Version 12.3 is here.

It took much longer than expected to get this out.

Notable PC2 changes/fixes:
  • Fixed race history saving. Now even if you do just one single race, the race history + timing data will be saved (if enabled from the settings)
  • Added 'Oil Pressure', 'Water pressure' and 'Fuel pressure' to the Driving tab view
Key new additions on this release:
  • STATISTICS TABLE GRAPHS: Added session long view, where you can see key tyre data for all laps in the session. Very handy e.g. for ACC to setup the tyre pressures.
  • MAP: Added forward pit window (or you can also select any car in the race to show, where they would land after normal pitstop).
  • RACE INFO: Fixed some issues with fuel use calculations. It should now work better also at the start of the race.
  • RACE TIMING: You can now select any driver and show their laptimes from the race.
  • COMPARISON PANEL: You can now adjust the width of the data visual line. Makes easier to work with that data.
  • Fixed race history saving. It should now work well in all games even, if you just do one race and quit the tool.
  • RaceRoom Racing Experience support added
  • AC multi-player support, i.e. data is now collected from all cars in the race, when you install the plugin. Also a lot of changes/fixes relating to multi-car data and other data. This works only on the PC version.
  • rFactor 2, new plugin, which should put less stress on the network connection + plenty of fixes/tweaks
  • AMS2: Added the new tracks + cars data
  • A lot of little tweaks/fixes here and there.
See the ReadMe.txt for the list of all additions/changes.

Update

To update, you can just unzip the whole .zip on top of your existing installation.

New Install

If you are doing a new install, just unzip the package anywhere in your system (can be in \program files or e.g. \bin\telemetry_tool). On windows start the tool with runWin.bat and select the game mode. On first run the Tool will ask for the location of data files etc. and it will setup all things for you. The default settings should work well.

If you use the Tool on Linux/Mac, check the ReadMe.txt for details on running the Tool on those platforms.

Enjoy and get faster.

Cheers.

New version 11.3 is here.

Largest addition is the new 'Workspace'. In short this is like the Telemetry view, but you can save and load the set of traces. E.g. you can have different workspace for setup work, and another for driving inputs. There are also many new traces, e.g. wheel speed diff for sides or wheel locking indicator etc. For each trace there is now few options to adjust the view:
  • Basic: normal trace
  • Diff: blue vs. red trace (or with multilap blue vs each trace)
  • Smooth: smooth the trace along many data points (option varies from 1 to 33)
  • Derivative: calculate the derivate at that point. The slider varies for how long time the derivative is calculated (bit like smoothing)
  • %-change: How large % change (vs. 0 value) happened. Here the slider adjusts, for how many packets the chagne is calculated.

Also there is new 'Field spread' tab, which shows how far apart the cars are on track (dist or delta). This is good way to see while racing, of someone is holding the pack or if someone is approaching you from behind etc.

Notable other additions

F1 2021
- Added Imola and Jeddah trackmaps
- Added F2 2021 drivers + teams data

ACC
  • Fixed situation in race, where the lap is invalid, but it was not flagged as not valid
  • In statistics page changed tyre temp to tyre pressure. So now the statistics page will show the temps like this: "FL 27.3->27.6 : avg 27.4 | 95C" which means, the pressures ranged from 27.3 to 27.6, with average at 27.4, the average temperature was 95C. This makes it easier to decide what to do with the tyre pressures for the setup.
  • New Relay + added new fields in 1.8 shared memory to the tool
AMS2
  • Fixed Monza 10k trackmaps
  • Added new Racing USA trackmaps
  • Added v1.3 new car + car class data to the tool
  • Added full Nordschleiffe 24h track map to the tool.

Launcher
Added "reset UI" to the launcher. This will reset the main window position of the Tool. So if for some reason the window positions get corrupted, this can be used to reset those settings. This applies only to the selected game, when you press the 'LAUNCH' button.

General
  • Tried to fix a very random occurrence, where the fastest lap would be replaced with slower lap
  • Made the shortcuts, like CTRL-O work even if menu is not visible
  • Color saving now also saves the opacity
  • Many little tweaks

For update: Copy Telemetry.jar + the tracks directories content to your current installation + in the bin directory the contents of the ACC directory. The changes are in AMS2 and F1 and directories.

For new install: Check the ReadMe.txt for the installation instructions. In short, just unzip to somewhere on you system, either to 'Program files' or somewhere else. Now you don't need to anymore edit the baseSettings.xml, as the tool will create it automatically.

Enjoy, and get faster.

Statistics table
  • Added wing setup data for games, which provide that data
Racenumber-name map
  • Fixed issue, where the TLA would just show race number, and not the TLA from the file
HTTP Server output
  • Fixed deltaToLeader in the json/aidata
  • Made JSON/tracks to output track list for the current game
+ Many little fixes and tweaks.

For update: Copy Telemetry.jar + the tracks directories content to your current installation. The changes are in AMS2, F1 and KartKraft directories.

Hello,

New version of my telemetry and race strategy tool is here. This is mainly a bug/stability/performance fix with few interesting additions.

What is new in version 11.1?

Notable AMS2/PC2 related additions:
  • Updated the PC2/AMS2 relay so that it can read the settings file from the same directory, where it resides. This allows some more flexibility on using the relay
  • Added bit more data to the Driving pane

UDP Redirect
  • Fixed a very nasty random bug, which prevented the UDP redirect to work properly. This fix also improves the performance of the F1 2020 format redirect (ie. the TM SF1000 rim feed).
  • With the UDP Redirect F1 2020 format, the rev lights will blink, if the pit limiter is on.
  • Plenty of smaller fixes/tweaks to the redirect model. This should improve the performance in any game mode, most notably with ACC.
Map
  • Added option to show the map with as transparent background, so if you have only one screen, you could have the map still visible with e.g. the lines driven. See the images below. This does not work on Linux (yet)
Driving
  • Made tyre surface and core temps to be more prominently displayed. Also moved things bit around
And many little tweaks/fixes.

Check the ReadMe.txt for detailed list of updates.

For update, update the Telemetry.jar + tracks\ams2 (if you use AMS2) + the .sh files (if you are on Linux/Mac).

For new install, check the ReadMe.txt file inside the .zip for details on how to install the Tool on Windows, Linux and/or Mac.

Enjoy, and get faster.

PS. A small screenshot of the transparent map on top of the game

New version is here.

Main addition is support for F1 2021.

Notable PC2 fixes:
- Updated the PC2_Relay to also send UDP data to the IP address set via settings. This will make it easier to run the Telemetry Tool and PC2 on separate computers. Check the help for more information.

Other small fixes/tweaks/performance tunes are listed in the ReadMe.txt.

For update, just either
a) unzip the whole .zip to the place where you had old installation or
b) unzip the .zip to new place and then on the first run the tool will ask for the location of the (old) data.

New installs, check the ReadMe.txt for installation instructions.

The Telemetry Tool updated to 10.6.

With this version I updated the JRE to version 15. So if you are updating, you need to
- update the bin directory (there is also for Linux and Mac a custom JRE binary included)
- update the lib directory
- update the Telemetry.jar + the .bat (windows) and .sh files (linux/mac)

Key new features

  • Added Statistics table, which will show much more driving statistics on per lap basis
  • Added Launcher, which you can use instead of the several per game .bat files. The runWin.bat (and runLinux.sh and runMac.sh) have been updated to start the launcher. You can still use the per game .bat files to start the Tool, if you prefer that.
  • Added to UDP forward option to send the data out in F1 2020 format for all supported games. You can use this e.g. with Thrustmaster SF1000 wheel to get data to the wheel's dash, or to send data to other dash, which supports F1 2020 format.
Other notable PC2 related updates/changes.
  • Fixed Yaw, Roll & Pitch graphs. They were actually totally wrong, but now they show the correct data.
  • Fixed issues (tool not starting etc), when running the game in different language than English
New users: In short, unzip the .zip to your system (e.g. to Program Files) or some other place. Then start the tool with one of the .bat files (on Windows) or .sh files (on Linux/Mac). The tool will the ask for location of the data etc. Check the ReadMe.txt for details.

Enjoy, and get faster.
10.5 is here.

Biggest addition is system to sync your laptimes + basic lap data to global database. When there is more data, I will add functionality to the Tool, which will allow you to compare your own times to the laptimes of other users of the Telemetry Tool. The tool will ask consent for sending the data, when you start it for the first time.

New general additions:

  • Multi-histogram view
  • Multi-XY-plotter view
  • Map: Border color added to leader, car in front and behind for easy detection
  • New trackfile format, which is more compact + also loads faster.
  • Tyre pressures are now saved to lapdata files
  • Many little fixes and tweaks.
  • PgUp and PgDown work as zoom in all views (handy if there is no mouse scroller on the system)
I expect this to be last big update for the near future. I will be hunting + fixing odd bugs and working on making the backend bit more robust before next larger release.

For update, backup old installation, then unzip the .zip on top of the old installation. There are many new files in bin, lib and tracks directories.

For new installs, check the ReadMe.txt and/or the Youtube videos on how to install this.

If you have any questions, let me know.

Enjoy, and get faster.

Cheers.
The new 10.4 version is here.

Biggest additions in 10.4 are:
  • Math Channels. You can create math channels from the base data and show the traces on the Telemetry tab
  • Torque data is also saved to the save files
  • When modifying the trace colors, you can keep the car corner trace colors synced. So if you enable this and change the color for Wheel Speed FL, all FL corner traces will use the new color.
Check the ReadMe.txt for more details.

For update for PC2 usage
  • Update the telemetry.jar
  • Update the contents of the lib directory
For new installs, check the ReadMe.txt on details how to install the tool.

The new 10.3 version is here.

This version has many PC2 related additions.

Shared Memory
Biggest new thing is, I added 'Shared-memory-to-UDP-relay', so that the shared memory data can be used. In SHMEM there is more accurate data for some traces, like speed, position and temperatures. Check the ReadMe.txt for more details. It is recommended you use the Relay with the tool, when using PC2.

To use the relay you have to enable the Shared Memory option in the PC2's System settings and then start the relay. I have updated the runWin_PC2.bat to start the relay automatically.

GHOST LAPS
Added GHOST lap saving, which now works bit like with the F1 feeds. The fastest GHOST from the selected GHOSTS will be set as fastest lap (typically after your 2nd lap against the ghosts), if you choose that for BLUE lap. This requires the use of the PC2 SHMEM-to-UDP relay to be used.

Other

  • Added game specific settings page for PC2. Editing data there will also adjust the relay settings, so you don't need to edit the file.
  • Redid/Updated many trackmaps.
  • RACEINFO: Added "time lost due to pitstop" field to the laptime section. Also added text showing how many pitstops and how much to refuel during those pitstops to make it to the end.
  • DRIVING: Replaced the "Turbo" bar with "Torque" bar, as I think torque is more useful in PC2 than the turbo value. Also added Horsepower data.
  • DRIVING: Added to driving more tyre temp data + a slider for the tyre wear fractions. Handy when trying to learn how your driving affects the tyre wear.
  • RACETIMING: Added PitS field showing how many pitstops each driver has made during the session.
  • STATISTICS: Added some new data, including average fuel use
How to update to this version
Download the .zip and unzip it to where you have the older version installed. There are updated PC2 tracks and in the bin directory the new AMS2/PC2 Sharedmemory-to-UDP relay.

How to install
Check the ReadMe.txt for new install instructions.

Viruscan results for the relays

In the past the relays have been flagged as "dangerous". They are clean, but here are the links to virustotal scans.

Enjoy, and get faster.

Cheers.

  • Telemetry.jar
  • bin directory (there is new JRE)
  • tracks directory (many fixed trackmaps)
For new install, just check the ReadMe.txt in the .zip

Enjoy, and get faster.
