Old - I knew there was something. It seems to work now. Thanks

I downloaded and installed 2.0.0, and have partial success, but I am unsure how to get the old quickstart scenarios to work. The new installation comes with empty maps and scenario folders. I copied the old maps from the old installation "maps" folder into the "maps" folder under Simplot_2_0_0, and was able to create a new scenario using an old map. Note that these maps include those used for the Quickstart Scenarios. However, when I copied the content of the "scenarios" folder from the old installation into Simplot_2_0_0 and tried to run the "Baltic_Brawl" , I get an error: "LOADING MAP... An exception of class OutOfBoundsException was not handled. The application must shut down." I also tried extract the Quickstart_scenarios.zip file into SP2_0_0 What am I doing wrong?

I had trouble starting a scenario with the latest version (64-bit). I downloaded all of the files and extracted them into one folder. This resulted in separate folders for each of the .zip files. I chose "new scenario" and entered "Test" as the scenario name. I left the time as the default and went to "Scenario Map" to choose one of the quickstart scenario maps. However, the only option for select files that I saw was for .txt files. There was no option for .png files (which have the actual map graphics). I chose one and received error messages such as "Error Running the GetMap" method. Looking in the quickstart folder, I see that the maps have both .png files and .txt files. I then went to open one of the quickstart scenarios tried to load the Baltic Brawl scenario. I received "Error at JsonFile.Referee.LoadScenario", followed by "Error during the Game.Map.Draw method. However, it then showed that the units had loaded. What am I doing wrong. I want to be able to: a) Load existing scenarios b) create a map using a .png file of my own creation. All I get is errors. Do the extracted maps and scenarios need to be extracted into the same directory as the Simplot executable?

Aha - found it. All the .dlls need to be in a folder Simplot2 Libs. It is now working.

I have had some trouble installing SImplot 2 in Windows 10. I put it in its own directory and clicked non SimPlot2.exe. At that point I get a series of errors all of the type: Runtime Error: Common\plugin.cpp:990 Failure Condition: pluginEntryTable.GetEntry(entrypointName, out) can't find plugin method BevelButton.DeleteAllRows I am somewhat familiar with Xojo (in fact I have it loaded and have done some development with it) and this error, and it looks as if there is a library or folder ("Common\"?) that it needs to run. Should I be doing something other than just dumping the files into their own folder?

I just downloaded Simplot 2 0.3.1 (Windows) and extracted it to its own folder. However when I tried to run it, it failed with Runtime errors all of which indicated that the plugin for the BevelButton was missing. The first message that occurred: Common\plugin.cpp 990 Failure Condition: pluginEntryTable.GetEntry(entrypointName, out) can't find plugin method BevelButton.DeleteAllRows Is something missing in the distribution package or the environment? I am running Windows 10 and actually have Xojo installed (I saw the Xojo related .dll).
