actually it seems do not - UseUsernameForAuthentication = true; in config, but all username commands are interpreted as (log): /kick {Username} - really exactly that, instead /kick [d9] (for example)... on my s2 server its working well of course...

Quote from Yisc[NL] :

This works superb for S2-usernames and should now also work with demo-users.

yea

Hi All,
Can someone help me setup the ranking system that shows on servers like (FM) Oval Junkies. It shows in middle of screen saying "You are ranked #148/512. I would like to add it to my servers.

Thanks for an excellent program.

This option is already in Lapper. To be exactly in this line:

PBAction = /msg New PB by {Nickname}^8 ({Car}): {LapTime}|/msg Friendly rank {colon} {Posabs}|/msg Session laps done = {SessLaps}|/msg Total laps done (server) = {Laps}|/msg Average speed {colon} {AvgSpeed} {UnitSpeed}|/rcm Friendly {Car}rank {colon} ^7{Posabs}|/rcm_ply {Username};

This piece puts the message in the middle of the screen: /rcm Friendly {Car}rank {colon} ^7{Posabs}|/rcm_ply {Username};

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, I can see it now on my server, not sure why I am showing as rank 0/0, also it says RankFO8 0/0 which is the car I am driving. Just been back on the (FM) Oval Junkies Server and drivers get warned about newbies. Can someone post the code I need to add it please.

Thanks

Well it doesn't work in your latest download, all we get is 0/0.
It worked fine in the previous version but it doesn't work in version 5.5.4.34595.

Also

SwapSide = *;
AutoGears = No;
Shifter = *;
HelpBrake = No;
AxisClutch = *;
AutoClutch = *;
Mouse = *;
KbNoHelp = No;
KbStabilised = Yes;
CustomView = Yes;
OnNotMatchFlags = /pm Flags not match required flags
|/pm Yours flags -> {PlayerFlags}
|/pm Required flags -> {RequiredFlags}
|/pm Spectated|/spec {Username}
;

that code doesn't work either, no one is spectated with the wrong flags.

It also gets a number of PENR_UNKOWN errors if that helps.

I hope you can sort it out because it's a great program to have running on servers, and I've never had any problems in the past.

Hi Ninja,
They do work but use Y & N instead of Yes & No. Hope that helps.

You are right about that. You have to use Y and N as stated in the help of that section:

#################################################################
# Control Allowed #
#################################################################
# Racer flags
# Y = Yes
# N = No
# * = Yes or No

I also want to make clear that Lapper isn't my program. It's developed bij Gai-Luron so any bugs should be submitted to him. I try to help people as good as I can since I use this program myself and want to do something back to Gai-Luron.

I tried the ranking-system again and everything is working like a charm on this side. Make sure you selected the correct default-car and that PB.txt could be written on the server.

The system for a 'newbie warning' is already included in Lapper but is disabled by default.
See this section in your config file:

#####################################################################
# To Slow user #
#####################################################################
# MaxAllowedTime1 = % Max allowed time to complete a lap relative to MaxLapTime on trackInfo.cfg
# MaxAllowedTime1 = 100 # 100% of MaxLapTime
# MaxAllowedTime1 = 80 # 80% of MaxLapTime
# {Nickname} - Nickname of driver
# {Username} - Username of driver
# {MaxAllowedLapTime1} - Max Allowed Time
# {MaxAllowedLapTime2} - Max Allowed Time
# You can use /pm here
#-------------------------------------------------------------------

#MaxAllowedLapTime1 = 100;
#OnMaxAllowedLapTime1 = /pm you are to slow! Max : {MaxAllowedLapTime1}|/pm kick on {MaxAllowedLapTime2};

#MaxAllowedLapTime2 = 150;
#OnMaxAllowedLapTime2 = /pm You are very slow, spectated!|/msg {Nickname} to slow, spectated|/spec {Username};

Hi Yisc,
The "Too Slow User" doesn't actually do what I am after, I want Lapper to display a message saying " !WARNING! Driver Name is a beginner " so as users connect it checks PB.txt for previous lap records and if None it displays the warning message.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your help guys, my eyes are bad and it's hard to read these days.

I have a little problem. I want to set words which people get kicked for saying.

The word in this instance shall be 'word'

I have done that, but it only happens if they say the word only
(eg. word)

but if they say something like 'you're a stupid word', nothing happens. They don't get kicked.

How can I get around this?

Like what is the 'wild' character?

Hi!
I have just downloaded lapper 5.54 and have no idea how i work, can anybody help me please!
PS! I try to use it in singleplayer

Lapper cannot be used in singleplayer. Lapper has to connect to a LFS-server running on a dedicated machine or on your own computer.

Is nobody going to help me?

What is the wild character to use in the CFG?

for example *

but it isn't *



Thanks.

Thanks.

So far regular expressions can't be used to search for words etc.
It can only by used to search usernames.

Please put this request on your list Gai.
Yesterday I tried to clean my own SPB but this function still doesn't work in 5.54, put is on your list too please.

Quote from WingmanZ :

Hi all! The Lapper is great, but I have some trouble using it! At first I had some problems whit te connection, I red the topic twiece but I didnt understad that I must write /insim 29999... I fixed that but the program didn`t created the PB files... Ok it created them somehow... I have this problem!

This info is in my DriftPB file. When I start to drift no points are showing in the game. When I type !drf this appears:

What should I do?

Sorry for my bad english

Please check if your DriftPB.txt is updated when someone scored points. When that's not happening, there's something wrong with your file-rights (to say it simple, Lapper hasn't got the autority to write in that file). When your file is updated normaly, you have to check your Lapper.cfg to see if something is wrong. If you need help with that last step, please upload your CFG-file so I can check it for you.

Okay, now I know that that's impossible, I wanna know how to do this

!kick {*}&C:\Users\Dedicated Server\Documents\Dedicated Host 4\Lapper\bin\users.txt|/kick {*}

This doesn't work. How can I make it work?

!kick&./users.txt|/kick {*}

Thanks!

also, is it possible to do this

!kick benjie.13 REASON&./users.txt|/kick {*}

The outcome being I get kicked, then a /msg comes up saying Benjie.13 was kicked for REASON ?

Thanks.

!kick&./users.txt|/kick {*}|/msg {Nickname} is kicked for ...
!kick&./users.txt|/kick {*}|/msg {Username} is kicked for ...

If you want to specify the reason, you should make several kick-commandos, like:

!kick_spam&./users.txt|/kick {*}|/msg {Nickname} is kicked for spamming
!kick_swear&./users.txt|/kick {*}|/msg {Nickname} is kicked for swearing
!kick_wreck&./users.txt|/kick {*}|/msg {Nickname} is kicked for wrecking

etc. etc.

Hello,
Is it posible to delete a PB from someone who is cheating?
I put in the trackinfo.cfg file the next line and it works fine

LapTimeAction = /msg Cheating by {Nickname}^8 !:/ban {Nickname} 99

But i want also to delete automaticly the PB from that person in the PB.txt file.Is this posible? or is this for a later release from LFSLapper?

And a speedtrap to check the maxspeed for a imposible speed and do a auto action on it?

Lapper can't do that at the moment. (maybe in a later release)
I almost finished an addon for Lapper (requested by Clio) where you can upload a PB-file, make modifications and then download the edited file. I'll sent you the link in a PM so you can check it out.

Hi All,
Stuck on 2 things at the mo.
1) Want to create a batch file to start 4 servers and LFSLapper for each server.
2) Want to add a line to Connect Messages -
/pm LFSW - PB by {Nickname} in {Car} - {LapTime};

The {LapTime} bit doesn't work

Thanks again guys
