VBestLap - Virtual Best Lap =========================== This program takes a GPLap .log file and examines the split times to make a guess at what the theoretical best lap time would be. Usage is very simple; type "vbestlap gplap.log" (substitute the name of your GPLap log file as appropriate). VBestLap will examine only complete laps, but will attempt to cope with varying setups, tracks, and players. VBestLap will most likely wind up terminally confused if you give it a log with varying split percentages in, so stick with 25/50/75. Example output: Track 16: Adelaide Setup: 64/40:16R:24,32,40,48,56,63 Spl Car_Lap_BestDiff_VirtTime Car_Lap_BestTime BLapDiff_BLapTime 1 27 1 0:15.637 0:15.637 27 1 0:15.637 0:16.191 0:16.191 2 27 1 0:17.996 0:33.633 27 1 0:34.187 0:17.996 0:34.187 3 27 1 0:15.383 0:49.016 27 1 0:49.570 0:15.383 0:49.570 4 27 1 0:20.439 1:09.455 27 1 1:10.009 0:20.439 1:10.009 Meaning: Spl split number Car car number that did corresponding BestDiff Lap lap in which corresponding BestDiff was done BestDiff best difference between any two consecutive split times VirtTime virtual split time corresponding to BestDiff Car car number that did corresponding BestTime Lap lap in which corresponding BestTime was done BestTime best split time of all split times BLapDiff difference between two split times done in best lap BLapTime split time done in best lap, (4th BestTime) Normally, all laps are considered equal even if driven by different cars or with different setups. You can use one or both of the "-cars-separate" and "-setups-separate" options to cause VBestLap to consider them separately.
