wrong WFUT address, empty list on char type
  • I installed sear_win32_setup-0.6.3.1 under Windows XP and tried to connect to a server.

    The following problems appeared:

    1. the servers were not listed, an empty list was shown instead
    Entering the address of an active server help though.

    2. the Character Type dropdown list was empty, which hinders me on creating a char.

    I tried several active servers, always the same problem.
    btw, same problem appeared when using ember instead of sear.

    Please advise.


    Debugging info:

    After starting sear.bat, it complains that is cannot find wfut.xml at the worldforge server:
