i found the same error on the homepage and installed arial fond and arial black fond but the error remains. what can i do ?

[Fiskbit]

Sorry you're having trouble with the game! It seems that you have the same problem as in this thread, where the game expects you to have the Arial font and you don't, so it crashes. You'll need to download and install Arial from a site such as http://web.nickshanks.com/fonts/microsoft-core-web-fonts.

I hope that helps; if you continue to have trouble, please let us know!

The Error remains with the same error message =(

That's bizarre. The error appears to be identical to the other (complaining about the Regular style for Arial, and having an identical stack trace), so I'm not particularly sure what else you could try to fix that. Chris and Keith (x4000 and keith.lamothe) will be by later today; they're more knowledgeable about this than I and should be able to offer more help.

Sorry again; I hope we can get this working properly for you soon!

Maybe i start the Arialfond in the wrong place? where should i place the setup exe before i install it?

[x4000]

The simplest thing is to look in your control panel, under where it has a Fonts entry.  If there is an Arial font there, it needs to be deleted because it is corrupt (the installer may have skipped replacing it, thinking it was already okay).  Then once the old copy of Arial is out, the new one can be put in by running that installer.  If for some reason the installer does not work, you can download the Arial font from a variety of locations on the Internet (all over, really), and then simply drag and drop the Arial font into that folder.

Hope that helps!
