Map Log.exe has stopped working

[Kuros]

I've downloaded Atollski's navdata executable and unzipped it into my EM folder. Immediately upon opening the exe I get "Map Log.exe has stopped working." Any ideas on how to get past this?

Where did you download it from ? - Reason I'm asking is you can get it from seejays old site or a link in one of the forum threads that takes you to a rapidshare page or something like that.

I've found that the rapidshare one (It may not be that site can't remember but it's a site like that) has one which doesn't work at all but the source code there for v1 does if you compile it. There is also a v1.2 version on seejays old site, which to be honest I think is the same as the v1.0 source I mentioned and also works.

It might be that it is not configured correctly i.e. it needs to be able to find the savedata.txt file and a map log file for one of your saved profiles, you may need to update the config file manually ("map log.cfg") in notepad to point to the correct files.

Try this version: 1.5 for Windows - there are versions for the Mac and Linux as well from SeeJay's new site

Dave that's evometrics, I think kuros meant map log.exe as in Atollski's map log program. I believe it was sometimes referred to as the navdata program as it produced a navdata.txt file with manually logged info.

Just FYI kuros, evometrics is good too, but will show all logged systems from seejays communal database, so could be considered a spoiler.

Thank you. When I get the chance, I'll try looking into the map log.cfg file. It is the 1.2 version I downloaded from Seejay's site.

oops!



EDIT - I've downloaded the version from the thread and it runs without a problem. I'm just sorting out the various files (maplog.sw, navdata.txt) it needs to link to and then I'll check to to see if it works with EMII on my system
