Socket Error

Cundiff · September 12, 2018, 1:45pm

Ok, I have found where I can change the MaxHeap size to 1024 in the Module Preferences. Is this the maximum to which it can be changed?

I’ve still got a module that indicates the exact same problem. It hangs up at 23% and indicates a Socket problem, the same one as indicated previously, and the one which began this saga.

Keep adjusting it higher, though you are going to be limited by the amount of RAM your computer has (and the operating system itself is going to consume some of that). For example, if you have 8 GB of RAM, try a max heap of 2048 (one quarter of your RAM). There will be some trial and error here.

Cundiff · September 12, 2018, 8:42pm

Well, I’m limited. I have all of 3 Gb of Ram. Not much. So, I will have to repair that first.

I did manage to get Java Updated.

Thanks,
Tom

Thus spake Cundiff:

VASSAL.launch.AbstractLaunchAction - Loading module file
C:\Users\Customer\Downloads\Anthon\l’Epee de Anthon.vmod

Where can I find this module so I may test it?

I’ll have to send it to you. It’s a situation in which the original module was based upon a scenario that had errors in it. I was attempting to rebuild the module by inserting a new map and new counters into the old module, replacing the old files which contained errors. There are several of the l’Epee modules whose original builds are based upon scenarios that later had Errata to correct errors. However, the designers of the modules never returned to correct the error laden modules. So, I’ve been attempting to make these repairs for Frederic Bey (the game designer).

Thus spake Cundiff:

I’ll have to send it to you.

Please do. My address is uckelman@nomic.net, or if the module is very
large, upload it somewhere and send me a link.

Dropbox Link sent.

Got the link. I’ll try to look at the module sometime this week.

Module simply refused to load.

Cundiff · September 20, 2018, 7:49pm

I deleted the Tanga file. Downloaded a new copy. The opened that new module. It seems to have fixed the problem. Man computers are annoying.

Cundiff · October 19, 2018, 5:02am

It’s a new month. The requested l’Epee de Anthon.vmod is still loaded to my DropBox account. I had hoped it would have been reviewed to find out why it continues to cease loading at 23% and reveal a “Socket Error”. It’s url is again posted here: dropbox.com/s/zta1aai17o7u0 … .vmod?dl=0

Due to the time lag with this project I was forced to use a different scenario for the Series Replay article I was writing. However, I’d still like to find out WHY this module has this error, because it could once more occur as I rebuild and repair old modules that have Errata errors.

JoelCFC25 · October 19, 2018, 3:13pm

I get the same error with your module. The image tiling seems to barf on the file: Anthon Map RESIZED.PNG

I’m not surprised, because this is a really large image, clocking in at 5309x7277 pixels. In order to get this module to load, you are probably going to have to either resize it down to a more manageable size and sacrifice a little bit of detail (this may require a bulk resizing of all your game piece images as well, however), or slice it up into sections and compose your game map of these.

JoelCFC25 · October 19, 2018, 3:29pm

In fact, you already have a much smaller resolution image of the game map in your module: Anthon.jpg, which is 1302x1834 pixels. It seems to match the sizes of your game pieces as well.

I already successfully tried editing the module to use that image as your game map, then removed the gigantic PNG image from the module altogether and everything tiles and loads fine.

Cundiff · October 19, 2018, 8:10pm

The problem is that the counters have errors on them too. So they need replaced. Didn’t know the smaller map was still in it. But it needs removed. The smaller counters were also poor (fuzzy).

JoelCFC25 · October 21, 2018, 2:56am

I can’t vouch for what might occur on your system, but on my Mac I was able to turn the gigantic PNG image into a JPG (max quality) and use that for the map instead. It ended up tiling without errors and loading successfully.

Cundiff · October 21, 2018, 7:33pm

Excellent. I had thought you had to use a png for the maps. I’ll try that.

tar · October 21, 2018, 11:09pm

As a general rule, JPG really should only be used for photo-like images.
If you have text or line art (which most games do), you are usually better
off with PNG format images.

This would potentially also help if the counters are fuzzy, as the JPEG
compression will often leave artifacts arounds text or lines.
That said, Joel is probably right that you don’t an image file quite that
big.

PNG would always be my preference as well, but my comments were strictly limited to the finding that making the map into a JPG for some reason allowed tiling to occur and the module could be opened without crashing.

uckelman · October 24, 2018, 7:39pm

Thus spake Cundiff:

It’s a new month. The requested l’Epee de Anthon.vmod is still loaded
to my DropBox account. I had hoped it would have been reviewed to find
out why it continues to cease loading at 23% and reveal a “Socket
Error”.

I’m looking at it now.

The problem is that “Anthon Map RESIZED.PNG” requires more RAM for tiling
than the tiler is being given.

How much physical RAM does your machine have?
Regardless of the solution to the problem, I suggest downscaling this
map image. It’s a 10x15 hex grid. At 25% zoom, I can already see the
dots from the four-color printing, which normally one does not see with
the naked eye unless you look very closely. If you rescaled the map to
25% with a good scaling algorithm (like Lanczos/Sinc) you’d have a map
that both avoids the problem and looks better.
