martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.05 22:56:00 - [1] Edited by: martinand on 05/01/2008 22:58:50 Got my new G15 keyboard the other day.. been working on a thing for the LCD. I know theres a few othersdone.. but hey.. thats not gonna stop me from having some fun coding... ;) It uses this: http://www.avbrand.com/software/g15/ This is what i have so far (screenshots from the program transfering to LCD) Showing character info: Showing POS fuel left: And my favourite: The DPS stuff.. it reads the last log from the gamelogs and displays some info from it. Gonna work on manufacturing jobs and sell orders and what else i might use myself... its basicly a small .exe program that reads .vbs scripts.. and i write one script for each function i want. Atm.. with button 1 and 2 you switch between diffrent views.. right now its POS/Character/DPS.. and with button 3-4 you can scroll or switch within these views... like between characters.. or between posses... Ive also set it so the active view updates itself every minute. Im hoping i can share it with you when its "ready" enough... and maybe you have some suggestions for functions? And if all goes well and i "release" it.. you can write your own scripts too if you want.... if you know vbs :) Well thats about it.. just checking if theres any intrest for this ;) /martin

Dr Slaughter Rabies Inc.	Posted - 2008.01.09 15:25:00 - [5] Originally by: martinand the DPS stuff.. it reads the last log from the gamelogs and displays some info from it. Not having looked at the logs for ages I'm probably going to ask a really dumb question.... Can you display a flashing warning when you're warp scrambled, and, who's doing it? If that information is in the logs, having it winking at me right about F1,2,3... would be quite handy :) CCP this is not the nerf you are looking for...
martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.09 18:33:00 - [6] Edited by: martinand on 09/01/2008 18:35:34 atm its only looking at the DPS logs every 1 minute.. but you could increase the frequency i guess.. and alert if scrambled within the last x seconds or smth... and im still working on this program yes. ;) Trying to actually play eve too... so its not going superfast ;) Only problem with increasing frequency of reading the gamelog.. is that if you have many gamelogs.. it needs to actually loop through all the files and check their creation date (atleast i havnt found any other solution for vbs via my trusty friend google) so if you have.. say like i had when i first tested this.. 10700 gamelogs.. it took 5-6 seconds for my highend machine to find the right file to read:P trying to make it a bit more general and friendly to code in... but i will put it up here soon (tm) :)

martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.11 21:30:00 - [14] Hey.. soo.. what do you think it should say when someone tries to scramble you? Might as well get it right from the start... even though you can fairly easily change it yourself once you have it :P See my original post for the text i put in for my testing.

martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.14 14:06:00 - [20] Hey, Thanks, nice to hear some feedback finally ;) Yes most of the code or the part that matters is in the vbs files. Theres some bugs.. im listing them in the top post.. i'll try and get to them, also i dont like the memory usage of it... ill try to find why its using so much (Here at work its 11mb.. at home its 4-5mb) /M

Theres some bugs.. im listing them in the top post.. /M I've been running it all day today and am very happy. Don't do research or run POS at the moment but I'm using it instead of evemon's integration. Didn't really look at the memory, my machine is running MSDE, VmWare and a bunch of other stuff, but it's got 4Gb. Looking forward to tinkering with the code when I get some time. The log files have finally become interesting again! CCP this is not the nerf you are looking for...
Artemis Dragmire Garoun Investment Bank	Posted - 2008.01.15 07:15:00 - [24] I'm getting an error when switching to the screen after DPS report: Scripting Error:Subscript out of range: '[number: 3]' Line 48 This shows up 6 times, then I get: Run time error '9': Subscript out of range: '[number: 3]'
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.01.17 23:33:00 - [25] Excellent tool, would love to be able to get it to work as im having problems with evemon recently. But i get this error message when i click yaap.exe Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object I havnt a clue what it means. Any ideas?
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.01.18 00:24:00 - [26] Just something else, would this have to do with .net framework? Im using v3.0.
martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.18 07:20:00 - [27] Hi, Shouldn't have anything to do with .NET. YAAP is built with good ol' Visual Basic 6. Not sure whats going on there. I havnt gotten around to fixing the bugs in the current version (some of which are listed in OP) but hopefully i can do it soon.. :)
Dr Slaughter Rabies Inc.	Posted - 2008.01.18 12:13:00 - [28] Originally by: martinand Hi, Shouldn't have anything to do with .NET. YAAP is built with good ol' Visual Basic 6. Not sure whats going on there. Probably the DLL isn't registered properly (check it's in the location in the error and try using the regsrv to register it), check you're running the LCD manager application from logitech. I had a similar error when I didn't have it running... It could potentially be a security issue with COM but I doubt it (you're not running as a restricted account, or have any group policy or local security policies running do you?) CCP this is not the nerf you are looking for... [a image was here once but it went away]

Hi, Yes ist in the location i specify in the run cmd tried it with lcd manager running and open and closed still get the same error, all running as admin. No group or user policies running. i dont have IIS installed, could this be it? Thanks again.
Artemis Dragmire Garoun Investment Bank	Posted - 2008.01.19 08:47:00 - [31] Any idea of how to fix the issues I am having with it?
martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.19 13:53:00 - [32] Edited by: martinand on 19/01/2008 13:55:13 Edited by: martinand on 19/01/2008 13:53:31 Originally by: Artemis Dragmire Any idea of how to fix the issues I am having with it? Gonna look into it... maybe its because you are in NPC corp.. so you cannot check corp-stuff and i dont have anythign in code to handle that.. i just assume ppl are in player corps... investigates UPDATE: yes i get the same problem when i switch to a character in NPC corp.. ill work on a new version this weekend
Charlie Crocodile Imperium Technologies	Posted - 2008.01.19 16:39:00 - [33] Latest version works well too, just don't overwrite settings.ini as you'll have to set it up all over again.

Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.01.20 09:19:00 - [34] Edited by: Maya Sollow on 20/01/2008 09:20:11 Ok, ive had success in getting the DLL to register and it works perfect. My OS is Win XP X64 pro so that was my problem. When running regsvr32.exe from the run box it uses the 64bit version in the system32 folder. To get it to register you have to open a CMD box and create a path to the sysWOW64 folder and run the regsvr32.exe in there, which is the 32bit version. Here is the method i used. Make sure the loglcd.dll is in the sysWOW64 folder. I also went to the properties and clicked "unblock" under the general tab. Not sure if unblock makes any difference. Go to Start/run type "CMD" (no quotes) It will open a CMD box with your documents and settings path selected. Type "cd c:\windows\syswow64" (no quotes, asuming your windows directory is windows) Type in "regsvr32.exe c:\windows\syswow64\loglcd.dll" (again no qotes) Worked for me, maybe you can put something in your readme for XP 64bit users Martinand. Unless its just my comp /me shrugs Either way, nice tool and thanks. EDIT I used your 1.0.2v works fine.
martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.20 12:39:00 - [35] Edited by: martinand on 20/01/2008 12:41:23 Hey, i beleive my original post mentions you have to put it in syswow64 for 64-bit, glad you solved it. For me in vista it was enough to do regsvr32.exe C:\windows\syswow64\loglcd.dll maybe its diffrent in xp 64 :)
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.01.20 22:51:00 - [36] Yeah its a xp 64bit thing i think, i found the info in a microsoft KB article. I tried putting the DLL in sysWOW64 and using the normal regsvr32.exe in the run command, but apparently this uses the default 64 bit version of regsvr32.exe on XP 64bit, and gives the LoadLibrary [path] - failed the operation completed succesfully error So you have to run the regsvr32.exe from the sysWOW64 folder (this is the 32bit version) in a CMD box to register the DLL. I didnt even know there were 2 versions of it, but a computer search came up with both of them. Theres no difference in the file version or dates, only difference is the size and location. C:/windows/system32/regsvr32.exe (64bit version) C:/windows/sysWOW64/regsvr32.exe (32bit version) /me is happy it works anyway Any chance the font size could be increased a little somehow? can be a little hard to read for us oldies.
martinand Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.21 11:30:00 - [37] Edited by: martinand on 21/01/2008 11:30:27 It is possible to change fontsize but im not sure on how well it will look. You could try adding the line: LCD.FontSize = 7 in Public Function Startup (in startup.vbs) i think the size is set to 6 by default... and i also thing anythign above 7 will look very strange.. from what i remember. If you really know what you're doing you can probably change the font too.. by adding LCD.Font = <your font> /Martin
Max Kentarii Nordic Endeavour	Posted - 2008.01.21 11:45:00 - [38] I'm using WinXP Pro SP2 x64 and I'm not running the Logitech LCD App since I don't have a Logitech G15 keyboard, so the program doesn't need that to run. I didn't even bother to copy the dll to the windows\system32 / windows/SysWOW64 dir, I just registered it using the same path where i unzipped the contents to.
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.01.22 12:15:00 - [39] Originally by: martinand You could try adding the line: LCD.FontSize = 7 in Public Function Startup (in startup.vbs) Changed to 7, looks perfect. Ill play with the font type sometime. Thankyou Martin.
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.02.02 06:14:00 - [40] Still love this tool, but i have a new problem. Ive tried your link http://api.eve-online.com/corp/StarbaseList.xml.aspx?characterID=<character>&userid=<userid>&apikey=<apikey> to get a tower ID but i get no page. In the characterID im guessing i should be putting my name right? and i've tried the limited and full api keys with no sucess. Thanks /me is new to the api thing.
Maya Sollow Gallente Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.02.02 09:08:00 - [41] OK forget all that in that last post, i got it to work. Tells me the location and the fuel perfect but i get an error when trying to look at the installed jobs. This happens when i choose either of the 3 types, Char, Corp or CorpMe. YAAP hangs for about 3 minutes, button pushes on the G15 dont work apart from to change apps, eventually reports an error and returns to normal. This is the error it reports. YAAP Scripting error:The download of the specified resource has failed. Line: 135 (click ok) YAAP Scripting error: Line: 0 (click ok) Repeats the above 2 more times. The error coincides with my firewall entry 9:01:25 AMYAAP.EXE: 2248Request: HTTP11 GET eve-central.com /home/quicklook.html Anything you could suggest? Thanks.
ERCI UPS	Posted - 2008.03.11 00:45:00 - [42] hi hum, i put the info pos id, robotics, but in my G15 now, where i can see my pos infos ??? i dun understant too, what to do with the menu Manufacturing, invention, ME researh, PE, copy, Mode, character what this menu do, and how to use it ? ty
ERCI UPS	Posted - 2008.03.13 04:06:00 - [43] since the update, yaap dun work, can't retrieve api information
Maya Sollow Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.03.15 00:59:00 - [44] Since the boost patch it fails to get the pos information from the api. Im assuming they changed the ID numbers somewhere down the line but i havnt really looked yet. Skill retrieving still works fine for me. The research section in YAAP has never worked for me even though we have research being done. I have no idea how to get it to work. It returns a script error and then YAAP closes and you have to restart it manually. The dps readings, best hit etc all work fine for a while, then revert back to zero after a random time it seems. When you dock and undock it all works again. Again, no idea why it does this. All i need is the pos fuel readout working again. Apart from the minor things above that i cant get working, and the occaisional script error popups, (can get anoying sometimes) YAAP has been running constantly on my G15 since i first got it working. Still an excellent addition to the eve tools for the G15 list.
ERCI UPS No Quarter. Academy Vae Victis.	Posted - 2008.03.16 22:12:00 - [45] yup skill, dps, dmg all work, only pos dun work but, in setting ini, when i change the inerval to read the log, it dun work i tried 1s and it not refresh my g15 informations every 1s, 2s dun work too only 3s seems work
Maya Sollow Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.03.26 18:16:00 - [46] Api seems to be back up, YAPP is giving fuel info.
Jeremy Hellas	Posted - 2008.04.26 07:54:00 - [47] Really nice G15 mode thanks. It works great for me Thanks
Psycho symbiosis	Posted - 2008.05.08 16:06:00 - [48] Hi, thank for this mod but, but i would like uninstall it and i don't find how (maybe with regsvr32.exe /u LogLCD.dll command, but that doesn't work). could u help me please ?
GB Man	Posted - 2008.05.17 08:55:00 - [49] Ahh so niiiice. This being kept up to date?
Darina Smirayne	Posted - 2008.05.20 13:50:00 - [50] Most of this app works fine and is useful to have around, but I am having the same script errors with manufacturing/research that have been reported before. The error is: Quote: Scripting error:File not found Line: 143 The "util.vbs" script file is the only file with a valid line 143, and this line is looking for a file called "items.txt". Is there something missing from the zip file? If I create an empty items.txt in the folder then I get a different error which makes me guess that I need the items.txt file with values in it. /Darina
Darina Smirayne	Posted - 2008.05.20 17:40:00 - [51] After a convo with Martin, a solution came up. If you create the "items.txt" file in the YAAP folder, then put a single line in it like this: "24535 Paradise Fury Cruise Missile" (no quotes) then the manufacturing/research bits start to work without errors. Hope this helps other people...

Maya Sollow Product Number 3	Posted - 2008.05.23 19:25:00 - [53] Works perfect. Ive been wondering why this didnt work but never really got round to it.
Dr Slaughter Rabies Inc.	Posted - 2008.06.01 17:13:00 - [54] Watching Blue Skies made me think.... Would it be possible to calculate how long you can tank incoming damage, in real time, and display how long until you're going to be in a pod? :) Guess it would need to rely on you manually entering repair cycle times and values for your ship first?
