OTF File Fails To Load From Data.zip

[gamecreator]

I downloaded a free font with an otf extension.  Everything works fine in my project.  However, when I try to publish it, the font fails to load from data.zip file.

I made sure to add otf to Include Files and I unchecked "Only include used files," just in case.

Font is here: http://www.1001fonts.com/seshat-font.html

Does Leadwerks actually load OTF?

[gamecreator]

I wasn't sure it would but yeah, seems to work fine outside of the data file.  Not the end of the world for me.  I can switch to a different font or just leave the font unpackaged (it's free even for commercial).  Just bringing it to your attention.  (Again, I hesitate bringing things like this up because I don't want to take your time away from what I consider more important, like the character controller slope jump issue.)

But it's funny that Leadwerks does things you don't even know about. 

[gamecreator]

Damn.  This may be a bigger issue.  There are other things that don't load from data.zip file that should, like textures.  Investigating...

It seems like loading from data.zip doesn't work any more but I could also be doing something wrong.

Project file: https://www.mediafire.com/?b2at84k3380jqc9

I started a new project, added a new Menu folder under Material and put a tex file there.  Everything runs fine from Visual Studio and the exe.  But if you Publish it as standalone, the load fails.  Here's the test code.

#include "Leadwerks.h"

using namespace Leadwerks;

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
	Leadwerks::Window* window = Leadwerks::Window::Create();
	Context* context = Context::Create(window);
	World* world = NULL;

	//Load a texture
	Texture* texture = NULL;
	texture = Texture::Load("Materials/Menu/arrowright.tex");
	if(texture==NULL)
	{
		MessageBoxA(0, "Texture load failed.", "Error", 0);
		exit(1);
	}

	while(true)
	{
		if(window->Closed() || window->KeyDown(Key::Escape)) return false;

		context->SetBlendMode(Blend::Alpha);
		context->SetColor(0,0,0,0);
		context->Clear();

		//Display the texture on screen
		context->SetColor(1,1,1,0);
		context->DrawImage(texture,0,0);

		context->Sync();  
	}
	return 0;
}

Why would loading it from data.zip fail?  (I tried both include and not include unused files.)

[Josh]

Please check the default main() code.  It loads all zip files found in the game directory before starting.

Ok.  That's new.  That wasn't needed before (or I just never saw it back when we were using App.cpp/App.h).  Thanks.

[gamecreator]

And going back to the original problem, with that code included, otf does load and work from data.zip.  So this can be closed.  Thanks.
