New Race Viewer/Profiler (ESP) Utility Released

[ColdSteel]

Andrés,

Yes, it does work okay with the DevNullGoldMod on my PC.

No, I still don't have the new Version up yet because I'm working on some other changes that Raynor had suggested. I should be able to get Version 1.2 up by this weekend sometime.

Thanks again.

This is a very cool program. Thanks.

I just released a new Version 1.2 over in the mod area.

With new Version I had a crash while the prog were examining Andrès Lescanos races... an error in a Nostropholo files ...
Strange things is that v 1.0 worked all right through !

Ok I continued to test, now with the new Version.

Error message it shows is:

Traceback (most recent call Last):
File (<string>, line 199, in onGen
File "HTMLgen.py", line 190, in write
IOError [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

What doesn't look like much help.
The status line shows:

Generating HTML for RaceName


It generates succesfully RaceName.html, but not RaceName_Ships.html

What I did was remove that race and try again.
I repeated that 7 times, removing the romulan, vandron, SW-REB, SW-TF, ygath, zorian and regency before the program runned succesfully.
Number of htmls generated seems to be constant: 161, the error always seemed to appear before attempting to generate the 162nd file.
My guess is that it is some variable overflow generated because of the large number of races I have installed.
(I had re-installed some races after the previous test, so total number of races I have now is larger than what I had then, I guess that then removing the devnull mod removed enough races to make the difference back then.)
Now I have 78 races only in the main races dir.

To confirm that it is related to the total number and not to those races in particular, I re-installed them and removed other 7 races and the program worked ok.

Probably this is the same error PDF has found, I bet that he also has many races installed.

Andrés, indeed I had the *same* (senseless...) message and lots of races installed (TDM, yours, Atrocities'Trek races, DevNull, Hadrian A races, etc etc ...)
Perhaps when I ran ESP 1.0 I had less and so it worked ...
