Symprojects stuff and iRacedash doesn't work together

[zxmika]

Hi,

I have revburner for tachometer, SPI-D and GI MAX. Lately I bought iRacedash app (http://www.iracedash.com/) for iPhone, I wish to use it for fuel and tyres in iRacing but they don't seem to work together. When I connect to iRacedash, the Simdash freezes. Is it even possible to make them work together at the same time? Is it the iRacing API or what is wrong?

HEllo.

Do you have the latest version of SimDash? (1.3.5)

Because they should work together. The new IRacing's API supports multiple clients.

That's what I thought too but they don't. And yes, I have the latest version of SimDash. Any suggestions what I could try to do?

It's not a suggestion to make things work but maybe to find where the problem is.
I would try to download another application that uses the IRacing API, for example ISpeed.

Run ISpeed with IRaceDash and then SimDash with IRacingDash.
Does ISpeed work fine?

Thanks
Cristiano

I did some testing:
iSpeed and iRaceDash worked fine together and so did iSpeed and SimDash.
SimDash and iRaceDash might sometimes work a while, usually 1-5 minutes but once they worked about 45 minutes, but always at some point SimDash freezes and GI Max, tachometer and SPI-D are stuck in what they were showing at the time. When that happens, I have to reboot to make SimDash work again even alone. I tried to kill the process from taskmanager but it won't open again until reboot.

Thank you.
I will check in the IRacing plugin in SimDash if I am doing some errors.

I will keep you updated.

Thanks Cristiano, but it seems to work now! I changed the port iRaceDash server uses, default was 2047 and I changed it to 2048 and they have worked flawlessly couple of hours now.
I keep you updated what happens in the future, thanks for your help!
