I got the exact same error on startup as well. I tracked it down to PerfectRaid. You might want to check if that works for you. I'll be heading over to the Ace forums and checking the post there to see if this has been corrected. Hope that helps!

update:

Got a solution from the Ace forums post here

That version of proximitylib doesn't have a Revision number in it. So its gets errors about comparing a number to nil or some such. I fixed it by just putting 12345 for the revision number =)

I changed this:

Code:

local vmajor, vminor = "1", tonumber(string.sub("$Revision$", 12, -3))

to this:

Code:

local vmajor, vminor = "1", tonumber(string.sub("$Revision$ 12345", 12, -3))

Works for now until an update/fix is released by Cladhaire

kk, ty. I don't know anything aboput coding...but I'm gonna try!

How do you even open an .lua?

I used notepad in windows to open ProximityLib.lua in the libs folder of PerfectRaid. The line you need to change is right at the top. Hope that helps.
