When i went to 7.1 I no longer have regions. How do I get the region file?

You can do it manually, but better to import it. This is explained here: http://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/regions-1
Delete the trackerdb.* files.
Copy the pwsdll.dll file from the game folder to the WitPTracker folder.
Try running the WitPTracker.bat again.

Is it possible to have an alert letting us know when a unit has upgraded its TO&E please? I know we already get the one letting us know TO&E can upgrade but another one letting us know which unit in particular has upgraded would be of great help, especially in Australia where the Australia Command gets to move from one end to another lending its support to upgrading units

I'd just love to be able to use this utility. I tried the "vcredist_IA64.exe or vcredist_x64.exe hotfix from microsoft ." fix, but I still get this error(See attachment)
What am I doing wrong?

What is the best region file for supply when all chinese railroads are held. Basically which would break the regions across supply groups the best?

Try running without the map. Use the [font="Courier New"]WitPTrackerNoMap.bat [/font] file to accomplish that.

Do you have a pair of saves (before and after) so that I can test this out?

it worked once, but would only load a turn from an AI game.
I tried reinstalling it and get this error.
I know I'm doing something wrong.
This is so frustrating.

Your error message is dealt with here -
http://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/support

You should un-install the 64 bit microsoft patch and then reapply the 32 bit ... also look at the java configuration 32 bit is what you need.

I understand your pain & it is a bit fiddly with 64 bit OS but it will work - I assure you I've got plenty of users configured.

Any chance we see case sensitive filtering when choosing a class on the Ship screen?
A bit annoying when you choose AMc and get AMC too.
Not sure but maybe other screens could use it too.

I'm not familiar with how often a new version is released so I have to ask, do we get a new version soon?

I'll check that out ...

We've been fairly consistent with releases over the last few years (look at the past release dates) - whenever we have something good we wrap it up and make it available.

I've done very little for the next release so far - just some bugs I found. I was hoping to do some new development this week as I'm on my annual pilgrimage to see the Aged Parents - but looks like Floyd has done a fair amount already. I'll email him soon an we'll have a chat about things... so your answer for now is dunno but probably not too distant.

I tried following those instructions. This program is great, and you guys give great support, but it is so difficult to get it to work.

I have the before, the after when I get the turn back. If you can provide an email address I'll send you the details of the unit in question, OPSEC prevents me from disclosing that here [:'(]

Your command line is wrong. On 64Bit Windows it should read exactly as follows provided that java 32 bit was installed in the default directory:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"

You should also replace Xmx512m with Xmx768m as this seems the most "longlived" setting
I think the Desktop path may be problematic if UAC is on

I just tried the Combat Report tool and I wonder if this interaction between report and map could be done in the Tracker too, so that I for example click on location on the base screen and the tracker jumps to the map and shows me that location.

Also I wonder if the combat report tool could be merged into the tracker, something for combat would enhance the tracker or was the combat part left out for a purpose?

We started by reading, displaying and tracking things in the save file. Now that we've almost exhausted that (or at least most of what we want to get from the save file), we can now progress to the text files. We did add support for the sigint files a while back and plan to expand to more of it as time goes on.

This is done in our spare time, and lately it's been precious little, so we do what we can.

As always, thanks for your support and suggestions.

Filtering fixed in the Ships panel. I'll look at the others now.

New version: as Damian said, every so often.
