Spygirl?

Is it just me, or does everyone have problems getting spygirl to work? I usually manage to get all my programs, applications, games, and utilities, etc to work eventually, but I have never figured out how to merge two replays using spygirl? Can some kind soul please post a brief faq, or instruction on how to merge and watch the replays. I have seen postings from others saying spygirl is great, etc, so it must work ok for others, I am obviously missing something here, and not doing something blatantly obvious, but I just cannot figure it out! BTW, I'm using spygirl v1.0, GPL v1.2, WinVROC v2.0.0.0, and I've just got GPLDump v0.7.5 (and am just about to get spygirl v1.2 cos I know it does not work with spygirl v1). Ta..... 8-) *Peter* - http://www.cix.co.uk/~peterpc/home.html

I'm assuming it's configured correctly & picking up your list of replays when it fires up. You will have a listing of all replays on both the left side & the right side. On the left, choose one of the replays you want to merge. Click the + next to it, it'll open up to reveal driver names in that replay. Select the driver by clicking the + next to his name. Then click the + next to the lap you want used. Do the same on the right side with the 2nd replay you want merged. Then choose where you want them merged at. I used the starting line. Then just click on the Merge button & note the replay name. Fire up GPL & learn! It is a really great tool for finding out where you need help at. I use it in conjunction with the GPL Track Computer from http://members.home.net/gpl/ and the combination is just fantastic!

Spygirl is the best gpl tool of them all ! Read the readme and them read it again. Make sure that Spygirl.exe and Spygirl.ini are in your main gpl folder. When saving replays make sure to save a couple seconds before and after the finish line or they can't be used in Spygirl. If your still having problems then keep asking questions and we will work you through it. Don't give up on it, it's an awesome tool. Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C.
