Haha, I wouldn't be surprised if that happens! 😃

I've made a few updates to the Python library on GitHub over the past few days. First to fix the missing acceleration parameters in the output when writing out data to a file. Thanks goes to Gryphon962 for reporting that bug! Secondly, to add CSV support for those who prefer to work with data in that format. I also switched the default behaviour so the script starts a new file and writes a row with the names of all columns at the beginning of the file. There's a command line parameter available to have it append to an existing file.

I'm starting to work with python. However, it is not working for me. I have taken the IP Address with ipconfig (ipv4 Address), has chosen your example port (1123), then I do "python data2file.py 1123 outfile.tsv" and nothing happens. I hit Ctrl+C and nothing happens. Then, I close the window and only the head (row with names of columns) is written on the file.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I ran a quick test on this, and, it work exactly as described by nettrom. Make sure to get data via Test Drive and/or Race!!! I ran about 1/4 lap and the output file had a lot of data available.

var speed = Math.Sqrt((packet.VelocityX * packet.VelocityX) + (packet.VelocityZ * packet.VelocityZ));

Are there any specific units that things such as Velocity are given in?

I'm getting VelocityX, VelocityY and VelocityZ. I can see that in this world space Y is up and down so I'm going to ignore it. Getting the magnitude of the XZ vector with the following code.



Im driving in a straight line I can see my X and Y are near zero, and Z is 52. That is the same value as the speed value above so I believe the math is correct. I'm just confused what this means. I was testing in a NASCAR and keeping it in second gear. If I set my game to mph units I get around 117 display in game. If I set it to metric units I get 189. In both cases the speed variable from the UDP is around 52. Am I meant to multiple by something here?

EDIT: Wiring up my response I wondered what other measurements exist. It's meters per second. Makes perfect sense.

I'm working on a .NET Core solution.
For the moment, there's just a simple console app, but I'm working on something bigger for web spectators.
There's a lot of things to do, mainly some translation of data values (need to convert them to Gs, or kmph, etc.).

If you're curious, it's there :

This may be a stupid question, but does Xbox support this? That is, can I have a PC on network listening and writing data from Xbox?

YES!

Can I also ask if you're open to parameter requests,

I'm one of the staff which run TORA (the online racing association) and I've already started looking into creating an app for this data stream.

The thing we do is organise racing leagues, from series to endurance races, and being able to receive this data and have it displayed on a full live timing system would be awesome,

The only things I can't see are things such as what the global position of the car is in relation the the track they're currently on so there'd be no way of plotting or tracking the cars position.

Is this every parameter you'd have available to output or are there any options to add more if required?

I've listed below what I think would be good and how it would benefit people.

x, y, z position in global terms: could then plot where the car is which would be useful for saving and reading telemetry to create better tunes / plotting the cars positions for display in live timing
gear number: useful in dashboard building as a gear indicator / telemetry
current track: again would be useful for telemetry readings...

I finally got around to creating a client of my own. This is a native app for iOS (iPhone) written in objective-c. I really just did this for me, but since there don't appear to be any dashboard apps for iOS I will go ahead and publish it to the app store once I clean a few things up.

It would definitely be nice to have the CarID mappings so we can do certain things based on make / model. Providing gear ratio and other info would allow more accurate shift light triggers. And, as everyone else has mentioned, tire wear, damage, fuel, etc. I think it would be a LOT more useful with that info. Very cool they did this though. I know FH4 is more of an arcade game but would be nice if it supported it as well.

so if you have a magic formula for speed calculation... :)

Hi

nice app !

I'm working on physical dashboard based on R-Pi / arduino for console, if it is not a secret how do you compute the speed ? I'm turning arround WheelRotationSpeed telemetry data (rad/s) but I'm not able to compute speed in kmh/mph without tires geometry ? Am I on wrong way or I miss something huge in telemetry data ?

so if you have a magic formula for speed calculation... :)

Thanks and Regards.

One enhancement request I wanted to raise was outputting timestamps for every line. Not in game timestamps - just normal, real world timestamps. This way, it is easier to store in database and then query particular sessions. I was able to to sourcecode myself - but figured I would make request.

To me it seems that "EngineMaxRpm" is not the rpm of rev limiter, but the max rpm of the rev counter that is shown in the hud.
