rec.autos.simulators

Downloaded it from the Pits, and all seems fine until I try loading an
ICR2 replay when it bombs out with.....

             Assertion failed: cp, file CARSET.CPP, line 60
Abnormal program termination-- Please be patient -----+
                         |                            |
                         |  Reading replay file       |
                         |                            |

Anyone else had this?

Anyone any ideas what to do about it?

Cheers!

I've had the exact same problem, i also e-mailed the guy who made it but as
yet i haven't had a reply, i downloaded it from the pits a couple of times
as it did say that it worked with icr 2. Let me know if anyone gets the
answer to it.

It could well be that your telling the program that you've useing
version 1 replays from Indycar.

To read a replay from Indycar2 you have to lie to the program and tell
it that your using Nascar, as the file formats are the same.

If it asks what track and its not shown, then lie!

Natch!

I have.....now

JJ> If it asks what track and its not shown, then lie!

Did that as well.

Thanks for that.....not sure that it's clear in the instructions.....but
perhaps I didn't read them properly. "When all else fails.....RTFM!!!"

All working now it seems. Got a huge text file out from a couple of
laps.

Me thinks I need an evening with a spread-sheet program to make sense of
these......unless someones's already worked those out as well already?

Cheers!

 * RM 1.3 U0414 *  I don't do Windows, but OS/2 does.

I had tried to download it 67723 times from The Pits main site but it always
stopped downloading after a few kilobytes. Then I tried to download it from
the US Mirror and got it on the very first try. And I had the same problem
as Toby. I looked at the About window and it said that it is version 2.1
(or 2.0), it was NOT 2.6 as it was supposed to be)!!!

EditRpy that supports ICR2 can be found on didnt.doit.wisc.edu.

Jed, maybe you should look at the editrpy.zip that is available at The Pits,
is it really version 2.6?

This version now understands ICR1, NASCAR, and ICR2.

You might try this version and see if it works any better.  I've sent
a copy to Jed so thePits should get updated in the near future.

I'll be uploading it tonight.

I'm not sure what you get if you tell version 2.6 that your replay is from Nascar, but I can assure you that the Nascar and Indycar2 replay formats are not the same.

Version 3.0 is needed to support Indycar2.

So, all those of you who have been using pre-3.0 versions of Editrpy
for ICR2 are not hallucinating.  :-)

Of course, using ICR2 replays of ICR tracks by specifying NASCAR as the
simulator (and providing no track name or one of the NASCAR tracks) will
get wrong lap times/speeds.  This is because Editrpy needs to know the
precise track length (in Papyrus units) to compute the correct lap time.
