A request regarding TFs.
Any chance to list TFs that are idle(not loading or unloading)?
I spend a lot time to browse the in-game TF list to find TFs that sit around because I send them there for a special purpose.

I'm trying to load a turn into a Tracker version 1.8 that I've had going for awhile with the betas & it was working w/ the regular betas but this turn is the first turn I'm trying to load that is w/ the MP version as I started having out of pilot slots problems. When I try to load the turn into the Tracker I've had going it locks up in the updating pilot info step (I've let it go for over an hr with no movement that I can discern) so I quit Tracker. I started a new Tracker 1.8 & it says initializing database but doesn't seem to end (even after over an hr I don't see the press any key to exit I'd expect) so I close the DOS window & start it like I'm going to load a turn but I get the following. I've moved the pwsdll & pwsdllMP files from the beta2 folder. Anything else I might've missed or is Tracker not set to work w/ the MP version?
If you rename the pwsdllMP to pwsdll.dll then it might work with some errors. I can load using 1.8 doing it this way.

Ok thanks, I'll give that a try. Would I still be able to keep my current beta Tracker going or would I still have to start a new Tracker w/ the switch to MP version?

Give it a go ... but I'd be thinking clean DB for optimum results.

Not without adding more data-points and we're not going to do that for this... better to rename the TF I'd say.

It worked replacing the regular dll w/ the MP version of it didn't notice any errors so far after a couple of turns & using the Tracker I already had going. It's late game & just hated to lose it [:D]

First of all you need to install the 32 bit version of Java (6.29) Not version 7. You can have both 64 and 32 bit java installed but Tracker has to point to the 32 bit.
Solution 4. Change your witptracker.bat file to point to the 32 bit Java executable (you need the quotes because of the space) - this varies on different machines so you'll need to check the path:


32bitOS users
C:\"Program Files"\Java\jre6\bin\java -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause
64bitOS users
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause

You also need the vcredist_x86.exe version. The error you're getting means that you probably need to reinstall it and then do a MS update to make sure that the updated version is correct.

Cheers

Is possible to add for Aircraft Gun Acc and Gun Dmg?
where
Gun Acc = sum of all gun accuracies (for P-51D 6 0.5 browning guns give 6*0.29=1.74)
Gun Dmg = sum of all gun accuracies multiple of their effect and penetration ( for example above 6*(0.29*3*1.2)=6.264
Right now i dont know how much give penetration for gun damage (or armor for durability).
And may be air2air effectiveness for F/FB/NF (like in WITP with exclude gun value but gun damage instead).
Also i think useful to add Service Rate to Aircraft table.

P.S. Btw aicraft comparision show wrong acc. for air guns.

Any chance for a bit help for the Minewarfare?
Currently I see the mines under Devices and can check their pools but but it would be helpful to see which ship classes can carry a specific mines type so I can check if I can use them at all.
Would also be nice to see numbers for the "Active" slot in the Devices sheet or the mine type on the "Minefields" sheet.

Copy the Dll from the beta into tracker. I assume that you're using it - cause this is the usual message when not using the correct pwsdll.dll.
