Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Game crashes when entering in the mine (French translation)

Hi,
I've played a little, and then I managed to get the french translation (Francais.lang).
I then deleted ~/.frictional and start a new game.
All works in the first two mini-levels, with all strings translated.
However, when I enter in the mine, the game crashes after the short introduction.
Quote:terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error'
what(): basic_string::resize
/opt/PenumbraEp1/penumbra: line 9: 22218 Abandon ./penumbra.bin "$@"
If I set language to english before entering in the mine, all works fine, but... Instancied object are saved with their english name/description! and I'm not going to switch between french and english all the time...

Any solution?

Can you provide a backtrace of the crash? and attach your hpl.log?
Also, is this a user-contributed translation? or the *official* translation from a Windows boxed set? (So I can test here)

Sorry, I didn't manage to get a core.
Here is the hpl.log, although I doubt it's useful.
Yes, I use the *official* translation from a Windows boxed set.

No news about it? That's annoying...

Well the hpl.log isn't saying much so no advice to give really. This is not a supported feature by us so it's not really a priority issue, sorry!

Here is the backtrace... Not sure it'll help. I'm bzipping the coredump, and see if it's not too big...

is that the backtrace from the core dump?
it doesn't provide much useful info. make sure you ran
gdb ./penumbra.bin core.#

Also if you goto the mac support forums there is a "fan made" French tranlation that you can try.

Strange, there is a lot more output now... I've probably not loaded penumbra.bin correctly...
Here is a new backtrace, I hope it'll be helpful.

Remove all emphasis from the Francais.lang file and it will work. :-)
