Quote from tomylee :I used it with V5 and I got a fine output but also the error messages.

Works fine for me too with V5.

Quote from Scawen :-Willi- : this is with FOV of 120 I guess?

Yes I have noticed the trees popping up at BL, when I use a lod that seems fine for cars, there is too much tree popup and I've made a note to check if that should be balanced a bit. I think they have a needlessly low draw distance and I can increase that to an acceptable value.

Is it only trees? Or do you have something else popping up as well, that didn't pop up before?

Scawen, I have noticed pop-ups since V5. Not sure if it is related to the changes in the test patches or my PC as I have had pop-ups previously but not this bad.
Seen them at South City, light poles, tress and some signs. Also at Westhill but was just one thing the white lines on the road near pit entry/exit.

Quote from Scawen :The LFS Stats programmer will need to update LFS Stats to respond to the new packets.

Does this actually stop stats from working or is it just dropping the packets it doesn't recognize (ie the new ones)?

Hello Monk,
I have tried to use your jinsimgateway to run multiple insim apps on a client (not server), I have the same issue as previously stated that some of the apps I want to use can not have their insim port set manually, you mentioned that you can set a different port by entering the following code java -jar jInSimGateway.jar -gw=65000
But I have no experience with java and have no idea where or how I should enter this command line, I tried it in the cmd prompt of windows but it didn't work.
Please Help as I really want to get more than 1 insim program running at once.
Can multiple insims work together when running LFS as a client only?

I have also tried RM but can not get it to work either, python is not user friendly imo, compared to this one, so i have dropped RM for now.

BTW I have been trying to run multiple insim programs (Pitspotter, Lapper & Automessage) and I can't get them to work together, only 1 insim app will work at one time.
I have set 3 relays in LFSC, one for each app using separate ports I have set for each. LFSC sees them o.k as the corresponding port appears in LFSC once everything is started but they don't work together.
Same goes for 2 or more outgauge apps but I can get around this by using the outgauge gateway and setting up 1 LFSC relay to this gateway.
Has anyone been successful in getting more than 1 insim&/or outgauge app working using LFSC
If so how?
BTW I am trying to this by running LFS as a client only, not server, so is it possible to get multiple insims work together when running LFS as a client only?

Quote from chrisfromda909 :I have dragged and dropped LFS.EXE into LFS-COMPANION.EXE but it says: "Memory acces violation". Any ideas whats wrong?

Well I have got it to work on ver V, did you drag and drop LFS.exe into the LFSC GUI window, if I remember correctly that is what you are meant to do & what I did to get it to work (see below).

Setup Guide

* Extract zip to a new folder, retaining the directory structure
* Launch LFS-Companion
* Drag LFS.exe into LFS-Companion window
* Click Launch LFS
* Use number pad "0" and "." to config volume and number pad numbers to configure radio messages (Numlock must be on)

I think others have had the same problem as you have you read through the thread I posted above?

Quote from chrisfromda909 :Thank you, I didnt realize that it was compatible with V patch. I had tried to use that link earlier but the website says:

The page cannot be found

The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

If you could attach the file so I can download it I would appreciate it.


I was hoping to be able to download it, a lot of links in the addon database thread are dead.

Yep as Highsider9 has provided below

Quote from chrisfromda909 :Ive been searching for the past 20 minutes and cant find it. Can someone help me out? Also looking for Slickmod. I had downloaded it last week, but I did a system restore today and the exe files were erased. Can someone link me to these 2 mods? Like I said, Ive been searching for a while.

Hi chrisfromda909, Never heard of that version of LFSC only know of this version http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=12484, it works fine for me with LFS S2 V, hope that is what you are looking for.

Not sure about SlickMod though as I don't use it.

First off, I am sorry Becky that you will no longer be developing this. I have only just discovered it and think it is great and shows lots of potential to become an awesome add-on.
I do have a question that I am hoping someone can answer.
Can someone tell me whether the relays actually work for more than one insim or outgauge program at a time? If so how?
I have tried to run 2 insim programs (Pitspotter & LFS Stats) and I can't get them to work together, only 1 insim app will work at one time.
I have set 2 relays in LFSC, one for each app using the ports specified for each. LFSC sees them o.k as the corresponding port appears in LFSC once everything is started but they don't work together.
Same goes for 2 or more outgauge apps but I can get around this by using the outgauge gateway and setting up 1 LFSC relay to this gateway.
Any Ideas?

O.K. Now that I can do all my league stats online live, it has now got me thinking how I can have the stats.xml file parameters changed automatically after the end of a race and before the start of the next race.
Has anyone got any idea on how to do such?
Can this be achieved via a script / xml enhancement to the original file?
If so how?

The ultimate aim is that each sessions stats are captured using different file names which change automatically triggered from the race finished flag, negating the need for me to change them manually between sessions, leaving me to concentrate on racing.

Any Ideas?

Quote from germanpio :1/2. Yes, whether you are racing or just spectating. I use it myself and I didn't change anything for it.


3.It is done in real time and because of it much more accurate than playing a replay in 2x,4x or 8x


4. (personal opinion) I never experienced any problems causing by the tool. Lags and so on were only caused by the server itself.

Thanks gemanpio, I tested in last night with no problems, works great both single player and online.
I now won't have to save replays and watch them back later to create the stats, can just do it on the fly

Hi Smith,
Apologies if the following questions seem a bit noob'ish, but I have limited knowledge of insim & xml programming. So my questions are:

1. Does stats work while racing live online?
- The scenario is I join the league server from my client with stats running while I race.
I have no access to the host server.

2a. If so what parameters need to be changed in the stats.xml file?
I think the following lines would need to be changed to align with the host server etc.
<StatsConfig>
<ConnectionMethod>server</ConnectionMethod> <!-- server | relay -->
<ServerAdminPassword></ServerAdminPassword>
<ListenPort>64999</ListenPort>
<ServerConfig> <!-- direct server connection -->
<ServerIPAddress>127.0.0.1</ServerIPAddress> <!-- LFS Server address -->
<ServerPort>65000</ServerPort> <!-- LFS Server port -->
</ServerConfig>


2b. Do I have to change anything within the lines of the relay config settings?

3. If stats is run live how accurate are they compared to saving the mpr and doing them later via a replay?

4. Assuming it can be done, can stats cause problems while racing like lag or stutters?

Thanks in advance for your advice.
