    V 1.0.7.0 Available
    Use RainDensity=(2) for storm weather instead of 0
    Include the current community config XML

    yeah that works.

    Also would be good to save weather data to a different file so you can have a big catalogue of past weather without recalling it from weather website all the time, just need to pick a date in the past and it will populate from this data. Obviously will have to have an option to purge data beyond a certain date as the file could get a bit big :)

    Please download the last version, the 1.0.4 that you use, does not have user friendly message when a directory path is not found.

    I think with the new version, your error will be explained.

    Keep me informed, thanks

    Download the new V 1.1.0
    Finally, i have redesigned the application, as asked by Woodee.
    Now the application show the 3 sessions in the same screen.

    You need a width resolution of 1280 pixel, at least, to see the whole application content without using scrollbars.

    You have two 'link' buttons that you can desactivate to unlink practice/qualif and qualif/race.

    Could you tell me if the new version works for you ? (i'have included a 48x48 icon for Windows XP)
    Click here to download v1.1.1

    For everyone, the v1.1.1 set the Weather to "scripted" in the PLR when you save the weather (with checked option)

    It gives me error: directory not found C:\documents and settings\blah blah\rfactor2\/userdata/player/settings/barcelona - suddenly decides that windows directory format not good enough any more and it would rather use unix-style notation.

    ;)

    But it does run and does open the actual application.

    I think it only works if you have ever been to the track before, as the settings dirs are only created when you go to a track. Right?

    It is just a warning as the setting directory does not exists for this track (this mean that you dont have the track, or you never launch this track layout)

    As the config files contains many track, it is most likely that some are missing, it is normal.
