I double click the witcher3mapviewer app and the first time it worked immediately and i set it to automatic and it closed. After that i cannot open it.

I have never seen this behavior. Can you please delete your settings and retry? Did you receive an error?

How do i delete the settings? I did not get an error at any point.

Assuming you are on a modern version of Windows, it's C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Witcher3MapViewer

A number of pieces of information would help me in assessing why this is happening: Which version of Windows are you on? Is it 64 or 32 bit? Which version of .net do you have installed? Which version of the game do you have installed? Through which service?

Also please attach your most recent save file to the post so I can do some forensics.

If the issue persists, it would be helpful for you to clone the repo and try launching it in VS so that you get debug messages.

i am on windows 10 and am using 64 bit. I have the most recent witcher 3 update through steam. unsure about which .net i have, I also cannot attach the save file for some reason but if it helps i am about 2/3 of the way done through the game

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

i now can open the map in manual mode but cannot actually check off the quests

reubengann commented 5 years ago

If the process is failing to parse your save file then I would actually need that file to troubleshoot.

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

github is not letting me add the file

reubengann commented 5 years ago

Ok, please email the latest save and status.dat from your program folder to reubengann@gmail.com

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

where is the status.dat?

reubengann commented 5 years ago

Yours is the first save file I have seen where the typecode can consist of 40 00 00 00 13 00 00 00 a3 00 00 00 instead of 40 00 00 00 12 00 00 00 a3 00 00 00. Can you provide any additional information why that might be? Are you in NewGame+? Is this a different region perhaps?

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

i honestly have no idea, i am not in NG+ and i can only think of the fact that i have all the dlc as anything that might change it

reubengann commented 5 years ago

Can you compile the app with the new commit and see if that fixes your issue? It works on my system now.

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

how would i do that?

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

also sorry for being pretty tech illiterate with this stuff

reubengann commented 5 years ago

It's fine. I added a pre-release to the releases. Can you try it out?

RatQueen1 commented 5 years ago

it worked! Thank you so much!

reubengann commented 5 years ago

Thanks for reporting. On next release (whenever that happens...) I'll add better notification when a file read fails.
