Tobi's "Rapid" program for windows

[Satirik]

Which dll and things? Where do they come from? From Spring installer? From rapid.zip? From library.zip you told me not to unzip (and which doesn't help when unzipped)? Am I supposed to have python installed on my machine beforehand? To get some redistributable framework MS thingy everybody is supposed to already have these days?

my msg was deleted by a r******* moderator, but he is just talking about the files in the archive, but since he can't see all of them, THEY MUST NOT ALL BE IN THE DIR !!!

In the rapid.zip there are a bunch of libraries and things. Those are absolutely necessary. If you look at the error, its telling you that it can't find a module, ergo, its missing something that should be there but isn't.

Loving the blurred out folder names in your screenshots Z =)

I never had the gui version or multiple-files-in-the-zip version of rapid for windows working, but the 0.43 exe by abma (placed in spring dir) was working fine.
(At least after installing Microsoft Visual Studio libs, would be nice if the dll were packaged inside, it would have avoided the problem zwzsg had)

Since the update to spring 0.82.7 it doesn't anymore. Very sad

With 0.43 (in Spring Engine dir) I now get :

[removed the usual verbose about the checked directories as it shows the right ones]

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "rapid.py", line 75, in <module>
  File "rapid\unitsync\api.pyo", line 80, in get_writable_data_directory
  File "rapid\unitsync\unitsync.pyo", line 182, in Init
ValueError: Procedure probably called with not enough arguments (4 bytes missing)

With the rapid.exe provided with the installer (in Spring Engine\rapid) I get :

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\Console.py", line 27, in <module>
  File "bin/rapid", line 7, in <module>
  File "Z:\python\rapid\rapid\ui\text\main.py", line 117, in main
  File "Z:\python\rapid\rapid\unitsync\api.py", line 83, in get_writable_data_directory
  File "Z:\python\rapid\rapid\unitsync\unitsync.py", line 183, in Init
ValueError: Procedure probably called with not enough arguments (4 bytes missing)

I get this whatever argument I supply to both, when showing the list of the commands there is no error (but it's useless).
I see both relate to unitsync...

Also I see http://pypi.python.org/pypi/rapid-spring/0.5.1 is already @ version 0.51 instead of 0.43, could it be what makes the problem ?

PS: the gui version provided by the installer only show a windows with 2 white zones and a "downloading" message, indefinitely, no error message, no hang, nothing.
Help !

EDIT :

rapid.exe from http://www.evolutionrts.info/random/rapid.zip gives that :

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Python26\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\Console.py", line 27, in <module>

this problems could be fixed by this commit:
https://github.com/spring/spring/commit ... 2559d41bf3

next bugfix-release should come very soon...

[koshi]

yes, it will be fixed with 0.82.7.1

[Zydox]

Does that mean that I'll continue seeing all the errors from unitsync when it tried to read the mapoptions?

[abma]

@Zydox: to few infos... when do you get errors? what are you doing? which version are you using?


with 0.82.7.1 most unitsync problems should be gone...

[koshi]

you should be able to disable all log output by exporting SPRING_LOGSYSTEMS=none (not sure on the real name) and before launch
