RE: Starting bat file problem

Post by floydg »

ORIGINAL: Saburo Kurusu

That's the mistery. After saving my changes to the properties file and executing the bat file that error posted by me is documented and the four trackerdb files you show don't come up! Really strange....... [&:]
And yes, I followed the steps described on your tracker site to implement the program on my system.... (downloading, unzipping.....) Technically I'm not the brightest, but even I should be able to accomlish that! [:)]

Some message must have come up in the command window that pops up when you execute the batch file. If not, go to a command prompt, change directory to the WitPTracker folder and type "WitPTracker". Can you capture the messages?

Thanks,

Floyd
Delete the trackerdb.* files.
Copy the pwsdll.dll file from the game folder to the WitPTracker folder.
Try running the WitPTracker.bat again.

Floyd,

I love the new ship class .csv file. Would it be possible to add the ship class ID to the Ships.csv in a later version so I can link them automatically?

Also, does Tracker run on Windows 7? I tried to run it on my Windows 7 machine and it is having problems. It might be Java version problems too.

Thanks, Keith

Hello again Floyd. Well, that's the point where I finally seem to loose road contact. When executing the bat file, nothing else than the black DOS box pops up, documenting the error posted by me earlier.... And concerning "a command prompt" to change directory to the folder, I -well, please don't laugh too loud at me- don't know what that is and how that works....
I'm getting sad now concerning my own dumbness, because I feel that playing the campaign without your certainly fantastic tool will become a pain.....

That doesn't seem right, since there are no other database files in your folder to complain that the database is in use. What's in your "lib" folder?

RE: LCU arrived alert

Post by floydg »

The code generates the alert if:
[*]The new delay is 0
[*]The past turn's delay is not 0
[*]It's not a fragment

I'm not sure what's happening, so can you send me a save (witptracker @ gmail.com) from the turn before the alert and a turn with the alert (e.g., 228 and 229)?

Thanks.

Damian and floydg -

1.6.1. only enhances the standard of excellence that Tracker represents; my sincere gratitude and appreciation for this outstanding tool. I doubt that I would have ever made it out of the AE starting gate without Tracker (and the awesome Forumites!) to help me understand the complexities and mystery's of the AE universe.

I would also like to express my thankfulness!   [:)]  Damian finally solved my problem, which had been a Windows 7 issue I would never have thought about! The assistance and the help you get here from these great guys is just outstanding and unique, and the tool itself is nothing but fantastic!!!

Need help here:

I am trying to figure out how to find air units that can upgrade to a given a/c; e.g. which units can upgrade to the George with PDU on. It's obvious how to do it with PDU off, but how do you do it with PDU on?

I have seen posts where people have used Tracker to determine this, but I am unable to see how.

Thanks

In the Air Groups and Pilots panel, choose the Airgroups tab. There, select the target aircraft model (e.g., N1K2-J George), then in the Special menu, choose "Upgrade to".

Floyd is quite correct, however the "Upgrade TO" option just shows straight upgrades according to the DB defined upgrades. Now this information changes as you upgrade your airgroup, so it isn't static and can only be used to see the upgradeTo option (where aircraftId = upgradeID). RIGHT NOW

Whereas in the upgradeTo(path)I look at each of these upgradeID's and check the aircraft nationality, the attributes and the type and compare that to the upgrade that you want.If these match then I extrapolate that you can up / downgrade to the model you want. (Usually a downgrade but not always)

I'm going to look into ways of making this information more accessible to Tracker users; showing the path or something better but for now however this is what is avail.
