Hello.
The following:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3544050/SimDash.1.3.4.Beta.zip
it the link for the download of SimDash 1.3.4 beta.
The content of the ZIP file must be extracted into a new folder and double click SimDash.exe to start the application.
New features in this version:
- The plugin for the Rev Burner for speedometers has been updated to support the speedometers that require a signal with higher frequency.
- F1 2011 is supported. the game must be configured like F1 2010. Follow the same instructions.
- In the Pro Shift configuration screen it is possible to define two condition for which a LED is switched on.
- The IRacing plugin supports the new API. the good thing about the new API is that more clients can connect at the same time (so no more need of the IWrap proxy) and more data is exported. this is the data that is available now:
- Rpm
- Rpm expressed in %
- Gear position
- Speed
- Water temperature
- Oil temperature
- Oil pressure
- Brake, throttle and clutch positions
- Fuel quantity
- Fuel quantity expressed in %
- Lap number
- Position in race
- Current lap time
- Last lap time
- Best lap time
- Oil warning
- Water temperature warning
- Rev limiter warning
- Speed limiter
- Fuel pressure warning
- Engine stalled warning
- Black, white, green, yellow, blue and red flags
Everything seems to work ok. I particularly like the rev limiter warning light.
What I think need to be tested more carefully, is the time of the current lap and lap number. In particular they should be tested during a race and please let me know if they don't work correctly.
Please let me know if you find anything wrong and I will fix it before next final release if out.
Thanks

Hi Christiano
I've tried the beta and this is what i have encounter,
1- When you minimize it does not go in the aplication that is running in the start menu bar at the bottom it stay minimize just like any open aplication, beta version was installed.
2- I tried upgrading to get the 4 switch working, after the initial startup, was not able to go in boot mode other than by restarting my computer with the switch (prog) on and uplug it during reboot of my machine.
3- Did the upgrade and no matter what i tried it was not detecte.
4- Just to make sure i went back to 1.3.3 with the 4 switch everything work perfectly again.

Hello.
Thank you for testing.
If you enable logging in SimDash, a file with name ErrorLog.txt is created in the SimDash folder. this file will contain the description of everything SimDash does and also the reason the Pro Shift is not detected. To enable loggin, you have to edit the file SimDash.exe.config and change this line:
<level value="ERROR"/>
in:
<level value="ALL"/>
Then start SimDash, connect the Pro Shift, close SimDash.
If you could send me the created ErrorLog.txt file, that would be very useful.
Thank you for your help.

Hello.
Thank you for sending the log file.
But what was the situation with SimDash when you created the file? because from what I can read all the plugins for the simulators and devices were successfully loaded and the rev burner and Pro Shift were properly detected and the green light displayed.
did you get the same thing?
if you get something different a screenshot would be useful.
thank you.

Thanks sooo much Cristiano!!!
The new simdata program has give new life to my speed-o-meter. It now reaches its full mph.

BUT I cannot get it to go over 160mph with X-SIM!!!

that's because the xsim plugin must be updated too.
I have added it to my TODOs list.

Thanks so much Cristiano. That and I'll buy rev burner for water temperature and fuel gauge when you've released it.

Start SimDash and IRacing (in a window, no fullscreen). In SimDash select View->Data in the menu to see all the values read from the simulator.
thanks

Hi Christiano
Sorry for the delay in result, i have completly forget about the test of the proshift before leaving the event. I will join another race later and let you know.
Is there any other difference between 1.3.3 and 1.3.4. The problem i still have is when i try to run VHR / rFactor i can not get my pedal work with 1.3.4. (i'm using Leo Bodnar USB Load Cell Interface BU0836-LC)
1-I have deleted everything in relation with ProShift
2-Try back my pedal, working ok
3-Install back 1.3.3
4-Try back my pedal, working ok
5-I have deleted everything in relation with ProShift
6-Install back 1.3.4
7-Try back my pedal, not working with vhr / rFactor. VHR does not see my pedal.
It is related that for sure but how or why?
Thank 8)

It seems the position is always 0. did it stay 0 all the time?
Can I ask you one more favour please?
In the next race can you use this version of SimDash:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3544050/SimDash.1.3.4.Beta3.zip
the difference with this version is it creates a log file with a lot of information on what it is doing. I need this to investigate why the position stays 0 and what the problem with the pedals is.
when you have finisched racing, you will find a file with name ErrorLog.txt in the SimDash folder. that's what I need.
I would do it myself but I can race and I want to ruin the race of somebody else in IRacing.
Thanks

Hi,
i use simscreen in race07.
BUG!!!
the oil and water temps are displayed incorrect as text field. the value is always to low. If i choose bar to display the value it is displayed correct.
Perhaps you can fix it.
THX Mike
P.S. is it possible to display the time difference between the actual and the best lap, like in real f1 cars (+/- 0.34).
GREaT WORK, HARDWARE

Hello.
Can you post a design for the SimScreen where the temperature is not displayed correctly please?
otherwise it is all a bit generic and I don't know what to do.
the time difference is not available at the moment but I want to add it in the future, at least for the simulators that can support it.
thanks
Cristiano

I checked it twice. after reinstalling the 1.34beta, the values are displayed correct. So everything is allright for me for now ;).
