Is it smooth ? Would really love to find a smooth working virtual screen using tablet, it would open possibilities to lot of people without having to buy a dedicated screen !
I dont find any problem with it to be honest. Give me 5 minutes and ill upload a video of it in use then you can make you own mind up on it.
 
Hi Wotever, Thanks for the great work.
I was using an older version last month some time (not sure witch, 4.****) everything was perfect with my TM1638, worked with PCars, Dirt Rally and ETS/ATS.

However i recently installed the latest 5.0.1 and now it only works with Dirt and ETS/ATS.
Sim hub looks like its not detecting the fact that PCars are Assetto Corsa are running, and the display just sits on the default time display. (PCars previously working, AC untested)
When either games are running (and driving) the title bar also says "Game Disconnected"

I went back and tried an older version, same result. so i suspect its more something i have done instead of the version changes ;) no idea what though.

The Dev Properties Tab and the logs show no sign of the games being detected.
I have made sure that everything is being run "As Administrator"

I have come to an dead end, any idea's how to continue to trouble shoot?
Thanks

Hum strange did you reinstall you computer ? PCars needs to activate Shared memory from settings, Ac should work out of box with no trouble, that's strange :( I was planning to release a version this evening I will add additionnal info for troubleshooting.

Edit : AC maybe detected later than previous versions (only when starting race)

Same install of windows. Shared Memory is enabbled in PCars, and tested AC all the way to a race, No dice :(

Tested the new Version with GT Legends and that works!

Playing AC and the Logs are filled with this:

INFO Connected to device on COM6 named ACHUB Dash
ERROR First chance exception errorSystem.IO.FileNotFoundException: Unable to find the specified file.
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
ERROR First chance exception errorSystem.IO.FileNotFoundException: Unable to find the specified file.
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

which then stops when i start a race. Dont know if that helps at all.
 
Hey all,

Edited - 14:00 18/04/2017. V2 update

I've been working more on the dash I created and want to release it for everyone to use. As you suggested Wotever, I have made them all into widgets to get them all working together. The dash is loosely based around a Porsche Motec. It does the following:

- Porsche logo splash screen
- 10 RPM LEDs (6 green, 4 red) They change to alternating blue/green when in pit lane.
- 8 flag and fuel leds (2 of each, one on each side). Following order - Low fuel (yellow 5 laps left, red 2 laps left), Yellow flag, Blue flag, penalty flag.
- RPM bar with RPM's in digits (goes red when over 95%)
- ERS bar. (disappears when there is no ERS)
- Delta progress to best lap and an Iracing style bar too.
- Usual Speed and Gear status and race position indicator.
- 1 sub page with lap timing, tyres and map. (map a button to do 'ACTION A' on simhub to scroll)
- Warning flag indications and T/C & ABS status.
- Fuel usage info.

If there is anything anyone can suggest then please let me know, and I'll see what I can do. It's fun creating them!

Hi @Wotever ,

Can I pick your brain quick? I've got the LED's working and I'm working on an F1 style one now. Lewis hamilton has the first 3 or so leds light up when the revs are at a certain range but turn off when at a higher range (whilst the rest do the shifting) any idea how I can do that?

Easy ;) bind the visible property with something like this :
[SerialDashPlugin.ComputedRPMPercent] >= 90 && [SerialDashPlugin.ComputedRPMPercent] < 92
the led will be only visible when RPM is beetween 90 and 92% (I know in real life we would talk in absolute rpms values but in this way your dash can scale to any car.)

I'm preparing a version with a bunch of logging in order to troubleshoot your problem, I'll PM you when it's ready ;)

- Usual Speed and Gear status and race position indicator.
- Best lap, last lap and lap number status (on page 2 this is tyres instead).
- Warning flag indications and T/C & ABS status.
- Fuel usage info.
- There is a 3rd page with track map too.

If there is anything anyone can suggest then please let me know, and I'll see what I can do. It's fun creating them!

P.S. Wotever - With the track map its large and moves around is there a way of having an option to just have the map as one static image and the indicator moves around?

Took a look, it's nice ;)
You could go a bit further with multi screens widget (the tyres and main screen would be a single screen with only one dynamic widget (look in "conceptdash_v4" for the "subscreen" widget, it's made like that, you can scroll through map/tyres/lap times directly in the widget with a "action" button), I will make a video if you want ;)

Also I wanted to ask you a few questions , since you are the second person to crash-test use dash studio :D.
  • What would you change to dash studio ?
  • What was the most annoying thing ? (except scrolling while reordering layers :D)
  • Did you find something is really missing ?

Interesting. I'll have a look at that option in a bit.

Regarding your questions. Hope you are ready!
- It crashes a lot, I mean a lot. When I'm making these dashes I have to restart it around every half an hour. It will sometimes slow down then stop responding or just play up.
Things I'd like to see:
- The ability to rename dash screens.
- The ability to make a copy of dash screens.
- The ability to delete / rename widgets.
- The ability to copy a component.
- The ability to use created widgets across different dashes
- Have dash's start up automatically when games load (so you can leave the app in system tray all the time). Or also when the app loads.
- Have a button for switching back and forth between the created dash's.

That's all I can think of for now. I'll add to this post if I come up with anymore. Overall it's awesome though, don't forget that!

And now another question from me! I've setup my dash to use Assetto corsa NCalc scripts how would I get it to work with PCars too?

P.S. That function you gave me worked a treat!

Thanks for your feedback , I was ready ;) no problem, it have some youth problems to solve ;)
But i'm happy to see is it's mainly details and it's not the "core".

To make it work on other game today you do not have thousands solutions since you have used game specific data, you have to do one version by game, or wait a little,
I will work on giving more "cross game" data in a close future, but ball is on my side for this.
I took global look, in your template, major use of game specific data is for pitlane, flags, kers, TC and ABS which is pretty standard
Give me one day or two two see what I can do ;)
 
Cheers Wotever.

TBH I mostly play Assetto but do still go on PCars every now and then. No rush on that one.

I've done what you suggested about subpages. Works a treat! I'll update my original post.
