is this XP or Vista? try to open one of the per they are in My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities
Downloaded 2.0.5, performed clean install (uninstalled 2.04, deleted folder). Updater announced bug fix and updated to 2.0.6, After running software, click on any personality and it says its missing (which it is) and removes from library. Does this for all default personalities. Unsure if fault was there in 2.0.5 or if fault is in 2.0.6
Hi, I'm using XP Pro SP2 on both work and home machines (I have vista but not testing with it at the moment). On both machines I tried to update first from 2.0.4 via the web updater. Once it finished update to 2.0.6 I tried to run the software and got the following errors at launch on both machines: "Missing Initialization File. Do you want to regenerate it? Y/N I hit Y and got the message "The folder is read only! Please change the folder attribute and try again! OK" Hitting OK results in the error "Missing Data Files OK" and the software doesn't load. (hitting N to regen ? results in crash) At this point all files are still in C:\Program Files\WoWWee\RS-Media Suite Beta 2.0.4 and even if I change the attributes to remove Read Only on this folder and all sub folders I still can't run the software. So from here I do a full uninstall and delete the C:\Program Files\WoWWee folder. Install Public 2.0.5 version. Program folder is now C:\Program Files\WowWee\RS Media Suite 2.0.5 Beta. Also checked and My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities folder exists with all the Pers etc (didn't realise they had moved). Web updates to 2.0.6 at launch and program starts fine with none of the previous errors. Program folder is still C:\Program Files\WowWee\RS Media Suite 2.0.5 Beta and version still shows 2.0.5. The 4 default PER show in 'my personalities' but if you click on them you get the error "Personality Not Exist OK" and they disappear. As suggested I opened them from the new folder and this reinstated them. So the 4 issues are that: 1. the software is looking in wrong place for these when first installed. 2. people may not be aware that PERS are now in My RS Media 3. people testing in 2.0.4 cannot use web updater go to 2.0.5/6. 4. 2.0.6 version number is not updating from 2.0.5.
I noticed in media organizer, that all the path are as follows
H:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities\RS Media\RS Media.per
H:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities\Service Bot 3000\Service Bot 3000.per
H:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities\Space Bot\Space Bot.per
H:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\My RS Media\Personalities\Billy Joe Sapien\Billy Joe Sapien.per
A little investigation show the MOplaylist.ini in C:\Documents and Settings\Nocturnal\My Documents\My RS Media\Data is pointing to locations that don't exist. Hence the disapeering personalities. The installer obviously need a little work. Correcting the paths before the personalities were removed, solved the issue. Note, this is a problem with the 2.0.5 installer, not the 2.0.6 update.
Incidentally, I don't know if anyone else has noticed, it looks like they might finally be using relative paths in the .per files.
