Help with MMapper2
I am having trouble with this. I for some reason cannot connect to the localhost and port 4242. I keep getting disconnected. Is this a firewall problem?
Re: Help with MMapper2
Post some more information, please.
1) What's your Windows version?
2) What MUD client do you use?
3) What is the exact error message you are getting?
4) If you connect to localhost from your client, do you get anything in MMapper's Log View?

Re: Help with MMapper2
Thanks for the help but I finally got it. For some reason it was a problem with the client, Atlantis for Mac. I got a new and better client and its working fine with mmapper. I don't know how I ever played this game without the map. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)

Re: Help with MMapper2
How accurate is mmapper2 right now?
Re: Help with MMapper2
The map included map is very accurate for most zones. Once you get into hairy spots like Moria or Ost-in-Edhil I would recommend doing some re-mapping.
Re: Help with MMapper2
I just upgraded to Windows 7. Mmapper works, powtty works, but if I try to connect to MUME via mmapper, powtty, just doesn't do anything. It's running in the background, I can't access it, and I am so irritated and don't know what to do. There aren't any error messages.. any advice?
Re: Help with MMapper2
In powtty, try logging into your character and type "cha xml". Then move around a little, and mmapper2 should figure out where you are.
Re: Help with MMapper2
I am using the latest windows vista and JMC client. My mmapper works when I am playing but I am unable to add rooms to the existing map (in mapping mode). I also tried to create a map from scratch and am unable to do so. Any suggestions? (I could add a room manually just the auto map function is not working).
Re: Help with MMapper2
I have strange problem with mmapper2 ver 2.0.2. It ran nicely about year-two ago, but now it gives following error on startup:
QGLContext::makeCurrent(): Cannot make invalid context current.
The operating system is Centos 5.4, mmapper2 was compiled when (sub)version was about 5.0 or 5.1.
When trying to complile last version of mmapper2 (2.0.4-final2) using qmake from qt4, I get following info:
svn: '.' is not a working copy
uic: File generated with too old version of Qt Designer
Any ideas?

Re: Help with MMapper2
Done more troubleshooting. I logged on old pc and have same problems (older mmapper and jmc versions). Has output in mume been changed in the past 5 months? Automap no longer works and i cant update rooms manually either. If i add a room it will only establish a connection but nothing else.
Re: Help with MMapper2
I started over from scratch. Downloaded and reinstalled the latest versions of both mmapper and jmc. Now all seems to be working properly. Still don't know why old pc mmapper does not work.

I have a few ideas, but nothing that would easily fix this for you.Tolv wrote:When trying to complile last version of mmapper2 (2.0.4-final2) using qmake from qt4, I get following info:

a) try to fix the .ui file so that it works with the ancient Qt that's shipped with Centos 5
b) download newer Qt and install it in parallel with the old one so that mmaper would be built against the new Qt but rest of the system continues to use the old one
c) "upgrade" to Fedora where there are mmapper and powwow packages available in repos
d) wait for Centos 6

Re: Help with MMapper2
Edit the qmake file (dont remember the name - project file, makefile, something like that) and remove the crap about svn, I don't know why its in there.
But you shouldn't need to compile your own, just use the one linked on the wiki page?

Re: Help with MMapper2
I decided to try option b). Well, compiling QT 4.6.2 was not a problem. Problem was, that even with last mmapper2 i'll get still message:Kalev wrote: a) try to fix the .ui file so that it works with the ancient Qt that's shipped with Centos 5

QGLContext::makeCurrent(): Cannot make invalid context current. And still, mmapper2 doesnt show map at all and behaves pretty strangely.
So.. I can't make no other conclusion: GL provided by new NVidia drivers just doesn't seem to work well anymore. Maybe should try older ones.
Re: Help with MMapper2
Yes, must be graphics drivers then.
What does "glxinfo | grep render" say for you? For reference, I get this:
Also, does any other app which uses OpenGL for rendering work?

Re: Help with MMapper2
Well.. this was good bit of information.
First, glxinfo did not gave any information about GL. After some investigation, it was clear that NVidia driver installer did something not exactly correctly (I had two versions of glx modules under /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions, libglx.so and libglx.so.190.XYZ). Well, libglx.so should be a symlink to second one. After the removal of libglx.so and creating symlink as it should be - everything was fine. glxinfo works, as does glxgears and MMapper2.

Re: Help with MMapper2
oh maybe this is better place to post problems? mmapper2 keeps crashing when i use alias to scout, for example if i use local alias "p" for scout, and i type "p n" for scout n, it crashes... any ideas?
Re: Help with MMapper2
No idea, but try giving some more information, perhaps someone gets an idea.
- what version of mmapper?
- what operating system (Windows, Linux, Mac)?
- do you use XML mode?
- how well is it reproducible? (100%, once every full moon)
What does "local alias" mean? Is it MUME alias or your local client substitution?

Re: Help with MMapper2
the mmapper 2.0.4 final version, with jmc and windows xp. what i meant by 'local' alias is alias saved as the character not into the client... so if i played with the online java or even by telnet if i typed "alias p scout" then everytime i typed "p" it would scout instead of put something
not using XML, and i'm not sure of the difference between XML mode and normal mode.
and it is reproducible 100% of the time. maybe it is something bound with the letter p? but it also auto shuts down the mapper when i type "sco and then a _ (space)" after it sometimes

Re: Help with MMapper2
Allright, if you are not using XMl mode with the mapper, you should give it a try. Most players (including the people who develop mmapper) use the xml mode and it's thus much more polished than the non-xml mode.
To turn it on, type "change xml" when you are logged on with mapper and see if your problem goes away. If you need to get back to normal mode (for instance when you want to play with Java client) just type "change xml" again.
