Spritegen standalone .jar seems to load Dom 5 tables instead of Dom 6 tables #1207

SpritegenError

It seems like the standalone spritegen.jar loads the dom5 mod inspector table, which causes issues with the glamour path which crashes the program.

Additional maybe useful details:
We started to poke around at it because we couldn't get dom6 version of standalone spritegen to run.

The initial error seemed to be a missing setting file. Commands tested was:
java -jar [filepath]\spritegen.jar

We verified that the dom 5 version worked.

We used cd to change directory into the nationgen folder and then it gave this new and exciting error posted above. Commands tested was
1)
cd "[filepath]"
Which was executed successfully
2)
java -jar spritegen.jar
Which generated the above error.

Since we did run the dom5 version of spritegen, it may have generated the faulty settings file (though this seems unlikely; they are in diffirent folders and shouldn't be looking there. Though... if the settings file is saved elsewhere..? Additional information: Attempting to execute the java -jar [filepath]\spritegen.jar command still complains about missing settings file, so it seems unlikely that cross-contamination is the issue.

Note: dom6 nationgen still produces sprites properly.

My random guess is that the Spritegen graphic ui setup thingy hasn't been updated and thus looks at the wrong mod inspector tables?

The .jar for Spritegen hasn't been updated in 4 years, so it cannot handle glamour chanceincs. The DB loading text is old for the same reason, but it does load Dom6 databases since the filenames are the same.
