GPaedia Maker 0.903 released

Fixed:
* corner data output was always read as mph from track.csv and converted wrong into English.gps, if data was in km/h.
now by default all values are read as km/h; if you want english corner data to be read as mph, you can set the new value "corner_as_miles" in the gpaedia.ini file to 1.

Enhanced:
* GPaedia Maker Manual
* gpaedia.ini

Still some bug (sigh), therefore:
GPaedia Maker 0.904 released
Fixed: "corner_as_miles" value was not read from ini file

* new gpaedia.ini parameter "driver_columns" to allow more than the default=44 columns in the driver.csv if needed (e.g. in 1994).
* gpaedia.ini

GPaediaMaker 1.00 released

This is a major update including the new "free format" feature, which allows a free gps file arrangement
using the 3 new CSV files "driverformat.csv", "teamformat.csv" and "trackformat.csv".
Standard formats are provided in the data archiv.

User defined (non standard) formats can be created in the directory of the CSV data files and are used if the specification "user_format" is set (= 1) in the ini file.
As new CSV files are not compatible with older GPaediaMaker versions files, old csv files have to be converted
using the new tool "convertcsv.exe" before using them with version 1.00.

Enhanced:
* 6 new output possibilities for better compatibility with original GP4 gpaedia
* 5 ini file processing improvements
* 3 CSV editing improvements
* gpaedia.log with more information
* GPaediaMaker Guide

Fixed:
* 3 minor fixes
* Wrong trackinfo (trackrecords) display order of tracks 16, 17
As this was a serious (but hard to recognize) error that made all gps files created with GPaediaMaker 0.905 or earlier faulty,
it's recommended to update them with the new version.


You will find detailed information about the changes in the Gp4form.txt

GPaediaMaker 1.02 released

The main point of this update is the new ability to switch driver, team or track columns in your csv files
by using the new gpaedia ini switch specifications.
You can put all your data into your csv files, even if they contain more than 11 (teams), 22 (drivers) or 17 (tracks) columns.
By setting switch values you select which columns are used and thus easily create different versions of gpaedia out of one set of csv files.
This also supports gpaedia creation for GP4 mods with team/driver selection. As an example see 1992mod gpaedia.

Enhanced:
* New ini file values "sw_team", "sw_driver" and "sw_track" for switching teams/drivers resp. tracks.
* Ini file variable %program_path% has a default value now: path of the exe file (txt2gps_ff.exe).
* gpaedia.ini update
* GPaediaMaker Guide update (new: 11.7.2013)
Fixed:
* Value "all_tracks" deleted in ini file and documentation because it was not supported anymore

GPaediaMaker 1.03 released

This update covers a problem that ocurs while using str menu files with CSM and TSM. If the first tracks grand prix name is not "Albert Park", TSM core will display an error message "Corrupted language file..." and not load the track set.
By setting the gpaedia ini file value make_str=2, GPaediaMaker will write "Albert Park" as the first tracks name into the "english.str", thus avoiding the error message. You should then specify the first tracks name in his "settings.ini" file, to get correct race menu displays.

Enhanced:
* Extended ini file value "make_str".
* gpaedia.ini update
* GPaediaMaker Guide update

GPaedia Maker 1.04 released

This update was necessary because the switch values introduced by version 1.02
got no complete checking, which could lead to an unprotected program error.

Fixed:
* Missing switch value checking routine added.
* GPaediaMaker Guide worked over and updated
* example 1991 readme updated
* archives "convertcsv.zip", "data.zip" and "examples.zip" now contain a folder (examples: two) to make "extract here" possible

See switch error message display

GPaedia Maker 1.05 released

This update was necessary because the switch checking introduced by version 1.04 produced an error if the driver.csv got less that 23 columns.

Some enhancements are added, the most notable concerning the log file.

The way how menu files are compiled from the tracktable has changed.
If you want to recreate gpaedia for CSM/TSM including menu files, be sure to set the specification "make_str = 2" if the name of track1 is not "Albert Park". Please note: this only works if you start with english language.

Fixed:
* Switch error that occurred if driver columns < 23
* Reading of file "special.txt"
* Updated "nationality.csv" and "grand_prix.csv": row "Korea" added, some corrections.
* Menu file generation of a test track: country beginning with "Test" is not checked for existence in nationality.csv anymore
* Menu file national adjective creation while using a switched track
Changed:
* Menu file creation is now done using tracktables column 1 (circuit name) for grand prix and column 2 (country) for the country in the str file. Column 3 (circuit info name) is only used in gps files as header of the track gpaedia section.
Enhanced:
* Extended driver replace for tracks > 17: you can add "driver replace for track" rows in the driver.csv with numbers greater than 17 to support driver replace for tracks switched by the specification sw_track.
* Console display of "sw_track" ini specs are merged into one row to limit lines
* Gpaedia log file more detailed information:
- check drivertab/teamtab/tracktab titles added to show where warning messages are belonging to
- switch no. added to gps processing logs
- str file creation with complete processing logs
* GPaediaMaker Guide (updated 2013-07-31)

GPaediaMaker 1.06 released

This is a minor update with a not urgent fix and an enhancement for the track switch specification.

Fixed: Unwanted empty line output in track record section after "#"-suppressed cell content
Enhanced: Ini specification sw_track supports a range input, e.g. to switch all columns from 4 to 17 to column 21:
sw_track 4 to 17 = 21
GPaediaMaker Guide is updated accordingly (some additional changes: 2013-08-19).

+ new ini parameter "track_1" (default = 1, for second tracklist usually set to 18)

* gpaedia.ini
* GPaediaMaker Guide
* In the log file the driver replace number is added to driver lists output
