Hey, great job.

A good system but I can not run with ubuntu.

the "status.php" says online but hotlaps notes:

LifeView VM Lite
Database connection error.
try again
Version 2.0 beta [Build: 20120628]
Copyright 2011 - 2012 Vortex-Motorsports

------
Anything less indicates monitor.php:

LifeView VM Lite
-----

The marquee.php course:

No session

------

Explained this, the big mistake that I have SL.exe according to the log, if I'm not mistaken, is the path to CurrentScoring.xml

normal for a script in linux would be the following:

.wine/drive_c/Archivos\ de\ programa/rFactor/VMHotlaps/CurrentScoring.xml

please, tell me what I can do: (

(BTW, I have thought to send the file to translate it into Spanish)

tks!!!

Hi JC,

hard to tell if I don't have the original log files. Maybe you can PM me the logs of the loader and the web front end ... however does the Plugin produces a well formed ../VMHotlaps/CurrentScoring.xml file?

Thanx & Cheers
Frank

Hi Frank,

I see that you have done a great job

I'm also developing a similar system but all with Asp.Net for the community to enjoy

I have a little question for you if you don't mind. Did you manage to calculate the Gap at the end of the race? If yes, how did you do it please?

Cheers!

Hi Biker,

I don't mind

... but what do you mean by calculating the gap at the end of the race?

Thanks mate

During the race, this field is called mTimeBehindleader. But after the race, time gap between each driver does not reflect the finish gap.

I can get it from the xml log files but I am seeing if I can compute it from the live timing. The result is like the one shown below in yellow

I tried to calculate it from adding the lap times together but its only updated every lap and looks ugly during the race

Frank Geyer · Apr 10, 2013

If I get u right, u would like to conserve the race finish result with the "true" gap between each driver after a driver crosses the finish line and maybe save it as a race result without using the result xml file ... ? Don't get me wrong, I just want it to understand correctly.

Yes, that's what I mean

Well, maybe I don't really need that

But it would be nice if someone is watching it live and when race is ready the finish gap is there.

Frank Geyer · Apr 10, 2013

Not sure, but u can maybe use an additional column/variable in your db/plugin and fill it after the race status is finished with the actual mTimeBehindLeader of a driver as soon as he crosses the finish line indicated by a higher mLapStartET value as it was before ... !?!? Haven't really checked, just a 1st thought ...

B1K3R · Apr 10, 2013

That might work. Thanks

Hi Jean,

I would like to answer your question, but I really don't know what u mean by that regarding the live timing.

But guessing u might mean taking a picture In-Game, u can either hit the F12 key making a screen shot or u can use FRAPS.

Cheers
Frank

What I would want to make, it is to have for every TEAM the image of the car thatscrolls in the marquee and, in the monitor.

Frank Geyer · Apr 12, 2013

@Hoschi: Ure welcome.

@Jean: OK, I understand. Well what u can do is the following ...

monitordata.php

Code:

...

$MonitorData .= "<tr><th class='monitor'>". $langHigh . "</th>" .
...
                    "<th class='monitor'>". $langVehicle . "</th>" .
                    "<th class='monitor'>". $langVehicleImage . "</th>" .

...

// -- format vehicle image
$vehicleImage = "./img/DefaultVehicle.png"
switch($rowSlots["Vehicle"]){
   case "InGame-Vehicle-Name01": $vehicleImage = "./img/VehicleImage01.png"; break;
   case "InGame-Vehicle-Name02": $vehicleImage = "./img/VehicleImage02.png"; break;
   ...
}

...

$MonitorData .= "<tr class=".$trClass."><td class='center'><input type='checkbox' name='SlotID" . $rowSlots["SlotID"] . "'value='1' " . $slotSelected . " onClick='display()'></td>" .
                                       "<td class='center'>" . $vehicleClass . "</td>" .
                                       "<td class='center'>" . $vehicleImage . "</td>" .

...

Quick an dirty exemplary for the monitor without any warranty.

Cheers
Frank
