great program! thanks a lot!

I have one problem tough...why is it only selecting 6-8 drivers at a race? why not all 16players?

Assuming there are at least 16 Bobs available from your friend list, it's a known issue. You can read some more about it a few pages back.
 
did it again after 2 races.. will try the singapore server now.

Edit- nope singapore only lasted 1 race then failed loading the next race. next up hong kong.. *fingers crossed*

Well I'm have trouble opening up the widgetsus file, a message pops up and says "the installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete". i tried downloading it directly from yahoo's site and I still get the error message.

Am I doing something wrong? Can anybody point me in the right direction?

I'm still struggling with this, can anybody help me out?
 
Love this tool its really good bad thing is tho, Is I can only use one racer in remote races all the others tend to be 3 or 4 of the same friends car and one person on my list is more or less nearly 40 on every driver it makes the race stupid in having any chance at all ? any recomendations anyone or is it a bug
 
You using only one driver is the way remote racing works, it has nothing to od with the grinder. you can only ever use one driver when hosting, but when your friends race your drivers, they can, if they wish, use all of your drivers.

As for the driver level, that's just the way it is, although Yonis does have an update coming where you can choose certain friends' drivers to be used always, sometimes or never.
 
Today, when I opened the Grinder, it suddenly said that my account credentials are incorrect, even though I'd changed nothing. I even tried re-typing them, double-checking for errors, didn't work. Suggestions?
 
Thank you for the update, That would be great I dont mind using only one driver but its just with that one friend that it keeps killing it for me

Well one trick is to use two accounts, that way you can host from your secondary account while racing all of the drivers from your main account. Money definately piles up faster.
 
What's going on? Says temp server issue all the time. Says connecting when I tried and did nothing. Close yahoo widget reopen and running race now. But will say temp server issue again like always after a few races.

Have you tried changing the country server?
 
just started all this and it aint working for me , from australia. running the 1.1.3 version i do it all right and it tels me theres nobody to race.. then race started then straight away race ended, whats the go with it!!
 
Some issue have been noted in previous posts in this thread regarding the choices of driver the grinder makes. Have a read back and you may find some tips. One thing you might try is changing the country server. Again, reading backwill give you more info.
 
Love the widget!!!
However, it's not filling a full race for me, and I know my friends drivers aren't being used because they are my sub accounts and don't have any other friends.

Edit: Just realized it's not adding drivers from 1 of my sub accounts. I can add from that account through the web page though.
 
The Widget has entered testing phase, however. I've sent it out to everyone who supported development, either through donations or through hard work on the forums.

I anticipate a very quick beta phase and you will all have it in just a couple more days! :-)
 
Keep up the good work!

I will say that I've encountered a rather strange problem recently:

I can use the widget from my 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate PC and get it to work with only 2 out of 3 accounts and using a non-US server. However, if I use a 32-bit Windows 7 Home Premium PC, I can get all 3 accounts to work just fine even with the US server.

Maybe Yahoo! Widgets doesn't like 64-bit machines?
