After update, no longer records #8

The autoupdater ran, I didn't get a chance to read the patch notes. I tried to record a sequence with vdm files, but no .tga files were created anywhere, and recording with vdms was working yesterday. Pressing P to record manually doesn't work at all either

Thank you for reporting this, I found the cause and will be pushing an update in a few minutes.

If you still can't record while watching demos without a .vdm file by pressing P then re-open this issue. I don't think recording with P is supposed to work while watching demos with the vdm file "running". If that's not the case tell me. Thanks

I had this issue, so I decided to reinstall lawena and now I get this error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.threerings.getdown.launcher.GetdownApp at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at com.exe4j.runtime.LauncherEngine.launch(Unknown Source) at com.exe4j.runtime.WinLauncher.main(Unknown Source)

Most likely you are missing a file (lawena/getdown-client.jar), Re-extract all contents to a clean folder, not just the .exe

BitComet commented 11 years ago

Apparently when I extracted lawena it somehow lost the lawena folder and only left me with .exe and readmes, thanks for such a quick response, cheers.

(re-extracted, got lawena-folder)

I still can't record with P, I had a bind on it, changed it and I still can't record.

VDMs don't work, will not let me add to queue. It just says in the box next to the demo's name; Could not retrieve demo details.

For the first issue can you check if 'startrecording' command works from the console? Maybe the files (recbindings.cfg and others) weren't copied to tf/cfg.

The second thing is interesting, are you selecting the .dem through Browse button? If that's correct, can you send me the log output when it says "Could not retrieve demo details"?. Thanks

And this thread is cool but don't be afraid to create a new issue if the initial description does not fit your problem.
