Hi,
it doesn't work. As long as 3dfibs runs, the stats.dat is update correctly and I can view it.
But when I leave 3dfibs and view the *.dat with my explorer I find a stats2.dat with date and time of exiting 3dfibs and the following content:
mloner~0~0~0
gnu~0~0~0
MonteCarlo~0~0~0
gnu_tutorI~0~0~0
stats.dat is also there and contains:
mloner~0~0~ Another FIBS bot
gnu~0~0~GnuBG based 1 ptr bot
MonteCarlo~0~0~The oldest bot on FiBS and a real lucky one
gnu_tutorI~0~0~A GnuBG bot that gives hints
But the statistics of my session are gone.
I'm using WinXP. Should I reinstall?
TIA
Andreas
Hi there,
It seems that there is a bug in the backup scheme with some minimum file size requirements. I have to go back and clean it up. In the mean time, delete stats2.dat and replace contents of stats.dat with this.. (10 entries)
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
filler123~0~0~0
This should work.. if you have any additional data, you can add to it. It just needs to be a minimum 170 bytes or so.
Thanks for taking time to report this error!!
I am sure all new users were affected but no one bothered to say anything.
