see first post in this thread for fixes and new feature
If you own previous version, just overwriteyour version with exe file from archive.
If you install fresh version, follow instructions in the first post in this thread.
Would you be upset if I included this in the official release for tomorrow as part of the install?

Has anybody gotten this to work using Microsoft vista home premium 64 bit? When I click on the application I get a box telling me the program has stopped working with the option to check the web for a solution and to end the program. Just purchased a laptop with the operating system above pre installed.

unfortunately I don't have 64bit version of Windows available to check

As a fellow Vista user, a few pieces of advice to ensure a lot more backwards compatibility (I'm using 32-bit, but I'd imagine this would help you, as well). Direct X 10 and Direct X 9.0c are both installed, side by side, on the machine, by the 9.0c version is pretty skeletal. Download and install the latest 9.0c update...it won't affect DX10 at all. Also, download and install EVERY .Net version you can get your hands on. I did this stuff right out of rhe gate, and I've had very few issues getting any older software to work (the few exceptions having problems with the combo of Vista and a DX10-capable graphics card). Hopefully this helps you out!

Hey Arkady,
needed a little bit to "find" your viewer, but you´ve really done a great job! [&o]

I've never had any trouble running Arkady's Unit Viewer. Today, however, for East Front and Rising Sun (not West Front), I get the following message:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
I've hit Continue, but the error persists. Any suggestions?

Have you tried more than once? Sometimes during booting up, drivers don't load properly. Have you tried accessing it after rebooting? Or does this happen no matter what?
RE: JTCS Unit Viewer
I turned the computer off for at least fifteen minutes and rebooted. Same result. I tried disabling the firewall, but got the same result.
Edit: The above results were for the launch icon in my CS folder. I then went into a subfolder -- a separate Unit Viewer folder, within which was another launch icon, and I used that one, and it worked for all three (EF, WF, and RS). I'm thinking the launch icon in the CS folder was for the earlier version of the Unit Viewer, which was why it didn't work.

Ahaaa! You figured it out. Good for you Dean!

check if there is settings.txt file next to JTCS_UnitViewer.exe
If yes, delete it, maybe there is a wrong path stored for game directory
RE: JTCS Unit Viewer
I'm talking about the launch icon for the Unit Viewer. Within the Unit Viewer on the right is the "Play Game" button.
I thought it was odd too that it would work only for WF.
I don't know why I had a subfolder with a separate launch icon. I'm clumsy when downloading things, espcially when it requires unzipping. I learn computer stuff from trial and error. [Edit: Correction. Occasionally I impose on LarryP for advice. Good buddy that he is, he popped up here as well to try to help.]
Within the subfolder were three other files in addition to the launch icon, but I'm at work now, and I don't recall what the other three files were. I was thinking of copying and pasting the launch icon from the subfolder into the CS folder -- or maybe even to desktop if that isn't beyond my capabilities.
If the launch button was the same, this is curious.
The Unit Viewer is a great feature, Arkady. Thanks again.
