Point Motivator Errors reading XML file

[boyko]

First, I'll thank you mouser -PM'creator  !
I think that these errors

-"I cannot delete or modify entries?",
-"I get an error: could not be loaded by tinyxml lib - Error reading end tag" ...

are because we use non-english language for describe Item-Definitions!
I found: "XML Encoding" and "XML Syntax Rules"

For errors check here and edit your Item-Definitions-file:
XML-Validattor
or open in your browser.

Mouser, is this right? Can you do something to this?
Thank you!

I close PM, edit my Item-Definition-file by this way:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>

("XML Encoding" - The following encoding, will NOT give an error)


Open PM, and error (..could not be loaded by tinyxml lib - Error reading end tag) was gone

Thanks for the post boyko, and welcome to the site!
Looks like you figured out something useful.

I will try to add code to Point Motivator to use the encoding field in saving xml files in future versions.

[mouser]

I have uploaded a beta version that saves files with the encoding set to UTF-16.

It's just the new exe, not a full setup file, so download and unzip and replace your existing exe.

This should let you edit and save the files without encountering the problem.

Thank You, Mouser! 
Now Potnt Motivator works without errors! 

Best wishes!
