CCT Not working

[Roux-er]

Okay,

I know this is already posted but not on this version of java

Im not a techno geek, But CCT starts up with that cube picture, but after 10 seconds, it closes. I recently installed that new java. (I use a mac) I made sure Java 6 is on top. What is the Solution?

I think it was java 8 :confused:

Are you still having issues with it?

Assuming you're still having issues with it, do other Java based programs work on your computer? If they do and CCT is the only one that does not work, try completely removing CCT and download it from the website again.

If no other Java based programs work on your computer, then something must have gone wrong when you upgraded to the newer version of Java. Try reinstalling it again in this case.

Another thing that might be worth trying is to create another account to see if the same thing happens there - this could rule out any software setting tied in with your main account.

If all else fails, you can attempt a PRAM reset. Restart the computer and keep holding down the "Apple", "Option", "P", and "R" keys until you hear the Apple chime at least twice.

Let us know how it turns out.

Ok where can i download it again? that main one is down

There was a thread brought up like a week ago. Apple decided to update Java LAST MONDAY, and it made CCT stop working. I talked to Jeremy about it, and there was nothing he could figure out. There really isn't anything we can do atm but wait and hope apple fixes it.

This worked for me. Version 0.9.3.

I traced the bug in java to be related to truetype font loading and the security manager used for scramble plugins.

I've got some crappy internet atm so i can only upload a patch

!!! This patch disables security for scramble plugins. ONLY use the official plugins !!!

 

[hr.mohr]

Or you could try the Soylatte port

 

[masterofthebass]

wow Mads. that's great How would I go about applying this patch? From what I see, it would require me to recompile the program, which even though I have the source, is not something I know how to do.

I'll upload a compiled version when I get back home later tonight. This was what I could upload using my cellphone in the train this morning

Replace the CALCubeTimer.jar with this one and set Scramble_Plugins_secure=false in profiles/defaults.properties

Let me repeat: DONT EVER USE A PRECOMPILED SCRAMBLE PLUGIN WITH THIS. If you do it's your own fault if your computer get's p0wned. No I will not fix your computer

 

[masterofthebass]

It's good if we wrote/compiled the plugins ourselves right?

-EDIT-

Hmm, everything seems to work, but I'm not able to get into the configuration window and I'm missing some of the menu buttons in the main window.

 

[hr.mohr]

I'll have look at it again tomorrow.

I've tested the soylatte port and it works with the unaltered version. It's an older VM running in X11, but it works.

Its relieving to know that I'm not the only one who encountered this problem, I literally spent two hours yesterday looking for a solution but to no avail.

...thus I deeply look forward to it working again thanks.

 

[Roux-er]

Ok, can you simplify? I'm really stupid when it comes to computers. I downloaded and tried what Mads said. No success.


P.S. Thanks Thrawst!

hr.mohr: Thanks a bunch for looking into this! I'm most impressed that you were able to navigate the maze of code that is cct. And with just your cell phone?!

masterofthebass: Yeah, I'm sorry I couldn't help you out a couple days ago, my laptop is still far far away, and I don't have any internet.
