I get this error on one of two computers. Both computers have the latest Internet Explore. The only difference is one is Vista and one is XP. No problems with Firefox. I emailed Easypano support a couple days ago, no response yet.

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert com.easypano.tourweaver.controls::TWHotspot@4bfd941 to com.easypano.tourweaver.controls.TWRadar.

Are there any others that get a warning or is it just me?

Loads fine on my Windows 7, IE 8.0 system.
Try clearing your cache totally and try again. Also be sure your Java Platform dependencies are up to date.

Regards, Smooth

I cleared the cache, no change. I re-installed Java from a fresh download, rebooted (for good measure) re-opened TW5 and published tour locally and it still plays fine with firefox and I still get the errors with IE. I also get errors with the preview within TW5.

This did not start happening until I added the "map". If there are no other suggestions I may delete the map (floorplan) and add one thing at a time and test along the way to see what component causes the issue.

Thanks

My resolution is a follows:

I delete the hotspots on the map and then reinserted. After doing so I do not get any more errors.

Latest beta version:

Tour (attempt4)

One thing I did notice though if you look at the floorplan is that only one of the hotspots seems to have a mouse over effect. all the others are static. The settings are identical amongst all hotspots. At least they link to the scenes correctly and do not throw errors. I'll live with it for now.

All works fine for me on XP with IE 8

Except for play doesn't work, and scene selector doesn't work. but no Java errors.

Nice tour quality, I really like the concept, what equipment do you use to take the images if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for your input.

You say "Play" and the "Scene selector" tab do not work.

What button are you clicking for "play" because I don't really have a "play button" on there anywhere. The "Scene Selector" tab works for me in all browsers so I'm not sure what to think. This tour template will be used going forward up to 20 times a week so I hope it works.

Equipment? I Shoot with a Nikon D300 and a Sigma 8mm fisheye and a really old but reliable manfratto panohead. The only thing I don't like about it is that you cannot shoot up or down but for 95% real estate tours I don't care.

I've created a workflow where I can usually shoot 6 houses a day, stitch and enfuse overnight (programatically), photoshop in the morning, TW and publish by noon. So 6 houses in 1.5 days. I use the rest of the second day to prepare for the next day and charge batteries. My record was 11 houses in one day but 3 of them were walking distance between each other. I could also mention that each scene is a culmination of 6 positions and 9 exposures. (54 pictures) I know I know I should probably shoot in RAW or something but my workflow generally works with ANY lighting condition eliminating the need to fiddle. Just push a button and 3 hours later (on my laptop) or 30 minutes later on my PC I have fully stitched and enfused pano images ready to photoshop and publish with TW5. Once I have the pano images I purge all the originals to save hard drive space. I use foldershare.com to "sync" my laptop to my PC so it is like having a mirror of my projects on 2 computers no matter if I'm in my office network or not. That is a must have if your HD in your laptop pukes. I go through 1 camera a year and when they die I just buy a new one, fix the old one and use it as a backup. Take the previous backup and sell it on EBAY. I've toasted 1 D100, 2 D200s and 1 D300 so far. I know I should take better care of my cameras and or not shoot so many frames but the workflow is king.

I am also having tour with Windows Vista both in previewing and running the tour. Also when I publish a tour it overwrites all files and folder in the published path which is super bad news in my opinion. I use the tour folder to store the image files etc.

I am aware of a window vista update last week that was buggy. try downloading and installing the latest Vista update and hopefully it will take care of your issues.

Good luck

Sorry I meant scene selector (next) It must have been a download image issue as I have looked again and they work fine.

Well if I could achieve your quality using your workflow I'd be happy to stick with it too, quality is excellent.

Thank you for the info on your equipment and workflow etc. I found it very interesting. I'm looking to expand on the quality of equipment I have, and now I have a yardstick to work by, so thank you.
