Switch to a higher luminosity light bulb.

Seriously, think of the question that you want to ask, be specific, then search to see if there are any threads where the question has already been asked. Then read any pertinent threads, add your question to that thread if you do not fully understand the answer. Also, if English of whatever form is not your primary language and even if it is but you do have difficulty with that, please state that as well.

You can always change the slot that Tracker looks at . . .


Presume that would require me to make that adjustment every turn as I save in every slot consecutively until all slots are full and then start reusing slots.

Or save the game twice. Once in the slot that tracker looks at and the other one in the consecutive order . . .

No, it reads the turns when you tell it to. It also does not need the -archive switch set.
It gets it data from the turn file and the current sigint and ops files and stores
everything in its database.

Status: offline 		Can anyone help me here...following on from my post 26 on the previous page, Nomad told me -

That is because you are using Java as the program name. That will take you to the standard 64-bit java. Use the complete path like this

"c:\32 bit java\installation\bin\java.exe" -Xms768m -Xmx768m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause


How do I change this, where do I change this? I have donloaded the WITP Tracker zip file, installed everything including the multiple versions of Java, Nomad has helped me hugely by diagnosing the problem but I still dont know how to get WITP Tracker to point to the 32 bit version not my default 64 bit version.

I would really appreciate a simple step by step instruction and yes I appreciate that this has probably been asked before, but the WITP Tracker thread is 205 pages long and finding this isnt easy.

Once again all help appreciated.

Status: offline 		Hano, this is the witPTracker.bat file in the tracker folder. Right click on it and select edit.
It will open it into notepad and you can make the changes.

Status: offline 		I have no idea what location you put your 32-bit java at.
You can not just copy mine bat file.

You just need to change the word java in your bat file to be what ever
the complete path is to your 32-bit java installation.
