Hi everyone. (I apologize in advance for any grammatical errors - English isn't my native language)
I'm trying to compile Free Orion on my machine, but I'm running into a weird problem:
I've downloaded the sdk and extracted the file to a new directory. However, when I try to run the "update" svn command, the client just crashes with "unhanded exception" error, and I've tried it with 3 different clients. (I'm running windows XP, if that matters.)
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any useful logs or events to help figure this out.
I'm unfamiliar with SVN, so that might be a usage problem. I'd appreciate some help.

Re: Problem updating SDK from SVN
That's a strange and inconvenient result.
Do you have any firewall software running? That might be interfering with SVN.
Could you try checking out a fresh copy of the code into a new directory, rather than updating the SDK contents? The source can be checked out from

Re: Problem updating SDK from SVN
Thanks. I've tried to do that, with more or less the same result: It d/l some files, then crashes when trying to d/l "FreeOrion\Empire\EmpireManager.cpp"
Since it d/l some files, I don't think it's a communication problem.

Re: Problem updating SDK from SVN
There is a SVN CleanUp command you could try...
Otherwise, try deleting all the directories within FreeOrion other than .svn (if it's present). These should be named AI, cmake, combat, deafult, etc. Then try updating again.
Have you used SVN to checkout any other codebases? Were any of them hosted on sourceforge? If so, did it work?

Re: Problem updating SDK from SVN
I've tried the "cleanup" command - it didn't help. Also, I understand it only clears locks, so I'm not sure how it's related.
I've tried to checkout other codebases. This doesn't work either.
Edit:
Never mind. I've managed to find a solution: http://tortoisesvn.net/node/330
