Change to http://vm370.org/VM/V1R1.1


 

I have devised several ways of automagically stepping over the issue that I bumped into running CE with 3.13. but using the KISS principle, perhaps a clearer statement on point 3 on this web page would be a good first/only step needed. It needs to clearly state that 3.13 will NOT work with CE unless you modify the config.?
Alternatively, I don't know what happens if you simply put both statements into the config file, as I don't have Hyperion to check. It is OK with 3.13.

Ant,

The old version works with both 3.13 and 4.xx. The change to the new version was made because the FISH GUI objects to the old version. I believe the real fix is to tell people we don¡¯t support using it with the FISH GUI and/or they need to tell the FISH GUI not to check the config.

OK, perhaps "bigger" conversations are way above my "newbie" pay grade. Don't want to repeat what has already been decided. I make these comments as an innocent. I would limit them to the change to those about item 3 on the web page.


 

Dave,

Maybe you should deliver two versions of the config file... One specifically for v4 (ARCHLVL) and one that is "general" (ARCHMODE).

Or deliver one file with #ARCHMODE and tell the user to uncomment it and comment ARCHLVL...

Joe,

There is no need for two configs. The 6-pack was not designed to work with the FISH GUI and it only fails with the FISH GUI.

A tweak to the fish GUI config allows it to works.

FYI:

It was a mistake on my part for HercGUI to always reject ARCHMODE. I apologize for the grief/confusion it has caused the community.

Since Hercules v4.x still accepts ARCHMODE in addition to ARCHLVL (albeit with a deprecated warning message), the upcoming "soon to be released" new version of HercGUI now does too.
