Admins, would it be possible to post a copy of Loader 4.6.7 for us affected users to use while you're preparing the fix ?
You may be able to recover an earlier version of the loader from your own system. If you go to the folder where your loader resides (normally in your public or common folders) you may find a SimSigLoader.exe.bak file. You could try renaming the existing SimSigLoader.exe file as something like SimSigLoader.new then further renaming the SimSigLoader.exe.bak file as SimSigLoader.exe.

No guarantees about this method and whether it may harm anything you already have saved but it might work.

If that works you will be prompted to update your files every time you open the loader - you can still use the updater to get new or re-released sim or TT files without updating your loader if you use one of the advanced options.

V4.6.11 is available via the Check for Updates button. This addresses the load/save problem of Windows ignoring application-specified localisation settings - basically outputing a comma instead of a decimal point in decimal numbers. It addresses it in two ways: firstly, before trying to convert a string in the saved file to a decimal number it replaces a comma if found with a decimal point. Secondly, when saving, it uses a new method which is not subject to localisation issues.

It's been tested okay on a French locale with the saved files in this thread and elsewhere, but I would appreciate feedback, good or bad.

Geoff,

I will go off-line for the weekend, but I can check with Hungarian on Monday or Tuesday afternoon.

Thanks very much Geoff, it works fine on load and save.

The withdrawal symptoms were getting serious ;-).
