Symprojects API?

[bredita]

Hi,

I want to make a shift indicator (GI Max flashing) with different shift points for each car/each gear, for use in iRacing.
I understand this is a lot of work to add to the simdash application, and I would be happy to write my own little tool that does this.
Is there a way I can make the GI Max flash - from my own application?

(I also have the pro shift and the SPI-D and it would also be interesting to be able to switch on an LED on the pro shift or the SPI-D's shift light from my own app).

what language do you use to write your software?

[bredita]

Any language that can speak with the iracing api would be good.
The only iracing api thing I have played with was written in C# but what I am planning to do is not too complicated so I am sure I can adapt to any language.

Hi bredita,
This sounds great. Keep us updated on this.
I'm about to switch from the SLI-Pro to the Pro-Race display, and this would be very useful.

I'm not sure if this will help, but Naoya in the iRacing forums has messed with iRacing shift points quite a bit, he might be able to help:

In that case I suggest to keep using C# because it's the language I have been using and it will be easier for me to send you an example.

I am going to create a test project for you, maybe tomorrow, that you can use to interact with the GI Max.

Great,

That will be very interesting - I look forward to trying it
