try reducing your max guest down to 2 when you set up your host and see if that helps

thanks

its from the hotlap analyser page it seems to be all s04 laps for all types of cars

there seems to be a problem with all the s04 spr files
http://www.lfsworld.net/get_sp ... arrowkart4_SO4_XFG_203540
i get the following error:-
The SPR file 'arrowkart4_SO4_XFG_203540' was not found on the server.

just a thought but why not try CCProxy i believe it might do what you want and 'CCProxy trial version can only support 3 users' ie free
i have never used so can't help more

hi i know this is old data but there is an error in my data
my pb at blackwood gp is pickup a time from kyoto ring
Racer:- LARK2355
21:46 3 sep 2010 best time 57.73
if you look at details it says Kyoto Ring Blackwood gp
looks like a database error mine and any others can be picked up by checking track vs layout
not a big issue but thought i was worth mentioning.

keep up the good work-installed and working

i dont know if this is useful to anyone but i got fed up programming an array for track names etc so i have created an xml file for it

that works put in LTC as label and [LTC]+Live+To+Cruise as server and then click on the 'ltc' label and the server will show
see image live to.png for display
live2 for entry in options

ne way to find the server name is :-
go to lfs desktop
click on:-racers and hosts on line
find the host you want to monitor
look across for the info button, click on it
now look at the address on the top of your browser ie
http://www.lfsworld.net/pubsta ... t=%21bolhoeve+racing+demo
and copy the part after the equals sign into the gadget options column where the [WCL]+Rallycross+Demo example is showing
ie:-'
'%21bolhoeve+racing+demo' to monitor the 'bolhoeve racing demo' server
or
'%5BAA%5D+Blackwood+FBM' to monitor the '[AA] Blackwood FBM' server
put a short desription to the left
close the options box then to display the server click on the short description and the server box will open

see post of 26th november
to change server /display server
a) make sure the tick box next to watch server is ticked
b) click on the text 'WATCH SERVER(S)' to enter the servers names

to select server you need to know the server name as it is held in lfs ie with the ^1 ^2 etc for the colours and a + for a space as it is in the lfs remote etc if you are not sure look at the address bar on your browser when you clik on lfs destop display of info or lfsremote .
ps if you click on the SERVER' label at the top it will take you to lfsremote


i have added a default of the wcl demo server as the first server to watch so you can see hw that is done but you can overwright
there are 2 boxs the first is a descriptive label that then appears in the gadget the second box is the server name , up to 4 servers can be set up.
thre is a 5th option when the gadget is show of '_' which will minimise the information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
the world records tick box has no options .if it is ticked then if there are any new wr in lfs they will display a entry if not nothing will show until there are some
-------------------------------------------------------------------
track racer will allow you to see the online status of up to 4 users if they are offline it will say that they are off line if on line it will tell you the server and you can click on it and it will show the server summary
------------------------------------------------------------------
the show track has plenty of option
no of racers
track
layout
direction
this option is useful if lets say you like to race on ovals when there are at least 4 people
you would select min racers=4
track= kyoto ring
layout= 0
direction =standard

-------------------------------------------------------------------
once you have selected you settings click ok and it will return you to the main display
this will change size dependng on options selected (ticked) and information to display.
if only the server info is displayed check you have entered your idk in correctly as this does not require an idk

hope this helps

see original post
unzip file into:-
c:\program files (x86)\windows sidebar\Gadgets directory
if you are using windows 7 in 32 bit mode
or
c:\program files\windows sidebar\Gadgets directory
if you are using windows 7 in 64 bit mode

then it should appear with the other gadgets ( with the right click gadgets option)
if not try the other directory
dont forget you will need to get an idk ,
which can be setup in the lfs desktop.(ses my lfsw settings then pustat access)

hi yes the 2nd option you can see all host that meet you selection ie you couldd list all hosts that are on the ky oval track with at least 5 racers online in a forward direction.
where as the 3rd option is usefull to constanly watch a server a set server ie wcl demo
*note the updated version 25th november is better as you can do both. and you can let it do nothing in background and then go into option when you want to monitor lfs.Also the options are all set in the settings/options spanner of the gadget rather than hard coded.

hi
when i say settings i pehaps should have said options. click the spanner that appears on the windows tool bar ar you hover over the ggadget.

use tick box to show
world records
or/and
track racer
or/and
show track
or/and
watch server(s)
and your idk (needed for all data except server display)

to change the options for the above click on the text and a window will show allowing you to change what is show for the corespending option ie
ie
track racer will allow you to enter racer 1-4
show track will ask you wat track/no of racers direction etc
watch server will ask for a label(tittle) and the server name dont forget to use full encoding ie [WCL]+Rallycross+Demo if you are not sure on how a server is encoded you can see its format when lfsremote is used in the http address.
(you could use the show track to find it and click on the 'i' )
the display show every section with a 6 second delay as the status info is allowed only every 5 seconds from lfs server unless you pay for priority stats
and the whole data is refreshed every 10 minuites.
if any one wants it different or has a need for and pays for priority access then let me know and i will try to satisfy.

here is an updated version
all above in one gadget
customisable using settings
bug fixed incorrect wr times shown
up to 4 servers to monitor
up to 4 users to monitor
larger/small option added

bug :- i noticed that in the morning you need to go into settings to display correctly. i will fix with any other request when i get a chance..sorry

here i have amended the 's ' and reposted

works for me.

hi you are missing an s off the servers name in the line
if (ss=='r2'){src="http://www.lfsworld.net/hostst ... DriftBeast&"+new Date() ;getit(src);}
should be
if (ss=='r2'){src="http://www.lfsworld.net/hostst ... riftBeasts&"+new Date() ;getit(src);}

hi yes you are quite right windows fails to clear its buffer sometimes.so i have added a date to end of request to make it unique and therefore reload.
gadget size is the width in the body of the style file ie:- width: 304px;
max width of a gadget is 350px
i have increased to 304px and amended as above in zip below

dont know about rainmaker but if you want to drop formated hostdata into it and cant use php then the method i used to help wolf above may solve your problem

i have modified the gadget as requested .
may only work with ie installed.
if you use other browsers i dont know if sidebar will work these commands ( it uses XMLHttpRequest() ) .

hi glad you got it working.
this post should help you http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1444284 with font etc.

i should really create an 'options' for that but as i said it needs finishing.
but it is easy to do . open your notepad and drop the file wcl2remote.html in and see the lines:-
f.src = "http://www.lfsworld.net/hoststatus/?h=[WCL]+Rallycross+Demo";

and

f.src = "http://www.lfsworld.net/hoststatus/?h=[WCL]+S2+Server";

and change to the server(s) you want

and then to change the buttons titles change the value="xx" part of the line below:-
<input type="button" value="DEMO" onclick="Reload('r1')">
</TD><TD><input type="button" value="s2" onclick="Reload('r2')"></TD><TD></form>
then resave the file.
you will need to save the file in another directory and then copy back as notepad is not allowed to save in the gadget directory (windows nanny state) hope this helps. when i get a chance i will add this option . if you have problem let me know what servers you want and i will amend.

Here are a few windows 7 gadgets
they are not 'polished' but...............
all use idk access which can be setup in the lfs desktop.(ses my lfsw settings then pustat access)
you wil need to unzip these files in your c:\program files\windows sidebar\Gadgets directory.
and then add a gadget in the normal way.
all source is there so feel free to amend /improve.
i only really did them to see how gadgets work but i thought they might be useful so here they are:-
1) a gadget to monitor the online status of a user
2) a gadget to wait for a host to be right for you
( you set track /layout/ direction and minimium no of drivers and it gives you a list that you can then watch /join etc)
3) a gadget to monitor a couple of hosts (currently WCL) but easy to change
4) a gadget to monitor for new LFS wr
