Cate help

Post by Red Dog »

I'm struggling with cate to supply a good image for the kneemap.

I tried both the supplied examples and one conf file from SnakeMan but it seems I have some problems related to the bmp file.

If I use straight away the conf file, Cate tells me that it's unable to open (create) the bmp file.

If I edit the path to somewhere on my harddisk (c:\ODS-cate.bmp for instance) where the bmp already exists, it tells me: Error d'execution 9
Indice en dehors de la plage

Must be something like error runtime 9
....

I'm definitely no programmer :D

Does the bmp needs to be at a particular place,...
Any good tutorial on how to do just that?

Thanks
RD

Sorry for the late answer, Red Dog ...

Can you post here your conf file, and tell me where/when exactly CATE crashes ?

Thanks.

Regards.

Hi Red Dog, are you still here ? :)

Did you solve your problem or not ?

Regards.

Works great under win2k2y2y2. Its much faster than with win98se and Widowmaker just discovered that the 256 segment L2 cannot be processed under win98se so I had to do it to his Iceland L2 under win2k2y2.

I highly recommend it.

And if you mean by you cannot run it under win2k2y2y2, well it runs just fine for me. All I have is the exact same dir as with win98se, the .ocx file in there, nothing else.

Runs perfect.

Snake Man, can you send me the extra files needed, or maybe Widowmaker can ? I'll give CATE another go.

Loaded all Russian DCW data yesterday into a demoprogram , but still cannot change the e00 files into another projection and export them.
