envisagedOne: This is not in the NEWS.txt provided with the build...

Tomaso: The Win32 porter hasn't said explicitly, but the team is fairly sure that this is due to the omission of the tony.dat from the embedded engine datafiles in the Win32 build. See this message in the scummvm-devel mailing list:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/mess ... d=31004247

I wasn't referring to the news.txt. I was referring to the "View the ChangeLog to see the latest updates of ScummVM" link on the daily snapshots page

We added the missing Tony.Dat file.

Most of the ports already had it, the Windows port didn't.
That should be the only modification.

Thanks.

I see that there's another silent update, dated July 9th.
..Any news on this one?

Thanks, eriktorbjorn.
I'm familiar with the problem..
I've been getting that error myself sporadically (under WinXP32/SP3).
Good to know that it's been sorted out.

commit cd8c702544fe75d333fa4fa7280f891f9fef7ed6
BUILD: Disable data path in mingw builds, since it was using a hard coded path. All external data files are stored in the Windows executable file anyway.
