Title: New Installer for Darwinbots 2
Post by: Shasta on April 30, 2011, 03:14:22 AM
Hello everyone, I've been meaning to get this out to you guys for a while now. I have created a new installer for Darwinbots 2, it will register all of the components DB needs to run (no more command required prompt to install!). This version also has much stronger, modern bots included with it. Please report any problems you have with it, and I will do my best to fix them.


Download Darwinbots 2 Setup (http://www.darwinbots.com/FTP/Darwinbots-2-Setup.exe)


On another note, I broke internet mode again a while back. Sorry. I will try to get it back and running within the next week or two.

Just out of curiosity; what does "DBLaunch" do?

It will launch the newest version of Darwinbots you have placed in the folder. Its basically so the start menu link works after updating to a newer version of DB.

I thought it would do something like that... does it automatically update or...?

Thank you!  It was really helpful, and the newer bots are appreciated.

After install, when starting new sim, an error occured stating "tabctl32.ocx or one of it's components is not properly registered: file not found"
I'm running windows xp SP 3

See this topic.  It should have happened as part of the installation but it apparently didn't for whatever reason.

Thank You, but I don't have administrator privilegies and cannot obtain them (work computer, bah...) Any way to bypass it?

Yeah, the installer isn't really appropriate, then.  Instead of the installer, just use a copy of a Darwinbots install from another computer.  You can try copying the ocx into the Darwinbots directory.  I don't know if it'll work, but I suspect it will.

There is a new 2.45.03 installer available on the wiki.
