I cant get this to work at all rcm1616

Do i need witpaeload running before I can use it? I use Tracker not witpaeload.
What happens if i have several games running from the same Save folder?

ORIGINAL: Dan Nichols

I didn't see the cmd window. I got a working icon for 3-4 minutes and then when I tried to see the data I got an error saying the program connot find wticls002.csv. I looked and there are no csv files in my scen folder.

ORIGINAL: Dan Nichols

Here is what the dumpscen.bat file looks like:

c:
cd D:\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\PBEM game vs obvert\SCEN
witploadAE.exe/s002 /e /b,


when I run it I get this:


D:\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\PBEM game vs obvert\SCEN>c:

C:\>cd D:\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\PBEM game vs obvert\SCEN

'witploadAE.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\>pause
Press any key to continue . . .

I think you need to put " around the file name.
and you are not handling the case where we have the game
installed to a disk other than c:


I changed my dumpscen.bat file to this and it extracted the files

This is NOT a hit on you rcm, just letting everyone else know that Excel Starter will not run the spreadsheet because macros are disabled with the free version that comes on most windows computers now.[:@][:@]

MY MISTAKE!

I use witploadae version dated 24.7.2011. In this version is new export option /b which enables choosing other delimiter character then ";". Without this new feature I was not able to import data from csv file to excel correctly.

So witploadae.exe from BETA version of GAME must be in \SCEN folder.

Macros are disabled in the general case as a mechanism to allow the user to protect him/herself from malicious code.

When the spreadsheet is loaded (in the newer versions) a toolbar option becomes available to enable the macro. This is a once off choice and must be immediately enabled before doing anything else. It is also possible to set the directory where this spreadsheet is stored to be a 'safe' source of spreadsheets and then macros will automatically be enabled.

I can't quite remember the mechanism for the older Excel application, but a similar option definately exists to enable macros in the spreadsheet. You will need to hunt around for it a bit.

This unlikely to be the problem. It appears that the original code was written for use in east Europe.

Are you sure?

I had absolutely no problem parsing the database files using witploadAE.exe date November 17th, 2009 03:48:42. This I know for sure is the last version available after the last official patch was installed. To be precise... there are no beta installs in the current directory tree where I am testing your software.

EDIT: Belay that question. It seems that the csv files loaded preceded the run date of your tool. I will report back after further investigation... sorry....

Agreed. I had to repair the same two routines as you did to get the date/time standard aligned correctly so it would find the right file name. Initially it was looking for CombatReport2.txt for me.... [:D]
