If your package manager is empty, autotracker isn't working, or you can't update, make sure you have re-downloaded and installed the latest update. See #announcements for details.

@Allstin i don't know if you ended up keeping pins or not, but its VERY useful for a few things. its where you can keep track of "seen" items, like library or zora ledge or lumberjack. its also handy if got a hint that you cant clear off yet (like if i get an early mimic cave hint), ill just pin mimic cave to remember to skip it. its also useful for pinning dungeons, because then you can easily scan the # of items you have left

I apologize for asking this as I'm sure it has been asked recently but my searching seems to be failing me. Is there a way to persist the height/width that we set the main tracker to across each time we run the application? EG (since I know i am bad at describing things) I open the tracker, use the standard window size adjustments to make it the size/shape I want. Can I persist that across sessions yet?
Avatar
Kono Tyran 2019-03-02 09:41
@LiminalityCarb thid blog post mentions support for this by editing some of the config files https://emotracker.net/blog/2018/09/13/emotracker_2_1_release_notes/

32 bit windows is no longer a supported platform for the tracker.

JRJathome 2019-03-11 00:28
The current version uses certain libraries not available in 32bit versions of Windows. There's a download link in #general for an old version which should work, but pack support isn't guaranteed.

Just to reiterate - support for that version will degrade over time. You will find over time that the latest versions of packs do not work properly, or fail to work at all.

I strongly recommend migrating to x64 windows if you have a compatible cpu.

Idk if this has eveer been talked about/requested (or if it's a feture I've overlooked), but a way to save "default" or "Save" runs would be wonderful
02:54
for example, I like to start each LttP run with all of the dungeons pinned, but currently I have to re-pin them every run
02:54
Being able to just "save" a setup with them already pinned would be quite useful
02:54
Also, I've found I can't run Oracle of Seasons in one sitting, and being able to save a current run and come back to it later would be wonderful

EmoSaru 2019-03-11 03:01
Have you tried literally saving your setup, using the save command, and then just loading it? Save/load has been supported for a while.

There’s a maximum amount of effort I’m willing to put into 32 bit though, and if this doesn’t work it’s probably just dead.

Not sure if this is an EmoTracker thing or a Hamsda's pack thing, but on the latest update, I've found 2 issues. First, clearing all checked in a pinned area (like a dungeon) no longer un-pins it. Second, if you already have something pinned, you can no longer double click it an move it to the top of the pins list.
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-03-13 01:55
Make sure you’re running the actual latest update. The clearing issue was fixed. I will look into the other one as I haven’t checked it.
01:56
Or at least the clearing thing should be. Are you right clicking on the map to clear, or just manually clicking each thing until it’s empty? (edited)

And I never right click in the map. I either long-press the square and manually clear within, or (more often than not) I clear from the Pinned Locations tray.

What is your EmoTracker install path?

Also, can you do me one favor? Delete that copied file, and try setting EmoTracker to run in compatibility mode for Windows 7 and seeing if that works?

Fascinating. Okay, you're obviously welcome to run with that fix, though you will need to make it again after each update you install

I'm going to have to get ahold of a Windows 8.1 setup to try and debug this, but I'm slightly disinclined to do so since Windows 8 is basically dead

I don't remember if it asks for network permissions again when you set up the Twitch integration.

My friend noticed something regarding the tracker earlier today... When the program is not in use, the CPU usage shows as 0%... However, just moving the mouse around on the window (not even clicking anything) jumps it up to 5% without map or 11% with map.
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-03-18 16:46
EmoSaru Today at 11:09 AM As SourLyme said, this is not really the place for it. That said, this is hit-testing, and you can observe a similar increase in the CPU usage of most relatively complex Windows programs while moving the mouse over an application window that accepts/processes mouse input. While the mouse is not moving, or not over the Window, you will notice that the CPU usage is effectively zero (assuming NDI is not active).

I never use pinned locations anyway so if I could just get rid of it that would be amazing
Avatar
JRJathome 2019-03-20 12:40
So the reason the pinned items location is so big is because it matches the height of the items to the left. Just getting rid of the pinned locations wouldn't do anything, but if you made an override and moved the items to the top left, with the pinned locations under it, that would fix it.

Always finish seeds before updating. If you hand edit your save files to update the versions, it is possible to make them work, depending on what changes the pack author made, but I provide no support for doing such things.

Got a newb question and I'm sorry if it's in FAQ, I just wasn't able to find it. I get an error in the emulator that states "Failed to unpack block" and it desyncs the auto tracker. Is this caused by Windows Defender by chance?
Avatar
Alysstrasza 2019-03-23 16:11
possible fix: EmoSaru (Last Wednesday) FYI, to anybody experiencing the "Failed to parse block" issues on emulators, I'm talking with the right people about it and I think we have a plan for moving forward. It will be a few days though. In the meantime, restarting the autotracker will likely fix you, and restarting both the autotracker and the lua will almost certainly fix you.

Apologies if this has been previously discussed (i couldnt find anything in my light search). just wondering if it is possible to enable/disable the map in the tracker without resetting your items/locations, or is the best way just moving the map off screen? Seems to happen no matter which pack im using
Avatar
Natalie 2019-03-25 07:11
Is there a particular reason you have for needing to hide the map? Just a curiosity.
Avatar
JRJathome 2019-03-25 07:33
Switching a pack/variant will always reset the tracker. There's an option in the menu to disable the map without changing the variant, but that seems to also reset the tracker, so I don't think there's a way to do that.
07:35
I'm unsure why you'd need to enable/disable the map in the middle of a run anyway.
Avatar
Bored_Banana 2019-03-25 14:07
It’s mainly just personal preference. Generally I don’t like the map as I like to fingers out my options myself but sometimes (like once in a rando) I get stuck and need to see what is available. I don’t race so it doesn’t really effect anything but if it can’t be done that’s fine

I've got a question, I've noticed in OBS when I have emotracker open on another computer in my house within my network, I can see and select that NDI instance, giving me the impression that I can use emotracker remotely, like from a convenient tablet device by my side. However, upon choosing that remote device, the preview window doesn't show anything. Is this something that is supposed to be working? Or is there additional setup needed to get this to work properly? This would be such a great way to free up valuable real estate on my screen. (edited)

Ninban 2019-03-26 09:19
Pretty sure it's just for the broadcast view, so no interaction with the software remotely I think

you cannot USE emo tracker remotely
09:19
you can just pull up the broadcast view (if that window is open) remotely
Avatar
codemann8 2019-03-26 09:28
Right, I would have emo and broadcast view on a tablet, and track things in the tablet, but then I'm attempting to view it from OBS on another computer, which it shows blank, is this not what happens for everyone else?

PC is hard wired, tablet wireless
Avatar
stephen 2019-03-26 09:36
and they are both on the same network segment i presume, or else the NDI broadcast wouldn't be detected at all.
09:37
the things i would personally do to troubleshoot may not be viable for you. for instance, I would check wireshark/pcap.
Avatar
codemann8 2019-03-26 09:37
Right, the only thing I can think of that's different from a normal setup is that I have an AD and all devices on the network have both my router and my AD as the 2 DNS IPs
Avatar
stephen 2019-03-26 09:37
I can't think of a single reason why that would matter.
09:39
Ok, so NDI sources advertise via bonjour/zeroconf that they are sourcing a stream from an ephemeral tcp/ip port
09:39
if you are seeing the broadcast listed in the NDI plugin, the advertising is working.
09:39
then the viewer and the stream source talk, and transmission begins.
09:40
so assuming that windows firewall is off in both locations, were it me, I would indeed be running wireshark at both the tablet and the desktop to verify end to end packet transport.
Avatar
codemann8 2019-03-26 09:42
Do you think I should be seeing transports at all times or only as soon as I select it in the drop down and the preview (should) show? (edited)

stephen 2019-03-26 09:43
I would assume you should always see some traffic

The badges are not interactive UI - they’re just static images. There’s also currently not a function to remove them, due to me releasing a slightly older revision of that code. I will be posting examples once I resolve that.

Also, #customization-support is the place for this.

ScorelessPine 2019-03-26 10:06
Ok. I should rephrase though, it wont be so much interactable as it will be a dynamic menu of sorts. I split the super metroid menu into a bunch of different png files that I could layer on one another based on certain item flags. Ill head over to the other channel though now.

Did you perhaps pick an items only variant by mistake? To view available packs, click on the cloud icon on the top right, click install on the one you want. To switch between your installed packs, click on the gear icon which opens a dropdown menu with the option "installed packages" or something like that

I mostly would like to mark a blue check as "worthless" so I can ignore that check. Is there a way to do this? Also please don't say just mark the check as checked because auto tracker will swoop in and unmark it because it knows I'm lying to it.

11:06
It's mostly the option I can't see, so a scroll bar might also do the trick

That'll be #customization-support material, since panels can't be resized from in the app.

In a nutshell, it takes creating an override and modifying the JSON that defines the layout of the package. You'll need to put out a little bit of effort to understand what's going on internally.
11:09
Meanwhile, it may be worth poking Hamsda and Tekky about minmode variants/built-in overrides.

I haven't really done anything with JSON before, but kind of want to make a barebones tracker for ff1 randomizer. Like, just toggles for items/locations. Is there any good documentation/info I could look at to help give me an idea on how to get started on making something?

FWIW, I don't vouch for how good of a reference for proper usage anybody's pack is except for mine.

My pack also provides an items only variant that may be a useful reference.

i noticed that holding down shift will cause all the locations to become visible while it's held down, which is useful in some scenarios. however, it stops working after a time for some reason, but i doubt it's caused by just time. is there some keyboard shortcut which disables hotkeys or something?

I believe your mouse needs to be hovering over the map for the shift key to show locations.

Hi, I've implemented a colour override for the green squares on one of the tracker packages and I was wondering if it was possible to make the override only apply to a specific package in EmoTracker instead of globally... (edited)

Color overrides apply globally. They are intended to support users with color blindness - accessibility colors are standardized quite deliberately.

Nicholas Steel 2019-05-02 11:51
Yeah, in my case I find it difficult to discern the green squares from the map when using the Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons packages by Herreteman so I overrode the colours of the squares to make them stand out more. But the new colour is hard to discern on the Super Metroid package.

There are a handful of things you could be attempting to accomplish that involve "resize".

A couple tracker location coloring questions (for Keysanity LTTP): * For Mimic Cave, its square is marked yellow until you have TR access (medallion hammer gold-glove), dark world stuff (pearl mirror), at least 3 keys... and fire rod. Why fire rod? I'm probably missing something but can't you get to Mimic Cave just fine with all the other required items in tow? * And after viewing the map, why 3 keys? You only need 2 in order to get to Mimic Cave glitch-free. * For Ice Palace, it seems to be marked green even if you have 0 small keys found for it. Don't you need (1? 2?) keys in order to clear it out? (It's also possible I'm misunderstanding green as "full clear-able" vs simply "can get to the boss and beat the dungeon") (edited)

Doctor Blue 2019-05-04 05:55
I've documented the Mimic Cave item requirement potential issues in a series of screenshots. I 100% admit I could be missing something obvious that makes these not bugs (I only started keysanity yesterday).

I don't think it is, in keysanity. even if you don't have access to those extra two chests you should be able to make it through if you have 2 keys.

It feels like standard randomizer logic applied to keysanity.

From fumbling with the buttons, yellow seems to be "You can beat the boss" and green "full-clerable"

Doctor Blue 2019-05-04 06:11
Okay. May have another bug then. Since (unless I'm wrong, which I can be because Ice Palace is "fun") it marks it as green for me even if I have 0 small keys found (keysanity).

Yellow usually = you can access some but not all Item Locations at that location. At least for website based trackers (edited)

the ice palace logic assumes you do IPBJ

IMO this should be changed because it gives poor information to anyone without perfect information about the game already
06:22
logically, you should need both small keys or 1 key + somaria to clear ice palace (plus the big key)
Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-04 06:23
Yeah, to my knowledge the tracker only goes green if you can do things glitch-free, while yellow / orange slanted more towards "limited without glitches" (I think that's Yellow in fact but don't 100% remember).

I've opened 8 of them so it should be 0 no ? 1 with the statue & knight (who has a key) 1 surrounded with statues 1 in jail 1 in the room in cross 3 where you need bomb. 1 in sanctu or did i got "lucky" and had a glitch ? feel free to @ me (edited)

Auto tracking for LTTP, when using my "official" LTTPR pack, does not track dungeon chests or what the dungeon rewards are. This is normal, and is for anti-cheat reasons, as my pack only supports race legal auto-tracking options. Other LTTPR packs may support this, but it's up to you to ensuring that you're complying with autotracking rules when participating in races. (edited)

So as a general question.... The chest count is the number of items in a dungeon right? What's not included in that? Keys and rupees?
Avatar
stephen 2019-05-06 10:05
the chest count is number of chests in dungeon minus big key/map/compass (as relevant) (edited)
10:05
then subtract any chest keys
10:06
basically, how many unique items can you find in a dungeon
10:07
so for instance, Escape has 8 chests in it. One is a map, one is a small key.
10:07
Thus, 6.

Shinji257 2019-05-06 10:08
Ahh ok. I always wondered but never could determine because when I did an easy mode it said 8 chests in escape and well...

@Shinji257 the number of chests counted in easy mode is different than whats counted in emotracker. in easy mode its counting the absolute number of chests, so 8 in escape. emo tracker will only count the number of useful items in a dungeon, so 6 in escape

There seems to be a few mistakes with the SM map tracker. I'm new to the game, so I'm using the tracker to help me reach all locations in my first 100% vanilla playthrough. Yesterday, I was completely lost until someone in my chat told me I had access to power bombs, but the area was in red on the tracker
Avatar
Natalie 2019-05-08 14:53
#pack-support, but probably more along the lines of the SM speedrunning discord (which has a randomizer channel, which will be able to help you understand the logic of the difficulty levels given in the tracker)
14:54
I can't help, personally, as my knowledge is strictly the logic used by SMZ3, but I can tell you that alpha power bombs is functionally accessible as soon as you reach red tower; eliminate the Rippers and walljump up, then shoot the shot block, drop down, and jump back up.
14:58
(additionally, the vanilla-intended sequence of items to reach alpha PBs is to acquire Ice Beam; you can break that by using a gate glitch to go kill Crocomire instead or by climbing red tower immediately as described)
Avatar
Cadenza 2019-05-08 15:10
well, I was stuck in the place where the only exists require the power bombs. I thought I was hard lock and I was going to restart my run
15:11
but it appears there were power bombs accessible down in that area. No matter the setting of difficulty, those should have appear accessible.
Avatar
Natalie 2019-05-08 15:18
i assume the doors are not changed in the SM rando from their vanilla colors
15:18
as such, the logic of the randomizer will never expect you to go in there at all without power bombs
15:19
because if they AREN'T in there, then, well, you're stuck, and that's no good
15:19
and you can save in there to make it permastuck, which is worse
15:20
an item location is never in the logic of any randomizer worth mentioning unless you can safely exit if the item you were hoping to find isn't in there

Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-10 10:57
I think I know what happened in my case. It wasn't the F5. It looks like when you press/hold spacebar the menu bar at the top (the gear, cloud, and refresh icons) become active. Usually just the Gear menu opens up. But once or twice the refresh/reset icon became active instead. And... poof :( (edited)
10:57
Unfortunately can't repro immediately. I'm trying to do though, since right now it seemed a random occurrence.
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-05-10 10:58
If that is what happened, that is standard windows control navigation before, which I'm not going to disable because it would interfere with other Windows utilities, including accessibility features in Windows itself. (edited)
Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-10 11:00
Ah yes, that is it. When alt tabbing at some point I did [space] instead of [alt]. And [space]+[tab] cycles through the options up there (gear, cloud, reset, minimize, maximize, close). And in the course of my fat-thumb alt-tabbing it hit Reset.
11:04
So, final suggestion: In the "Tracking" submenu that already exists (or "Application" maybe; any would do), add an option to disable reload functionality entirely. (And in complete nice-to-have territory, it'd be nice if those configurations could persist. Unless I'm missing how I can save them? I prefer "Always Allow Chest Manipulation" to remain enabled but I have to re-enable it on every startup) (edited)
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-05-10 11:07
Always allow chest manipulation is saved as part of saving progress
11:07
Feel free to create a starter save
11:07
There are reasons, currently, that those settings are not persisted.
11:08
BTW, if your issue is randomly keyboard navigating the menu, nothing will fully prevent you from doing anything, including toggling any setting I add there.
Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-10 11:11
It's not navigating the entire menu, just the top-level stuff on the title bar. So if you [space] after launching EmoTracker, it opens the Gear menu (but doesn't click anything within it). If you [space]+tab, packages opens. Two tabs is refresh. (edited)
11:12
Accidentally toggling settings is effectively impossible since would require intentional keyboard nav (arrow keys and such) to dig down to them.
Avatar
Natalie 2019-05-10 11:12
That's basically the entire menu
11:12
It's composed of buttons, not a traditional menu bar
Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-10 11:13
Right. And the reason the accidental space-tabbing happened is because Refresh is one of those buttons. Only the buttons can be accidentally activated with this particular buttonpress
11:13
(The other thing you could theoretically do, destructive-wise, is space+tab over to Close/X)
Avatar
Natalie 2019-05-10 11:21
Incidentally, is there any visual indicator for if something is highlighted by keyboard navigation?
Avatar
Doctor Blue 2019-05-10 11:22
There is, but it activates when you release the key. If you saw it while holding it down you could tab past it, but in the scenario of space-tabbing instead of alt-tabbing it's not likely to be caught.

Posting this here instead of Core bugs in case I'm overlooking something. Various actions seem to prevent Ctrl S from working when using this package (Super Metroid view). If you click in empty space within the Pinned and Item UI's or any blank space on the map the shortcut will stop working. Altering an item location on the map or toggling an Item in the Items UI won't get it working again either (which is really bad). cycling an item hint (dotted item square) will restore the functionality, losing focus and then restoring focus on Emotracker will restore the functionality, clicking the Headers above the map will restore the functionality.

If you want a transparent background, but for some reason you can't or don't want to use NDI, you can disable the drop shadows in the broadcast view by overriding its layout. The background color can be changed the same way. If you need help with that, feel free to ask in #customization-support

Hey, Emo. I tried out the multiworld support and it seems to be working great. I noticed 2 things though. There's no spot for entering a team name, which is fine for most cases. But if people want to race with a single host, then they'll need a way of choosing a team. Also, forfeiting and sending items to other players can cause excessive notifications if there's a lot of items, which can stretch the window when using an items-only variant. Somehow staggering those notifications so there's only X number on screen at a time would probably be better.
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-05-23 10:38
As for the first thing, team name will be coming soon'ish.
10:40
As for the second thing, that's extremely low priority right now. I'm not terribly interested in investing in significant UI changes at the moment for multi-world with items only variants, especially given that the Bonta version of multi-world is kinda definitely a time-limited affair pending the official one with actual hosting behind it, etc.
Avatar
JRJathome 2019-05-23 10:43
Fair enough. And you don't have it showing on the broadcast view, so it's not like it's gonna mess up any stream layouts.

Apologies if this has been asked. I searched and didn't see anything, but is there a way to disable the map automatically on startup? it's not a big deal, but it would be convenient. Is there a setting in the config file? Thanks, and sorry again if it was asked and i couldn't find it

Unfortunately, my ability to provide support starts when there’s any chance of EmoTracker running. If you’re unable to install the necessary version of the .Net framework, that’s something you’d have to take up with a Windows support person, either officially or elsewhere.

I tried searching through the discord to see if there was an answer, and if I missed it, I apologize. When I updated EmoTracker today, it stopped being able to open. Nothing shows; I have to view windows event logs to see that it crashes. I have tried 1) uninstalling and re-installing via the website, 2) running as admin, 3) running in windows 7 compatability (i'm on windows 10, but why not try something), 4) turned off all anti-virus, 5) ran Windows Update. I'll post my event logs below. I'm probably just missing something silly, I'm sure.

JRJathome 2019-06-26 17:07
I assume you're wanting a transparent background. Assuming you're using OBS, the easiest way would be to download and install the NDI plugin for OBS and capture the broadcast window as a NDI source instead of a window source. Most packs tend to leave the broadcast window's background color at the default setting which the NDI plugin doesn't render.
Avatar
Sal the Dragon 2019-06-26 17:08
So if you capture as NDI then your broadcast view will have no background?
Avatar
Natalie 2019-06-26 17:51
The video stream written to the internal NDI server will have an alpha channel, yes. The broadcast view window has a background, but if no background key is specified in any element, then there will be transparency in the NDI stream. (edited)

JRJathome 2019-06-26 18:35
Yep, here's a picture of my broadcast window, and how it looks on stream using the NDI plugin.

Hey So I'm new here. I'm trying to get alttpr auto tracking working on bizhawk. I've changed the core to BSNES, I'm running both programs as admin and I've tried loaded them in different orders. I set the Lua core to Lua+Lua in the customization options. I keep getting "Connecting to ConnectorLib host" in the game window the yellow robot in the emotracker window and "Failed to open socket: permission denied" in the Lua Console. Am I just missing something or is this a known issue?

#autotracker-support Follow the instructions in the pinned messages, and also make sure you’re not running crowd control as well.
Avatar
Tommy 2019-06-27 18:16
ok so I closed everything and I followed the directions in the pin comments and I'm still getting permission denied in the Lua console. I'm guessing its something on my computer keeping the programs from talking?
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-06-27 18:18
It’s certainly possible. You should also make sure in task manager that there are no old EmoTracker processes running. Beyond that, if you ever denied either app permission to use the network, that could cause this. You may want to try running both apps as administrator, although that is not generally necessary. Also, please put any subsequent messages about this in #autotracker-support (edited)

can you see which Windows 10 version is installed on your PC ? (Control Panel > System > Windows Edition) because old Win10 Enterprise release (2015) does not support .Net 4.7.2 (only 4.6) in this case, I think there is no other solution than reinstall a newer version of Windows 10 (2016 or 2019) as EmoSaru said, Microsoft support should be able to tell you more about this or give you another solution (edited)

Avatar
fylion 2019-07-10 14:57
Right-click the crystals in the tracker to cycle between regular crystal, 5/6 crystal, pendant, and green pendant.
14:58
Crystals 12347 are functionally the same as each other; if you collect both 5 and 6 you can unlock the pyramid fairy.
14:58
So crystal 3 would just be considered a regular crystal

When you say the broadcast view completely died, it would just be a blank window, or not open, or...?
Avatar
Clifford 2019-07-15 22:16
if you look at the OBS capture of it, that's what the broadcast window looked like, that wasn't just OBS freaking out coz of something
22:17
I tried re-opening it like 20 minss later and it was still that awkward box
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-07-15 22:25
Interesting. That definitely looks like rendering has hung for the window somehow. There are two possible culprits - something to do with your system (maybe GPU/drivers, maybe OBS, maybe system libraries), or NDI (even when not in use). I think I’m going to add a hard disable for NDI to the app settings to try and get to the bottom of this. (edited)

Just a quick question for anyone out there that cares to answer. Does Emo tracker work with Curtain emulators and Specific ones. If so, what emulator do people recommend. (Super Metroid)
Avatar
Dr. Stabthings 2019-07-16 09:19
most people would recommend Bizhawk for Emo Tracker, otherwise the other main supported one is SNES9x i believe.
Avatar
Natalie 2019-07-16 10:36
EmoTracker does not interface with any emulator unless you are using auto-tracking features, which are not available for all games.
10:36
Instructions for setting up autotracking for specific compatible emulators are pinned in #autotracker-support

Hey guys, first time messaging, so I hope all my questions are meant to be in this chat :) I've just installed Emotracker on recommendation. I'm running ALTTP on SNES9X via OBS for Twitch streaming. I'm trying to get the broadcast view to show on OBS, but I only seem to get a tiny red square appear when setting up as "game capture" (not sure if this step is right, just assuming it works in a similar way to my laptop capturing the emulator). Would there be anything I'm doing wrong here? Also, would anyone have any suggestions on managing the tracker whilst mid-run? Clicking off the emulator would stop my controller input, as well as majorly slow the run down. Sorry for the waffling and thanks in advance for any help :)
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-07-16 13:27
It should just be window capture, not game capture. Also, snes9x has a setting for not pausing when losing focus. You want to make sure that’s set properly.

Should application_settings.json be automatically part of the folder with emotracker? I don't seem to have any json files at all in the program folder; not sure if I'm just being IT-illiterate.
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-07-16 13:33
It will get saved as part of running the application normally. Certainly the first time you install and load a package.

bluesoxswj 2019-07-16 13:42
Ah, found it with a full search of my hard drive. Instead of leaving it in the program folder, my version of windows sticks it into C:\Users[me]\Documents\EmoTracker. Sorry for bothering.

Natalie 2019-07-16 13:45
That's an uncommon location (in general), but a common practice

configuration files landing in the program installation folder has caused many problems in the past, including but not limited to files not being written properly due to not having administrator level access

I tried changing the startup width and height, but I guess that wasn't what I was looking for. Is there anything I can do if a dungeon has too many checks to fit in the popup? Or is that all down to monitor size?

Monitor size is a big factor. I recommend double clicking the location to pin it, which may work better for you.

That means that you don’t have the correct rom loaded with autotracker enabled at the time you’re trying to connect

If you are loading the wrong rom, or have selected a player slot that doesn’t match the rom, that will happen.

I have my computer connected to my HD TV. I feel like the display might not be the issue. Or if it is then the issue is in a completely different direction.

Natalie 2019-07-25 14:41
I'm pretty sure the display is the issue here.
14:41
Your screenshot of a maximized EmoTracker window is 1280x680px, which tells me that your display resolution is 1280x720px i.e. 720p.
14:43
In order to see the full content of the sidebar in that tracker package, you need a window at least 840px tall.

Huh. I'll see what I can do about fixing that. I had my resolution set that way because it tended to work best with most of my programs.

It could be. One person who has this issue on “Windows 10” was actually running some kind of variant version, possibly a server version, that didn’t support 4.7.2

Hm one thing to note is there are still different builds of Windows 10, 1903 is the latest, but before that was 1809 etc etc. Sometimes it might be helpful to pull up winver (windows key + r and type "winver" without the "'s and give the build information as well) 😃 @Velocikitty just for future reference 😄 Safe to say however that since your install was so recent its probably 1903 but would be good to double check as sometimes MS holds back builds for certain hardware configurations that are known to have issues.

I just have a simple question. Is there a way to pick a standard size when the tracker first opens? It's always HUGE and just slightly too big off the bottom of my laptop screen, so I have trouble actually finding the bottom corner to resize it. I have to grab the top, sink it, then grab the side to pull it in... each time I open the app. (edited)

yeah, that setting is not saved globally. That said, if you create a save with your tracker setup the way you like it, you can load that as a starting point. It will remember both the window size and that setting.

Well, while I'm on the topic, this might have something to do with it. I couldn't actually download the pack through the tracker. It just sorta downloaded, flickered at the end, and just... never saved it. My friend gave me a copy of the zip that I put in the pack folder, and that worked fine, however.
17:59
So perhaps theres something there that effected it

Lechtansi 2019-08-26 14:08
i don't know if this is the right channel, but i just ran into a confusing experience in a pack and wanted to describe it. in the #faq, it says that orange squares are for "you can collect some, but not all of the items in this location". Yellow says "the chests in this location are available via sequence break, but in a dungeon, it can also mean that you can collect some, but not all the items in the dungeon." In the official LTTP pack, as far as i can tell, orange always means "some but not all" and yellow means "sequence break". However, in another pack, the author uses yellow to mean "some but not all" because thats also part of the guidance in #faq. it seems weird to me that yellow contains both, when it would be simpler (at least from my perspective) to make orange mean "some" and yellow mean "sequence break". Is there a reason why its like this?
Avatar
Natalie 2019-08-26 14:09
key layouts make dungeons not guaranteed full clearable in some scenarios
14:10
in the event a dungeon check is yellow, it is either "possible, but not yet in logic, based on the layout of items in the dungeon"
14:10
or it is "not logically possible, but a sequence break can help you"
14:11
orange is specifically a map marker color and indicates that there is a mixture of in-logic and not-in-logic locations, regardless of whether those locations are sequence breaks or impossible to achieve
Avatar
Lechtansi 2019-08-26 14:47
That makes sense. Just because it’s a lot clearer in LTTP doesn’t meant it’s like that for other games
Avatar
Natalie 2019-08-26 14:57
that said, if a pack is definitely not following that, complaining is fair game
Avatar
Lechtansi 2019-08-26 15:04
This is my first time playing LADXR, but the pack was using yellow to indicate “partially clearable.” I don’t know enough about the game to know if it was also sequence breakable or not, but given that all dungeons are yellow instead of orange I think he is using it to mean partially clearable. But it could also be like hyrule castle in LTTP - “if you get lucky, this is full clearable”
Avatar
Natalie 2019-08-26 15:06
..ah, right, the "partial clear" meaning
15:07
i spaced for a moment that item checks being stacked together have to be accounted for
15:08
without some very, very aggressive in-depth logic and tracker writing, you can't really define which areas are and aren't accessible by key layout as far as dungeons go
15:09
so yellow on a lumped "all dungeon item checks" can indicate "you can definitely get some of these, but not all of them"
15:10
where possible, pack devs should be splitting items into groups based on the conditions in which they become accessible
15:10
but the 2D zeldas also cram so many items into such a small space it's hard to put meaningful names to many checks
15:11
readability and accuracy have to meet somewhere
Avatar
Lechtansi 2019-08-26 15:20
i guess we could standardize on orange being "partially clearable" and yellow to meaning "clearable if you sequence break"
15:21
but again my viewpoint is very narrowly contained to 2d zelda games
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-08-26 15:58
Technically, orange is “mixed accessibility”
15:59
Which really means that there are multiple accessibility levels within the location, some of which of minimally accessible/checkable to some degree.
16:00
That is a hard thing to communicate in a way that makes sense to players though, especially given that precisely what packs treat as sequence breaks is up to the pack author.

I automatically get crash reports so long as the application exception handler runs and you have an active internet connection, but I have not seen one with anything actionable that looks related to this.

That can happen if it’s crashing deep enough in the OS, and there’s not much I can do about it.

So, I was mistaken about which update was causing my issue, as Event Viewer was citing d3d9.dll as the faulting module(really should have checked there sooner). If I uninstall the latest cumulative update (KB4515384) everything starts working again, but the issue comes back if I reinstall the update. This same issue with this update seems to have popped up in a few other niche cases with other applications, so I think I can only roll back and pause the updates for a week and hopefully Microsoft will have fixed it by then.

Yeah I noticed that, why keep the seams though? Surely someone has better sources for the images? I actually expected it to be a issue with the scaling algorithm not lining up the images correctly, rather than an issue present within the image files themselves.

EmoSaru 2019-09-22 22:25
Each map is a single image.
22:26
The reason I have no plans to fix the seams is because I have other things to do with the time it would take to go find and photoshop all of them out.

How many pixels wide is the seam?

So, instead of fixing the seams we've managed to locate some images that work perfectly in Emotracker when resized to 2007x2007 pixels: http://www.finalfantasykingdom.net/z3/map1.png http://www.finalfantasykingdom.net/z3/map2.png Presumably permission would be needed from the people that made those images before they can be used.

Is there a way to hide the Items and Pinned Locations UI's? I'd like to use the ALttP map tracker for automated tracking of places I've checked and don't need those 2 UI's wasting screen space that can be used by another program. I can easily track my items and key usage in the in-game inventory menu. Emotracker should automatically track my items so the location markers should accurately reflect what is accessible as I do stuff in the game without having to mess with the Items UI (at least everything but what's in the top pinned message).

deserteagle417 2019-09-23 02:14
you can make an override of the tracker.json file and remove that stuff, I suppose.

"Is there a way to move/hide--" Yes, export an override and do it yourself.

Hello, I noticed when I got the Ether Medallion, and I right clicked on the tracker for the thing, I noticed it had extra options for Misery Mire, Turtle Rock, and both
12:59
do I check them when I have them completed or when they're NOT completed?
Avatar
JRJathome 2019-09-23 13:09
That's to mark which medallion is needed to open the MM and TR entrances.

ohhhhh, so i need to be able to go to both and see what medallion is needed for both

Alright, so since I cant get to MM rn since I probably need the flute and flippers, I'll check turtle rock.

That doesn't make a scrap of sense because they should use the same assets 👀
Avatar
Nicholas Steel 2019-09-24 00:15
Well you're seemingly correct but that leaves me further confused. When I first opened Emotracker today I could resize the application window and the seams would never render/be visible. After changing back and forth between packages and subsequent openings of the program the seams are always visible.
Avatar
Rain 2019-09-24 00:15
they are the same image

maybe layout changes make them disappear with how they're scaled?

Subtle variations in the layout will absolutely affect how visible the seams are.
00:21
Due to image scaling/sampling.

aren't the seams also roughly 1px wide anyway

i'm curious what purpose the seams served when the image was first created, but oh well
Avatar
deserteagle417 2019-09-24 01:05
Yea, they're 1-2px wide. Perhaps this image's creator wanted to section of different "sections" of the map?

I used to think they stitched the map together, but that doesn't really make sense...

22:28
hm
22:29
I'd like to request a screenshot of the window (particularly compared to, say, your taskbar).
22:31
..actually, I might argue that this is a pack design issue
22:31
I just loaded it up myself
Avatar
Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 22:32
I did manage to squeeze a bit more room out of it but sure one sec
Avatar
Natalie 2019-09-25 22:32
not worried about the resolution at this point, or seeing a screenshot
22:33
there are two ways to argue this
22:33
one: Pinned Locations needs to be able to compete with the map for some space (which I believe can be accomplished with a change to the order of pane definitions)
22:34
two: you're just going to have to use the tracker window in a more 4:3 resolution, rather than maximizing it
22:35
the problem is that Pinned Locations, being the last defined docked pane in its container, doesn't make any attempt to assert a minimum size for itself
22:36
the map pane does, as it has a defined dock position
22:36
the last defined (and by requirement undocked) pane in a container takes "whatever's left over" for space
22:36
when the map gets bigger horizontally, it gets bigger vertically as well, and starts not leaving things for the pinned locations
Avatar
Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 22:37
I figured out that I get much more room for pins if I set the window to the left half of the screen, so that should reduce (if not necessarily solve) the issue
22:37
which I assume is close to your solution two
Avatar
Natalie 2019-09-25 22:37
your options are to use the tracker in a narrower window or to restructure the pack using an override
22:37
let me see what i can do with an override 👀
Avatar
Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 22:38
I do get quite a bit of room with it as is, it's just when I have many locations pinned (keys, money, key items) especially from packed locations that it becomes an issue
Avatar
Natalie 2019-09-25 22:38
for a minute I was worried that you were having a problem vaguely similar to someone else's problem ages ago; not worth getting into the details there, just the resolution you listed made me worried
22:40
the alternative, creating an override, will shrink the map instead when Pinned Locations gets items
22:41
e.g. https://puu.sh/EltMK.png
Embedded image
Avatar
Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 22:41
that actually looks far more convenient
Avatar
Natalie 2019-09-25 22:42
I would argue that this is the ideal solution from the get-go, as using the map tracker maximized seems to be a very common practice
22:42
finding a balance in the number of locations you keep pinned and when you pin and unpin them will help
22:42
some of it's user shenanigans
22:45
I literally just switched the position of two elements; if you want this override, export var_maptracker/layouts/tracker.json and replace lines 42-66 with
{ "type": "dock", "content": [ { "type": "group", "dock": "bottom", "header": "Pinned Locations", "margin": "3,0,0,0", "content": { "type": "recentpins", "style": "wrap", "h_alignment": "stretch", "v_alignment": "stretch", "orientation": "horizontal", "compact": true } }, { "type": "map", "map": [ "termina" ] } ] }
Avatar
Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 22:46
if I do this, will my tracker save be retained? or is this something I should do before my next seed so I don't potentially lose data
Avatar
Natalie 2019-09-25 22:57
Applying this override should not affect the function of your save file, as it does not affect anything which the save file needs to be able to remember. I'm fairly certain of that.
22:57
Regardless, if it doesn't accept the save file, you can just delete the override. It won't irreparably break the save.

Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 23:00
all right I'll give it a shot 🙂

Zap_Rocket 2019-09-25 23:11
I must be doing something wrong, I exported override, opened and edited the file, and nothing seems to have changed. My guess is I'm missing a step in applying the override somehow?

You've saved the file (and your tracker state) and then refreshed the tracker, correct?

the usual way is that you manually check off all the items you have and the locations you have visited/checked (by rightclicking them), though this is usually easier when you have just started a new run.

autotracking for OoT doesn't exist per se and cannot have official support at the moment, though some work is and has been done on the topic (I can keep you in the loop if you pm me)

EmoTracker is not a single-game tracker, it's a platform for building/distributing trackers. If you're interested in building something for EmoTracker, you want #customization-support. If you're interested in building your own application from scratch, that's not something we can/will help with here.

Resizing the window is your only option

unless, of course, you have your Windows DPI scaling cranked up above 100%, in which case setting it to 100% can mitigate the issue

When I click update in the package manager the green bar does progress and then nothing happens and I still have ''Updates Available" I must have clicked this about 50 times now and still updates. I am really updating or is this a bug?

There are a few possible causes, but the first question I have is, did you do something silly and either export an override for manifest.json in the pack, or even worse, unzip it?
Avatar
Scaryolive 2019-11-01 15:17
Probably not but I do remember trying to modifing my layout a few months ago but I am terrible at coding stuff so I gave up. I know I had to do some json stuff but I couldnt remember if I messed with those
15:17
I've tried uninstalling emotracker and re-installing it but when I do my packages are still there

EmoSaru 2019-11-01 15:18
If you haven't made any overrides you care about keeping, deleting the Documents/EmoTracker/user_overrides/<pack id> folder (edited)
15:18
then refresh the tracker
15:18
and see if it improves things

Scaryolive 2019-11-01 15:18
Ok thanks
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-11-01 15:19
if that doesn't help, check in the Documents/EmoTracker/packs folder and see if you have a plain folder (not zipped) for the pack
15:19
if you do, delete it
Avatar
Scaryolive 2019-11-01 15:20
Deleting my packs and re-installing it from scratch seems to have done it
15:21
Thanks a lot!
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-11-01 15:21
np, glad it's resolved
15:21
for the future, definitely never unzip a pack
15:21
also, if you run into update issues again in the future, and haven't exported overrides or unzipped anything
15:22
you'll want to check your protected folders settings in windows defender
15:22
but usually that breaks installing packages as well

LordVysh 2019-11-06 22:56
Is this package server actually down or is my install broken?
22:59
Haha yep. Install was broken.

If you did everything it said to do in bizhawk, I don't think that's possibly true

There's a step about changing the Lua interface that it appears you've missed.
18:49
at least, that's where I've seen the error you've posted

ill double check but im 100% certain i got everything down

and when you open the connector.lua all the adjacent files must be there too

you can't pull the connector lua out of its folder

Had a strange bit of confusion here, I had access to mire with no gloves via Norfair in the combo randomizer. Well checkerboard appeared in logic according to the tracker like this:

Hi! I have a small question : I like to change the default size of the tracker, when opening. I know there is a file where I can change it, but I don't remember which one it is and where to find it. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks

You can apply scales and other things to the pack(s) you're using. Search in #customization-support

Is there a way to sort of do chathud tracking but without twitch chat? I have a stream deck like device that I might want to use.
Avatar
Sal the Dragon 2019-11-17 15:43
There is, it's called clicking the items on your tracker lol Or do you mean like an auto tracker type thing?
Avatar
EmoSaru 2019-11-17 16:30
There is not currently a way to do that, and I have no intention of adding one.

Ringhun 2019-11-18 13:59
I'm not sure why it isn't working. I downloaded the setup.exe, but when I try to run (even using run as admin), I'm getting the following error: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access them.
Avatar
MikeTrethewey | Axiom Verge 2019-11-18 16:41
That last one may indicate a need to Run as Administrator.

hi all, im new here and I just installed emotracker for ootr , but i still don't fully get it.. I have the small window with items that are available ingame...but it doesn't show the items I already got... Do I have to do something specific or is it beacuse i didn't use the itemtracker from start of game?
21:37
Im halfway in the game before i downloaded and installed it (edited)

fylion 2019-11-18 21:40
I don't think zootr has autotracking support. You'll have to click the items yourself.

aaah that explains it

Adjust the window size. Iirc the program has a minimum desktop resolution recommendation. Unpin things you're not currently interested in if the issue is with pinning. (edited)

Is there a way to make the tooltip delay a shorter time? I've been playing the Illusion of Gaia rando and the EmoTracker for it would be great, except some of the items are very hard to distinguish. I end up mousing over, waiting like 10 seconds for the tooltip, and being very careful to move the mouse in such a way that I don't lose it
