Been fiddling with this for hours and can't seem to get the right parameters. I'm currently using the -l q3a-xp -p xp_version 200 savestate 1 on the vsp webpage which works fine, but I'd rather run a cron job to update the stats automatically. Any help appreciated.

Edit inner parameters how? "rename to vsp-update" with no extension? Where to put vsp-update?

Re: Running stats as a cron job

Got it working with a batch file, then using Z-Cron to update the stats ever hour.
C:\xampp\php\php.exe -f "yourdirectoryhere\vsp.php" -- -l q3a -p savestate 1 "yourdirectoryhere\nameofyourserverlog"
