Probably a very easy issue with my data file, but the validator/error message isn't helping much

$ ~/Downloads/castle-model-viewer-4.3.0-win64-x86_64/castle-model-viewer/castle-model-converter.exe --validate JinSkip09x.x3d 2>&1
castle-model-converter: Warning: X3D: Error when reading MFString field "value" value. Possibly missing double quotes (treating as a single string): Error at line 1 column 2: Illegal character in stream : ' (#39)

{ ignoring the standard joints message for now ]

Here's the file:
JinSkip09x.x3d.txt

Probably Joe W. has already reported this.

Thanks, I will try downloading the latest viewer

Here's the offending line:

<MetadataString name='gender' value="'female'"/>

Closing

Note that this was nowhere near line 1. That might be able to be fixed.

I see it's closed. For others, to make it clear, the solution is to do

<MetadataString name='gender' value='"female"'/>

i.e. value = <apostrophe> <double-quote> female <double-quote> <apostrophe> . This is valid X3D XML, with MFString.

Doing value = <double-quote> <apostrophe> female <apostrophe> <double-quote> is not valid.

Note that this was nowhere near line 1. That might be able to be fixed.

Indeed. That error message talks about 1st line of MFString contents -- which will be almost always 1... I agree it is confusing. I'll look to improve this, thanks!
