i think that i bit off more than i can chew with this idea. i've only had one class of vb.net and now taking a similar class for C#. never have done something like this. my dad (software consultant) says this would be OOP. anybody know of some good online books about OOP and good examples of OOP?

thank you very much. guess i've got some research to do first.

i would some help pointing me in the right direction for what i would want. first, i've used LFS dedilink before on a server i used to run on my own computer.

now we have a dedicated server from 500servers, and i would like to be able to control it in the same way as the picture above. problem is that we have LFSLapper running, and can't do both at the same time.

how would i go about making a program to do something like LFS dedilink, but only on my side. for instance, it would be passing the parameters through my open LFS game. of course, i would be in the game with the admin password. click a few buttons, and the program would send commands like; /track as1, /laps 10, stuff like that.

where do i need to start to do this? do i need to have it connect to InSim? i have downloaded the InSim/OutSim/OutGuage lib in .NET. thanks for any help that can be provided, and ask if more information is needed.

i'll see if TeazR may be able to make a fxr version or not. but anybody would like to make the other skin? i'm sure it would be somewhat easier than the first one, the flying lizard one.

i would like to request a skin for the fxr made from these pictures:

also maybe this one:

these skins would be good for fzr's as well for anybody who'd want them too. and a big thank you to anybody who can make these skins. i couldn't do it to save my life.

well, thanks for clearing that up for me. i really want to use your program as it is very cool, but i can't drive without pitspotter. although, i bet you'll be able to make one yourself as you indicate, and it may be better. can't wait for updates to see if pitspotter works better. keep up the good job.

i'm having problems with the relay to pitspotter. everytime i join a multiplayer game, or the race restarts, i get the errors listed in this jpg. plus pitspotter shows the error to the right of the jpg that it basically has disconnected. anything i need to know to fix this?
