I copy-paste the allinone package in my old application folder to replace everything and It throws the following errors… do you know what goes wrong?

java.exe -jar HeroScribe.jar

Seems like a memory issue, try to follow this guide in order to run HeroScribe with the All-In-One Icon Pack installed.

I didn’t know about the memory arguments of java... but still have an error... :(

.\allinone>"C:\Program Files/Java/jre6/bin/java" -Xms2048M -Xmx2048M -jar HeroScribe.jar
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.


When I reinstall the HeroScribe without the allinone pack, all runs well by executing:
"C:\Program Files/Java/jre6/bin/java" -jar HeroScribe.jar

I think the problem is the -Xms2048M argument...

ps: my os is win7

Well, turn it down a little then, let's try it with 1024M on both arguments and let me know if that works!

I've used this system for some of my quests but how can I make them like real quest books? :?: :?: :?:

merged in appropriate topic ;)

HeroScribe is for making questmaps. Then you save the maps as an image, and import them into the other tool that makes booklets, or you use the Word template.

He should use HQ Quest Maker too...

You will need two programs.

The first is the HQ Quest Maker (viewtopic.php?f=165&t=1299) where you are importing the HeroScribe’s png map and it has an interface to write your quest and to export the quest’s page.

And the second is the Booklet Creator (viewtopic.php?f=165&t=1392) where you can import all your quests from “HQ Quest Maker” (or other pages e.x. front/back cover), and it creates a ready to print pdf.

Feel free to ask questions.

To use this system, you would need to load lot of stuff, wich I can't do. I'm using my mothers laptop and I'm not allowed to download these to her computer. But thanks anyway. |_P
