Automation not starting (XML error)

Hello,

I have a problem starting automation. whenever I start the game i get the error: "The XML-file (3612, 73) contains an error". (I hope I translated it right, my error is in Dutch).

I've been playing it for I while and it worked great! Then here was a long time I did not run it, and the first time I tried to run it, the launcer got stuck and I got this error. I've deleted everything, and installed it again, but I still got this error.

It would be great if someone could help me out!

Heyya!

At what point does the game crash out of loading? It sounds like you don't even get to see the launcher window at this stage.
Are you running the standalone version or the Steam version?

I do get to see the launcher, then it says it is checking for updates, that is the part where it gets stuck and I get this error. I use the standalone version (demo)

Re: Automation not starting (XML error)

Can I get you to download this file, send it to me in an email: http://game.automationgame.com/manifest.xml

I am wondereing if something strange is going on, and you are getting a bad cached file from your ISP or something. As the error is about that file being corrupt.

Re: Automation not starting (XML error)

Oke, thanx.

A strange thing happened right now. last time I tried to run it did not work, but now, a few weeks later I tried to run it again, and it works fine....

Thank you all for putting time in this:)
