First, let me say that this has been the single most usefull plugin I've seen in a long time.


Which is why I'm very saddened to report the following:


I'm experiencing a consistent crash with GoArrow v1.1.0.1


I've tried the solution posted above this one, and turned off automatically updating recal locations, and that saved me for a while, but now I'm running into a new issue, I've pasted the latest entry from the errors.txt file from the GoArrow directory:


===[ 6/14/2006 9:43:21 AM - GoArrow v1.1.0.1 ]========================

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at GoArrow.PluginCore.SaveSettings() in PluginCore.Settings.cs:line 502


If you need any more information from me, ask. I'l be watching this thread.


Thanks again for a great tool

Mutski, read up a few posts in this thread...you'll see I had that problem and you'll see the solution posted by Digero.

First. Thanks for one of the best plug-ins available.


I have the problem where it reads my current coords as 0.0, 0.0, and never updates them. I tried reinstalling goarrow and it didn't seem to fix it. Here are the 2 error messages from the errors.txt file. The first one was listed twice, and the second one was listed 4 times. I hope this is helpful.


===[ 6/10/2006 10:46:13 AM - GoArrow v1.1.0.1 ]========================

Thanks for your time, the plug-in, and for being so helpful.

Mutski, read up a few posts in this thread...you'll see I had that problem and you'll see the solution posted by Digero.


Giving that a try, thanks.


Sorry about the redundant question, it got blended with his sig in my eyes

The second error is the same as Schugeldson and Mutski had. Remove every recent coordinate entry that doesn't have an icon on the left (lower list on the Atlas > Recent tab). If that doesn't fix it, log out of AC, open settings.xml in the GoArrow folder, and delete everything between the lines "<recentCoords>" and "</recentCoords>"


Does the first error happen any time other than when you're trying to update the locations database? Can you get to http://www.acspedia.com in your web browser? In any case, that shouldn't cause many problems.


As for the arrow not updating, neither of those error messasges should cause that. Could you post an export? (open Decal, click Export, paste here).

acspedia updating works fine. It was just down one evening when I tried it. Here is my decal export:

The only thing that jumps out at me from your export is all of the plugins with <No Version>, but they're all disabled so those shouldn't cause problems...


Does the arrow rotate when you turn? If you open the Dereth map and check the "Center on player" option, does it center on where you actually are, or show you at 0.0, 0.0? Does the dereth map work at all?

 

-----signature-----

Yeah I have a few out-dated plug-ins on my list from my upgrade to alpha 7. They are all disabled, so shouldn't cause problems.


The on-screen arrow does move, and the dereth/dungeon maps do come up.


I can't remember if it centers on 0.0 or not, I'll have to check later when I have time. I'll check it out and then post again a little later tonight.

 

-----signature-----

Ok, maybe deleting those recent coord entries from the .xml did it because it was all working fine last night. It never crashed once. I think between deleting those entries from the .xml, and turning off the auto-updating recall option fixed me up.


Thanks again for your help, and for the great plug-in.

 

-----signature-----

Yes, I had to do both, as well. Works great, and is rapidly becoming my favorite plugin...especially since I am directionally challenged, and I never fail to start running in the opposite direction of where I need to go. Thanks Digero, this is a GREAT plugin!
