Let's talk about broadcasting (programmer's thread)

var isOutlap = br.ReadByte() > 0;
var isInlap = br.ReadByte() > 0;

if (isOutlap)
lap.Type = LapType.Outlap;
else if (isInlap)
lap.Type = LapType.Inlap;
else
lap.Type = LapType.Regular;

this get ERROR in BroadcastingNetworkProtocol, so everytime is lap regular

 

Can we get some manual on this feature? Thx

 

Sector 3 times prob u can fix on xaml, there is duped sector 2 in the code.

I know this isn't a programmers question, but does anybody know how to get back the gap timings from the broadcast hud.

Mine now looks like:


Previously has them (older look):


I noticed SRO (with the updated hud) had them on their stream yesterday, but I can't find the option.. Doh!

 

Push INSERT

 

This above
or if you have MFD page switch button use that for same effect,there is 3-4 pages of timetables you can swap around

 

Such a noob, thank you so much. I must have pressed it by mistake at some point

 

hold INSERT hide/unhide menu, so u dont need scroll over all infos.

 

Any update or acknowledgment of these bugs from Kunos yet? The lack of track position output and some of these other issues are some show stoppers for some apps.

 

about event msg, in latest version its there only 3 types (LapCompleted, BestPersonalLap, BestSessionLap) why not coming from the game others? We need Green Light and Accident..........

 

Agreed! Any word from Kunos about these issues?

 

I too am hoping they can jump on some of these improvements after they release 1.4 (or even better in 1.4 ). It seems a lot of interest has sparked up in the broadcasting API/client again recently, possibly related to eSports broadcasting etc.

 

Actually another requested improvement I would like to add to my previous lists:

• An OutboundMessageType to change the timing HUD view (as discussed above - equivalent to pressing INSERT). When running the broadcasting client from another PC it is a pain having to go back to the game PC to press INSERT to change this. It is a similar issue to pressing DRIVE (which I have also requested as an OutboundMessageType).

Thanks.

 

my C is old as F.
but i'm about to dive in, to try if i can return a timestamp on incident things for stewarding as a lap is long and can be very time demanding to seek into a whole lap

especialy on big grid

 

BroadcastEventView already displays when Incidents occur and what car numbers were involved. There is also a variable called TimeMS which you can use to get the point in time of that event. By default the events are just listed in the window and eventually disappear, but you could add code to write them to a file if you wanted.

I have just got back into C++/C# after 8 years off, so I know what you mean

 

Hey guys at simracingonline.co.uk we are looking for a streamer for our ACC events , this week Monza 47 drivers so far (50 slots) we are happy to be guni pigs and experiment with the whole broadcast system .. let me know if anyone interested !
Thanks !

 

Guys & @Minolin ,
I'm just delving into the broadcast events a bit more and am having some difficulties. I'm basing what i do on the test broadcast client (ie looking at ReplayControlViewModel.MessageHandler_OnBroadcastEvent). I'm seeing broadcast events for
lap completed, best lap, accident and PenaltyCommMsg(but only when the penalty is cleared), I'm seeing nothing for PenaltyCommMsg when a penalty occurs. Has anyone else seen a penalty message (on whichever client)? I want to check if it is a problem with my code or if these messages just don't come out at the moment.

Also, I'm guessing accidents are only for collisions (not offtrack yellow flags). I'm seeing messages such as

• #vs. #-1030153024
  
• #vs. #1384103232

I'm guessing the number is the player ID/steam ID. Anyone know the significance of one being negative? Does it indicate potential fault or one car behind another?

EDIT: Come to think of it, is there any way of retrieving the player ID? I seem to remember it is in result files and shared memory, but would be nice to get at it from broadcast to see who the accident is between

Also, I'd dearly love to be able to differentiate between 2018/2019 for recording results. Does anyone have any tips to determine this -either via broadcast api, shared memory or whatever?
Cheers,
Doug

...in addition, if anyone has a full set of penaltyCommMsg messages, that would be great so I can report on them. I guess they should all map to those reported on shared memory :

ACC_None = 0
ACC_DriveThrough_Cutting = 1
ACC_StopAndGo_10_Cutting = 2
ACC_StopAndGo_20_Cutting = 3
ACC_StopAndGo_30_Cutting = 4
ACC_Disqualified_Cutting = 5
ACC_RemoveBestLaptime_Cutting = 6
ACC_DriveThrough_PitSpeeding = 7
ACC_StopAndGo_10_PitSpeeding = 8
ACC_StopAndGo_20_PitSpeeding = 9
ACC_StopAndGo_30_PitSpeeding = 10
ACC_Disqualified_PitSpeeding = 11
ACC_RemoveBestLaptime_PitSpeeding = 12
ACC_Disqualified_IgnoredMandatoryPit = 13
ACC_PostRaceTime = 14
ACC_Disqualified_Trolling = 15
ACC_Disqualified_PitEntry = 16
ACC_Disqualified_PitExit = 17
ACC_Disqualified_Wrongway = 18
ACC_DriveThrough_IgnoredDriverStint = 19
ACC_Disqualified_IgnoredDriverStint = 20
ACC_Disqualified_ExceededDriverStintLimit = 21

 

Minolin stated in an earlier post that he thought these may be datatype conversion failures and was going to take a look when he got a chance. It has been a while since so I assume he is busy on 1.4.
