Post by tacfire »

hello,

I am having trouble getting Tracker working after I upgraded the game to the latest official patch. I also tried to upgrade my tracker from version 1.61 to 1.8 but I am getting the following error when it tries to initialize the new database:


C:\Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\tools\Witp_AE_Tracker_1.5>java -Xm
s384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
Initializing WitP Tracker AE database.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at witptracker.Engines.GetEngines(Engines.java:75)
at witptracker.InMemoryDB.LoadStartupTables(InMemoryDB.java:154)
at witptracker.Main.main(Main.java:157)

Any ideas what could be wrong? The path "Witp_AE-Tracker_1.5" is correct I believe, I left tracker in its old folder with my startup shortcut still points to.

I give up. Cannot get it to run under Windows 7 x64. Keep getting the java out of memory error. I tried all the workarounds listed on the site.

I have Windows 7 64bit like you, several problems with Java that I have been able to resolve reading this thread.

I can also say, I have Windows 7, 64-bit and I have had no problem running Tracker. It makes one wonder what is different.

I get a similar message when I try to initialize Tracker after installing the official beta patch:

\java.exe" -Xms384m -Xmx512m -jar "WitPTracker.jar"

Win7 64bit, newest version of tracker - worked like a charm before the beta patch.

Make sure you copy the latest pwsdll.dll file from the game folder to the WitPTracker folder, remove the trackerdb.* files and try again.

Read my sig (and use the official pwsdll.dll, but either will work).
Delete the trackerdb.* files.
Copy the pwsdll.dll file from the game folder to the WitPTracker folder.
Try running the WitPTracker.bat again.

Tracker is working find for me except the TF screen. Anyone else have issues with this? Maybe something to do with the latest patch? It locks up/and or/ doesn't display properly. It tries to display on top of whatever last screen you were on.

The tracker doesn't load new turns.
It always stops at "Compare Bases"

Did you upgrade to the new comprehensive while you had turns loaded in Tracker from the old ? I'd guess it is something to do with that. You could try a fresh install and take the last two turns and check and if there is a problem email Floyd and I the files for bug checking ..

Do you have a floating Dry Dock moving at present ? There is a known bug with this and I suggest not going into the TF screen until the FDDock has reached its destination

It seems to work again. The problem might be that I started the tracker while starting the game. I think I read that others had that problem, too

Looks to me like you used the wrong pwsdll.dll file and the save wasn't properly read.
Delete the trackerdb.* files.
Copy the pwsdll.dll file from the game folder to the WitPTracker folder.
Try running the WitPTracker.bat again.
