Razzone, if you set LogIngameMessages keyword to true in configuration file, file with all replay messages will be created along with main results.
All you need is just some grepping on this file to get desired information.

I'd like to see the replay if it's possible.

EDIT:
thanks for replay, I'll try to fix the problem on weekend.

This is because of I (and I thought, lfs too), count a finished player with uncompleted penalty as disqualified.
What penalty flag he's got in lfs finish table of that replay?

DuVeL, you figured everything right, relay server is what you have to use with multiple insim programs.
The thing is, stats currently doesn't always work as supposed to in relay mode, and I haven't traced why yet (frankly speaking, there are more exciting things around than that )
So, I'm afraid, mpr is the only way atm. To speed up things and eliminate mpr stage, you might want to ask one of the participator to run stats during race connected to his local game.

tristancliffe, the features you are talking of, they all are about a decent championship site! And in my opinion it's much easier to implement than extending current program's source to behave in the same way
scripting language+sql database+apache wins!

It changes nothing for you if you are not getting these weird sockets errors.

Quote from paXton :

2 weeks ago i tried to get stats v1.32 working on our linux server to do live-stats.
and i wondered, it worked.
but after updating to v1.33 it won't work.

The root of the problem might be my update of compiler to msvc 2005, as nothing in the sockets code's been changed...
Well, since now I'm avoiding halting on any sockets error less than WSABASEERR, so can you try if this one really works?

Freddy_P, I guess you solved the problem?

I cut off demo replays, the reasons are somewhere above, and spr replays are detected as demo replays by the checker, so they are not supported too.

Quote from tristancliffe :

I must confess I haven't tried, but afaik this doesn't work with qually right?

How hard would it be to detect if it was a qually session, and then only log the data needed (say number of laps, best time, best possible time and stuff like that)?

That was an entire race weekend could be seen in easy to view webpages.

I'm not sure it really neccessary, but I'll try to think about it.

Quote from tristancliffe :

On another note, I always use notepads "replace all" feature to change " | " to "<br>" (no quotes) so it looks neater.

Change template file and save yourself from manual work.

GerG, you are absolutely right

I can make a build without demo check especially for you, if you want
It should work in case of simple and straightforward race.

Well, the reason is that I track players pit-out and rejoin events (and something else probably) using lfsworld username, and since demo reps have its value blanked, things are going uberhaywire in some cases.

Besides that, who needs a demo in these days anyway?

Sorry, I wasn't too attentive. Fixed.

Scawen, CrazyICE - recently I discovered it was my screening error, I beg your pardon.

It only happened on more than two split tracks, where by some weird chance I briefly tested spr's.

One thing I'm curious though - am I wrong or lfsworld player name is not stored in single player race replays?

Updates again, relay server related mainly.

CrazyICE, show me a multiplayer replay with this problem, as I haven't witnessed it lately...

Regarding single player (race) replays, all SPX packets I receive for every player are equal to the very first SP1 value, iirc.
I never dig the problem though, as there is no much sense in analysing of spr's.

D34N0, quick googling reveals many people with win9x encountering this error. I'll try to find more information and fix it, but you really should upgrade to something newer
edit: looks like this problem is specific to win98se only... win98 and winme should work.

CrazyICE, this happens on single player & hotlap replays only, and they are not supported. What replay did you use?

Both programs are modified, first post updated.

NB: Note that relay support is more a testing one in current conditions, rather that guaranted working solution.

Edit: Relay mode connection should be fine after latest update.

The problem was silly. Stupid bug in finishers detection loop was making incorrect decision that everyone is finished, while that wasn't true.

CrazyICE, kalle, and everyone getting tons of unexplained DNF's: use this as temporary solution: http://lfsclub.mediagate.ru/temp/stats.exe

tristancliffe, good suggestion, but I don't feel like implementing it, my point is that I want to have exactl replica of lfs ingame finish table without any improvements.

Rejoining player could be the reason, but I thought I fixed that already... Anyway, I'll check the replay later.

Quote from CrazyICE :

Hi,
your tool works well, till yesterday.

i did stats for my ufr race but the result wasn't correct.
me (Octrin.cr4zy!C3) was 3rd and so on...
from position 2 down to the last one all have been signed as DNF, but thats wrong! and also everyone did at least one pitstop! and everyone to position 10 was i the same lap (therefore did 23 laps!)

Are you sure this replay has recorded finish of every one player? Judging by your description, we have a situation where replay recording was stopped prematurely, and that's a FAQ situation

germanpio, it's fixed, check first post for update.

It's interesting that this problem didn't arise very noticeable on tracks with less than four splits

Quote from Pinto_PT :

The result is obvous the same, the problem is not solved, the player is last on race stats output.

I think I got it finally, test it please: http://lfsclub.mediagate.ru/temp/statstest2.exe
At least it gives correct position to time-penalised player with my test replay.

Quote from germanpio :

some of the lines are going backwards or are twice displayed (between lap 9 and 10, position 5 and 6) is it possible to solve this problem?

Send me (piercemind#gmail.com) tsv files generated from this replay, I'll check what's wrong.

No, it's my prob, and it will be solved.

try how this one works: http://lfsclub.mediagate.ru/temp/statstest.exe

P.S. sorry, don't have any appropriate replays to test it by myself, and cant be arsed to download your replay with my slow internets

Pinto_PT, can you try to remake stats with this (censored) and inform me if anything changed?
