Windows 10, Current Beta of WITP.

I moved the .exe file from jre1.8.0_151 to the Tracker folder
C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\tools\WitPTracker AE Release 1.9.2

Java(TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working.

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

The CMD screen has >pause
Hit any key to continue...
Closes with nothing.

My Java folder has a _25, _31, _60 as well as the _151 versions, I took the newest one.

Good to know on where to find.

BUT

My C: doesn't show ProgramData

Is there a way to unhide?

I don't know what that means, but where Java is installed doesn't need to be the same on every PC.

Can you run the Command Prompt program and type "where java" and then "java -version"?

But I don't see a ProgramData directory.

It used to be easier to show hidden items.

I copied the jave.exe from the right place, still have the

Hi all -
I'm thinking of looking at some issues related to the economic chart. I also noted that there maybe an issue with R&D factories which are turned off. I'll have a look back through the thread to see if there are any other things that I may be able to fix like the air support as well. Anything else that is outstanding / important ?

Floyd had long ago begun to implement the parsing of the operations files, which led to a lot of warnings
(eg.: WARNING: Unknown row in operations file <C:\Stuff\WiTP\SAVE\aoperationsreport_411207.txt>: [SLDR Henderson, A.D. of No.8 Sqn RAAF Det bails out with WOUNDS but is RESCUED]).
Perhaps the work on that could be continued or somehow made to be done by one self (eg. using some easily editable data file)?

Is there a chance to change the program to a different language (not java)? (I know I am being unreasonable)

BINGO! The turn file was incorrect!

I am just starting a game as Allies and have some orders given. When is the first time I will run WitPTracker? I don't know if you start a baseline or just run after each turn is resolved and saved. Thanks

Doh! Spoke to soon. Corrected the turn file:

# WitPTracker AE properties file
# Directory of the game
Dir=[C:\Games\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition]
# Type of game. 0=AI, 1=PBEM
GameType=[0]
# Side you are playing. 0=Japan, 1=Allies
Side=[1]
# Password. Only needed for PBEM
Password=[abc123]
# Name of the base save file
SaveFile=[wpae002.pws]
# Mode the program will look for save files.
# 0 = just in the local folder
# 1 = just in the game folder: [Dir]/SAVE
# 2 = local and then if not found there, the game folder
SaveMode=[1]
# Text to put in the header of the main window
Header=[Tracker game Vs AI]
# Turn cycle (days per turn). 1 or 2 are supported
TurnCycle=[1]


But still throws the error:

How did you unpack the program? There are files in a "lib" folder that it needs. If these aren't in the proper path, it won't work.
