JEplus - painful transition from rvi to rvx

Hello there, in order to start using jEPlus v1.6 I understand I need to move from rvi to rvx for collecting results.

I am a bit confused on how to do this, as well as on some apparently unwanted consequences.

My rvi file, called "A0_v4.rvi" had the following content:

eplusout.eso
eplusout.csv
Site Outdoor Air Drybulb Temperature
Zone Air Temperature
Zone Operative Temperature
Zone Air Relative Humidity
Zone Exterior Windows Total Transmitted Beam Solar Radiation Rate
Zone Exterior Windows Total Transmitted Beam Solar Radiation Rate
Interior Windows Total Transmitted Beam Solar Radiation Rate
0
!-sqlite
! Output file name; Column headers; SQL command
constructions; botti; SELECT * FROM Constructions   
!-end sqlite

I have addedd an rvx "A0_v4.rvx" file as follows:

{
    "notes" : "First RVX test",

    "rvis" : [ 
        { 
            "fileName" : "A0_v4.rvi",
            "tableName" : "BottiRVXResults"
        }
    ],
    "csvs" : [
        {...
        }
    ]
}

As a result of that, the "SimResults.csv" file is not generated any more, plus all simulations folder names would change from a parametername_parametervalue structure (i.e. "EP_G-T_0-W_0-CH_0-WWR_0-X0_0-Z0_0-X2_0-Z2_0") to an incremental number kind-of-name (i.e. "EP_G000000000,1,2" etc).

Can you please advise how I should fix this?

Thanks, Anddrea
