Maybe I did something really wrong, but here's what happened when I DLed GPL Spy Girl. I unzipped the file into a separate directory and then tried to run the .exe file by double clicking on it. This voice began screaming "MOOOOOO" and laughing hysterically over and over!! Actually pretty funny, but it didn't do a damn thing for my times at the Glen. BTW, this is absolutely the truth. Thanks, Joe
Hi Joe, You haven't done wrong operation. When you launch Spy Girl, a random sound is played (one of the possible sound is a cow ;-)). At the same time, Spy Girl analyse all replays presents in GPL directory. If you have very much replays, it could take a while, but after a few second you should see a dialog box. Christophe ESNEAULT

Same happened with me, freaked me out at first, but I also get a "This program has performed an illegal operation" msg and then nothing but the laughing and strange French bantering........ GPLCAWW rock's i can't understand why this one won't work for me

Whew! Thanks, thought either I or my machine was losing it for a while there. The other thing I did wrong (other than not waiting for my myriad of replays to get loaded) was to put the program into a separate directory. Once I put it into the GPL Replay directory and gave it a minute or two it worked. In some cases I was unable to load a specific lap, the message said the lap didn't exist in the specified replay, but when it worked it worked very well. Neat program guys, thanks. Joe

I have the same thing (Illegal operation) :( GPL Caww is good, but it sounds like Spy girl is better (easier to use). Maybe it's the amount of replay files in my replay directory? (I have 203 replays saved) Ian

Hi Christophe, Thanks for the program, it works perfectly. But... how do I get rid of those sounds? The first time was very funny, but now they're driving me nuts! Please... Bye, Leo

Salut et Bravo pour Spygirl, Cela dit je suggre : - Qu'on puisse entrer dans Spygirl le nom du rpertoire o est install GPL (le mien est sur le disque D, et ?a m'oblige un tas de manipulations de fichiers inutiles). - Attention, on ne peut extraire un tour que si un autre tour a t ralis aprs (si je veux extraire le tour 2, il me faut le tour 3 enregistr sur le replay sinon ?a passe pas). Ca me fait pas mal de hotlaps perso pas exploitables. Encore merci et flicitations, quand ?a marche c'est gnial ! Thierry Cailleteau
You are right Ian, the maximal number of replay for the version 0.3 is 200. If more replays are presents in the directory, the application crash. This bug will be fixed in next version Christophe ESNEAULT

I deleted over a hundred old replay's... god! don't they mount up..... I wasn't fussed (big h/d see) but then I read about this 200 replay limit... ahh!! I thought, that's why I keep getting the old "This program has has performed an illegal operation" message, great! I thought I'll just delete all of these replay's and everything will be hunky dory..... well guess what!! same message... Damn!! > On Mon, 21 Jun 1999 17:49:12 GMT, "ESNEAULT Christophe" > >You are right Ian, the maximal number of replay for the version 0.3 is 200. > >If more replays are presents in the directory, the application crash.
