Sun have recently released a new version JRE 6 Update 6; don't know if they have fixed something or not.
i don't use Vista, so i cannot try it myself.

yep and this is the part you must do to make it work but i dotn know exactly how to set it correct so stuff still dont work for me. "The public JRE installed with the 32-bit JRE is not registered. You must set the PATH environment variable to point to JAVA_HOME \bin to register the JRE."

I used JRE 6 update 6 on my xp machine before running the scanner and it works fine

well were not talking xp.. and yes it does work just fine on xp.. it's the vista 64bit that is the problem

I am using the scanner on vista without any problems. eu also runs well on vista

just for a test... have you tried sending the "-d64" directive to java?

So something like...
"java -d64 -jar Scanner.jar"

I've only ever had to turn that on when I wanted > 4GB of memory though. You'll have to get the 64 bit version of the vm of course for that to work.

I have a request.

Since you know the skill curves, it would be nice if you could, for example, scan your skills, go on a 1000 ped hunt, scan your skills again, and in the progress section, or a new section, it would show you

How many times you'd need to repeat this to reach:

Commando:
Kill Strike:
Combat Sense:
Quickness:
Avoidance:
etc.

Is there a way I can do this now, manually?

As i said, it's vista 64, not 32 as your running.

nope, but wont solve it. it's the path you have to set cause java cant find the correct place to look if you dont set it manually. I know where to set it but not exactly what to type, so if anyone knows how to set paths in vista and exactly what to type plz let me know

Yes you calculate the TT value change of each skill. This is linear, then you back calculate what TT value of skill you would require to reach XX professions. Then (sum(TT_value_required)-sum(current_skills_TT_value))/sum(TT_value_change_for_1kped_hunt)

you must include in the PATH variable the "bin" sub-directory where java.exe and javaw.exe are located. this depends on where did you choose to install it. in my box, it is:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_05\bin

how to add this to the PATH variable, in XP, is very easy:
- Right click on "My PC", select "Properties"
- Go to tab "Advanced options"
- Click button "Environment variables"
- Look for variable "Path" (under "System variables"), and add the directory i typed above.

most probably in vista it will be different, but i don't think that's something you cannot find yourself by googling a bit, eh?

Edit: ok, ok, i looked it up for you see here:
