That line looks slightly different in my source tree.
Please try the most recent version from SVN: http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcprojects/lnet/trunk
(I updated the wiki page again :-))

I updated the wiki page accordingly.
To my surprise, the build still works pretty flawless with the current FreePascal and Lazarus versions.

Changes (in short):

• VirtualTreeView v5 is recommended (URL updated)
• MultiLog URL updated
• Lazarus 1.6 (or 1.7) and FPC 3.0 recommended
• Checkout/Clone URL updated (requires HTTPS)

If that does not help you get it compiling, let me know and we will sort this out.

If you want to work on a fork of CentrED, I can happily provide you with an account to https://hg.aksdb.de so you can push your changes (and maybe have me review them ).
Also I would be very happy if you find a way to "enhance" CentrED with your changes, i.e. leave it compatible to the old MUL format while still being able to recognize and use the new one. That way we could incorporate the changes and don't have to provide two different versions.
That being said: I would be very happy if you publish your changes so all of the UO community can profit from them. Of course the license I chose for CentrED allows you to keep changes to yourself ... it's up to you :-)

But in any case: just tell me when you get stuck.

Oh damn, that wiki page really got out of date.
I restructured and modernized some parts of CentrED two years ago ... and also my website changed a bit - it requires HTTPS now.

Therefore to get the source (which you already have ;-)): hg clone https://hg.aksdb.de/CentrED

As far as I can tell, you should be good to go using the most recent Lazarus version (which usually bundles the right FreePascal compiler) from http://www.lazarus-ide.org/.
lnet, multilog, virtualtrees and so on should also be used in their most recent versions. BUT just to be sure, I will setup a fresh development environment tomorrow and note the necessary steps and URLs so I can update the wiki. If you give me one to two days, you should be good to go.

Hmm, interesting scenario. Currently I handle multiple maps by running multiple instanced of cedserver on different ports. That worked perfectly fine. But I never had the intention to copy areas between maps, which of course is not possible that way.

I'll add the feature request to the bug tracker. I can't promise you, when or if I'll implement it. But at least you drew my interest ;-)

Not having that feature was by design. Since the map can be edited by many people at the same time, the overview maps need to be kept at sync during all active clients. The more details the map shows, the more load would be on the server and the network just for keeping them synchronized. That's why I decided a scale of 1:8 would be a good compromise.

Please refer to this "solution". 

CentrED stores some information about the form positions (maximized yes/no, x, y, width, height). For whatever reason it might have happened, that these pointed to coordinates off the actual screen, therefore practically rendering the window "invisible".

I guess you are using Windows Vista or later and have UAC turned on? In that case you should make sure that the files you edit are in a directory owned by  the user that runs cedserver - preferably inside your home directory. Otherwise the modifications simply land in the Virtual Store and are therefore invisible to other programs.

So..congratulations for the wonderful utility first!

Thanks! :-)

I have an issue since a couple of days, after login the application just disappears.
Trought task manager i can see it in the processes, but nothing in applications, and i have no windows, nor icon on the application bar.
Login is succesful (server on another pc says i'm logged in) but no application seems to run.

I tried a new installation, tried to change location of .mul files, no change.
Run with admin rights and compatibility with xp sp3, vista, and stuff, no way.

Win7 64, no update nor change as far as i know on the pc before issue started.

Help? ^^

Try deleting c:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\CentrED\CentrED.xml while CentrED is not running (check the task manager please). If that doesn't help either, you could also delete the whole directory ... that shouldn't be necessary though.

Hope that helps! :-)

CentrED.exe should already be signed. You can check that by going into the properties of that file.

Probably yes, as far as I can tell even without much trouble. FreePascal support ARM in different flavours. Since you probably also use Linux, lNet (the networking library cedserver uses) should also compile and run fine.

Just give it a shot, it should compile without any changes I don't have any ARM device around so I can't really test it.

I'll investigate as soon as I have time again. Sorry for the trouble!

This version is mainly a bug fix release. There were several crashes reported on the forum and the bug tracker that should be fixed now. In more detail:

• Fixed crash when opening the filter dialog
• Fixed crash when performing Undo
• Fixed crash when moving items

Thank you for all your feedback!

I'll take a look at this as well. See: http://redmine.aksdb.de/issues/88

Please consider directly posting bug reports in the bug tracker. Thanks again for your feedback :-)

Program ... I guess I compiled with some debug code left. I'll fix it this weekend (probably).
