Ok... Its been awhile since I've played TW.... I just re-installed swath and I can't get my scripts to run.... It tels me only java run time is loaded. I have no swath.ini file on my PC and I know I need one. Any help please on what java to use and how to create the ini file.

Thanks.

You need to go into the SWATH configuration and tell it where to look for your scripts. That should make the file you need.

If all your path locations are correct, it'll create a swath.ini for you. Use the latest runtime java unless you plan to compile your own, then you'll need the latest SDK.

From the Swath menu, choose edit, then preferences, the settings for TWX scripts are under the scripts section on page 2.  Put in the full path. For example, mine are located in 'D:\TWXProxy\scripts' Then click the 'okay' button

Finally choose the 'Scripts' menu from the Swath menu, choose 'Script Tools, then 'Reload All Scripts' and you are set.

Must be an older version of swath. Swath 1.8.3 relies on .cfg instead of an .ini. I run xppro and no swath.ini on my machine.

hm you're right, it's swath.cfg not swath.ini. There is no ini file.

Where do you see the need for the .ini?

The last ver. of swath I ran waaaaay back when used the .ini file.

When I d/l'd the new ver and installed it, I figured it was still the same.... my bad.

sounds like the game preferences scripts, page one the java root dir settings aren't pointing to the right dir where your java scripts are located
