Short: Keep track of your Autosport Fantasy Grand Prix II team.
Type: game/misc
Action: NoStart
uploader/author: austins@sol1.uel.ac.uk (Simon Austin)
What is FGP?
FGP is a program
written primarily for people participating in Autosport's Fantasy Grand
Prix competition. It allows the user to keep track of up to 100 individual
teams. This is useful as Autosport only ever prints the top (and bottom
<shudder>) 100 teams and most people aren't in there :-(
Is that all it does?
Pretty much. It will however handle
an entire season of results, rather than the less-than-half season
used in the Autosport competition.
What will it run on?
FGP was primarily developed on the
Amiga, but, by only using portable C code, it can also be compiled
and run on other platforms. It has successfully been compiled on
several Unix systems and I have been informed that it has compiled on OS/2.
It won't compile and run under either Windows or MS-DOS (and
similar) since it requires reasonable sized filenames.
I've used an earlier version of FGP, what does version 2.10 offer me?
Well first, it's much faster
than previous versions. This is not really important in a program like FGP,
but the speed up is quite noticeable, particularly under Unix.
Secondly, it provides an improved version
of the standard race ouput and two new complete-season tables detailing
the scores obtained by the drivers and the teams in all races so far.
Thirdly, to accomodate disqualified drivers a
new form of data file is being used.
Fourthly, it still reads the old data
files so you'll only need to create new data files if you want to.
Fifthly, it allows comments in any of
the data files it uses (with one exception).
Finally, it provides more error checking
of the data files (no more Unknown drivers in the output).
