I am using the newest SVN checkout, and I have found that the ROTT CD install locks up after typing the install directory and pressing enter. Graphics glitches such as large font characters can be seen across the screen. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I was able to work around it by copying one of the directories off the CD and using it. Just thought I would report this issue so it could be fixed. Thank you.

What has changed in the SVN that would cause this? Thanks.

A lot has changed but this forum is not intended for development bug reports.

although we are happy with the report though.
Please use the dev forum the next time.

Moving it doesn't make it any useful dev report since basically everything is missing. At least he posted the name of the game.

You didn't even state what OS you're using and what dosbox version.

Mountings, installation instructions, why you're using dev builds, how it behaves on the last official release etc.

According to ripsaw it's a game bug that doesn't occur in the patched version.
