Getting MoTeC i2 running with rFactor 2

[destinationriver]

Hey guys!
I'm currently struggeling a lot getting MoTeC i2 Pro 1.1 to work with rFactor 2.
So, I already got my logfiles, but can't get any rF2 Workspace to open. I downloaded the SR4L and the Coach Dave Workspace, both made for rF2. However, once I click the i2wsp-archive files, i2 just opens, but doesn't install the Workspace. Importing the workspace doesn't work, since it's only looking for i2.wsp files.
Opening the logfiles on a default workspace works, but doesn't give all the channels needed (like Tire temps Inside/Middle/Outside in my case).
Anybody here being able to help?
Thanks a lot!

Have you run Motec without the workspace to ensure you have it correctly installed? Motec requires a plug-in to send the data from rF2 to Motec. Here is an outdated link that mentions the plugin(s) required.

Some codecs (including the general release Windows 10 codec) are not compatible with i2.
To resolve this issue install one of these codecs.​

• FFDShow Codec Rev 4531
• FFDShow Codec Rev 4531 (64 bit)

Thanks mate, but that did change nothing unfortunately

Yeah I think you have some media apps you will already have updated codec
winamp "community" app I think is one that installs it.

Just a heads up I had no issue getting it running.
All I remember is installing it and copying over the plug-ins
Hassle I had at first was changing the default folder for Logged Data ( moved it to a partition so info not lost with fresh OS which I do regular )
I don't actually use it but I like to check stuff out so I ran rF2 session and it logged okay.
I then kept Motec\logged data folder for the sake of it, maybe one day I get more interest.

What about firewall ?

To get mine to work I had to download version 1.0.21 instead of the newest 1.1.5 version. If you go on their website and click the button to show older releases it will show up.

I think it's because the plugin doesn't save the log files in the right format but I'm not sure about that one.

mi2_pro_1.0.21

Motec i2 pro

seems this is hard to get, I have uploaded to this section, thanks to David Wright for the download.

Maybe this......

To change the options quit out of rF2, find the MotecPlugin.ini file which should be in your main rF2 folder*, and check out the available settings (more info below).
