Dear Twine team
I have been an evangelist for Twine among french teachers for two years. Organising some training courses and planning a little hackaton in Strasbourg for next 13th of may.
But all the recent releases of the 2.1 serie seem to be hoplessly bugged. I was unable to work with 2.1 on any of my computers. Using Windows 10, Windows 7 or Mint 18.1, french versions. Allways the same symptoms : I launch Twine, and it is unable to save any story after closing. On relauching, Twine freezes and the only way to quit is to relaunch the computer...
Quite a few users complained about the same problems. I made my own ticket in the issues folder. I was pretty shure an element of the problem is in translating the name of the folders in localized versions of Twine.
I hoped very much that with the 2.1.1 release Chris had brought a solution or advices to make Twine run properly.
I was very disapointed to see that 2.1.1 made no progress concerning those oddities. And so I am in great trouble about the future and all the promotion I have made for Twine. It's in no case an attack against the team releasing Twine, but a serious fear to publicly "loose my face" and be forced to cease pushing Twine. Please, help us continuing to present Twine as a good tool in schools.
My only solution for the moment is to stick on release 2.0.8... and to apologize for my poor english lacking the nuances.
