Thanks for this work, fantastic!!

superb! thanks gai

[Yisc[NL]]

I had Lapper 3.8 runner on .NET 1.1 and had several problems with it. Is .NET 1.1 sufficient or should I install .NET 2.0 or 3.0? Thanks for the work you put in to this program to keep it running and thanks to the initial developer.

when i close lfslapper to restart it because i have changed the lfslapper.cfg it says "InSim - UDP : no slots available" even though i have all the slots up at maximum.

Yes i have also had this when using LFSSTATs also developed by Gai-Luron. To fix it I reset insim by typing "/insim 0" within LFS then starting the port again by typing "/insim 29999". I suspect it is LFS realising it has lost connection with the app & I am not sure if it can be fixed other than reseting insim as above.

[Gai-Luron]

Hello,

This message it's not a problem, LFSLapper Or LFSStat work without problem and this message stop after a while. It's due to the multiple UDP connection and that i'am not closing UDP connection on exit. This will be fixed in the future. The /insim 0 it's a good think.

Yes flinty72, LFSStat and LFSLapper use the same object insim for connection, code and decode insim packet. If in the future, insim change again, i change insim object for the two programm. It's so easy

@Yisc[NL]: i don't know for .NET version. I dev and use the 2 version and LFSLapper work also on a old version of mono ( compatible .NET 1.1 i think )

Bye

hey, first of all: great work with the new lapper ! thank you

i have a feature request:

is it possible to add different messages for different split times?

like for SP1:

32,0 = Good Split
31,5 = Great Split
31,0 = Unbelievable Split

with configurable split actions to show

and when this is done maybe a configurator for the drivers, where you can set what split times to show, e.g.:

/split great

to show only great and faster split times and not the good ones.


and maybe is it possible to save TPB to a file, so its saved for the next time? at the moment tpb is always deleted when you quit server.


would be wonderful !

[gwendoline]

Maybe its possible to save TPB date to date (eg during prequalify sessions on many days before race) ?

[[d9]]

hi,

thanx for your work, i hope in success with debugging of crashes of last lapper versions (and other bugs - eg. drift actions can not be multiple (separator | not work)),

...and some suggestions based on experience with another "similar" lapper utility which can be seen on zion servers:

- admin commands - eg. !stop - stops of reset/quali countdown
- multiple and car/track depend split messages (requires maybe additional .cfg file with table of split times)
- !!! private messages works even when player is in spectate mode !!!

and maybe something from that would be nice too

- !top, !stats commands with options of display other track than current eg. !top BL2R XRG
- simply admin alowed top table edit (!delete BL1 XRT 12 ... or so ... maybe !rename... - usuable mainly in demo i know...)

best regard!

[imthebestracerthereis]

[Bose321]

I have a request, I got LFSLapper working
But can someone help me whit a insim mod like caribbean cruise?
In now and 2 months i have a LAN-Party, then i wanna do that,

So, please help me

[wonderous]

I get this error message when building.
http://www.theohbrothers.com/myserve...Untitled-7.gif


I have netframework 2.0 installed in my pc.. previous lappers all work great except for this one..so wut can be the problem

and o yes, where's the link for the php version of webstats? is it still compatible with this version of lapper?

and one more question..due to the new insim version the car codes have changed right? so how do I make changes to my old pb.txt file some of the output is "XR GT TURBO" and "XRT"... if I use an editor and replace all "XR GT TURBO" with "XRT" will I have duplicated PBs?
I attached my PB files here:
PB and DriftPB.zip

[Gai-Luron]

Hello,

- For your error mesage, it's seem you use framework 1.1 for compiling. The best way is to install c# visual Studio. You can find it here : http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualcsharp/

- For the conversion. Lapper do it automatically since my 3.9 version. Don't worry, now lapper will convert your old version PB to new.

- For the future extension to Lapper, if anyone have a time to spent and make a database file (.txt) of track to help me. This file must contain length and reference split for each track reversed or no. Split reference are to visualize message like Split1Action in the cfg file.
exemple:

[BL1]
length=5.4
car=XFG
split1=X.XX.XX
split2=X.XX.XX
car=XRT
split1=X.XX.XX
split2=X.XX.XX
...
[FE2R]
length=10
car=XFG
split1=X.XX.XX
split2=X.XX.XX
car=RAC
split1=X.XX.XX
split2=X.XX.XX
split3=X.XX.XX
...
Etc...

[Burbulis]

i do not understand... i had some lappers before, but its again and again....
Im changing password in cfg file. When im starting lfs server, im giving a command: /insim=29999. When it says: InSim failure; could not initiliaze InSim. What i should to do?
When im starting "NETstartdefault", it says : "could not find file .... /bin/your_file.flt."
Wtf? should i create something? its nothing about it in instructions.
So please help me, if you can. i really wanna have lfs lapper on my server

[wonderous]

Hey lapper is working well!

TO Burbulis

Im changing password in cfg file. When im starting lfs server, im giving a command: /insim=29999. When it says: InSim failure; could not initiliaze InSim.

I'm not sure on this one, coz it should get any error message..
Are you running a dedicated server or just a normal one?
If you're running dedicated then you just need to change the insim in your setup.cfg file
// optional: InSim port
/insim=29999
Just run the server, the insim will be initialised automatically. Then run lapper and the connection will be established.

When im starting "NETstartdefault", it says : "could not find file .... /bin/your_file.flt."

I got these error so many times i'm so familiar with them.
Open your LFSLapper.cfg file
locate these statements and put a # sign at the front each of them:

RefreshQualUser = true
QualUsers = &./your_file.flt

that should clean up the problem! good luck!

[Biskvit]

Hello racers. Help please. Lapper gives the mistake and in a certain time is closed.

[Gai-Luron]

Hello,


"Unknown packet received:SMALL" is a trace dev message, but don't interfer with work of Lapper. Ignore it!

If you have this message, your connection insim work correctly. If lapper close, you have an other message...

Hi

I can do the tracks and cars we use on Conedodgers but it will be limited, i have no idea on the other tracks

Will that help?

But i did have a thought, in LFS Stats you get the WR from LFSWorld, not sure about splits, could you use 105% of that as a starting point

[A.Fedorov]

Bug. VCom (grey color) display right.

p.s. on track AI

[jmari]

Gai Luron, thank's for your great job !...

I have this message :
Unknown packet received:CRS

It's a french abreviation ?
