Log files are files created by the application. They contain in them data relevant to the programs execution and have many uses. In terms of this profiler, they are used to time the length between rendering passes. However they can also be used by the programmer to display internal program information, like what a variable contains - things the programmer cannot see during run time.

The BES Application Framework outputs a log file for every execution, overwriting the previous log file. If you want to save your log file, be sure to move it to another folder before restarting the application. Every log file is named error_log.txt and is located in the same folder as the application executable.

This profiler can only extract the proper data from log files that are configured properly, meaning that the application outputted the proper data for the profiler to read. In order to make the application output this data, be sure to replace the file log.cfg in your application's /data folder with the file log.profile, located in the same folder as the application executable. Back up the original log.cfg and then change the extension of log.profile to .cfg

NOTE: If you do not see log.profile in your main folder, then you don't have a test release of the application
