So I had been using Rags 2.4.16 and it was working fine but then I upgraded to the supposedly stable 2.5.2 version.

Every game is now either unreadable or gives me a padding error.

I’ve redone all the framework files a few times and even did a complete uninstall of all rags software and rolled back to 2.4.16. Nothing has worked.

here’s a text copy of the error —

article explains how to enable it.

NOTE:
The v2.14.x series of RAGS also requires the following to be installed/enabled:

a. Microsoft SQL Server v3.5 Compact.
As you are running a 64-bit version of Windows you will need to install the 32-bit release before the 64 bit release.

b. Microsoft Media Player.

I am using Windows 8.1 so the only way for me to use RAGS player is your portable non-installation version. It plays my rag files. Installation versions (RAGSsetup.exe like) installed, but did not work at all on win8.1.

But I have an issue: absolutely no pictures viewing (only empty space where pics should be). Does anyone have any idea how and why?

I most definitely have all .net installed for gaming purposes, so I have no idea why such thing happens.
I tried it on two games (Goldrush and Sinner). I played the same rag files on my other laptop with Win7 and both were fine last time I checked.

SOLVED (after 1/2 year): It turns up I had my standard Windows Media Player disabled. Although I do remember following this step before, now it worked! The portable version did not work correctly (pics not shown) because of this also.
In Control Panel -> Programs (add or remove) -> Turn System Feature on and off > Media Features (or Multimedia) > Windows Media Player (turn this ON). Wait.

2. Close the startup window.
3. Save an empty game like «debug.rag», we need this for the debug tool to start
4. Go to Tools-> Debug Current Game

5. Use your previously saved «debug.rag» to start the «debugging». Dismiss all upcoming pop-ups (either close or continue)
6. Close the designer.
7. Goto Rags Player, you should now have a debug window.

8. Now you can load any Game you want using File -> Open a New Game
9. Close the empty DebugDataFrm

10. Now you are able to use the Debug window to check and mess around with variables, just click the one you want to change and enter the new value.

Here’s a nice quick way to do this.
1. -Open up a new text document with notepad

2. Type or copy and paste the line below into the document (make sure the address in the parenthesis points to your rags.exe files)
«C:\Program Files (x86)\RagsGame\Rags Suite\Rags.exe» %1 DEBUG

3. Save the document as rags.bat or ragsdebug.bat or ragscheat.bat
*It is very important that you save the file as a .bat*

4. Whenever you decide you need to cheat, just drag the rags game into the .bat file.
It can be minimized so it’s not in front of the game.
What you’re looking for is usually in the variables tab.
You can also change the «custom properties» tab but be careful as that can screw the game up.

I’m sorry for this, as I cannot seem to get it to work.

I have tried both suggestions, and neither bring up the Debug window at all. I’ve went step by step and nothing seems to work. Anymore help?

I had the same issue, running on Win 10. After digging through dnSpy debugger while rags designer was trying to start up, I figured out that an XML file got messed up and was preventing it from opening correctly.

I ended up going to C:\Users\[Your User Name Here]\AppData\Roaming\Rags\RagsConfig.xml and adding the following text into the file (my file was initially empty, so if it has text in it, delete the text first):

Now try to open Rags Designer. You should be prompted for some initial settings and then designer should load.

Well I found a fix and got 2.4.0 running. Uninstall all versions of Rags (newer one prevents older ones from installing)
Went into Appdata Local and deleted rags files then installed 2.4 and the ragsdesigner worked.

I have 3 versions of rag designer now working, I also used dnspy to edit 3.1

All works, so the solution seems to be going into users/name/appdata/local and delete rags, they do not uninstall with the normal uninstall procedure.

I heard that Rags moved from WMP to Windows Powerpoint Presentation or something ha, in it’s WPF version than the classic one. Does anyone know if he also moved out the way the data is stored, different database or something since the debug console in classic suite shows the variables stored in arrays while the WPF ragsplayer debug console shows them as array and there’s no way to edit those variables.

And I couldn’t find a way to get the save files from WPF to work in classic idk if the ones made in classic work in WPF or not.

While both of these methods do seem to successfully get me into debug mode (as well as using DebugRags.exe found elsewhere), they all present the same problem. When I try to load an existing save game I get a Save File Mismatch error and, regardless of whether I select «yes» or «no» it puts the game, No Haven in this case, in a state where all people and assignments lose their names temporarily (e.g. Assign 11, Slaver 1), but also, more importantly, a lot of interactions disappear and never seem to come back (like most of the Talk To options). I don’t see anyone else mentioning this problem. Does anyone have any ideas why it is happening? Thank you.

Edit: It appears it was a combination of two factors. 1) RAGS is RAGS: RAGS is sensitive about the path to the .rag file when loading a save and seems to go into this damn state 2) My own error: I use sandboxing and didn’t realize I was using a different path to the .rag file when doing the debug method.

You can register RAGS again!

I have released a new version of RAGS classic…version 2.6.0 which you can download and use to register your copy of RAGS again.

Once you have registered with this version, you can use your legacy copies of RAGS as well.

Enjoy RAGS and let me know if you have any issues with the new system.

Hello, I am trying to register my subscription and RAG say he is unable to connect to server, what can I do?

I also have an error message appearing when I open RAG.

“could not load file or assembly ‘System.Data.SqlServerCe.
Version=3.5.1.0. Culture=neutral.
PublicKeyToke=89845dcd8080cc91’ or one of its dependencies. The located assembly’s manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040).”

I would download the registerable version 2.6 from the downloads and try registering with that.

Let me know if you still have problems

I installed 2.6 and still have the same problem as Lillandril described.

The issue should be resolvable once you install sql server ce 3.5 sp2.
You should be able to find that here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5783
please install that and let me know if you have any further problems.

It solved the problem, thanks.

Hello? Any chances for help?

What sort of help would you need?

im also haveing the System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: ‘System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeConnection Rags.Game.GetDBConnection()’. problem

What version are you using? I suspect you may need to install sqlserver ce from this link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5783
that may take care of it.

I described it about month ago, yet apparently my previous post “awaits moderation” indefinitely or just was deleted. I have the same problem as Slyspeaker; Rags Designer works well but starting game in debug mode or RagsPlayer gives me System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: ‘System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeConnection Rags.Game.GetDBConnection()’.

Hi Mouse…thanks for your comment. I’m sorry you’re having trouble. Can you verify your version of the rags player that starts when debugging or playing the games? I will try to sort it out for you.

I’m trying to use 2.6 version of Rags. As previously mentioned installing sql server ce 3.5 sp2 solved my problem with the Designer, but not Player.

Got it fixed…download 2.6.1 and it should resolve the issue.

so once youve registered the 2.6 you can reregister 3.1? ill more than likely be needing to soon, but dont want to lose the ability to dev in it

Yes, any version will work once you’ve successfully registered.

I purchased a subscription a few weeks ago but have not yet received my key… would you be able to help?

charlie, I will look into it. The registration keys are automatically sent to the paypal registered email address. If your email address has changed, it may not have made it to your current email address.

If you are Charlie R. it looks like we took care of this issue already. Send me an email if you still don’t have the key.

That’s me! I tried sending an email to support@ragsgame.com this morning, but it bounced back with a “recipient not found” error. I double checked my inbox and spam folder and I cannot yet find any key information. Thank you for looking into this for me!

I sent your key to you again. Let me know if you have any more issues.

I am getting a Padding is invalid and cannot be removed error

Installed MS sql server ce 3.5 sp2 32-bit and 64-bit onto my Windows 7 machine, per your recommendation above… then installed the RAGS 2.6.0

I can start up the RAGS.exe ok, but as soon as I actually try to open a .rag file, I get an error saying “Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Dara.SqlServerCe. Version=4.0.0.0… or one of its dependencies. The located assembly’s manifest definition does not match the assembly reference.”

Oh wow…I’m sorry, it looks like the system is now after version 4.0 of sql server ce.
You can get that version here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17876
Hope that helps!

Still having trouble with this one. Have both 3.5 and 4 installed. I can open my games in the editor just fine but it fails when I try to open anything in the player. I’m getting this error when I do so.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Wow…that’s strange since the designer and player both use that SQL server ce….If it worked for one, I’d assume it worked for both. Have you tried version 3 as well as the 2.5? Same results each time?
