i have the same error :(

Same error
 

Hi,



I keep having the same error as well.. Did not have this error before version 0.93e, but with 0.93e,f and 0.95a it stays.

Regards!

my isp is having problems right now, hopefully by morning i will be fully back online and i can give you a solution.

Humudce, I didn't even see a listing for Microsoft VM under Advanced in IE Tool/Options. I read each line from top to bottom and notta. There was also no mention of JIT in the list.

Taco, all files are there. Here's a screenshot in case you can get something from it that I wouldn't know about



Using our home network, I transferred the updater compressed file to my husband's computer from mine instead of downloading it directly on his PC. I thought this would test whether or not my download was corrupt. I installed it on his system, ran it and it works like a dream. I checked for MS VM and JIT on his Advance tab in IE and there's nothing there either.

My PC Technical info:

• Win XP Pro SP2 w/all updates
• AMD Athlon FX-53 64 bit processor
• 2 gig PC3200 HyperX RAM
• 2x 180 gig HD (RAID 0)
• GeForce 6800 GT 256
• SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS
• ANTEC TRUE 550 watt ATX Power supply
• ASUS SK8N Motherboard

I'd be interested to know what others who are getting this error message have in common with my system. Not sure if that matters or not since it seems like a software thing on our side but maybe something we installed that came with the hardware... I dunno. :confused:

Oh yeah, if I click Cancel on the first error message (just like what's posted above), this is the next window that comes up.



Thanks for the quick replies.

Wow this one has me puzzled, but it's late...

Ok all of those having this error, I wonder if it could be some type of security setting causing this? Do you have full Admin Access on this computer? Also do you have a firewall running, if so the one with SP2 or a 3rd Party one? If you have a Firewall running and it didn't popup a message saying that this application is trying to access the internet, you may need to go in and manually allow this program to access the internet. Attached is a screenshot of the IE Tools, Internet Options, Advanced window showing the JIT.

Also you may want to try this download 1st,

and this one 2nd.

I am not getting anytype of error like this but I am running the .Net 2.0 Beta 1 on my system.

Feature Request/Loss
 

Please forgive me if this is the wrong spot to post this, this is my first posting. First of all I truly enjoy using the EQ2MapMod you all have put wonderful effort into... that being said I have a question.

Tonight I updated the Eq2 Map file as well as installed teh auto updater... unfortunately it appears that my map has now lost the ability to be minimized into a bar as it had been before. I am not sure if that feature was due to the original EQ2Map or a feature of Fetish's Complete set interface.

Please advise if there is a way to correct this (I am a non-programmer user of mods, not a creator). I attempted to reverse the ...mainmap.xml file, but the updater will overwrite any backtracking I have tried to reobtain this feature.

Thank you for your time and keep up the great work!

grrrr
 

i have instal the service pack
i have no firewall and full acces to me pc (admn )
and i have the error box egain ^^ :(

You will probably need to follow the links that Humduce posted and get the .NET framework if you are getting the errors.

For those of you experiencing the wierd error, i found this when i used google. i dont know wether or not it will fix your problem since i cant duplicate your problem so i have no way of testing it.
below is what it said:
-------------
As to .NET Framework: your error is fairly common.
I found the following fix:

With info from tech support I have solved the problem.

1) From Microsoft Support Site
-Download and install the Windows Installer Clean Up Utility in order to
remove all MS .Net Framework items.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;290301)

2) Rename your C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET folder to Microsoft.NET.old.1

3) From Microsoft download Site - Download & Install & Restart:
a) Windows Installer 2.0 (if you don't already have it.)
b) Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package
c) Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1.

(Allow a good bit of time for all this.)

help me please..
 

Hello. I downloaded the .net framework, downloaded the eq2map beta updater, installed it to C:\EverQuest II\UI\eq2map , then ran it, let it update, and it auto-launched EQ2. My problem is when i open my map up, nothing is different. :( Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make it show up? Thanks.

The eq2map folder should go in your Default folder under the UI folder, or your custom UI folder, like UI/Mook/eq2map

It should not be put directly in your UI folder, but in a sub-folder.

It'd be nice if the Updater could be ran from the default install folder (C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest II) and update any versions of EQ2 Map you have in any custom UI folders. The reason I say this is because I switch between 3 different custom UIs, and it's "awkward" to have to run the updater from each custom UI folder before I switch UIs. ;)

But how do you switch UIs? You could just have a 3 versions of a script (or one script with an argument) that copies the appropriate eq2.ini into the main directory, then runs the appropriate instance of the autoupdater. Then you would just double click on an icon to start everything, just like everyone else.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the EQ2MAP folder should not be in your DEFAULT UI folder, as each time EQ2 Updates via the LaunchPad, it is going to overwrite the EQ2MAP modified eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml file, basically you will only have the functionality of the Default In-Game Map, with out the additions provided by the EQ2MAP version of the eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml file.

The EQ2MAP functions correctly if you place the file within your UI folder in a Custom Folder where your other modifications reside, and what is called out in the eq2.ini file. The entire process of setting up and installing UI mods is located here ....

http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/f...q_new_faq_item

Dismember it sounds like you need to setup the eq2.ini to point to this eq2map folder. If you do not have any other mods installed if you do have a custom UI folder with other mods you would need to unzip the files into this custom UI mod folder.

Instructions on how to setup the eq2.ini can be found here...
http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/f...q_new_faq_item

Grymmtooth

What folder did you unzip the files into? The program needs to be unziped into the folder where your Custom UI is at. Unzipping the files into the UI\Default folder will cause the eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml file to be overwritten by the Default eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml every time the EQ2 Launchpad is run.

For help on installing UI Mods please see this link

http://www.eq2interface.com/forums/f...q_new_faq_item

That would be a really cool feature, to have the EQ2MAP updater to scour your hard drive to see where all versions are installed and update all folders but at this time I have a feeling that it's out of the scope of this project.

Maybe you could write it into your script that switches between your 3 UI's that when you switch UI's it runs the updater with the command line that either autolaunches EQ2 or doesn't depending on your preferences.

i eventually have plans to make it run from anywhere however i want to make sure i have all (or at least almost all of the bugs) taken care of before i make more :)

I didn't think it was too much to ask, but apparently it was to some. Thanks for the reply, Taco-Man.

PS: I switch UIs by editing the eq2.ini file, not by any elaborate or otherwise complicated fashion.

give it a week or 2 and i may have a better solution than what you are asking for, i cant go into details because i dont know if it will work for sure or not, but if it does expect it to be almost impossible to install my updater wrong.

I downloaded and ran both of those. Each said I already had it but I told it to do it again. Here's a screenie of the missing JIT. Would like to know how to get that tho. I don't think it's the culprit since it's not on my husband's system and his runs the updater perfectly.



I am the admin on the system and the only firewall is the one with SP2. I got no popups about the proggy. Same setup on my husband's computer and he didn't get a firewall popup either. /boggle

i have try is not the solution :( i have alway the error box

do you have a dell by chance? if you do apparently the "dell support" program casues this error.
Go to Start|Control Panel|Add or Remove Programs and uninstall Dell Support

Just finished following the steps here and I get the same error.

Nope, custom built by ABS PC

Wow this one has me stumped but we will get to the bottom of it.

Annabettin how different are yours and you husband's computer? It's odd that it runs on his and not yours. :(... I'll keep looking for a possible solution.

Not too much diff on the specs. We bought them at the same time last year so neither is old. He runs Intel P4, I run AMD. He runs Radeon and I run GeForce. Sound cards are the same. RAM is the same. I have a DVD burner, he doesn't. We're both on XP Pro SP2. His system is for gaming and net browsing only. I do graphics and video on mine in addition to gaming. I have other things on mine that his doesn't like a pen tablet for the graphics, a movie box for getting analog video in the system and back out after editing....*thinking*....also on mine is the printer with card reader slots. It has sep. drivers for the 'removable media storage'.

I haven't coded anything in a few years but none of that is raising a red flag on possible culprits. I went from XP Pro base to SP2 in one fail swoop. So last night, I took it back to XP Pro base, installed SP1a, then installed SP2 and all the updates just in case there was an oddball thing missed. After posting this, I'm going to make sure I have the latest Java installed and see what I can find out on getting that MS JIT and/or VM on the options.

I really appreciate the persistance in finding the solution. :)

It's early and I'm not really awake yet, but didn't you mention running a 64-bit processor earlier? Does your husband run a 64-bit as well?

From Microsoft: link
Note: The .NET Framework 1.1 Redistributable cannot be installed on 64-bit computers; Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server is not supported

Silly question, but what exactely is that on the ground beside the taco? lol

Have you been eating crayons again?

It's an Ice Cream Taco, duh. :p

We're getting overrun
 

Yes there are actually getting to be so many POI's its getting hard to see. If I'm thinking right, it shouldnt be too hard to make the filtering.

Wouldnt it simply be an oncheck(whatever it is):

Show NPCs>OnCheck EveryPOI that is a NPC.visible=true
Show NPCs>OnUNcheck EveryPOI that is a NPC.visible=false

and so on where itd be like
Show NPCs>Oncheck
Thisguy.visible=false
Otherguy.visible=false
anotherguy.visible=false
andanother.visible=false
....
...
...

This is highly possible if we can just get a format worked out for it. The database and the PHP can write all this stuff on it's own where it would be WAAAAY too much for us to do manually. Let me know if I'm wrong or what you have to say about this.

I'm almost done implementing Talyns suggestions. After that while I look at Zonx has cooked up I'll make up a button template for showing/hiding POIs. It'll work as follows:

On the map there will be a small square button in the upper left (like the toggles for the zone connection overlay maps).

When you press this button it will expand a little square window that will list all of the POI types: NPC, NAME, ZONE, QST, LOC, etc.

You press one of those buttons and it will toggle the visiblility of all of that type of POI.

---

The auto-generated side of the code will be like so:

The website goes through the POIs for that zone.
It checks the type of the POI then adds it to the OnActivate event for that button.

I'll have a very specific example with code and such ready later today.

This is why each POI needed a unique name; without one (or if it's the same as another POI on the same page), we can't sort them.

Quib

erm...hmmm...that was meant to be a PM to quib...whoops...

Great Job !!!
 

:) :)
Really a great job : that's something I was missing from EQ 1, so you did it !!

Very nice.

Just one comment from my side : if the autoupdater UI would have a 1280 * 1024 version, so I can see the whole text on my screen, it would just be perfect.

Thanks again for the good work !!

updater now detects everquest directory and what custom ui directory you are using. check the update notes for more details.

updater now detects everquest directory and what custom ui directory you are using. check the update notes for more details.

Please make this optional... I run the map updater on a Virtual PC (which, of course doesn't have EQ2 installed on it) and then copy the files over to my real computer.

No offense to you or anything, but I won't run anything I download from an EQ fan site on my actual machine.

Currently, I just created a text file and named it EverQuest2.exe and pointed the updater to that.

Just so you know how your user base is using what you've made; I don't run the auto-updater for my main UI folder. I have a second UI folder to grab the auto-downloaded files. My concern isn't with the security of the executable, but I wanna make sure I don't accidentally overwrite a file I'm experimenting with in regards to EQ2MAP. Also, I never "installed" EQ2 on the computer I play on; I just copied the folder over my network. Am checking out the newest version of the auto-updater to see how it copes with that.

Quib

I, the average user, just wants to play the damn game. I run the updater, launch eq, and look at the pretty POI's. I have no qualms about how this is turning out. I actually think it is great.

Well said. This application should be more for the average user and less for those with special circumstances.

Well done, Taco. :nana:
