App Offical release of Crew chief version 4 - auto updating and shiny

sorry cross posted there...

let me have a look, just a mo

 

i need to rewrite that don't I - it's bollocks.

The app is processing the 'latest current' flag, it queues a message for this flag, then if the flag value changes it queues the message for the new value. It keeps track of when it last played a flag message so it doesn't spam messages when the flag value bounces.

So you *could* send "blue", then short time later send "yellow". The app will say "blue flag", then "yellow flag". If you then sent the flag back to "blue" (you pass the accident) the app won't read "blue flag" again for some time (20 or 30 seconds, IIRC).

 

I think the app will use the "unknown race" tyre type and "iron race" brake type if you don't send any car class data - these use thresholds appropriate for something like a GT3 race car (iron brakes, racing slicks)

The app doesn't use fuel capacity, oil pressure or fuel pressure

 

nice work

 

Fcking awesome work dude, well done

 

looks fine, no conflicts on merge so it's now in the main branch. I'll cut and release a new build when I get back from work

 

4.3.0.0 is now up and should auto-update. Don't forget to put the .dll in the magic folder if you want to test it

Download 'rFactorSharedMemoryMap.dll' from https://github.com/dallongo/rFactorSharedMemoryMap/releases/latest and place it in the sim's Plugin folder, then select 'rFactor' in Crew Chief.

 

Big thanks again for Mr. B and gongo! I just did a quick test with the Automobilista and it worked marvelously! CrewChief+AMS+CART+Jacarepagua Oval=Full of Win!

I was wondering if this could be easily ported to rFactor 2 also?

 

Cool, but don't give me any credit, all I did was press 'merge' on pull request

 

The use of uncompressed wavs for the message sounds is mostly down to my lack of time to revisit it - c# default sound player only supports wav but it should be easy enough to swap it, and also to allow the audio output device to be selected.

Exciting times

 

Sorry, but i must ask for ams. Dont work at the moment. I write the /../ams.exe in the rf1 start line (properties) Then i download and update all the soundpacks, its ok, restart and start the app, i hear the check sound and start ams. But dont work. Any ideas ?

 

What are the chances of this ever working in iRacing? :-/ I've started to enjoy it on my 3rd attempt but the spotter sounds awful! I'm missing Jim telling me I'm a twat strangely.

 

WOW. !!! Thats freaking amazing !!! It works and it feels so real and alive. What a push for an already good game like ams.
Thank u very much !!!

Soo coool.

 

GREAT!

 

I agree!

 

Tested and approuved. Nice one! Great job !

It's so good to hear your voice in AMS Jim


One little thing: seems that the launch parameter to automatically select witch game mode you want to run the app doesn't work anymore.
I can't make it select Raceroom of rfactor at launch, have to do it manually, it kept the last last one.

 

I actually do use the auto launch, have been for a little while now. Because I only launch crewchief for RaceRoom. So might as well I figured. Just downloading the latest update now though

 

I can't blieve that RD policy First, they lock down the thread where Mr. B announced the AMS compatibility that gongo provided for us on the basis of.... what exactly? That it is not hosted on their site

Then they decide to delete completely Mr. B's thread where he criticised the policy. Wow. I'm glad that I haven't paid a single dime for a premium membership on that site. I was going to, but not anymore.

 

Petty isn't it. And they're pretty obnoxious about it too (or perhaps I'm paranoid).

I'll merge gongos latest changes this afternoon and cut a new release

 

Would it be possible to get personalization addon to work in AMS version?
