Log editing works- but I can't load file into Virtual Dyno

Post by Zaphod »

Hi Phil,

yesterday I made a quiet huge log including a 4th gear 2000-7200 rpm run.

I can cut the file in MLV and save as a new modified file - but I can't get Virtual dyno to load the file. (
I get the following error message in Virtual dyno:#
E101: Not all columns needed for calculations found.
REQUIRED COLUMNS: Time, RPM, Throttle Position
If your log does not contain these, the developer does not need your log.
I can load the whole huge file though...

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Maybe a bug in mlv, doing something wrong/changing the file format when shortening logs?

upload here the big log and the short one so phil can see if something is wrong...

It looks like your log has a # for the 1st row, I'm guessing the apps parser doesn't like that.
I can get rid of that.

O.K. thanks - will it be in an update?

Edit: Nevermind - I just removed the first row in Excel and it works! Thanks!
