Has anyone tested yet if rFactor-on-Steam works with any of the telemetry plugins like Vitumo's XD, Fazerbox' GID, or rFDynHUD?
From personal experience I know that especially the Engine Health in both XD and GID only works with some versions of rfactor.exe, as both these plugins are basically DirectX hacks that tap straight into memory.
Yet Engine Health IMO is THE most important reading in mods like HistorX.
So while rFactor-on-Steam has some nice improvements for modern PC's as described HERE, and I'm tempted to move my game to Steam, I'm afraid memory adressing has had an overhaul as well and neither of the plugins may work..
I don't know about rFDynHud though, as I prefer my PC without Java, but if that's the only one that works, I'd like to hear..
