It needs more memory (ran out building the map).

Change the command line to something like:
java -Xms512m -Xmx640m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"

Thanks thats the ticket.

As i get father into the game will i need to upgrade the memory usage again? And if so do i need to stick to a certain number of increments going higher? 128 being the difference in the upgrade of memory.

Theoretically, as you get further you will not need to increase memory. We're looking at ways to decrease the memory usage. In fact, the next release will have the ability to disable the map, freeing up a significant amount of memory and a lot of the start-up time.

Trying to build a base list for my mod...unfortunately it seems Tracker will not replace some of the section headers I overwrote when I put in bases...

Example Loc Data Slot 221 has the Header JAPAN in the stock scenario... I placed a base into this slot as well as 217, 218,219 and 220....Tracker reads 217-220 and enters the new base names however 221 it retains JAPAN

Same thing happens with several other slots that were used as Section headers in the stock scenario data....



Fixed Treespider,
and I'll make a new region-def file to go with your mod ... should be in the next release. When the program initialises the first time from now on, all bases will be assigned to the same region. The user will have to load the region-def's manually... which is what has to happen anyway...

Still working on the loadup time issues for those that have many turns loaded. Would the last 30 turns be enough for the Industry-Global Histories ? With the option to see it all ?
Regards
Damian

According to tracker, I should be able to convert Mutsuki 2/42 class DDs to APDs (and perhaps Es thereafter). But when I actually look at the ships, this conversion is not listed. And, according to tracker, if I take the next upgrade after 2/42, I will not be able to make conversions then. So I want to know what is going on here. Is it possible to convert a Mutsuki to and APD or E? And if so, which version of the Mutsuki can do the conversion?

According to the editor, for scenario 1, you should be able to convert both the 12/41 and the 2/42 Mutsuki to APDs.

BTW, the 12/42 APD Mutsuki converts to the E Mutsuki.

I wonder if this is a different patch than I am using? I started this game using patch number 2. Tracker says the upgrade is available, but it doesn't show on the ship display.

If the ship Class has been changed by a patch then Tracker doesn't pick this up, we only read the ship class (which contains the conversions) at the initial load up. I just loaded up a turn Mutsuki (1412 (12/42) + 1413 (2/42)) converts one way to APD (1417).

The 1418 APD Mutsuki converts to E class 1419 (avail 1/43), but there doesn't seem to be any 1418 APD's available and you can't convert to this class (1418) ... I'll dig deeper to see if this binding is defunct. --- i was wrong see posts below

Unfortunately, Tracker doesn't look at total paths as I couldn't work out the tree structure sufficiently when I coded it ... I'll look at it again.

The 1417( APD ) upgrades to the 1418( APD ) as of 12/42. And then the 1418 upgrades to the 1419( E ) as of 1/43

Ok, in looking at it further, it seems that I need the Mutsukis to finish their 2/42 upgrades, i.e. be returned to service, before I will see the APD conversion option.

Thanks for the help.

yeah and just to clarify once those upgrades are done Tracker should then tell you it can upgrade to the E class ... it's just we don't calculate the depth of conversions (which I'd like to sometime)

Cheers

I just upgraded a unit of A6M2's to A6M3a's. According to Tracker, the "a" model should have 2x20mm Type 99-2 cannons (plus 2 7.7mm mgs). But when I check the plane data of the unit in the game, it indicates that the "a" model has not only 2x20mm Type 99-2, but 2x20mm Type 99 as well. Is there something screwy with the plane data?

Well in the editor it has both, but the 2x20mm Type 99 is in the 11~20 slot and from the in game plane and weapon DB we have what they have. I'm unsure why there are differences except when it's extended range (but then I'm not a modder). Maybe I should ask one of them.

I haven't look at the DB, but I found a similar sounding error for a US Army plane a while back. It turns out that one weapon (MG) was different in the extended slots than in the normal range slots, so the display showed both with one over-printing some other text. So it might just be a type in the database.

See error message 2
Good luck and I hope Floyd will add this to the web site sometime ... I've even re-written it to make it friendlier ...

Error Msg:
1. Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform
Vista 64 and Intel / AMD
This error message is usually because you haven’t installed the Microsoft C++ libraries. But if you have then it can also be because you’ve not got Java 32 installed and configured properly.

Solutions.
Step 1. Check C++ Libraries.
Check you have the C++ Libraries installed, if not, install the 32 bit version (even if you have a 64 bit OS.)

  • I'm unsure if you can have both the 32 and 64 bit C++ libraries available and still get Tracker to run, or how to configure it ... so it’s best for now just to have 32 bit for either 32 or 64 bit OS.

    Check here for installation:
    http://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/installation

    Step 2. Check 32 bit Java
    Check you have 32 bit Java installed. If you are working on a 64 bit OS, then you can have both installed.

    Step 2. Option 1. Change your witptracker.bat file to point to the 32 bit Java executable (you need the ""'s cause of the space) - this varies on different machines so you'll need to check the path:
    C:\"Program Files"\Java\jre6\bin\java -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar" 
    pause


    NB** you must run WitpTracker from the batch file !!
    (See link for executing the batch file in Win64 bit if it won’t run http://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/support )

    Step 2. Option 2.
    Copy NOT Move your 32 bit java.exe into the Tracker folder (I'm hoping it will pick this up rather than the 64 bit)


    Windows 7 and AMD
    No solution found or confirmed, try above using Intel 32 bit C++ Libraries.

    Other solutions:
    I have a Tracker executable file made with a 3rd party Java executable ... PM me with your email address. It seems to have a great deal of success.


    Error Msg
    2. Java is not recognized as an internal or external command
    Java is either not installed, or there is a pathing problem.

    Solution 1. Check you have Java JRE installed.
    Solution 2. Move Tracker folder to the Desktop or c:\
    Solution 3. Copy java.exe from your C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin to the WitpTracker folder (remember copy not move)
    Solution 4. Change your witptracker.bat file to point to the 32 bit Java executable (you need the ""'s cause of the space) - this varies on different machines so you'll need to check the path:
    C:\"Program Files"\Java\jre6\bin\java -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar" 
    pause


    Solution 5. (The best but most difficult)
    1. Right-Click My Computer and select Properties
    2. Then Click The Advanced Tab
    3. Then Click Environment Variables
    4. Select Path In The Bottom Box and Click Edit
    5. Find Where You installed Java (E.g "C:\Program Files\Java\bin)
    Its different on each computer so check where it's installed
    6. Make Sure to add a semicolon after the word bin in the path to separate it from the other important paths
    7. If this doesn't work then you may have to reinstall Java and Try Again
    Source(s):
    http://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml

    Setting Path on Windows
    For Windows XP: (additional notes)

    1. Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced
    2. Click on Environment Variables, under System Variables, find PATH, and click on it.
    3. In the Edit windows, modify PATH by adding the location of the class to the value for PATH. If you do not have the item PATH, you may select to add a new variable and add PATH as the name and the location of the class as the value.
    4. Close the window.
    5. Reopen Command prompt window, and run your java code.

    3. # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
    #
    # EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x6d901afd, pid=4924, tid=6864

    Batch file Set Up
    This is caused by not using the batch file to run Tracker, there are memory configurations inside the batch file.
    Solution 1. This information was provided by BigJ62:- http://sites.google.com/site/witptracker/support
    Solutions 2:
    I have a Tracker executable file made with a 3rd party Java executable ... PM me with your email address. It seems to have a great deal of success.

    Other errors.
    Generally speaking, uninstalling and reinstalling the C++ redist usually works. I've found some people having to go back to the original C++ package 95/98 and then patching up ... The x64 patch, seems to cause many problems and I'd recommend for now just trying the 32bit (x86) patch, before the 64Bit.

    For Win7 x64 the witptracker.bat file should point to the 32Bit version of java. If you haven't changed the default installation path for java 32Bit version during installation, the java.exe resides in C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin
    That path is true for all language versions of Win7 x64.

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

    Go back to where you got the long string of error messages, since in that case it was finding Java.
    Delete the trackerdb.* files (usually there are four of them) and start it up again.

    Did you delete all of the trackerdb files before starting the witptracker.bat file?
    When you first start, you should see an "Initializing WitPTracker AE database" message, which it doesn't look like you're seeing.

    Also, check your witptracker.properties file. See the instructions on the WitPTracker AE web site for an explanation of the file contents.
