In my opinion, SNAP CAP PRO is actually not that bad of a handicapping software for the beginner to intermediate player. It states in the ad that SNAP CAP PRO uses the $1 BRIS data files in this software. One also has the option of using the less expensive 50 cent TSN data files, which can be adapted for use in SNAP CAP PRO as well. With the TSN data files, you just won't get any power, turf or mud ratings. If you can do without those three ratings, you can save a lot of money on data files over the long run. For that matter, if one subscribes to the TSN ADVANTAGE PLAN that uses PRO CAPS data files, those files can be adapted as well for use in SNAP CAP PRO.

If anyone is interested, send me a PM, and I can give you more info and a selection of screenshots if you like. If you like what you see, I have an original copy of SNAP CAP PRO that I'd be willing to sell for a 40 % discount off the price that QUICKPLAYHORSERACINGSOFTWARE.COM wants.

I took a look at the software on the site after reading the original post. Just note that it's not VISTA compatible (FYI).

You can also use the Procaps files, which have the BRIS Power ratings.

For software that only uses BRIS files, you can get a utility called "Extension Renamer" (Google it, and the Download.com link will be the first hit on the page) which will mass-rename the *.eg or *.pcs TSN files to the BRIS *.drf file. Note that this won't copy the file, it will replace the extension, so if you have software which uses the TSN file extensions, you may want to copy the TSN files to another folder before renaming them.

Also note that BRIS uses different speed ratings (and possibly pace ratings, as well) than TSN does. It's generally thought that the BRIS ratings are better than the TSN ones, so if your program uses these ratings, you may sacrifice some quality for the decrease in price. Also, there are various other fields in the BRIS files that are blank or zero in one or both of the TSN files. If your program uses such ratings, it might not work properly with the TSN files. You might want to compare the printout of the BRIS vs TSN vs Procaps files to see if there's a difference.

I know this might sound like a Billy Mays commercial, but here goes:

If anyone wants to buy an original copy of SNAP CAP PRO handicapping software and they order by midnight today M.S.T., plus pay for it by PAY PAL, I'll reduce the price by another 10 %. I only have one original copy for sale.

So, for a limited time only, you can get SNAP CAP PRO from me, for 1/2 of the price that www.quickplayhorseracingsoftware.com (http://www.quickplayhorseracingsoftware.com/) is asking. Their price is $195.00 U.S. I'm only going offer this special for a limited time only for $97.00 U.S. and I'll pay the postage. If interested, send me a PM.


Thanks,

Down Loaded Files

[headhawg]

No Thanks
I do not work well with deadlines.So. A user with 9 total posts starts a thread about it, then gets a great offer to purchase at a discount, and then says no.

Well, ok then.

[Tilenny]

Well If you beleive it is such a good offer, Why don't you buy it.

[Tilenny]

From my posts. How did you determine that I was looking to buy the Snap Cap
program. I beleive I was asking for information and it was provided by Wes.

I think you jumped in too soon.

All you need is a BATCH file and you can name it anything you want. I made my own :copy ???????.PCS ???????.DRF
del ???????.PCS
put in the folder with your pcs files, double click on it and it will change all files with the PCS extension at one time. Quick and easy.

You got the information you asked for, and then you came back and asked to trade for Snap Capper. Since then, you've acted like a jerk more than once.

Do you still have the software Snap Cap Pro for sale?

I sent you a pm if you are interested in Snap Cap.
