Horrible |
|

I can't believe there has not been anything added to this in over a month. You would think that if you paid $20 for something it would work.
I am still having the same problems with the DT at my office machine - it will open for a little while, then close suddenly. Sometimes it will stay open for several minutes (5-7) sometimes only seconds before it closes.
NOW, in addition to not being able to use the DT at work, my home computer will not allow it to open. There the situation is different. There I get a message telling me the computer cannot display at 10 1024x768 resolution at 16 bit color. So, it closes. This might be a Windows XP problem. This problem happened a few weeks ago, then suddenly went away. Then it came back this past weekend for good. But it really started after I installed a bunch of new updates from Microsoft. Could it be that the new configuration with the windows updates is causing this problem? |

Position change prob |
|
|
I copied the message ( http://www.forums.smallball.org/archive_forum/viewtopic.php?t=37045 )below as he stated the prob that I also have, better that I could. I also reloaded Small Ball and also Java:
"I have had a problem for 2 days in a row now with my DT. When I go to my ClipBoard after opening my DT, I see my team's Line-up as it would normally appear. When I click on a player to change his position in the batting order, the entire line up starts going wack-o. It may list the same player batting in multiple positions or it may not show all 9 players in the line-up or it may show no line-up at all. All of this occurs only after trying to adjust my batting order. I've tried rebooting my computer and reloading SmallBall and it didn't work. I even waited until today to see if maybe it had gone away, but it hasn't. I have opened the ST and tried to change my batting order from there also. That didn't work either. In the ST it showed my pitcher batting in all 9 positions and would not let me change anything.
Any help at all that can be offered would be greatly appreciated"
In my case, it also showed the pitcher's name more than once, and sometimes, less that 9 players on the DT roster.
As a solution, another subscriber replied:
It worked for me, Go to the DT clipboard and switch a players position with another on the field in the clipboard (hope that make sense, i.e. switch SS with LF) Close DT. Go to ST and set your lineup. Don't use DT to set your lineup
I tried it and it worked, but WHY DID IT STOP WORKING THE DT WAY? _________________

Well, I see this post seems to be goning nowhere. But, let me give my two cents worth. My "DT's" crashes also. When I look in the error file I see DDERR_INVALIDRECT
(Rectangle provided was invalid.)
</EXCEPTION>. This has been going on for quite awhile. Like most , I have recieved no response from DT guy. I have money tied up in some of my teams but refuse to spend any more on the rest or in the future. _________________

Problems running DT with Direct X 9.0c on Win XP SP2 |
|
|
It would be generous and also professional if someone would reply to this problem. DT returns with this message.
Quote: |
Cannot start Deluxe Trainer
Cannot start training

Today, I've tried to start the DT with two different machines with the following setups.
Dell Inspiron 1150 Celeron 4 2.6 Ghz, 512 MB
Windows Xp SP2
Direct X 9.0c
Java JRE 5.0
Smallball Client version: 2.05
EMachine PII 233 Mhz, 256 MB
Windows 2000 SP4
Direct X 9.0c
Java JRE 5.0
Smallball Client version: 2.05
I and others have been waiting on a solution to this problem. Both machines are running at 1024x768 resolution with 16 bpp.

Dont know if this will help but something to try.
A: If you have security (firewall, norton internet worm protection... etc) programs running make sure they are not silently blocking some connections to smallball.
B: Try switching to msjava instead of sun java, the only real problems I have ever had with DT was java related and switching to msjava fixed it.
C: Try optimizing your system(s) with Si-soft-Sandra, there is a free version to download. |

Reinstall |
|
|
I just reinstalled after not playing for a year and after I finally got it running, (Jre 5.0 dx 9.0c, new vid drivers) I logged into DT and when I open the clipboard, I can't do anything in it. Not even close it. I have to do ctrl-alt-del and cancel it to get it to close. My players keep doing what ever I have them doing, but i can't make any changes in the clipboard.
I am using Win98se.
Any suggestions? _________________ Cheechako

I had a simular problem, except with Windows ME, I really think you should try switching to msjava since sun java sometimes doesn't work well in combination with the DT, especially on older versions of windows (works fine for me with XP sp2). I posted about this earlier in this thread, just go to start/programs/smallball /settings there you can switch to msjava if you have it installed. If you don't have msjava you can easily find it by searching www.filemirrors.com for msjavx86.exe |

I have everything new but the drives. I have the same problems.
I wonder how many "average" users, are experiencing the difficulties?
I used to really enjoy SmallBall Baseball. I had 9 teams at one time, currently I have 6 baseball and 6 football teams.
I still enjoy football, IT WORKS 98% OF THE TIME.
SmallBall needs to restore a previous less flawed version. |

On my computer I had a problem where it kept saying cannot start DT.
I re-installed Smallball and it seemed to have fixed the problem.. _________________ Baseball

OK, here goes nothing.
I have been using SmallBall since end of August and I love it, totally addicted, but my problems with the DT also have me contemplating how much I really enjoy it.
On to the problem.
I have used the DT on Free days many times and it would stop running saying that the runtime has requested the application to terminate in an unusual way and it would close down. I updated when the new DT was released and I get a crazy error message that would allow me to send in a help ticket right there on the spot, did this a few times with no replies back or any other info. After spedning many times on the tag board on the homepage talking to D, I was urged to downgrade back to the old DT, did so and get the same crashing as the first time around.
The new DT gave me the following ingo in the e-mail it sends out when you click the ok button to send a help ticket if it crashes.

if it still says the runtime error, then you should right click on ur desktop and go to properties. then hit the settings button and change the colors to 16 bit instead of 24 or 256. hope that helps _________________

well I used the DT on Free day with the settings toned down and it still crashed on me. Same error as before, but the odd thing was after crashing on me two times, I was able to open it a third time and it ran until everyone was out of TP.
Will mess around and see what happens next Freeday |

I broke down and bought the dern thing after my experience on Freeday last week, and it just crashed on me three times in a row, each time I sent in the help ticket that pops up on the new version of the DT. |

I would try to just exit out of the whole smallball application, then click on the smallball icon and try to load dt again. _________________ Quote of the Week:

The display driver is responsible for implementing DirectDraw support, if the display driver doesn't have the correct functionallity, the DirectDraw middle-ware will return the failure you're seeing.
