Title: F1 2016 & Pro Race - Position error
Post by: kmw on September 18, 2017, 03:59:03 pm

Hi Cristiano,
just wanted to report, don't know if you or anyone else has seen this error, but I am noticing that in F1 2016, career mode, the 'position' on my ProRace is always out by one place. (I am using SimDash 16)

I don't know if that is something that can be fixed in Simdash or an error in the data output of the game?

So for example, if the game says I am in position 5, then the ProRace display tells me I am in position 4. (I think it's that way round. Anyway it is always out by one).

Hello.
It is the simulator that sends incorrect data.
I have updated the F1 2016 plugin. In the configuration screen you can adjust the race position, if it is wrong.

The change will be included in the next version of SimDash, but if you want to test it before, it is here:

Yep, position is now correct, thank you very much for adding this.

I hate to add a further report, maybe this data is also reported wrongly by the game, but I also noticed some errors in the lap times that are being displayed. I can't see a particular pattern except to say that the 'last lap' display is always different to the on screen times, usually only by a small amount, less than a tenth; and 'best lap' is not showing on the ProRace at all (noticed this in practice, maybe it only appears during a race?).

Hi Christiano,

I use F1 2016 (Codemasters Steam Version).
When I race against AI offline my position is not correct on the SimScreen. For example when 4 cars are ahead of me the SimScreen tells me I am in 4th position but it should show me 5th position.

I use the latest version of SimDash.

Can you help me?

Hello.
The configuration screen of the F1 2016 plugin in SimDash, gives you the option to adjust the position.
