killforfood Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Nope, the link is live. Try it again, I used E, Firefox and Chrome, all three worked even from work.I feel no love using Windows Internet Explorer at home or work. What settings should I likely change to feel the love
dagabu Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 LOL! I refer to Explorer as Evil-E, we only have it on our computers so that we can do updates automatically.
killforfood Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 My IT guy can't even get it to load He suggested I switch my home computer to Firefox.
ausgoty Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 My IT guy can't even get it to load He suggested I switch my home computer to Firefox. May be a silly sugestion but as the program is flash based, have you installed Adobe Flash and verified it is working?
killforfood Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 May be a silly sugestion but as the program is flash based, have you installed Adobe Flash and verified it is working?Well there's your problem lady Yep, that was it ausgoty. I dwnloaded the latest version and now were cooking with gas. or would that be BP?
ausgoty Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 Well there's your problem lady Yep, that was it ausgoty. I dwnloaded the latest version and now were cooking with gas. or would that be BP? Ah, glad I could help Cooking with BP for sure!!!!
killforfood Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 I'm still feeling no love from "Evil E" While I am able to run Rocket Tool Sketcher online, I spoke a little soon when I said that I downloaded it. Yesterday I attempted to download the application to my PC and was DENIED because "EVIL E" said the digital signature was not valid. No choices, no would I still like to download it. Just flat DENIED!!! Today I tried again and now I'm DENIED because my lovely operating system claims that the application is not a valid Win32 application. Never mind that it's happily running in the background. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/killforfood/Pyro/DENIED.jpgI suppose that I should be thankful that my PC protects me from all things harmful.I'm fighting it though, yesterday I went to the drive through and ordered fries with my meal! Ha! Take that Bill Gates. Your evil genius can't stop that! On a brighter note, Rocket Tool Sketcher is such a well thought out application. Every thing is so intuitive. In minutes I was designing tooling like a pro. The automatic recalculation of all dimensions and automatic re-proportion of the drawings is sooo cool! Thanks Pudi
dagabu Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Pudi, Just install Firefox or Chrome. It works well on both.
Peret Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 You cannot download the Rocket Tool Sketcher! It isn't an application (.EXE file), it's a web page with Flash and Java. The calculation and drawing is created on your computer, not on the web host, but the "program" is running as a graphics script in your local web browser and can't stand alone without it. Use the program online, then download the .JPG file that it offers you to save as a finished drawing. Note: if you really, really want to download the program, just go to "view" (or whatever the tab is in IE) and select "view page source". You will see the actual Javascript and Flash commands (in words, not nice graphics), and you can save the whole page if you want to as an .htm or .html file. It is just barely possible that if you open the resulting file using your web browser, it will run locally.
killforfood Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hey Peret, It worked!!! Very Cool I'm about half computer illiterate so when something actually works, I get stoked. Thanks.
killforfood Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Just a quick update, while I was able to download the source code and run the sketcher locally, there is some functionality that will be lost. The help file and other keys across the top are no longer functional. Also I am no longer able to save the image. Other than that, all of the drawing tools work perfectly.
HeA Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Thank you, I've been sarching for this program for a month!(Lost the link when my HD crashed.)
pudidotdk Posted November 1, 2016 Author Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Here is the new link to the web integrated flash and the downloadable .exe -->> http://ma.dk/rts -->> http://ma.dk/rts/rockettoolsketcher.exe The old link (flashnet.dk) will probably remain down for the time being!Sorry for the inconvenience. - Nic Edited November 1, 2016 by pudidotdk
Mumbles Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Many thanks Pudi. I updated the links into the first post as well for anyone who comes looking.
BlueComet24 Posted November 2, 2016 Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) My PC reeaally doesn't like that file. Windows Defender freaks out and immediately tries to delete it, saying it's a virus. Virustotal.com says it's probably fine, though. Is there any way you can verify that it's safe and make it so that it doesn't get detected as malware?It says it's "Trojan: Win32/Maltule.B!cl", which doesn't sound particularly inviting. It's probably a just false positive, but there might be some possibility the download link got hacked or something. The in-browser version works really well! It's very easy and intuitive to use and will surely save me hours of designing and sketching tooling. Nice work. Edited November 2, 2016 by BlueComet24
pudidotdk Posted November 3, 2016 Author Posted November 3, 2016 What abouthttp://ma.dk/rts/rockettoolsketcher.zipIt's a long shot, but it should make it easier for some people to at least download it (and it's only 3.7 MB when .zip'd)
BlueComet24 Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 That works without raising any flags. Thank you.
PyroPadawan Posted March 1, 2021 Posted March 1, 2021 Hey Pud, just curious, does your website have project files? if so, are you going to fix the website due to Adobe killing off flash?
