Virtual Dyno - Standalone Software
If you install, without first deleting the old xml files, it does not install the new xml files.
And throws an error.
Delete the old columns xml, re-install, and it works.

well this is what I see when I run the program with one of my logs, I dont know why is very jumpy when smoothing is at 0, it does get better with around 2 in the smoothing table, but the hp is a lot lower. My ? what HP do I actually have? Sorry about the probably stupid question, but I am not familiar with dynos at all, I have never brought my car to a dyno. The horse power it shows is 537hp at 6100 rpms at 0 smoothing. I am pretty confident that my car is built to support this, but I am not sure if this number is accurate, because the graph is not smooth. May be the problem that I am using mitsulogger?

^^ correct, with the smoothing too low the graph is filled with spikes and not representative of your true hp/tq. Keep adding smoothing until it's smooth. Most people need 5-10 smoothing, some need much more if they have a jumpy rpm signal.
The amount of smoothing is dependent on your logging speed and resolution of data. People who use 2-byte RPM will need different smoothing than 1-byte and people who use DMA will need different smoothing than MUT/Evoscan, etc.
Since this calculates your tq/hp from the data, you adjust your smoothing to fit your data and data rate. It's pretty obvious when your smoothing is correct. But, don't use too much...just enough to get a decent curve.

The last 2 versions, I could just install the latest version... The last version(1.5) required that I uninstall, and reinstall to find the .xml files/columns

I didnt distribute the graphsettings.xml with this edition to keep from having to overwrite your current settings but I see that is not a good idea. Ill be posting a new copy of V5 in a second. Im sorry for this mishap. I realize now that I modified the settings file structure and it requires that I disribute it. It was a mistake on my part when packaging up the files.
So if you want to just uninstall the current v5 and download the copy that is posted to the website now. It should install to the default location nonschlont. I wanted to save everyones settings but now I realize that with such few settings it isnt that big of a deal to redo the settings when you get a new version. It will keep more consistancy to the distributions.
