    Quick question, this plug-in means data can be output from the console version of Project CARS 2 using UDP, and a PC can read the output data and drive a motion platform for the console game?

    Brilliant. Looks like my dreams have come true. I’m guessing there is more needed than just this plug-in.

    We are running into an issue. when two PCs are in same subnet and use UDP PCARs plugin SimTools on Both PCs are driven from PCARs game on First PC. So SimTools on both PCs are getting telemetry over UDP from one game instead of each other only from local games corresponding. Looks like UDP propagate all over LAN instead of localhost only . It is a nature of UDP?
    Looks like it is impossible to change port in PCARs and in plugin DLL.

    @fuad,
    I could not find any bugs.
    I used Value1's PC version and it worked just fine.
    So I expect this one would also.
    Take care,

    Guys, I need your help.
    After getting the DIY license I installed the Project Cars2 Plugin UDP to get it work with my PS4.
    My rig is currently in an "optimisation" mode, so I tested the setup with PC2, Simtools and the Plugin without the rig hardware.
    Unfortunately, it seems that I get wrong data.
    Pls see the videos:
    In the first, LFS is launched and you see the virtual axis when the car is driving and finally stopped somewhere on the track.

    --> there is hardly any movement on the axis when stopped. So far, everything ok
    In the 2nd video, but now witch PC2 running on PS4:

    --> a lot of movement on the axis, even when car is standing still.
    So it seems that I get wrong values somehow.

    In PC2 I setup the UDP frequency to 1 (but tried also with other values) and the format is "Project Cars 2".

    In a wireshark trace you can see, that the data is arriving:


    So, what's wrong ?
    PS4 and PC are in the same subnet and both connected via Ethernet.
    Any ideas ?

    Thanks,
    Dirk/Arazok

    Hello. In tuning center, make sure you capture max/min. It is too blury in you video but I suspect the range is too small, explaining the erratic movements.
    EDIT: I looked more carefully th video. the values for heave/sway/surge/roll/pitch/yaw move nicely in tuning center, so the issue looks to be really on the min/max values.

    ok, thanks for the hint. Could be, that I never saved min/max values for PC2.
    I will check tomorrow.

    ok, I will do that.
    Do you advice to create a motion profile with a disconnected rig / seat, so that axes cannot move accidently in a wrong way ?

    No, you should ensure the rig moves as SimTools expects before messing with any game profiles: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/which-way-to-set-simtool-axis-movements.230/

    Once you have a reasonable Default profile there should not be too many issues with really wild movement, unless a game has 0 for all values in the Tuning Center, and that is easy to check for when you first install a plugin.

    Thanks for your help. Recording with Tuning Center and saving the data solved the issue :)
    But still one question: In Simtools GameEngine you create the default profile and then a profile for each game.
    In the GameManager you select the Game and you start Tuningcenter to once record the Min/Max values for this game.
    But when exactly is the default profile then taken and how to capture min/max for default ?

    cheers Dirk
