Abandoned [RELEASE] Trade Computer Extension

Status
Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
A couple of small things to bring to your attention. I have recently reached the rank of Prince in the Empire Navy. In the log book it is spelt Price.
Upgrade TCE from 1.47 to 1.48 and used TDM to transfer the database, but excluded the unregistered stations. Now whatever I set my trade range to TCM seems to list all the stations I have visited regardless of distance. Check the screen shots:

Thanks for reporting.

Corrected both problems for the next update, comming this weekend.
 
Hi Eventure,
1 very small thing, in the Nav panel shows how many visits and the last time visited which on my 1.47 is an Hour behind - not important but was handy for checking cr/per/hr etc.

Has anyone had problems After installing W10 apart from me? which may anyway have been a Norton problem,?
Thanks#
 
Full Version (V1.49) released:



Changelog (incl. BETA):
- Added full german translation of TCE (selectable at the TCE setup).
- Reworked service symbols display at the Station Database panel.
- Fixed a problem with reference stars selection at the Star System Database panel.
- Fixed an error with the clipboard at the Star System Database panel.
- Fixed an issue with OCR in german or french language.
- Fixed an error in Star System Database panel on a fresh install of TCE (only one logbook entry present).
- Fixed a translation issue at the Navigation Route panel.
- Fixed an issue in start sequence.
- Fixed an issue in not displaying correctly the rare commodity at the Station Database panel.
- Fixed a spelling error for Prince rank at the Personal Roster panel.
- Fixed an issue with the Trade Range selection, when unregistered stations are not present at the database.

Note:
Please use the Transfer Database Manager (TDM) to make your database compatible with the actual version of TCE.

Help request:
The translation of TCE to french and russian language is incomplete at the moment, i need your help in finishing the gap here, because i can't speak/write french or russian.
If you like to help, please fill up the missing translations at the Language.mdb file, mainly the Interface table text. I have done the translation as far as i can, but please check the translations present at the file, if they are correct.
Please send me your translations and i will include them asap to the next beta versions.
To try your translations yourself, to check, if they fit into the current interface, please change the TCELanguage entry at the TCE.ini file to 'fre' for french or 'rus' for russian manually.
Thank you in advance for your help.
 
I am trying to install this program but it seems to be a nightmare.

I am stuck on the setup where I am supposed to enter the paths to "Netlog File Path" and "Appconfig file folder"

I have no idea where these are located and the install tutorials just seem to skip over this section.....like of course....everyone knows where these are located.

Can anyone give me an idea of where to find these locations.....thanks a bunch.

Hello,

did the auto-detect from the setup gives you no results (by selecting a drive letter, where you installed ED)?
Please be patient, if you selecting drive 'C'.
 
I am stuck on the setup where I am supposed to enter the paths to "Netlog File Path" and "Appconfig file folder"

It's where the game is installed. See my paths for example.

C:\Games\Frontier\EDLaunch\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1002\Logs

C:\Games\Frontier\EDLaunch\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1002

C:\Games\Elite Trading\TCE\EliteOCR
 
Just a quick note:

The Full-Version 1.49 installer: says that it will put 2 icons on the destop that we have to set to "Run as Admin" that should be change to 3 with the "Transfer Database Manager" icon.

Trade Computer Extension Setup V1.09

Interface Language

englis should be english

(h missing or not showing because of overlapping)

Hi again,

yep, thanks for the hint, will change it to '3' for the next full release. The missing 'h' is cutoff, because of your resolution. Next version of the setup provides a dropdown menu for interface and OCR language selection.
 
Full Version (V1.50) released:



Changelog:
- Added full french and spanish translation of TCE (selectable at the TCE setup), russian is still incomplete.
- Adjusted some textboxes and buttons in size because of translation text.
- Fixed some textboxes not recognized by translation routine.
- Updated TCE Setup (V1.10).

Note:
Please use the Transfer Database Manager (TDM) to make your database compatible with the actual version of TCE.
I want to thank User Auryn Of mordor and Bragolatch for their help in translating TCE to spanish and french. Great work indeed!

Hmmm, seems I've found a bug. Not sure if it's my version being odd or what, but trying to move the 'Personal Ship Logbook' window when the 'Personal Details' are displayed is crashing the script.

TCE Error4.jpg

TCE Error.jpg

TCE Error2.jpg

TCE Error3.jpg

Also, I'm still getting issues with the date on the events I add to the log. The 'Travel Logbook' is working fine, but the 'Activities' seem to add a day or more every time I close then reopen the software, for example (I've deleted all my old data as it was just causing me no end of issues)

When I add it;
TCE Error1a.jpg

After I close the software and reopen it:
TCE Error2a.jpg

Good news, at the end, i found the second issue with the incorrect date. The first error was obvious. Thanks for reporting. Update will come soon.
 
Update (V1.50a) released:



Changelog:
- Fixed an error, when moving the Personal Logbook panel with the mouse.
- Fixed a date issue in Activities of the Personal Logbook panel.

Note:
This update didn't need any TDM usage for your database. Copy the TCE.xlsm file into your TCE folder to update your version.

Hi Eventure,

adding station Levi-Montalcini city gave me an headache :p
Since I know a thing or two of databases (sadly nothing about macro's) and didn't want to wait using your awsome trade addon I opend up the TCE DB file(s).
Unaware I broke more then I fixed I noticed that the - was entered as a E. So I replaced all the E's with a space in all the files that had this station's name in it only to discover I get a ton of errors when I start TCE up....... rofl

Since I did not want to put back the file(s) from the backup folder (I entered a lot of trade data today) I made a copy of the backup, db and tdm folders, reinstalled TCE and put the folders I copied in the install folder.
So far all seems to work properly.....

Best regards,

Khaless
 
Hi Eventure,

Something in that update did not work well.... not sure what but I can no longer select my destination system as the panel it brings up has nothing there, yet the Current station I CAN change.

Also, bringing up the trade search and then looking at the trade window from a valid one, if you click the box to the right (Station notes?) of the destination system name, there is another script failure, same for the box on the left (star system notes?) of the destination system name.

Also, the 'Trade Overview' button on the main menu doesn't close that panel when clicked when that panel is open, although it does open it when it's not... it seems to be the only button on the main menu without the functionality to close a panel that's open.

Sorry for even more bug reports, but....

Eewec.

Hi again,

my Select Destination panel works fine, did you have cleared the unregistered station table?

The Trade panel note buttons (left or right / current or destination) works also. Points to a database problem.

What UI you are using?

Your reports are always welcome! Did you using the actual version?
Perhaps, pack your whole TCE folder (without backups and EliteOCR) and upload it, so i can check your problems. Feel free.

Hmmm I'll try a redownload of the files and see if that clears the issue then (and use my previous version to transfer all info up). I'll edit this to let you know how it goes.

EDIT: Ok, now here's the thing. Didn't bring the unregistered stations up through the upgrade, the 'Position Panel' that you get by clicking the current system panel brings up all 7 of my stations I have in this version. The 'Destination Panel' remains stubbornly blank.

I'm using version 1.50a upgraded from 1.48 beta 2 (do I need to upgrade 1.48 beta 2 to 1.49 then 1.50 version to get it working?)

EDIT the 2nd; I'm having exactly the same issue trying to get version 1.49 working.

From version 1.49 (though is the same issue in 1.50 / 1.50a);

Current Position (What's Rabatt?);
TCE Error Working.jpg

Destination (V1.49 ->);
TCE Error Destination.jpg

Destination (V1.48 Beta 2);
TCE Error Destination working.jpg

Lastly 'Trade Scout' -> 'Bidirectional Trades' -> Bring up a valid trade in the search -> Select the trade -> 'Preview Trade Route' -> 'Star System Notes' or 'Station Notes' for the Destination system only causes a script failure.

EDIT: Sorry found another one, the tooltip for the move button on the Hud Display Panel shows 'Hide Hud Display Panel'.

Hey Eewec,

I just upgraded to 1.50a and pressed no when TCM asked me to transfer the unregisterd stations. This resulted in the same problem you have. I then did another transfer selecting yes when promted and TCE works fine again.

Hi Khaless,

Ahh.... Hmmm, trouble is I don't have unregistered stations in my older copies of TCE as I've not bought them forward in any of the upgrades since the first version I used and clicking yes on a fresh version doesn't seem to include them. *scratches head* I'm lost as to how to get round this issue. That said, at the end of it all I could always start fresh with the software as I've not actually moved around a lot as yet, just stuck to the trade routes I'd already found before I started using TCE. Now I just have to remember how to start fresh ;p.

Regards,

Eewec.

P.S. A message for Eventure: On a slightly related note to the above, as a feature request, is there any chance of being able to give TCE some starting figures for the various stats etc that you can then work from, instead of having to give it false trading/mission/bounty/etc data so it's in line with E: D when you first start using it?

Found the issue, next update will fix it.
You can't add unregistered stations again, once you cleared them from your database. Will fix the question display in TDM for the next full release.

Lastly 'Trade Scout' -> 'Bidirectional Trades' -> Bring up a valid trade in the search -> Select the trade -> 'Preview Trade Route' -> 'Star System Notes' or 'Station Notes' for the Destination system only causes a script failure.

No error here, please can you give me a screenshot of the error and the codeline, where the error happens (press debug and highlight the codeline). Thanks

EDIT: Sorry found another one, the tooltip for the move button on the Hud Display Panel shows 'Hide Hud Display Panel'.

Found and fixed for the next update.

Hmm, all statistics are generated out of the entered data of your activities. So i think it is not possible. Sorry.
