Min-max values being ignored

For some reason, DirectRT seems to be ignoring the minmax values in my GNAT and IAT style files--do you know why this would be? It was working fine and now no matter what values I use, they are ignored.

We modifed some code in Nov, 2005 that may be interfering with DirectRT's ability to read the min-max values. For more info, see:

Do you happen to have version somewhere between 2006.1.12 and 2006.1.15? If so, this is very likely the problem and it is now fixed in the currently posted install package or you can just replace the single file:

c:\directrt\executedrt.exe

with this updated version--just download it, unzip it and use it to replace the older version:

[editors note: the following updated link allows you to download the final release of v2006. For more recent versions, see http://www.empirisoft.com/download.aspx]

If you get a chance to try that, please let me know how it goes in terms of helping to resolve the min-max related timing issues.

Best,

Thanks.....the replacement .exe file worked like a charm.

Hello,

I have a question about DirectRT. I am trying to set the minmax values so that participants skip to the next trial after 45s. I've tried setting it at: "0-45000!", "1-45000!", "0-45000!!", and a few other values.

The link to the .zip file in this thread doesn't work.

Thanks!

Hm. What version of the software are you running? You may be able to fix this problem by simply reinstalling with a more recent release of the version you have.

I'm having trouble getting this go-no-go task to continue after no response. Each trial needs to be a fixed total of 2250ms (the stimulus is presented for 750ms with an extra 1500ms for responding). The participants are allowed to respond using the spacebar at any point during the trial's 2250ms.
