WitpStaff questions and suggestions here please (read the first post!)

[nico71]

Still can't get WitpTracker to work. It did work in this system in the past, but not any more after a reinstall. It's Win7 x64, btw.

I have installed Java 6 v17 into a separate folder.

My bat:

"C:\Java\jre1.6.0_17\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
REM java -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause

And this is what happens when I start the program:

D:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\WITP Tracker>"C:\Java\jre1.
6.0_17\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"

I guess you are now on the newest version of AE. The Dll is now very different from when AE was first released..Therefore you'll need to copy the pwsdll.dll from the main folder into the staff folder.
Staff is no longer being developed by Marcus for AE.

[nico71]

Well, actually I got Staff to work with the separate Java install already (and default DLL), but still not Tracker. [:(]

Sorry - misread as you've posted in the staff thread and not the Tracker thread. I can assure you as one of the Tracker dev's that this looks directly like a dll issue.

Copy the dll into the tracker folder, delete all the trackerdb.* files and try again

[nico71]

Okay, copying the dll AND deleting the db-files did the trick! Awesome! Thanks!

I am attempting to install WITP Staff and get the error listed below. Could someone possibly assist me and help me find what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks very much.

[Dereck]

I'm getting the following errors when trying to load my game into WITP Staff. I am confused because 2568 and 2675 are TOE slots and 955 is a base slot (Sydney).

Thanks

WitpStaff is not supported anymore

I am trying to get WitPStaff working on Win 7 Home but it's fighting me all the way. Not being a Java programmer, what info / files / logs do I need to collect to display here (or is there another section to put errors?) to help folks zoom in on the issue? I would really like to get WitPStaff running! Thanks for your time.

Witpstaff is not supported. It is better to use 'Tracker'

My game is incredibly slow to go from one action to the next with long pauses in between actions no mater how minor. Is there a solution? [&:]

[PizzaMan]

LVT(A)-4 production should be 40 not 4.

[MarcyM]

For all the fixes this game has seen the real problem for the game is the basic programming which results in both the allies and Japanese computer doing things the real Commanders would NEVER have done. ie. the Japanese computer in early January is moving not 1 but 2 divisions to Guadalcanal from the Kwatung army in Manchuria, A Japanese Carrie task force is making a wide patrol over ocean. And 4 cruiser and 6 destroyers abandoned 2 CVL to bee destroyed by some allied cruisers. ie. in one game I played under computer control the carriers Saratoga and Yorktown sat in San Diego for months doing nothing. And transports carrying cargo and troops regularly travel closely past japanese held islands in the mid pacific without protection. Another example no matter what I do I can't load troops (the 4th marines for example) on transports to get them out of the philipines. Planes and ships will not react, not attack - just sit. This is an extremely detailed game but is hardly a realistic simuation.

You're posting in a sub-forum devoted to a dead game utility.

Question:
Can a lost pbem password be retrieved by a dev?
It's from an abandoned game years ago and I have the consent of my former opponent.

No dev will assist. Read this recent thread.

Thanks, Alfred. It's time to delete that pbem file then.
