WitPTracker AE Release 1.11 Available!

[Encircled]

Sorry!

Basically, everything appears to be set up correctly to run, but after I double click on the witptracker.bat, I get the message "Java SE has stopped working, Windows is searching for the problem".

It then comes up on the DOS "Press any key to continue", I press the key and it closes

[floydg]

What version of java are you running?

From a DOS window, type "java -version".

[Encircled]

Java 6

I used to be on Java 7, but changed it to the one identified by N12345667 (Apologies, can't remember his exact log in details) on this.

Now I'm just completely confused. I have Java according to my program list

[floydg]

can you humor me and run the command? In case you have multiple Java installs, you'd need to get the batch file to point to the right Java.

[Encircled]

Just in case you missed the above

My computer incompetence is really beginning to annoy me at the moment!

[Encircled]

"java -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause"

This is what the tracker batch file is currently pointed to btw

Yes, it needs to look like this ...
On a win7 / 8 machine
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar" nomap

Also, my name is Damian

[Encircled]

Damian, a thousand apologies for my continued inepitude, but I think I must be doing something wrong with my batch file

I'm editing the batch file to add the command you have given me, and I get this.

Sometimes things are fiddly...

In your batch have "...java.exe" you need to include the ".exe" to java.
If there are any trackerdb.* files delete them and try again mate.

You are very close to the solution IMHO

Oh - also if you are using the beta; copy the pwsdll.dll from the beta2 folder to the tracker folder

[edit] Also, off to bed so I hope that good news comes by morning ...

[Encircled]

Thanks for your continued advice and help, but I'm officially a bit lost.

Which bit do I need to change to get the batch file to point correctly to Java?

To my eye it looks like you are forgetting to put in one of the quotation marks. Notice that the error is that 'C:\Program' is not recognized. That is because you have spaces with the path (and/or file) specification. By default the space indicates that is where it ends, so you need to enclose the whole thing within quotation marks so that Windows knows that the whole thing including any spaces is part of the path (and/or file name).

When I look at post # 4568 it looks like you forgot the first " (double quotation mark).

Should be this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar" nomap

But you have this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar" nomap

BTW, that presumes that C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\ is actually the place where the Java 6 java.exe is located, you will have to adjust it if it is not.

I know this is going to be hard to believe, but I'M IN!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all your help guys!

Hello everyone!

I just installed witp ae tracker, as i began a GC.
Firts I had the same path problem (and by the way my path is "\Java\bin\java.exe", i don't have \jre6\, is that normal?), but i corrected it in the .bat file.

Then now it's telling me "Java platform SE binary ceased working", then tracker just close.

I don't know anything about computer, so i have to discretely and gentlemanly ask "HEEELP MEEEEE!"[&o] to anyone who can understand this kind of problem.

I have win 7, 64 bits.

I installed C++ vcredist_x86.exe and the latest java as mentionned in the installer guide.

You need java 6v45. Java 7 doesn't work.
Install this ...

Then path it like the previous posts on this page

Thank you Damian, you were right about the version of Java.[:)]

I've downloaded this version, so now let's procede to problem n°3![:D]
What all these "Unknown Source" mean?[&:]

It means that you haven't copied the pwsdll.dll from the beta2 folder into the tracker folder. As you are using the beta version of witp-ae, you need to use this dll.

Delete all trackerdb.* files in tracker and run again after copying the file.

[Crazypantoufle]

Thank you Damian! It WORKS, my friend![&o]

Only one thing: before entering into the tracker, it says "WARNING: Could not initialize SigInt information for first turn".

My save is in the first turn of the GC. Is this normal?

Yes mate, as it is the first turn there is no sigInt data nor alerts. Remember to load the region definitions and you'll be good to go

Enjoy!

[Crazypantoufle]

Load a new region definition? How do i do that?
Do i have to change the file from the game? And what does it change?

Sorry for bothering you with all these questions, but i really am a newbie in both witp ae and computer programs.[:(]

It's in Tracker so that you can see things happening in different regions. Unfortunately, our web site is down at present as there seems to be a google sites problem.

To do it

File -> Import Base file definitions
Open the region-mappings folder
I recommend using Kull or Nomads def's.

Hope this helps.
