No! To start Tracker you must double-click ("open")the "WitPTracker.bat" file from the tracker install folder. This will open the black box command window and will start tracker after some delay. And when you're finished with tracker, you exit tracker from within (File menu) and then you have to manually close the black abox by clicking any key.

Or, more smoothly, you can download the Tracker_exe.zip, extract the file (it's only one) and put it into the tracker installation folder and double-click this .exe file to start Tracker program. This works nicer than the manual process via the .bat file.

Then on your desktop you make a shortcut pointing to this .exe file and you can double-click the shortcut to start Tracker. I have it set up like this.

The download link is provided on the Support page of their website (you have the link) at the very bottom end of the page:
Tracker_exe.zip (175k)
To download you need to hit the little blue arrow on the very right hand side.

I don't know if this is the right place, but can somebody explain differences in stats of the Tracker compared to the editor/ingame stats to me?
For example the Sherman in game and editor has 45mm of armour, on the otherhand in the tracker the armour is 90mm
Another example is the range of several allied CD guns, which in the tracker have longer range than shown in the editor or the game.

Could somebody explain this to me, please?
Thank you.

Tracker reads the saved files. The data is the same as that provided ingame. Any differences you are seeing will be the result of different scenarios being read. Device data does vary between different scenarios.

Ok thanks I just recently updated java like a week and a half ago when the window popped up asking for a newer version to be installed could that be a problem?
Also when the DOS window opens up and asks for any key to be pressed after that I hit the "jar" file this is when the wipttracker opens yes? because when I do the mouse goes its "wait" mode till open and then nothing,is working and just not finding a save file yes?

Oh I forgot to ask does the game have to be running in order to access witptracker I'm guessing no but they say ask a stupid question you get an answer despite what they think of the person asking it.

No, the game needs not to be running in order to run tracker and look at its data.

From the witptracker web site - support section:

This will show up as an error message:
Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform
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.)
Check here for installation.

Step 2. Check you have 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.

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 must run WitPTracker from the batch file. There is an executable file that might solve your problem if you've done the step above at the bottom of this page.

Weird, it's the same scenario I'm looking at and comparing the list in game of the save file, they are different.

Ah, found it. Different versions of the same scenario (2).

Good luck with that. Tracker was developed using eithere Vista or XP, Windows 7 was easier to get it to work than Windows 10.

Hi all! Getting back into the game after a long hiatus. I've got tracker up and running again (how I missed thee...) but seeing as this game is my first go with stacking limits, I thought I'd check tracker for an 'over stacked' base list. I check the Bases report, however, most of the bases still say unlimited, and the rest are the old standard 6,000, 30,000 and 60,000 limits. Is there somewhere else in tracker that reads the newer stacking limits for each base? Apologies if this has been answered many times - I tried Google and forum search before I asked!

Thanks!

This is an error parsing something in the operations file. You can ignore it -- the rest of the turn should load fine.

I've got already over 800 turns loading each time, which always takes a while. Which file do I have to delete to have it starting from scratch?

I restarted, tried the trick with pulling the power cord and pressing the power button for 10 seconds, and still get this message when trying to run a new turn. I've had the same settings for Tracker and have been able to run about 220 turns without a problem. Any suggestions?

The Java settings are as large as you can set them, so all I can think of is other programs running on the computer and your free RAM. If that's not it, it could be the size of the database.

I don't think the size of the data base has anything to do with it. I have trackers with databases that are over 1TB in size and they load and get next turns
with no problem( the only problem is how long they take to load ). I think it has to do with what else is running. Make sure nothing else is running. And it may
be a process that is running that you do not see without going to Task Manager. The other thing is that I have had problems in the past with using -Xmx1024m.
Try changing it to -Xmx768m instead and see what happens.

This is my bat file for tracker.

"c:\32 bit java\java.exe" -Xms256m -Xmx768m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause

And BTW, notice that I an not using the nomap option, as far as I can tell, it makes no difference in memory usage. It is interesting to watch the resources in task manager while you load tracker and then load a turn.

Thanks for the above suggestions. It was indeed a program running in the background, Dropbox, which had always been there but for some reason (maybe an update) was no absorbing much more memory. Once I shut it down, everything worked fine.
