Expert Lotto 4

Hi all,

I'm not quite sure where to put this request, but I'll try on here and hopefully I will get some replies.

I have a new PC and I'm trying to get Expert Lotto set up on it. I have EL5 working fine, but I'd like to get EL4 working as I would like to use some of the plugins in EL4.

Now my challenge is that I can't seem to get EL4 working the way it did on my old PC. To be specific I can't get EL4 to show the menu option Extra Filters - which had all of Joe's extra plugins. As a result, I can't seem to install many of the plugins I had before.

Can any one please help me out here ?

Also wondering - are there many out there still using EL4 or is everyone now using only EL5? Are Joe's plugins now in EL5 as standard features?

Thanks,
Sliver

I'm still using EL4, I prefer the way it works, not happy with EL5 set up, too complex.

Also I still use Joe's Plug-Ins with EL4

Hi Red Devil,

thanks for your reply. Do you know how I can get my EL4 to show the menu "Extra Plugins" into which I can install some of Joe's plugins? I currently have the Jackpot version 4.5.7 Build 1115. When I start up EL4 it gives a message "There were some errors while loading application plugin(s)" and a number of Joe's plugins which I have in the plugins folder, do not show up in EL4

Any help would very very appreciated.

Thanks,
Sliver

Stan,

Nothing specific, there are so many features and over a period of time I got used to using v4. When I tried v5 it just seemed so different and I didn't have time for the learning curve. Also I found using compound & group filters easier in v4.

Maybe I'll give v5 another try soon.

there's a special page for expert lotto 4.x users in the new manual which translates old names and features into expert lotto 5 features

Hi Stan, RD

I'm currently running Java version 6.0.260, I believe that's the latest version.

Stan - I've emailed you my error log.

Thanks,

thanks for the log. it's just as i suspected - some of joe's plugins were compiled using java 1.6 and your expert lotto 4.x is using java 1.5 for some reason.
try uninstalling java 1.5 from your computer and all 4.x plugins should load fine then.
