This is line 101 in renpy-6.15.7-sdk/launcher/game/package_formats.rpy:

Code: Select all

            zi.date_time = time.gmtime(s.st_mtime)[:6]
ZIP archives don't like files that have missing/ridiculous timestamps, so try checking your game files. When you find such a file...

On Windows, download the tool from http://sourceforge.net/projects/touchforwindows/ and drag touch.exe and the file, in that order, into the command prompt. Then hit enter; this will reset the modification date. Alternate program with a GUI: [File Date Touch]

On Linux, type touch now 'filepath' into the terminal to reset its creation and modification date. You can drag the file into the terminal window to write out its filepath.

I presume that font files are most likely to be affected since users rarely modify them.
