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

hi thx again fr this wonderfull app. I can't drive anymore without it
is it possible to have a driver's names update ? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fSq6UazCDspLFC2yWm859jvQrlNOgVTZ8isIgb1-JXI/edit#gid=0
Thx

 

Yes, I have a bit of a backlog. I will do it, just not sure when - real life is being a bit of a ball ache atm

 

I'm looking to batch launch a few things for each sim I play, does CrewChief have any startup parameters? I would need to launch the CrewChief executable, select a game profile, and start CC ("Start Application"). Launching the executable is the easy part but doesn't help much if I have to select a game profile and click the start button manually.

 

Yeah, cc can be launched in a game mode with a start-up parameter and it can launch the game for you and it can start itself automatically. I'll have to check the start up parameter values (it's probably RACEROOM or R3E, AUTOMOBILISTA, RF1, PCARS_64BIT and ASSETTO_64BIT or something like that). The other options are all in the properties screen

 

righty, the launch parameters are

RACE_ROOM, PCARS_64BIT, PCARS_32BIT, PCARS_NETWORK, RF1, ASSETTO_64BIT, ASSETTO_32BIT

add one of these to you CC shortcut and it'll set that game mode.

Select "run_immediately" in the properties screen so you don't need to press the 'start application' button. If you want CC to launch the game, select the appropriate launch_[game name] option and make sure the [game name]_launch_exe and [game name]_launch_params are set properly.

It's a bit of faffing but it does work

 

Thanks @mr_belowski, I'll give you're suggestions a try.

 

I have been having a few problems with crew chief recently giving me updates of the drivers in front but giving me the wrong names compared to who actually is in front of me. Is anyone else having this problem?

 

Do you have duplicate driver names in the race?

 

no I don't. It was doing it with adac 14 and driver swap was on

 

hmm... i have no idea what's going on then. The Raceroom code has changed very little in the last few months so it's unlikely to be a new bug

 

Had a go at f3 and dtm 15 tonight and it was fine. I will let you know if it happens again.

 

Hello,

Is it or could it be possible to start automatcally the engineer at the launch of the application, I think it would be cool, what do you think?

I don't know if the suggestion has already been made

 

So, with Studio 397 apparently ahead of schedule on DX11 and hard at work on VR, any chance of a rF2 plugin in the works? I know Gongo was considering it but I wouldn't blame the guy for prioritizing his work on the AMS spotter.

 

the RF2 version is in progress but Vytautas (The Iron Wolf) is implementing the RF2 'plugin' .dll to get data from the game, so I can't really comment on the progress yet (other than to say that it's in progress). When the plugin is done I'll be working with Vytautas to get the Crew Chief code working properly with the RF2 data.

[edit]

But of course, R3E VR support will be available before RF2 VR support, won't it Georg
And RF2 will probably still stink compared to R3E

 

Cheers for the update Mr B.

And haha, didn't even think about the fact that gentlemen, we have a RACE.

 

thanks i've find what i wanted, I had already created the batch file

 

That stupid Crew Chief author really needs to get off his backside and write some proper documentation for all these baffling properties

 

Documentation doesn't sound like something powered by beer though, unless it's the Necronomicon. Come to think of it, that probably already contains at least part of the Crew Chief documentation.

 

Sorry I try to understand your sentence but oops I'm french and .... I do not understand !!!
