This year OO.cup 2011 used OEvent. It's been pretty good test for what OEvent can do, since OO.cup is large 5 day competition. I did spot small problems, all of which are now fixed and released as version 4.30. Also, I got some feature requests which I implemented. Here's what's new in this release:
  • In results and split times reports you can now show only N competitors. This is useful for printing result lists for prize giving ceremony.
  • You can now have custom reports by clubs. Previously you could only have custom reports by competitors.
  • New report: Can we have prize giving ceremony?
  • In labels design you can add images.
  • Voided legs. In case you had problems with a control, you can void legs where this control has been used.
  • Set readout ID. You can manually set chip readout for competitor. This is usefull when two competitors switched their chips. Now you can switch their readouts easily.
  • When unknown chip is read, you can now assign this chip to a competitor for this stage only or for all following stages.
  • Performance improvements.
  • Other small enhancements.
  • Many small bug fixes.

OEvent 4.12 has been released. List of new features:
  • Live results. OEvent now has built in HTTP server, so that competitors can track live results using their smartphones or computers (laptop, netbook). For tracking results in competition area, you (or competitors) don't need internet connection. If you want live results to be available accross planet, then you do need internet connection.
  • Chip management - you can now add, edit and remove controls for competitors' chip readouts. All this happens in nondestructive way, which means you can always revert to original readout.
  • Improved display of competitor's punches. Now it's easier to check what has been mispucnhed.
  • Support for unsynchronized controls. If time in one or more of your controls is not synchronized, you can mark such controls and split times will not be displayed for those controls.
  • You can now delete split times for competitors.
  • Performance improvements in "Start times organization" dialog.
  • Several bug fixes.
