Hi, As we didn't include any detailed info about this in the readme-file I though I'd post this to clear things up. Question: How do I use GPL Replay Analyser to get times for TaintRank? Answer: 1. For addon tracks you must make sure you have a replay from when you set your fastest lap. That is the only way GPLRA can know what laptimes to use for addon tracks. It doesn't have to be a big replay, however it needs to cover a small part of the session the laptime was set. 2. Run GPLRA and enter PB Viewer. Select the player to use if the default isn't correct. 3. Click Display. Now GPLRA searches player.ini and scans all replays in \gpl\replays, alternative GPL path and any Replay CD databases you have created. 4. Click Export to .ini and save the ini-file. 5. Connect to TaintRank and upload that ini-file. 6. Done! :) Cheers, /Martin

I ran RA just now and took a look at the PB viewer. After creating the exported ini file I glanced again at the lap times. At the bottom of that window I seen the link and clicked on it. Glad the link was there, just wish it had big blinking arrows pointing to it and in a size 700 font ;-)

The PB Laps viewer doesn't work on my computer (never did with previous versions). Instead of times, GPLRA shows parts of the player.ini-file, like "i-aliasing on or off|debris = 1 |; Debris on or off" and so on. Instead of the pipe-symbol |, it's apparently character "09" (hexadecimal). What's wrong on my system? Player.ini messed up because of saving with notepad after some manual editing? The same happens with all 7 player.ini-files. -- ____ /______\_ .\\ a t t h e a d [ XT./~~~~ [ Rex\_____ http://my.bawue.de/~matthead \____/\__]_] 1977' Yamaha XT.Rex 500 Enduro (154 Mm)
Im not sure whats up, but it keeps crashing when I hit the display button...maybe I missed a setting. JB "Martin Granberg" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Sounds as if something is strange with the ini-file anyway. Zip it up(to prevent the textfile being modified by mail systems) and mail it to me and I'll have a look. You don't get any times for addon tracks either? Cheers, /Martin

It shouldn't crash no matter what. But make sure the GPL path in File->Settings is correct. An incorrect path there has caused the program to crash sometimes for other people. Let me know if that is the problem so I can hunt the problem down. Cheers, /Martin
