I'm done with the colours headache, maybe it isn't the best variant, but at least background colour is white

Oliv76000, 1.42,43,44 works fine with this replay, I don't see where the problem is. weird thing is that your above example of qual stats contains trails of manual editing.

Pinto_PT, here is what you need. Try to learn basics of html btw, it is not that hard and might be useful some day

I need replay to reproduce this, can you upload it somewhere?

Both requests are done, they were easier than I expected.

Now I'm considering a different colour scheme for tables since ingamenicks can be coloured white, and they are kinda invisible on white background. But one thing is that I don't really want to change the background colour of the whole page, white rocks.
So, I'd like to hear colour schemes advices from people that have a clue in ergonomics (I'm not).

A simple answer: yes. (everything is possible )

Is it critical for them to be shown in colour?

I had some free time this weekend and took it to modify the program to support qualifications.

Another interesting feature I added is ability to compare racers perfomance to hlvc wr's data.

There might be terrible bugs though, so test it with caution

Quick thoughts on the subject.

if I am not mistaken, mono doesn't fully support Windows.Forms classes yet, and they are used to draw the charts. While there should be a way to surpass the absence of X on your server, I'm afraid lack of classes support is fatal.

Also I'm not sure if mono is capable of understanding the .Net 2 framework requiring code.

I can share the graph sources to fiddle with the problem, if anyone wants to.

I beg your pardon, it was yet another stupid mistake.

dodo.ger, the problem should be gone now.

Oliv76000, I can't say anything particular atm, but it looks like a thing that is unlikely going to be implemented, sorry.

dodo.ger, post tsv files of these replays pls, I am very limited on traffic.

I'm afraid there is little to nothing I can do in current circumstances, since two year old backbone wasn't developed with player swapping in mind.

So, I guess nothing is going to change until I find the interest to rewrite it from scratch or someone else does this job in his project.

There was a problem with racers who done one or no laps, but it should be gone now. Try if a fixed version works...

dodo.ger & Renku, attach the tsv file of the replay causing trouble, please.
There is a possibility that something might be borked in new graphs code, although it works with my test data.

And one more thing, since graph is complied with msvs 2005 from now on, ms.net framework v2 is required, otherwise the program just crashes.

magicius, what are the last lines program writes before exiting?

Sure it works in realtime.
If you're getting this kind of error messages, remove the password which is obviously defined in multiplayer/start new game dialogue.

Q: I start lfs stats [...] it calculate lap times,chat,etc... but when race ends
program shuts and it wont write to results!
A: Most probably you are trying to make stats of single player or demo replay.
These replays are not processed by default. To counter that, set SprDemoCheck key
in configuration file to false.

Quote from HS-78 :Hi smith ... nice,very nice! Thanks so far ... but 3 little things I have to mention:

- why does it say LFS stats! v1.40 at the top of the result sheet - isn't it still 1.39?

- can all lap charts be limited to the same bounds/ min/max laptime? so that they can be compared better? the min time to all could be the fastest lap time of the race, and the max time the slowest lap time ... understandable?

- could the average lap time of the specific player can be displayed as a line in the lap chart, so that in every chart is some kind of personal benchmark to see?

Just my thoughts so far after a quick test, will look into it further.

Don't pay attention to version differencies, it is nothing more than typos.

I like your suggestion about alignning all graph's bounds, I'll check and see how does it look in work.

Average time line is already drawn on every graph, I only made it look less noticeble. Also, green bars are times below average, red ones - slower, and dark red bars are much more slower and have been cutted to prevent ruining graph detalisation.

update: 2nd suggestion implemented, looks good. did some other tiny changes as well.

HS-78, I've done almost everything I could, check first post.

HS-78, I think I'll figure something out. Not promising it very soon, you know, somehow I've got some other rl stuff to do

Quote from HS-78 :Maybe a line chart without the times written in the chart for each lap would be better?
... but maybe it wasnt a good idea at all if I think for the up to 20 single charts if the server was full ... allthough I would like it

Line chart looks more hectic in my opinion. To make histogram more readable I can draw laptime text inside bars, with text line rotated 90 degrees counter clockwise.

Quote from germanpio :
Would be great to turn that on or off in the options file.

If this improvement is going to reach the public version, all you shall need to turn it on or off is just modify a template file.

Quote from germanpio :
But what does the "e+05" mean?
btw: The blue line is the average time, right? I hope that the start lap isn't calculated in it, then this graph would be great.

You guessed right, blue line stands for an average time. First lap is not got
rid of in this example, also don't pay mention the ordinate axis label values, it is going to be replaced with human readable data, thats not the problem

Quote from Becky Rose :
The next LFSC already has this (example from last OWRL race) if you really want the feature.

Nice stuff, Becky Rose. It looks like that everyone who wants to be on the bleeding edge of statistics stuff should follow your path.

Here's some examples of what can be done.
I don't really know if this kind of graphs is going to be any useful. The picture becomes quite messy with lenghty races, and the case of long pit stops reduces comparision detail of other laps...

Great, no more explanation is needed, I think it's quite clear now without my help

Note that graph program is opensource, so you can study its internals for all the gory details by yourself.

Not planned.
I think it has already been discussed earlier.

Yes, look for SprDemoCheck key in configuration file. Quite obviously, isnt it.

One notice, the results you get from these kinds of replay files might be buggy.

germanpio, quickfix for current version is enabling displayingamemessages in config. yes, its weird

regarding automatical moving, uploading and similar things - I'm not really a fan of incorporating these features into the program, as it can be easily done with a simple program on any scripting language, like perl. unix way ftw

germanpio, looks like I can't repeat this error.
I need that replay and a set of your template files to be able to do anything.

I have another suggestion, It would be more convinient to make a separate config file for each league and launch stats with config name as command line parameter

Quote from donzeze :You said that somewere page 8 becouse i asked you how i could manage to write splits time this way :
[.....]

I'm afraid my comment has been related to inserting track name into csv file, and it became possible in latest version indeed.
I never promised anything about splits.
