Add missing parameters to telemetry for plugins

[cicci8ino]

Hi,

As rF2 (already asked many times on Discord for clarification and on the forum here without ever getting a response), it seems that LMU is missing some relevant data in the telemetry. I'm talking about at least:
- TC level/mode
- TC power cut level
- TC slip angle
- Fuel mixture/Motor map
- ABS level
- Engine temperature for some cars, i.e. P2
- Water temperature for some cars, i.e. P2
- ARB
For hybrid/electric engines:
- Temperature (available as mEletricBoostMotorTemperature and mElectricBoostWaterTemperature)
- Deployment mode (electric engine power)
- Regen mode
- Recharge state (available as mBatteryChargeFraction and mElectricBoostMotorState)
Considering that the shared memory plugin is working without any change, I assume you are still using the exact rF2 Internal structures and invoking the same exported plugin functions. Therefore these parameters are probably not yet exposed by LMU too.

I kindly ask you to share if this is planned or will ever be planned.

I always hide MFD and I always rely on external devices for all the telemetry (i.e. external USB screen driven by SimHub). It would be awesome to get these values too.
It might be possible to get the same values via reverse engineering and direct memory reading but I don't think that's a viable and stable option for most of the user.

Thanks

That would be awesome!

This would be perfect!!!

I have been asking this for several years but got no response!

 

[Redadeg]

Right now (and i am in fear cause of rF2) it is litarrly impossible to use external Dashboards for the HY and LMP cars, cause the lack of informations we receive from the game.

A Hypercar without ERS state, SOC or TC on the Display is not driveable.

So please add exports to:

SOC -> [ERSPercent]
TC -> [TCLevel]
(the best would be to get it fot CUT and SLIP as well)

ERS Mode -> [GameRawData.mErsDeploymentMode]

Additional support (not so important, not 100 % necessary to play the game) of the IDLE an PIT

It would be really much appreciated, causo without this informations the use of the RIG of many people is not possible!

I think it's a complicated subject.
If you open too many data, it will open the gate of automated scripts or exploits.
Today there is already some "weak" data.
In Closed practice, i can see other players running on track on my radar and relative. That gives me data i shouldn't have.

The good request would be to open those data only in "Private" mode, like pure solo and not "in game" to avoid exploits in R1aces, imo.

Then you can "work" those data, with overlays etc. but not in Race with other real players.

There is no "cheat" here, but it may open a few "exploits" if some data are too open/accessible.

@DanRZ Sorry.. I don't agree. What is being asked for is present in many other sims.. plus, it is only info that is already accessible via the in-game HUD.. What Redadeg is seeking is the ability to have that information on a separate screen or monitor in order to have a 'clean' display Which equals more 'immersion'. Additionally to this, if you could see what IS available through the telemetry feed, you'd see that if anyone WAS intent on using the data for an exploit, there's plenty there already to fill their boots!

@Redadeg A little of what you're asking for IS available, but you have to click 'Show game specific properties ('rawdata') in SimHub.. Which is what you're using judging by the references you've made..

So far, I've found:

GameRawData.CurrentPlayerTelemetry.mBatteryChargeFraction for [ERS Percent]

DataCorePlugin.GameRawData.CurrentPlayerTelemetry.mElectricBoostMotorState.. Which gives a value of 1, 2 or 3 (1=Static, 2=Discharging and 3= Charging)

We also have:

GameRawData.Data.mAvgPathWetness for the track state (0=Dry, 1=Wet)

and

GameRawData.CurrentPlayerTelemetry.mFrontTireCompoundIndex for the tyre compounds (0=Soft, 1=Medium, 2=Hard, 3=Wet)

It's a long list and I am looking for more but yes.. I second the request for TC levels.. Slip would be nice (If it's not there already, buried under an odd name) and Fuel Map too.

Edit: There is already another post requesting this.. Go upvote it too HERE

Tried this 2 thingis and no, they did not work. No charging state displayed, sadly.

 

[herve45]

Yes


for dashboards, also think of the many simhub users and add data to the shared memory

Some examples
- Factory aids cars 0/1 (abs, tc, tc cut, etc....)
- Level for abs/tc/tc cut/tc slip angle
- Oil T°
- Water T°
- ABS/TC active
- Engine Map

- More accurate damage management something other than 0/1/2 but rather damage percentages

 

[Redadeg]

I would be Glad with TC and SOC

But its getting worse. Since the todays Update we lost Tyre Pressure and Tyre Temps.
Yesterday the export worket, today ony Tyre Wear is working, rest ist gone. :-(

I found out what the Problem with SEC is:
It is exportet, but in 0.987 setting for example. Do be properly displayed we nee 0-100 - e.g 98 instead of 0.98

Maybe there is a way to "translate" 0.98 to 98 in Simhub? Here i am limited zbh
Now you can use it in decimal showing with d dot in front, but not in gauge style like the peugeot has it

Update was:
Build number: 13546746

Disabled redundant development tool that may have been introducing stability issues for some users

Just add '*10' to the formula in SimHub chap..

You need to add square brackets to those values BTW.. I didn't add them in my post because that's not how they appear in SimHub.. Unlike [TCLevel] or [ERSPercent] etc.

Yes, i know. Trying to check it out later with the multipier.

Here you can see live outputs, and tyres are dead. nothing since this morning

Another queston: Do you know how i switch text colors? Eg. Delt....fast - should be green, slower + should be red

 

[RWB Rygel]

Not at my PC right now to look.. but pretty sure I just use the 'quick component' Delta.. If that's broken then I haven't seen it yet (I was on it last night after that update).
As for the tyre temps.. Search for 'tire' also.. and click that game specific button on the top left.. It's probably still there but under 'rawdata'.

 

[Redadeg]

Yeah, took the same, but it stays white...however...not so important right now.

Tire:
work again...why ever

 

[Redadeg]

Okay, got it to work. I put here my 2 Dashboards which i make. MAybe someone is interessted or someone wants to install, to test and make it even better. Attachement at the bottom

Following dashboards with Features:

Peugeot 9X8
- IGN Off indicator (Peugeot Logo shown - would be interessting if it works - mean if the logo graphic is exported es as well)
- Engine off indicator
- Headlight indicator
- SOC State of charge
- Fuel Level
- Fuel Last Lap
- Laps driven
- Fuel Laps left
- Tyre Temps and Pressure (dont know why it is shown in bar - dont know how to change)
- Brake Temps
- Current Laptime
- Speed
- Time Delta
- Brake Balance with Change Notification
- Game notifications
- Blue, Green, Yellow and Black Flag Indicators

What is missing:
- TC Level indicator
- ERS Deplyment Mode
(if this 2 things can be clarified there is a change notification in the pipe as well
- REGEN State/Mode Indicator
- TCell
- ARB

LMP2
all in function exept TC Indicator

 

[RWB Rygel]

Nice dash.. You're probably a bit more fluent with SimHub than I am tbh!

That flags tablet is almost as big as the one in the Porsche GTE

I added this to my ERS gauge.. Just to accentuate when it was charging/ discharging etc:

 

[Vhylen]

if we want a pure replica of the real cars, we should have all the data exposed that is on the cars dashboards

Yes please!
