Hi Freddy! As I wrote you on Zabaware, now I finally have a PC with XP and I installed your Hap Explorer. But unable to run it: the interface appears, with always the same error message:

"Unhandled exception has occured in your application.
...........
Conversion from "1.000" to type 'Double' is not valid."

After putting that last sentence in Google, I got a reply in Spanish. But not very useful.  ;D

Hmmm, not come across that one before.  Did you install the .NET framework ?

Yes Freddy, Framework v2.0. And I tried other versions (2.0 too) found elsewhere on the web.

Maybe not a good idea, but always the same message. :(

Don't worry Freddy. Little loss of interest for new Haptek stuffs for now. Or maybe a putty head from time to time.  ;D

Ok then, I will leave it alone.  I've lost interest in Haptek myself too, but I will try and figure it out at some point.

Freddy,
   Just updated my  computer to a HP quad with vista,  before putting in Ultra Hal I want to put in some other software.   I did download the Haptek player but it works very poorly with vista.   Zabaware upgraded hal for vista and I am wondering if the Haptek player is also upgraded.  Any input on this?

Carl2,

If I may interject...I too switched to Vista Premium last year. In spite of the much touted graphical bells and whistles, I was
saddly disappointed by the fact that a lot of graphic oriented programs performed poorly or mediocre at best, including Haptek
and Hal.

Some of the MS programs like Office kept asking me for my email password every time I logged on and would never accept
it in it's file.

Several other programs that I rely on on a daily basis led me to remove Vista and return to XP, which worked fine.

To each their own, but if it ain't broke, don't fix it!! ;)
In the world of AI, it's the thought that counts!

Yes, like I said elsewhere, VIsta is resource-hungry and will slow down a lot of programs, unless you are lucky like Carl and have a quad-core that is.

As far as the Haptek player goes I haven't kept up with any upgrades, but I think it must be something they will have to look at if they haven't already.

  Both oif you thanks for the input.  I  also liked Vista because of the security which now seems to bea problem at the Haptek site, the character never appears and everything is very slow.  Actualy the speed of the P4 with XP is quick enough for everything Dragon and Hal could use a little improvement. 
  I'll mention I just downloaded the Bzip2 for windows from source fourge, you could modify the uncompressed htr and put them back into an htr.

Hi Freddy, The explorer is a great program.
I probably don't use it as much as i should.
I select certain movements & add them to notepad, but when i close the program
I remember that i did not save the moves & have to go back & start again.
Is there a quick fix to put in a  " do you want to save? "
Before closing???

Carl are you saying that HTR's are just Bzip files ?

Neil, you caught me in a helpful mood as I had abandonded this project for the most part in favour of other things now.  But I went back and hacked a new version that prompts you if there is something in the NotePad (that one only, other pads are not supported).
Now it should let you save your work if you close it by mistake.

I left the older version there incase there was a problem with the new version, so let me know if it works alright for you okay?  I'm running .NET 3 or something now, but I think it should work with .NET 2 as before.

You're welcome Neil, happy to help and to stop the swearing lol :)

Sorry, forgot to mention this new version is available from the first post in this topic but if you found it I guess other people will...
