Day/night cycle still not satisfying
Griz:
perhaps a VB problem ...
can you load in version 2.37.6?
or other versions?
I've searched my entire computer for TABLE32.OCX with no finds.
Testlund:
Ok, the files that VB is looking for when trying to open the sorcecode are the followings:
TABCTL32.OCX
RICHTX32.OCX
It also generated some logfiles with the following.
robdata.log:
Line 33: Class RichTextLib.RichTextBox of control dnatext was not a loaded control class.
console.log:
Line 17: Class RichTextLib.RichTextBox of control Text1 was not a loaded control class.
OptionsForm.log:
Line 78: Class TabDlg.SSTab of control SSTab1 was not a loaded control class.
Line 2957: Class RichTextLib.RichTextBox of control CommentBox was not a loaded control class.
LogForm.log:
Line 17: Class RichTextLib.RichTextBox of control TextBox was not a loaded control class.
I tried both version 2.4.A and 2.4.9. The same happens to both. Looks to me they have gotten screwd up on the server. I will try 2.37 version too....
Ok, the same result with 2.37.6 too. VB is looking for files that don't exists.
Well, the files TABCTL32.OCX and RICHTX32.OCX are VB6 files. They are there but VB can't load them for some reason. Also the installer is totally screwed up, but I've managed to run VB6 without installing it and it has worked fine before.
EricL:
The missing OCXs are part of the VB6 runtime. They are placed into the Windows System32 directory by the VB installer when VB is installed. Without them, no VB6 application will compile correctly.
The VB6 install on the download portion of the site has a bunch of things removed from it like help files to keep it small, so you do get errors when you install, but if you just hit ignore on all of those, it should complete okay and it should place these files in the system32 directory.
I'm almost certain the problems you are having are because VB6 didn't get installed right and these files didn't get laided down. You might try installing VB again....
Testlund:
Ok, I've done all the procedures I'm supposed to, but the installer fails to put some files into the registry and the program never gets installed. But I HAVE been able to use this program WITHOUT installing it. For some reason it doesn't work now.
Griz:
that's what I'm thinking as well.
btw Eric ...
I put in all the changes so far, [I think] ...
and still have problems with leagues ...
but then I never did figure out how they were supposed to work.
have been playing with it to see what comes up ...
InstaWin no longer crashes, and seems to work for the first
contest, but after that it doesn't do anything as far as I can see.
but then, I have other problems ...
I used 'swarm' in a simple test league that uses the top four F1 bots ...
and swarm gets his butt kicked in the first contest ..
but then is still the contending bot in the next contest ...
but with zero population. so it's like the 4th place bot is the only
one in the contest. and here, Instawin doesn't do anything ...
the rounds seem to go on forever ...
seeming as there is no one to 'beat'. ;)
didn't have time to just let it keep running ...
maybe I'll try that tonite when I am getting my needed beautysleep.
so ... I still don't know how Leagues is supposed to work ...
I don't think I've ever seen it do what it's supposed to.
anybody got any hints on how to set up a simple 4 bot league
and have the bots run off?
I notice there are other intended options ghosted out ...
the only thing I get is the 'challenge mode' ...
and I'm not sure what that means.
there is also 'ladder' and 'last man standing' and 'free-for-all'
what's it all mean, mr. natural????
