Falcon Scouting System Release

[falconmaster]

Good Job Serg!

Team 2512 has been looking forward to using your system at competition since it was first released, and planning on testing it during week 0 and 1 before our week 2 regional. For testing though is there any way that you know of to develop a random match schedule for the system? Also is there any way of getting the match schedules for week 1 online so we can do some testing during week 1? Thanks A LOT for making this open to the public I am sure many will appreciate it.

Well, in order to use the system you need a previously made text file that contains the matches in it. For testing purposes, you can just input a whole bunch of random matches and use those. That is what I did to test it.

Sorry, but for some reason my window doesn't match up with the instructions, for example there is no setup teams button and the event button doesn't switch to a skip button when pressed. what am I doing wrong?

Strange. Are you sure you are using the Scouting program and not the sorting one?

looks great though my only problem with it is it completely ignores defense which will be highly influential this year

When you click format excel it says "please choose a black excel..." just a heads up haha but great job.

Do you think that you could make a video of the system being setup for a mock competition? I think that it would be a great help.

This seems like a great idea. I will see what I can do.

I am aware of this haha. I forgot to change it at the end.

If it is really that necessary for teams to have this, I can put something for it.

[Stegrubb]

No, I was using the sorting one, sorry about that, however when I try and run the scouting program nothing happens, it pops up with the window that connects to the internet to verify, but after that nothing happens. I ran the program in a virtual machine to see if it was something miss configured in my OS and in the VM it just crashes. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Do you have Slim DX installed?

Edit: What OS are you using? This has only been tested for Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Is there a phone version for the iPhone, making it more portable would be very useful at competition.

Sadly, no. This was made so all the scouters can scout together. I never intended to make an app for it.

[Stegrubb]

I am running Windows 7 home premium and I have installed slimDX. Is there anything else that I need for the program to run
