Just got Pro & having a problem

Postby Urlord » Wed Oct 11, 2006 2:52 am

I generated an area and saved the project. Now when I try to go back and open it I get the follow errors:

Climate #0 ('Temperate') in project file was not found in the application climate list.

Climate #1 ('Temperate (coastal)') in project file was not found in the application climate list.

Here is a copy of the Error Log:

Code: Select all
SetActiveFormatFor error
 - could not get formats list

SetActiveFormatFor error
 - could not get formats list

CMapGroup::LoadProjectFile error
 - application climate list is empty!

CMapGroup::OpenGroup error:
 - Error loading project file

CL3DTApp::LoadWindowsIni error:
 - file not found

L3DTxml_ReadFile error:
 - cannot open file for reading

CL3DTApp::LoadClimateIni error:
 - error reading climates.ini.xml

'C:\Documents and Settings\Jim\Desktop\Haven Maps\Settings\schemes.ini' was not found

L3DTxml_WriteFile error:
 - cannot open file for writing

CL3DTApp::SaveFormatsIni error
 - Call to L3DTxml_WriteFIle failed

CMapGroup::LoadProjectFile error
 - application climate list is empty!

CMapGroup::OpenGroup error:
 - Error loading project file


I could use a little help here!
Peace,

Hi Ulord,

At first glance it looks like the working directory of L3DT is all messed up. It appears to be starting in 'C:\Documents and Settings\Jim\Desktop\Haven Maps', and not 'C:\Program Files\Bundysoft\L3DT [version]', where it was presumably installed. How are you starting the executable? (desktop link / menu link / double-clicking on the executable in Explorer) It could be I've botched the path in one of those links. If it is a fault with those links, I'll upload an updated installer as soon as possible. In any case, starting L3DT by double clicking on the L3DT.exe file in Explorer should always work.

It would help in debugging if you could send me a copy of the 'debug.dat' file from the L3DT installation path (to aaron@bundysoft.com).

Best regards,
Aaron.

Ok - I had set up L3DT to be the default program for tile types *.proj and I was trying to open it by double clicking my project file. When I start L3DT via the desktop icon and then open the project, it works just fine. Therefore, it was my fault. Thanks.
Peace,

Hi Jim,

Oops, I kind of forgot about opening files that way. The latest version (v2.4b RC 1.1) can open files like this, or by drag-n-drop on L3DT, and the installer (optionally) associates '.proj', '.mmf', '.hff', '.ter', and '.bt' with L3DT. You can run batch files this way too (they're '.run' and '.def.xml').

Best regards,
Aaron.
