So I started to get the error screen instead of character creation ever since updating to the latest version a week or so ago. I got the same error while trying to play 1.6 alpha, though 1.5 was still working fine then. My PC is shit so I play with pretty much everything that can be disabled already disabled.
Lua Error: /mod/dialogs/Birther.lua:140: bad argument #1 to 'merge' (sdl{surface} expected, got nil)

PS. Shite, I did't realize so many people reported the same thing, probably shoudn't have started a new thread :oops: Anyway, back to 1.5.5, I need my fix man

1.5.9 will resolve this but for now you can fix it yourself by going into the game's video options and changing Framebuffers to 'enabled'.
