[Fixed] Trouble updating to new DB

[Gunner98]

Just installed the latest Beta (B1147.7) and trying to update from an old build (DB470) and the process locks up at the point where I should have an opportunity to select the INI file. See clip.

Save in next post

[chrispman]

Can confirm this. The FileChooser doesn't open.

[SteveMcClaire]

Logged for investigation. Can you provide the save please? Thanks!

[SteveMcClaire]

Also - just a hunch. The dialog to open the INI file may be behind the app. Try hitting ALT+TAB when this happens and see if you can find the file open dialog box.

[Gunner98]

Thought I had put a save up, sorry. Here it is.

Will check the Alt-Tab bit.

[Gunner98]

No luck on the Alt-Tab, worth checking though

[papymaj55]

I am having this problem too.

[SteveMcClaire]

Could you please try this in the 1147.8 update and let me know how it is now? Thanks!

[Gunner98]

Steve

Unfortunately the problem still persists. The DB upgrade gets hung up at the 'Select INI configuration file...' stage. The prompt does not appear. See screenclip.

But ... when I chose 'Deep-Rebuild (select manually)' things seem to proceed OK. When I check after the update it still says DB470 in the menu but if I reload the scenario it tells me that the DB is 487.

I need to go through to make sure the SBR took but it looks OK so far.

Still a couple problems though:

1. the pop up prompt to select the INI file is still not working
2. when updating through the deep rebuild button, the current DB should be visible immediately, shouldn't have to reload the scenario for it to update.

Thanks

[Gunner98]

Well having no munitions on any of the bases is an indicator that the SBR didn't take.

Oh and no cargo anywhere. Fixable but not fun.

[Gunner98]

Update - by manually applying the SBR script things now seem to be working.

So the work-around is to update to the latest DB - if the prompt for the INI file does not show up just close the window.

Next go to Editor/SBR/Apply SBR script and navigate to your INI file

This should work but am still checking things out.

[SteveMcClaire]

Thanks for that information Gunner98. Will continue working on it.

[Dimitris]

This _should_ be fixed in the next update release, please cross-check when possible.

[Gunner98]

Thank you that problem is indeed fixed

But is followed up by an error as seen in the clip.

I've never seen an error like this before but this is a new computer so who knows that is working in the background

When I hit continue the game remains open but is locked up
When I hit quit it shuts the game down

[SteveMcClaire]

The threading issue has been identified and fixed for the next update. Thanks for your patience.

[Gunner98]

Thanks Steve

[Gunner98]

Everything seems to be working fine with 1147.10

Thanks
