Lite Combat Tracker

[Shinzul]

Doh - I accidentally uploaded an old version of LCT!

THIS is the one you want to use: LCT Setup (v0.9).exe

Sorry about that!

Edit: Also, please feel free to send me an in-game mail or tell. (Permafrost.Shinzul)

how can anything requiring java be liter than ACT, just wondering.

[Shinzul]

Java is actually faster than C++ at everything but floating point calculations. It's a teeny tiny margin, but it's still faster. Also, LCT has few features that impact the performance of the application as a whole.

Anyway, the programming language has little effect on how well an application performs nowadays... unless you're writing in some antiquated language.

When I try to run after install it says "Could not find class" I have java installed. Does it require a specific version of java? I have 1.5.0.110

It still requires the JVM to load up which is still a high memory requirement.

While I'll agree with you that pure Java is quite fast, Lite, when being used as a programming term, generally means less memory intensive and Java isn't the best language to use in that case.

It still may very well be less memory intensive than ACT since it uses .NET which uses a lot of memory.

send me that damn rar file so i can host it :P

Of course you could compile it directly for windows skipping over the JVM, making it faster for sure.

All in all, I've designed it to suck up a small amount of total memory (<50 mb of RAM typically). Even though Java doesn't have the smallest memory footprint with the JVM in mind, it does allow lots of flexibility and I'm addicted to the garbage collector.

Lithin - I appreciate your being willing to host the file, but I got a domain set up for it now .

okay fair enuf
