Update log

Current version:

v0.54

configuration saved in an xml file
option to disable fadeout when exiting program
Default selected options for the series and tracks filter (see support)
filter on racestate
support for NR2002
basic irc functionality (multiple server support, automatic login in channels, ...)
mousewheel support to scroll the list

v0.54b

fixed joining passworded servers + added ability to join a server with boss password (right click on server -> start game with boss password)
added an option to override the default to_ip option that is sent to the game when starting a server. When problems occur when connecting to servers (when multiple interfaces are available on your pc), try setting this override option (options -> game tab) to the ip of the interface on your pc which is connected to the internet. This might solve the problem.

v0.54c

fixed some bugs
added possibility to join sierra with different sierra user profiles (see explanation)
when getting a private message, the focus doesn't automatically go to the private tab (annoying with spam bots...)

v0.54d

fixed a bug where the "default selected" values on the track and series filter weren't saved correctly
ability to set the fonts for the irc chat (there was a bug which caused other fonts being used on different systems)

v0.54e

adjusted the pinging process: when starting the program all servers still get pinged (as normal). But when the list is being refreshed, only the servers get pinged which aren't in the race or setup state. This has been requested as all the pinging seems to cause some bandwidth issues on some servers. Its still possible to ping a specific server by right clicking, and selecting the ping command off course

v0.54f

fixed a bug which caused the program not to start when being executed on pc's with certain country settings.

v0.54g

fixed a bug which caused the "default select" part of the series and tracks filter not to work
added the ability to automatically minimize the program when nascar starts (file->options->general)
added a menu item (Irc->Join default chatroom) to join the #nr2003 chatroom on shadowworld
fixed a bug where a disconnect from an irc server occured, reconnect wouldn't always work

Previous versions:

22/01/2003 v0.53

filtering options largely improved. Now filtering is possible on
- multiple series
- multiple tracks
- hostname / servername (regular expressions, see support)
- password, damage, yellows, fixed setup, hardcore mode, sim mode, pc opponents
- hiding servers of which you don't have the track
- lots of intervals for numeric values
dragable window for filtering, can be attached on either border of the window (with autohide by using the "pin" button), or just float
"settings" column -> racesettings of the server (see support for explanation of the values)
fixed a bug where the ip could not be found when a "0" was in the ip address
lots of internal changes, of which you guys probably won't notice much (except for some speed improvements hopefully...)

4/01/2003 v0.52

when the ping value exceeds the maxLatency, it gets colored in a user-defined color
improved the method for filling/updating the list, should be a bit faster now
made the track and series recognition case-insensitive. Some bugs were caused by this
added maxLatency column, and removed the ip (security reasons)
added RC, ST, SW and SS columns for viewing rating restrictions on servers seperatly
added Ratings column for viewing all rating restrictions in 1 column
added minimum LPI required to join the server
fixed a bug where the game gave an error when the to_sierra parameter in core.ini wasn't set right

31/12/2003 v0.51

track is being placed between < and > if its not yet owned by the user (works after the nascar dir was entered in the options form)
ip info available
pinging to servers
joining servers
some more window options (save window placement/size, transparency, always on top)
