    Dirt2 uses line of code change that conflicts with simtools motion. I am not sure if using a dash display like that would work.
    I had looked at a similar thing a while ago for Grid Autosport, but the line of code change affects the motion and stops the motion.
    Not even sure if an android device as dash would work. Mind you, I dont have a decent tablet.

    Ok bsft, i came to the same conclusions . simtools crashes if i try to run slimax proxy . That is why i did not bother posting settings. I was afraid to get this answer but i kinda expected it.

    x-sim works though, through a specifoc x-sim plugin in simdash.

    thanks

    mmmm...ok then, Simtools guys are working on the plugins so dash data can be taken out of them, but it does take time.
    Quite a few of us are waiting for that.
    This is what I do currently for codies games

    Or this with AC and simbin games
