Current Stable: Ornery Orc {110114-00}

Installing Traipse is easy with the various files you can download. Let me save you a headache and ensure you get the correct file so you can have an easier life.

While Tech Support continues, Ornery Orc is not longer under development.

System Requirements

 

Installing Python, wxPython

The installation process is fairly straight forward.

  • Download the Python install file for the correct architecture of your operating system, 32bit or 64bit.
  • Download the wxPython install file for the correct architcture of your operating system, 32bit or 64bit.
  • Install Python. If you have a previous version the installer will cleanly update or remove it for you.
  • Restart your PC.
  • Install wxPython

And you are done. You can now install Traipse.

 

Installing Traipse

  • Ensure you have installed the system requirements and you have downloaded the latest Traipse Setup Utility ZIP package.
  • Extract the source code from the ZIP package and run the setup.py file.
  • A window will pop-up and Traipse will begin downloading the source code from the Assembla page.
  • Once the download has completed you can close the window and start Traipse.

Traipse places the Core of the source inside a folder called System. This design aspect is for users who want to tinker with the code. That user can re-run setup.py if they break their code too far and not lose any changes but still get new source in a new System folder.

To run Traipse use the Traipse.pyw file.

Windows 7 Users

If you are running Windows 7, please follow these patch steps after running the Setup Utility

  • Download the following patched file: miniatures_handler.py (Right-click and choose Save As..)
  • Place it in your Traipse Installation folder: System/orpg/mapper/
  • Yes, replace the old file.

 

Linux Users

Thanks to supporters a new one click method of installation has been created for Linux users. The two ZIP files provided contain a binary file that installs Traipse and places it's startup files inside your 'Games' section of your menu. To install the files you will need to extract the binary from the ZIP file, and then give it execute permissions. Double click the binary file afterwards and choose your install location.
