Hi Tore, I've been following what you've been doing with great interest, and

get it to work.  I've downloaded the program and extracted it to my LDraw
directory.  I run it in a command window since double-clicking the datshine.exe
file quits automatically.  But when I run it within a command window, I get the
following error:


C:\LDRAW>datshine

Datshine v 1.02 by Tore Eriksson

LDraw Base Directory not found!
Please set LDRAWDIR environment string.

Am I doing something wrong?  I really hope I can get this program to work, it
looks like it can do some really cool things.

Thanks,

Hi Matt,

I'm glad you find my project interesting. It's been down due to an assumed HD
crash (that fortunately turned out to be no more than just a loose cable!) but
after the Holidays, I'll pick it up again.

Before running datshine, please enter:
C:\LDRAW\set LDRAWDIR=C:\LDRAW
in the same command window.
If this fix works, you may edit C:\autoexec.bat by adding the line
set LDRAWDIR=C:\LDRAW
and reboot. Then you won't need to enter this environment string anymore.

Next step for me is to make datshine less picky about using LDRAWDIR, but that
will be a couple of days from now. Meanwhile, this tips should help you.

(...) Actually, autoexec.bat only works in DOS/Windows9x/WindowsME. In NT/Win2K/XP/Vista, you set environment variables via the System Control Panel.
