Tribes no problem

The cause of this has been a missing ark_data.json file, the newest version will report this as "Unable to load data file ./ark_data.json"

How to get ark_data.json

[Qowyn]

Every release includes the current version (at the time of release) in the ark-tools.zip and ark-tools.7z files. The newest version (and translated versions) can be downloaded here: https://ark-tools.seen-von-ragan.de/data/

Thanks very much

Hi, I think now that the json file is not in the release zips, you should improve the error message again, saying one needs to run updateData (not everyone reads the whole doc :))
