE_DIR/config was different. Now everything works fine.
Thanks for help.
