WitPTracker AE Release 1.11 Available!

Hello everyone,

I have WitP TRACKER up and running. I'm playing the Japanese in the Guadalcanal Scenario (scenario 04). Everything is working like a charm except TRACKER is substituting Allied ship bitmaps for all of my Japanese ships. Or at least that's what I think may be happening (I'm new to both WitP-AE & Tracker).

I tried to upload a screenshot to highlight the issue, but I still don't have that privilege (if I understand the automated forum notice I received). Anyway, if you can "picture it" [8D], the screenshot would have shown information about the class of one of my submarines (I-171). All of the data is correct (I think), but the image (or bitmap) is not.

From looking thru the WitP-AE files, I think the correct bitmap (a submarine in profile) is labelled "JnSide0135.bmp" within the "JapShip_Back" folder within the "ART" folder. However, the bitmap in the screenshot (a small ship) appears to be "AnSide0135.bmp", which is found within the "AlliedShip_Back" folder.

I have searched the forum but wasn't able to find anything relating to this issue. I'd greatly appreciate any comments or advice.

Cheers!

It's a problem with the program, I believe. I have fixed something related to it, but haven't released it. I'll try to get that out soon.

Thank you for the quick response. Your efforts are much appreciated! Tracker is a fine program & makes playing the game that much more enjoyable.

Well, since it's been almost six years since the last release, I figured I'd release what I had lying around.

It's not much, but I did fix some bugs and added just a few things. The full details are here: https://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/releases

Enjoy!

I just had an opportunity to try version 1.11 of the Tracker. Thank you so much for this update!!

Just one question only!
Is new version compatible with 64-bit Windows or not?

[Nomad]

All versions have been compatible with 64-bit Windows, just not with 64-bit Java. It has to do with the file pwsdll7.dll being a 32-bit program.
You can run the program using 64-bit Java, but you can not read a new turn in with 64-bit Java.

[Edward75]

Yes I know. I meant compatibility with Java! Sorry. That is, new version is not yet compatible with 64-bit Java.
floydg promised to do it, I waited so much. I am saddened(

I just don't have an infinite amount of time...

Trying to follow the instructions but I'm obviously doing something wrong. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

[Nomad]

You must download and install the 32-bit version of Java.

Note that you should put it in a completely different location than the 64-bit version.

[Bill Durrant]

Thanks - I installed both and I guess they went to the same place but haven't a clue where they would have ended up. The only Java folders I can find relate to jre 1.8.0 which are in C:ProgramFile/Java and C:Program Files(x86)/Java. Apologies I'm not great with Windows

[Nomad]

I think the one in the C:Program Files(x86) is the 32-bit on. You need to change your bat file to point directly to the java.exe program
in that folder. Something like this:

Put your 32 bit java in some place other than the default one and then point tracker directly to it, like this:

"c:\nomads 32 bit java\installation\bin\java.exe" -Xms768m -Xmx768m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause

[Bill Durrant]

Thank you! I'll give it a go [&o]

Hi guys, I just saw this set of error messages. I do not know how long they have been popping up. I am just showing one, but there are lots of them. I am worried about the message that is bolded:

Is this something I need to worry about? I have 17 months of data stored, Dec 7, 1941 to May 5, 1943.

[floydg]

Yipes. Didn't expect that to happen. You can free up some DB space by purging old Alerts.

[Nomad]

Interesting. I had alerts from day 2 up. The trackerdb.data is 2GB in size and did not change size when I cleared all but the last 10 days of alerts.

Also, I did not get any error messages when I loaded tracker, maybe they only show up when I read a turn in. I am at a good spot to restart my database
so I will do that but also I will see what happens with the next turn.
