Re: [Rails-devel] 18EU bug in 1.8.7, recommended to use 1.7.12 for non-1880 games

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

Have you tried the released 1.8.7? I tested it on the released files 
from the sourceforge page.

Both errors show up directly after loading the save files.
However I would prefer not to further put to many resources into 
tracking it down, as it neither occurs in 1.7.12 and most likely not in 2.0.
