Garage - Question thread

[Proto]

Post your questions about the Garage here.

[VegasMatt]

I had an error uploading pics to the garage.

[Proto]

Should be fixed now :)

[greddy]

Garage? Since when is there a garage?

[VegasMatt]

Since five minutes ago!

[Proto]

I got it installed, set the options, and running. Damn members are never thankful :lol:

[Proto]

Patrons can add:
5 vehicles, 10 pics per vehicle, 5 pics per mod

Registered users can add:
2 vehicles, 5 pics per vehicle, 0 pics per mod

[dknight3]

Thanks Proto :)
Would it be possible to change the max image size to 1024x768 though?


edit: woot! no tj to rate me 0/10!

[airborneparainf82]

** Edit: Nevermind! :) **

[RAZ_76]

Good mod, mods!:lol:

[VegasMatt]

Big shoutout to B. G R for purchasing the garage mod for TGC.

[dwjp90]

sooo the garage is like a photo album?

[IceDouTGaLanT]

how do i add mods? every brand has to be approved by admin?

[jimmy_o2]

thanks proto

[the_boogiman]

I got it installed, set the options, and running. Damn members are never thankful :lol:

Yay! Woo hoo! YEAH! Alright! Woooooooooooooo!!! We have a garage again! Many, many thanks to the awesome admins of TGC!

That better? lol.

[Proto]

Thanks everyone for not minding the upgrades and changes that have been put in and the ones that will be coming in the future.


Thanks Proto :)

Become a patron.


sooo the garage is like a photo album?
But better.

Try to add your mods now, shouldn't have to be.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

^ thanks alot works perfect now.

PS: You JDM guys better love me, im plugging in everything since im so bored!


EDIT: Proto "VIS" has been submitted. An Administrator will approve or reject the submission shortly.

Seems like i can add whatever to PRODUCT, and for MANUFACTURER as to still be aproved

[Proto]

Well I'll keep it like that so we don't have any bogus entries.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

ok cool =), lol your going to hate me in 4 mins

[QnzMostWanted]

pretty gay on having to be approved for manufacturers, by the time its approved i probably forgot i was working on entering things in teh garage...

[Proto]

I made it so it doesn't require approval.

[QnzMostWanted]

sweet!

[brad995]

So do you need a certain post count to add a car to the garage? It says I don't have sufficient privileges. I know I'm kinda new, but I would like to add my car to the garage:).

[Proto]

you must gain TGC Member status first. Enjoy.

[4-G-rim]

On adding modifications..the letter "E" has a "page load error" and will not load any of the options for anything associated with the letter E.

[Proto]

The letter E should of been fixed with the software upgrade recently.

[csj]

you must gain TGC Member status first. Enjoy.

Does that happen automatically based on number of posts, or is there some other form of black magic involved? :)

[spardavr4]

Uhh, I may be blind but I think the Garage link disappeared from the top of the page.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

it's under community

[Proto]

Does that happen automatically based on number of posts, or is there some other form of black magic involved? :)

Automatically based on number of posts.

[SleekGTZ]

Don't know why I couldn't add an image. I browse for my local image, it's 600kb, 800x600 resolution, and then when I click on the "Add Image" button, nothing happens. I tried it on another machine and got the same results.

[Proto]

PM me a link to the photo. I've tried uploading several photos with success.

[SleekGTZ]

pm sent. thanks!

[BODOGG]

It wont let me add pic 832 X 618 171KB JPEG. Should it work for this size pic, and format or do I need a different camera or something? Anybody know i'm not to good when it comes to this computer stuff. Thanks

[Proto]

Since the upgrade there has been a problem with uploading images. I'm going to rebuild the database and hope this fixes it.

[nyjets985]

proto .. sinceyour rebuilding the database did this take off the garage function temp. im trying to find it but just cant seem tooo mayb im not loking right

[Proto]

click community then garage.

[nyjets985]

ok thanks now i see it i swear it wasnt ther a min ago

[csj]

Proto, could you add "4G63 2.0l SOHC" as an engine type, please?

Cheers!

[Proto]

Added.

[Proto]

Added all galant trim models to the garage.

[csj]

Added.

Thanks! :)

With regard to the US trim levels, could you add the world-spec ones as well?

For Norway (and possibly also the rest of Europe), they are (ascending trim order):

04/1997-08/2000:
GLX
GLS
GLSi

09/2000-12/2003:
Comfort
Elegance
Sport
Avance

The trim levels were the same in station wagons or sedans.

[Proto]

Ok thanks. I'll add them in soon, working on another project at the moment.

[csj]

Oh, I forgot.. These are for 8G models. Previous generations of Galants had "GL", "GLi" and "GLXi" trim levels as well.

[Proto]

What are the major ones? We don't have a lot of users from others countries at the moment but I'd like to put some into the garage.

[csj]

GLX, GLS, GLSi and Comfort, Elegance, Sport and Avance would probably suffice. If there are anyone with the GL or GLi trims, I'm sure they'll come forward. :)

[mko]

when a new modification is added, there are two pictures available for uploading. I have uploaded for almost every modification, but whne i click on the it in the list where all mods are listed, there are no pics.

[starh4x]

what about VRG trim?
and 1.8 4g93 GDI ?

garage is sweet!

[4g63lover]

I'm having trouble adding pictures in my garage. whats going on?

[csj]

what about VRG trim?
and 1.8 4g93 GDI ?

garage is sweet!

GLX/GLS/GLSi are the equivalents of VRG trim, afaik.

[Proto]

when a new modification is added, there are two pictures available for uploading. I have uploaded for almost every modification, but whne i click on the it in the list where all mods are listed, there are no pics.

Regular members are allowed up to 15 images total in their garage, the maximum for each is:
- 5 for the car
- 1 per mod
- 1 per laptime
- 1 per timeslip
- 1 per dynorun

However you break up those 15 is up to you.


I'm having trouble adding pictures in my garage. whats going on?

I fixed the problems with uploading pictures. If you have reached you maximum allowed, it won't allow you to upload anymore. I don't think it returns an error message though. See my reply above.


what about VRG trim?
and 1.8 4g93 GDI ?

GLX/GLS/GLSi are the equivalents of VRG trim, afaik.

Since these two are about the same I'll do GLX/VRG in one trim level. If someone could give which trims are equivalent to each other I'd appreciate it.


GLX, GLS, GLSi and Comfort, Elegance, Sport and Avance would probably suffice. If there are anyone with the GL or GLi trims, I'm sure they'll come forward. :)

See above reply.

[mtgraves2005]

I'm a new member. When I tried to post some pics in the garage of my vehicle, it says I have no access or not priveleged. When will I be able to add my vehicle to the garage?

[brad995]

I'm also having problems uploading an image to the garage. I select the image to upload and then click upload. It then brings me back to my vehicle without any image being added.

[Proto]

NEWBIES can't create garages and brad you may have been over the file size or image size limit

EDIT: You can also view thumbnails of members vehicles when you use the "Browse Garage" option long as they have photo(s) uploaded.

[sponcar]

it is a nice job on the tgc page but how do i add some pics cuz its never appear after to uplad..... question: could be cuz im not able to put some pics?!?!?!?

[Proto]

Read above post. Pics must be under 800 by 600 pixels and under 2048KB in size. I have put in a feature request to have the pictures automatically resized but I don't know if the developer will code it in.

[coreyfan666]

do i have to be a member for a certain amount of time before i can have one?

[BGR]

8G - Galant ES V6 has been added.

[es_fact]

NEWBIES can't create garages

so... how many post do i eventually need to get in order to get my car up on the site??

[Proto]

Sorry es fact but I missed your post. You need 50 which you have so enjoy.

On another note.. the garage images showing on the homepage is fixed. A certain turbo 8G owner uploaded an interior picture and corrupted the database for showing images.

[mko]

What happened to the "Not listed" under manufacturers ans products list?

[Proto]

The developer may have removed it, you can add manufacturers yourself.

[mko]

right, but I wanted to add my new non cruise control throttle cable i bought today, and i cant

[qnz]

the direct link code for the users garage doenst work.

[qnz]

can we do a search by $ amount spent? can we add the top 5 most expensive cars again

[Proto]

right, but I wanted to add my new non cruise control throttle cable i bought today, and i cant
Put it under custom.


the direct link code for the users garage doenst work.
This is a known bug in the new software release, developer is working on it.


can we do a search by $ amount spent? can we add the top 5 most expensive cars again
I would assume the developer removed it but I'll check.

[paflow]

I try to update my Garage but tells me that "You have reached the maximum amount of vehicles allowed." and I have not added a single one.

[Proto]

You are a newb. Under 50 posts and 45 days you can't make one.

[Asierra_999]

What happened to my mod pics!? Thx

[qnz]

i tried to add a picture and it gave me the error, Image could not be moved

[IceDouTGaLanT]

YES!!! its not only me then!! i been having the same issue....

[Proto]

Think it was a permissions problem, try it now and reply back.

[qnz]

works!

[qnz]

i cant vote on rides

"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."

[Proto]

Fixed.

[WarmAndSCSI]

Yep, I get the same when I go to add an image.


vBulletin Message

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

I'll look at an HTTP trace real quick to see if it's anything obvious.

[Galanttuner10]

i cant resize the pics i have no matter wut i do it wont accept it

[Proto]

I updated the software last night and the security token problems are due to vBa integration with the garage. I'll go through and fix the problems in a little bit.

[WarmAndSCSI]

Cool, at least it wasn't something stupidly hard to figure out.

[Galanttuner10]

my issue is i cant get the pics to resize and when i do it still wont take them so can someone help me out

[kglenn]

everytime I try to upload my car to the garage it says you've reached a maximum amount of vehicles allowed and I haven't uploaded any.

[Proto]

All the problems are fixed that I know of.

[E_Emerson88]

Registered users can add:
2 vehicles, 5 pics per vehicle, 0 pics per mod

is this still the rules? i cant add mod pictures??

[mko]

Thank you for bringing back the "Not Listed" feature under the modification and manufacturer lists

[WarmAndSCSI]

You guys need to disable the rating system in the garage or moderate the ratings people give. Not saying anything more.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

^ you can only vote one time for each car, so what you see is what people voted for.

[WarmAndSCSI]

^ you can only vote one time for each car, so what you see is what people voted for.

I understand that, but a "1" rating on my car was left by some child and that's just stupid. Do unto others etc... had the same fucking problem on GF with the Garage.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

yeah, i think we all got 1 ratings people hate, let them who cares, you know what you built. Im sure your rating going to go up, you just rejoined so people got many open votes on your car left.

[WarmAndSCSI]

yeah, i think we all got 1 ratings people hate, let them who cares, you know what you built. Im sure your rating going to go up, you just rejoined so people got many open votes on your car left.

Well I'd rather just have the ratings on my car disabled. People tend to leave 1 ratings more willingly than they will honest ratings. People who own Galants also tend to be 5.

[mko]

"New Modification" Button in the GArage doesnt work

[silver01g]

^yea why is that? i finally want to get my garage going and i cant work on it,

[mko]

No one is paying attention to this thread?

[silver01g]

nope

[qnz]

we are woking on the solution

[silver01g]

O OK sorry we just didnt get a reply so we didnt know what was going on.

[polishmafia]

Relax guys. Its not the end of the world if the garage isn't working. Its close, but its not the end of the world. ;)

[silver01g]

yea but like others its a pain to do, and when your up and ready to do it, you want to get it done, but no big deal just let use know when its up and going again.

[Galant306m]

there is couple things that need to be changed in the php file ive been trying but have had no luck fixing it.

[Proto]

What I would suggest is figure out which exact php file executes the code for adding a modification then venture from there.

[Galant306m]

Yea we got a email from vb and a couple values are messed up in the cndconfig.php file

[bsilver23]

i am still a newbie, when does that status change into member so i can add my ride to the garage?

[blue8g]

50 posts i think

[bsilver23]

ok well i am close

[Galant306m]

garage is down for a little bit we are currently updating the whole garage, and we are currently having problems with it.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

lol...damit i hate starting that shit over, takes to long

[Galant306m]

You wont have too i just have to get it to update which is not working at the moment. All the cars are saved already so they will still be there when we get it back up. I have to go to sleep so ill finish it tomorrow. For some reason it does not like the xml files that we got from cnd. We where at version 1.14 they are now at version 2.08 so it might be completely different when its back up idk yet tough.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

You rock dude!!!

[VegasMatt]

Yeah this is the updated version then what we had before so hopefully the kinks are all worked out. Worse thing is that we delete the old garage and put the new one in and you will have to redo it. Which I know sucks but hopefully this will be the last time. (If we have to go down that route.)

[Galant306m]

Alright the garage is back up and running i had to tare it down and redo it im sorry it just would not take the update file. The format has changed a bit from what it was at before. Play with it a little bit and let me know if there are any bugs. You will have to re upload your photos though im sorry about the problems we had but it is nice to have the garage up and running the most current version with all the attributes working properly.

[Galant306m]

One last note please try and follow the image size requirements any failed uploads get saved in a back up file and when i went to update it, it tried to re upload all the failed uploads lol and Matt got like 60 some emails because of this.

[spardavr4]

spardavr4, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Am I doing it wrong?

[Galant306m]

lol hold on.

[spardavr4]

lmao at your rep XD

[Galant306m]

hahaha thanks. And i dont see why you cant view it. all permissions are right, hmm i might have to restart the site.

[spardavr4]

Hmm. Well I'm going into the little drop down menu so I can add an image or add a modification and that still keeps popping up. Maybe I'm just retarded or something.

Edit: Oh well, I'll check it out tomorrow morning. I have to wake up early so yeah, good luck if there is actually anything wrong.

[Galant306m]

can a non mod admin or noob try adding a modification or vehicle image?

[polishmafia]

I'm a noob, I can't help you out. :(

[blue8g]

i can't edit my vehicle

[Galant306m]

lies

[blue8g]

super duper serial

[Galant306m]

call me and tell me what its doing

[blue8g]

^fails

[qnz]

this is what i see

http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa170/qnzaaron/Capture-1.jpg

[Galant306m]

the garage is working fine for me which is confusing the crap out of me cause all of the permissions are good, idk what the problem with it now is.

[qnz]

everythign seems to be backwards. like, its showing the least modified cars and the least hp cars, etc

[qnz]

i tried to add a modification. it says it is pending administrator approval. :(

[Galant306m]

i seen that too lol.

[Galant306m]

hmm i can add them lol

i think we are good as long as i can add all my stuff. hahah. im still working on it it some and going through the trouble shooting guide.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

everythign seems to be backwards. like, its showing the least modified cars and the least hp cars, etc

yup i see the same thing..most mod'd cars have 1 modification lol

[Galant306m]

someone try to add a image please there was a setting i changed.

[Galant306m]

changed a couple more settings i need feed back from someone please.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

top rated, most viewed, most modified are all wrong along with newest vechicles add'd. Everything is out of order, dont know why lol

[Galant306m]

yea i havent messed with that yet i was just trying to make it so people can actually add images and vehicles lol check that first. if you can upload one then delete the vehicle because it will be all messed up and redo it.

[Galant306m]

ordering problem solved but i still dont know if anyone can add a image or mod or vehicle.

[spardavr4]

ordering problem solved but i still dont know if anyone can add a image or mod or vehicle.

Just checked it out and it brought me to the add mod page so that seems to be working now. wooo!

[SPD_FRK]

Garage seems to be working perfectly for me. The new layout was a little tricky at first but its GREAT to have the feature back here

[VegasMatt]

I had 52 emails this morning stating there was a database error with the garage. :)

[qnz]

good job mitch

[Galant306m]

I had 52 emails this morning stating there was a database error with the garage. :)

we should change that lol make it go to a tgc email or something, I can set up [email protected] matt if you want and give the password to the admins if you want so you dont get all the error messages in your email.

[Proto]

Check the permissions on the garage attach folder (think that's the one), they should be 777. That will allow people to upload images properly.

[VegasMatt]

Trying to remember why we are upgrading the garage again...oh yeah now I remember.

[spardavr4]

Hmm, I seem to be having problems with pictures. I can upload 10 pictures, but there seems to be 4 empty slots that just say view image and if you click on it, it just starts loading nothing.

Also, how do you choose one of those pictures as your main picture to show up on the garage main page? I don't see an option anywhere.

[spardavr4]

Doesn't even allow the option for deleting a photo. I think I may be retarded and just can't find the option, since everyone else on the garage seems to have figured out how to choose a picture to show up as their thumbnail.

[dknight3]

am i an admin or somthing?
why do i have the ability to change the owner of any car?

LOL

[Galant306m]

no you cant

[7gvr4]

hey guys cant upload photos to the garage just comes up with

Error: Image could not be moved

[Voodoo]

hey guys cant upload photos to the garage just comes up with

This problem should be fixed now. Please feel free to test it out and let us know if you have any problems with it. Thanks

[7gvr4]

cheers guys, working sweet
