unkown d1 hog size

by **Vander** » Sat Mar 28, 2015 12:18 pm

Hello, I installed the latest D1x-rebirth, but it's telling my my descent.hog file size is incorrect. Is this a common error? It works with an older version of d1x-rebirth-gl.

I don't think I'll be finding my D1 disks to reinstall.

Install and run retro.

It's usually not a problem. What that usually means is that you're running from an odd hog, like the Destination Saturn one or the mac one or who knows what else. Just make sure it's not the demo hog, and you should be ok.

The error silently goes to a log file in Retro without bothering you. In Rebirth, it's a dialog box, which is annoying.

If you saw this error during installation it means that your hog file isn't one of the ones officially recognized by Rebirth. It shouldn't be a problem, but if you notice anything strange, this may be the cause of it.
