SMEdit

[Bobby Bighoof]

I can verify this issue. I successfully used SMEdit two weeks ago and it was, although buggy, functional. Yesterday, I decided to start a new project by importing a mesh as a hull, only to discover that the program would not start at all. Here are the results of my (limited) troubleshooting:
1: you can prevent the program from downloading the broken update by disabling your internet connection. The program, however, will not start.
2: Removing the 3rd party software folder in the StarMade folder does not work.
3: Reverting the game to the previous version (wherein I had successfully used it) did not work.
4: retrieving a VERY old version of SMEdit from an archive and attempting to use it at the same time as a version of starMade from the same era did not work.

Combining any two of the above steps also failed to achieve the desired result. I give it up, and just hope that, whoever is updating this program after all this time is willing to put it back like he found it.

Ok I did as you said: downloaded the latest Smedit.Jar (1.03.92 as posted here, as its the only smedit download I can find), went into the third-party folder and deleted the smedit folder.
Put the new Smedit.jar into the starmade folder, and.... on start it again says that there is an update, and tries to download SMEit_1.15393.jar which fails.



Smedit worked just fine for me on Sunday 20th near midnight central European time. Come Monday 21st, 3 PM and it is giving me these errors. I don't know what changed between a those 13 some hours, or where Smedit is getting its "There is an update" information from.

Thank you both of you yes it seems a folder has gotten changed on our domain hosting to not allow access to it at the moment working to resolve that and will let you guys know when the issue is solved. lol but man that is tossing out some old as crap errors and doing some stranger than silly things because it couldn't check its own version.

Here should be a link to a temp no update check smedit loader. Let me know if you have any problems downloading it or using it. Rmember its in a zip format and you need to extract the jar file from inside.

side note you now will need to restore the SMEdit folder from your "Recycle Bin" as it isn't going to download anything from the web for you. At least that loader wont.

SMEdit_NoUpdate

SMEdit_NoUpdate

Bobby if you need someone to do some temporary web hosting I can set up a quick backend for you, not perminant and not very strong but enough for SMEdit update pings.

 

[Dinozzo]

Glad we got that figured out. Into the next problem I'm afraid:
I restored the Starmade folder from trash and used that new smedit launcher but.... something is still wrong apparently. I get the launcher window without any fuss about updating but as soon as I hit start on the launcher, nothing happens and the process exits.

Either my Smedit folder got corrupted by the false update, or something else is wrong. can you provide me a zipped up download to the smedit folder?

 

[ForgottenPrime]

I got to the start area. once I put in the info for my starmade hit start. nothing happens after word. SMEdit NoUpdate docent seem to work ether. Thank you.

 

[Ixalite]

Same here, no results even after restoring the SMEdit folder, although it is likely not the original copy.

Thank I just need to get with my hosting guy about switching some thing, but I appreciate the offer.

It isn't the SMEdit_noupdate jar file at fault that is what was requested and that is what I put out and it works perfectly you got the start up options and that is all that jar file is.

Check the end of this comment to download the smedit folder needed to run the rest of the application.

Same here, no results even after restoring the SMEdit folder, although it is likely not the original copy.

Here is the SMEdit folder in a zip file

Put this in your StarMade/third-party/ folder to run smedit while we work out these hosting problems.

So that the file path should look like
StarMade/third-party/SMEdit/

SMEdit_Folder

 

[Ixalite]

HORAY! It works! you have my thanks good sir!

 

[Bobby Bighoof]

OK pleased to report that the file transfer protocols for the hosting have been resolved and the original SMEdit.jar should be working once again Thank you all who reported this bug and were very patient with me wile we resolved the issue.

NP Bobby, Glad to have it working. or well, at least booting again..

And ried it with both the SMEdit Download you posted, and letting SMEdit download the files themselves.

Go to your "blueprints-default" folder in your starmade folders and delete the "Omen-Navy-Class" blueprint so that it can redownload a fresh copy of it for you.

Just delete the whole folder "SMEdit" and the blueprint "Omen-Navel-class" and let it redownload a fresh copy

I was also having issues importing ships, but everything is working fine now! Thanks, B.B.!

You are very welcome and sorry if at any time in trying to help you out if I seemed in any way irritated or upset. I would hate to think that people would not want to come to me for help for fear that I would get upset with them.

I am always available on my teamspeak voice chat to help with any issues or problems an SMEdit user might have.

Glad that it is working for you now.

Can it read blueprint files again?

 

[Dinozzo]

Can it read blueprint files again?

From what Bobby told me on his Teamspeak server a few days ago: Currently Smedit can only read Old blueprints. something about the new blueprints having a different format that includes some sort of time stamp of when it was created (even though this doesn't work as it will say "Jan 01, 1970 - 01:00 AM" in the Catalog anyways), which Smedit can't handle/see the differance between. but Bobby did say that he is working on it.

 

[Bobby Bighoof]

Introducing the new SMEdit / StarMade web theme that is being developed and implemented in the new rebuild of this application.

When completed I will be finishing this library and offering the jar file for other applications of StarMade to use the theme and explain how to implement it in their projects I am developing this along with the new rebuild of the SMEdit application together so please be patient with me while these things are being thought out worked on and developed.

I realize the issues with the old SMEdit build, and I am sorry that as it stands I will not be doing everything in my power to correct those problems but I can't fix that and develop on what I'm working on now too.

Sorry the schematic stuff mostly about updates done to minecraft and the block ids not being updated for that and our application makes it hard to help with schematic issues at this time but I will make sure this is corrected in the up coming re write.

Can it read blueprint files again?

As the poster after you explained the requirements and file re writes needed for the existing smedit to do new blueprints is too great for me to simply try to patch those files. I will be addressing this in the new application re write. Thank you for you continued interest in the application. I hope the new re write will resove most of these issues for us.

Thank you for passing along information your help and others is very much appreciated and noticed.
