Some dedimania records disappear

Hi all,

Since many time, some dedimania records who have been done during the time limit disappear after the end of the map..

What's the problem ?

For exemple, one of my team member drove this time : http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/201 … m-time.png

And after the end of the map his dedi has disappeared..

Could you add it again please ? That's a really good time on a famous map...

Re: Some dedimania records disappear

I had similar problems when on the server I did instant restart or skip,and shortly after the record is gone, that's the only way I know how it could happen. I think Slig and Xymph have a bit more knowledge about this.

But either way, don't get your hopes up for restoring that record, as it happened allready on many maps for many people. And a picture is a hard thing in my eyes, I require a replay to believe someone actually did that time. Not that I don't trust you, I must not trust anyone. smile

I'm sorry about your dedi though, it looks like a decent record.

Re: Some dedimania records disappear

Hi, thank you for your answer wink He said me he restarted the map but at the end of time limit..

About the record, yeah of course i understand, i asked him to send me his replay (i hope trackmania auto saved it).

I hope, with the replay, they will add it..

Re: Some dedimania records disappear

Main cases where the script itself will reject :
- current map when the script is started (when if the run is started after the script, and is the best done by the player - ie he did not made a better time before the script was started, the depending of the script it may accept it)
- some strange this in checkpoints times which make the script reject it
- the script fails to get the validation replay from the dedicated
- in case of top1, the script fails to get the ghost replay
- the connection with dedimania server failed or timed out, so no time sent, and of course not stored

Dedimania itself may reject because of a mismatch between the validation replay and the best time sent, anyway in such case the script should have detected the problem and reject itself before sending it...  in all case dedimania will reply an error/warning message about it, so the script knows it.

So.... theorically the script should have written in its log something about the problem.

Re: Some dedimania records disappear

Nothing exists to add en entry in Dedimania by hand easily, and anyway a correct entry would need to get server and its scripts infos, date/time, validation replay (and ghost/server/client replay if top1), checkpoints times.  It's really not made for that, sorry.

If he have the replay then he should better consider uploading it on TMX.   And eventually do it again... or better !  wink
