... rFactor and NetKar seem to be good examples of this. However, to be fair, if the caster angle is 0 this is largely correct.

Just for info, the recently released 1.0.3 patch of NetkarPro fixes this problem. Kunos explained that in previous releases the caster angle was always fixed at 0 and now is correctly set.

Yes, I'm using the same code included as an example in the package.

This code never gets to echoing 'Test'.
Including lfsworldsdk_all.php works as expected...

Update, nothing major. You'll should know the drill by now.

There is one extra thing in there now tho. There is a file called, lfsworldsdk_all.php, what that file does is convert the different bit flags for you. The normal lfsworldsdk.php file has that ability, the functions are there, but it is not done on the fly.

I've been playing around with this SDK and I found a couple of problems.

- while lfsworldsdk_all.php seem to work as expected, trying to use lfsworldsdk.php results in page timeout without any result retrieved.
Comparing the two I couldn't spot the difference in the code responsible for this... (I'm just beginning with PHP, sorry)

- host progress gives problems related to compression issue. Removing the compression bit from the query solves the problem.

Quote from flyby3d :

Just a little bug report I haven't seen mentioned before:
- if I open your program and LFS is already open, than your program will be EXTREMELY slow, moving sliders happens with huge delay, practically unusable.

I'm bumping my old post just to say that I finally found what was the problem and to share the solution.

My problem was apparently related to my CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2

with LFS and WHPA open at the same time, for some reason VHPA would slow down, almost unusable.

installing the utility AMD Dual-Core Optimizer from AMD website, solved completely the problem!

Brilliant!

nice!

I've got some time on my hands, why don't I just teach you how to do this. One post at a time, one function at a time, one line at a time. It will take about a month tho in total. But if you've got the time, I've got the time.

Nice! I'm interested.

Hi!

Is there any way to use Lapper to execute an autoaction whenever a user drives more laps in a single session than allowed by the admin/leaguemanager?

Eg. a league where qualifying session allows a max amount of 8 laps per driver. /spectate driver if [session_laps]>8.

Quote from DemonTPx :

Updated paddock with included the php4-files and lfspoints xml import support.

(Version 7.10beta-09a)

Nice! I did a quick test with the import function and it seems to work well.

Any chance for a few (easy) requests?
- add support for penalities
- add best lap and number of pitstops for each pilot in the race results
- (otional) have a link on the race result line to a more detailed web page with statistics of the race (to be generated with other program like LFS Stats)

Thanks for your work!

edit: thinking about the info shown on the race result page: you could easily combine the "Time" and "Gap" columns in only one, giving total time for the winner and gap for subsequent racers.

Very interesting project.

Installation is easy, except maybe you could put something in the readme about creating at least one user (and remember to SHA1 the password field :doh: me stupid!)

I like the interface and the clean code. nice.

Could become a great app if you make some sort of integration with LFSStats (or similar addon), like importing race results, show detailed reports with race graphs, etc...

Just a little bug report I haven't seen mentioned before:
- if I open your program and LFS is already open, than your program will be EXTREMELY slow, moving sliders happens with huge delay, practically unusable.

Just a little bug report:

In red corrections needed.

What about a tool for league admins that allows to manually setup the starting grid (based on same previous result/qualification)? maybe from a text/csv file with usernames?

Quote from Vykos69 :

- customcam available for spectators pls (especially for streaming, watching league races with roof-cam e.g.)
- POV (not fov) adjustable in cockpitview. Meaning moving the position of the virtual eyes to front/back and up/down to some extent.

Quote from Ian.H :

fly: yes and no
If you expand an MPR replay to view the results, make sure that replay is still selected (and the only one selected) and you can go through the main Export function and tick the 'only selected records' checkbox. This'll export the line from the main MPR grid that's selected and the results of that replay... that's the 'yes' answer (see attachment for an example)

The 'no' answer is that you can't (yet? I'll have a look though) just export the results. That said, the extra info displayed in the main MPR listing might be useful anyway, such as the date, whether there was wind enabled etc.

Thankyou! That's exactly what I was looking for.

The problem I found is that this export function is working only if I choose HTLM.
With csv or xls, it will export only the line selected and the first result of the selected mpr... is it normal?

Hi Ian! Very nice app.

I like very much the export functions you have made. Is there a way to export result tables from single mpr files?

Quote from Bob Smith :

Heh. Anyway, just to note I wouldn't use this program with patch X due to the changes it the setup format. I'm working on those changes next along with a few of the other issues brought to my attention in this thread.

Since you plan on some updates... any chance you could include some more analisys on dampers as described in this attached document?

I have... I went thru my system from top to bottom.... nothing is loaded... exited firewall, disabled anti virus, closed off most of items listed under me in task manager (those that could be safely turned off - basically leaving explorer and something called ccapp.exe.

ccapp.exe si actually a background process of norton antivirus. You might try disabling it...

Thanks!!!

Quote from t1ger :

Currently, re-ordering a race to start in the correct order is done by everyone joining in the correct order. The IS_REO function would simplify this immensly and streamline the hosting process.

I would be perfectly happy for an admin to be able to re-order the race, but I can see that there could be issues if there were multiple admins all trying to re-order the race at the same time. Perhaps only the first admin to connect could do the re-ordering or the admin with the lowest UCID only.

In fact re-ordering the grid is currently a problem for league management.
Immagine qualifying system based on hotlaps or simply doing quals in a different day from race.

I think the simple solution of having admins able to reorder the grid would be good enough. If you (league manager) fear multiple admins causing trouble, just make sure only the "correct" admin (the "host") has the admin password for that race.

Quote from Bob Smith :

If you can tell me a program that will convert a .doc to a .pdf, without being some shitty unconfigurable printer driver (like Flashpaper2), then I'll get the PDF sorted.

well... altough not a "little" program, OpenOffice can handle .doc files and exports .pdf with some configurability http://user-faq.openoffice.org ... lcompatibilitypdf/58.html

Quote from Bob Smith :

Thanks. I did supect the report would only be of real interest to the die hard car techie types.

Actually I thinks that the report is very useful. Altough nothing really new, but somehow is the first time that I see all that stuff together in the same document.

I'm still hoping for a .pdf release (with better pictures)

I was just about to ask you about future developements... and here you go!

Good job.

flyby3d, replacing comma with dot in line 28 of graph.xml might help.

WOW! it works! Thankyou very much.
