    other the UPD , can we use other method to capture data? For example : PS4 GT5 and GT6 both support multiple screen using multiple PS4 and network. Is It possible to capture required information from these network package?

    I dont think so, as it would require a lot of reverse engieneering. But I havent seen GT5 or GT6 on PS4 anyway.

    You need to run simtools on a PC mate then link to the PS4 as far as I know

    You don't install SimTools on the ps4 buddy.
    You just capture the game packets on the same machine you use now and play.
    Since Game Manger can not tell when the game has started, it is a manual plugin and needs to be started by hand.

    Hi , I also only use ps4 and am very excited to get assetto corsa up and running on my dofreality rig. Is it too much to hope for that you have found a cure. If so could you please, please post the exact procedure to obtain motion. I have tried to use your plugin before and seems to keep crashing. Any help would be very helpful , happy racing.

    Hi,

    As you know when you are using consoles(Ps4, Xbox one), these systems don't allow read the memory or read a file in the game folder, because these systems are very restrictive to avoid crack its systems. Is for this reason that the unique form to obtain the telemetry is with the UDP. (Protocol to communicate 2 systems )

    Can you test the udp packets send by AC is not crashing?

    Did you try some client to save the telemetry?(https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/acti-assetto-corsa-telemetry-interface.3948/)

    Are you sure that the plugin is the main problem?

    Sorry no, most of them are done by @vthinsel, so are pretty quick and easy to find in the Download section.

    As you know the unique manner to extract telemetry from consoles is using UDP, and for that the developer for each game must implements a logic to export the telemetry into the setting as option in the game.
    Now the games that allow this function are:

    F1 2016
    F1 2017
    F1 2018
    F1 2019
    Assetto Corsa
    Project Cars
    Project Cars 2
    Moto Gp 18

    For project cars, you must update the game to the latest version to found the telemetry option in the settings menu.
