Help with running qsptools on mac/linux os

[ace_boogie]

I've been trying to run qsptools on my mac. It's a Java program so I thought it would be easy to run. I thought wrong. I've ran into more problems than a girl with daddy issues. The more I search the more I want to throw my computer out the window so if anybody can guide somewhere towards the light it would be greatly appreciated.

I assume you are running python on your mac?
Strike that - my head was somewhere else. I meant of course: are you running java 8 or an older version? I had problems before i updated my java on pc as well and found the remark from the author about java 8

This is not the only way, but it's the way I follow to do the French translation.

I use :

• Notepad++ because we need something that can handle large file and different encoding
• AutoHotKey, to speed up the translation import in HPCS creator
• A java program (

I'm using java 6 for wine and has java 8 and the legacy java for my mac installed

I can't get the program to come up at all using wine and in osx

What I'm doing: I have a WinXP backup in a VMWare to run those more exotic things that wine wont run. (On Ubuntu)

Most modern graphics intense games won't run very well in a VM because of the limited graphics card access, but for esoteric, non-wine-supported stuff that isn't actually graphically intensive like "most of these H-Games" it works very well.

Did you ever solve this @ace_boogie

WINE still doesn't like the JRE 8

Nope, I never could get the .jar file to open as it should

I've got it working on Linux, might work same on Mac? Worth a go.

Download the Offline version of Java8 for Windows x86

. Then install it through WINE using the /s silent install tag as per:

wine jre-8u161-windows-i586.exe /s

This installs Java into the WINE directory but doesn't actually tell you that it has installed it.

Then open RegEdit through "wine regedit.exe".

Look in CURRENT_USER/Environment for a REG_EXPAND_SZ called PATH and if not create one. Enter the value as the path to the Java bin:

c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_161\bin\

Then you SHOULD be able to launch the batch file directly. wine cmd then launcher.bat.
