January 20, 201016 yr January 10th I restarted the attempt to make a 32-bit scenario editor based on the current codebase. That day saw the development environment configured well enough to start compiling. Ended up at 39 errors, 667 warnings during compilation. For reference, the program doesn't get to run and go down in flames until there are 0 compilation errors. January 20th update: 23 errors, 652 warnings, progress...
January 20, 201016 yr Thanks, Tony. To borrow a little from Winston: "Never in the field of [HCE] was so much owed by so many to so few".
January 23, 201016 yr Hi Tony, January 10th I restarted the attempt to make a 32-bit scenario editor based on the current codebase. That day saw the development environment configured well enough to start compiling. Ended up at 39 errors, 667 warnings during compilation. For reference, the program doesn't get to run and go down in flames until there are 0 compilation errors. January 20th update: 23 errors, 652 warnings, progress... That is excellent news! A decent scen edit with a halfways modern GUI would be great for HCE. When writing my last scens I always became a little depressed using this terrible outdated tool. Best Regards, Ralf
January 23, 201016 yr Thanks, Tony. To borrow a little from Winston: "Never in the field of [HCE] was so much owed by so many to so few". +1 But your name has to be added, Brad. Been out of Harpoon scenario creation for some time, but restarted working on several ANW and HCE scens.
March 7, 201016 yr Author Great news. Retaining my old PCs meanwhile .... Hehe, that's a good retort!
November 19, 201015 yr Great news. Retaining my old PCs meanwhile .... Hehe, that's a good retort! Any news regarding the 32bit scenario editor?
November 19, 201015 yr Author No, got sidetracked by other stuff. It has become so much easier to run the existing SE in a virtual environment that I feel less and less inclined to pour time into a conversion of the existing SE code. That's not to say the idea is dead, just on pause for the moment.
November 22, 201015 yr I tried running the Scenario Editor in the Virtual Machine environment, and it's working. Machine has Windows 7 pro, and an XP emulation. My current XP desktop (8 years old) is running into some OS corruption issues and will be undergoing "staged retirement". Just remember that you have to do an install onto the virtual machine, not just the Windows 7.
January 1, 201214 yr Hi gkm, I tried running the Scenario Editor in the Virtual Machine environment, and it's working. Machine has Windows 7 pro, and an XP emulation. My current XP desktop (8 years old) is running into some OS corruption issues and will be undergoing "staged retirement". Just remember that you have to do an install onto the virtual machine, not just the Windows 7. How to do that?I just bought a new PC, running Win 7 HP 64bit and the scenario editor no longer runs. How to make it happen? tia Ralf
January 1, 201214 yr How to do that?I just bought a new PC, running Win 7 HP 64bit and the scenario editor no longer runs. How to make it happen?tia Ralf Ralf, it has to be either Win 7 Professional or Ultimate. I've been using the SE with Win 7 Pro 64 bit for a long time now. Windows Virtual PC
January 1, 201214 yr I have win 7, and the xp compatibility mode does not have the scen editor working. Am i doing something wrong? is the only option to have a virtual pc? thanks
