    i had a diffrent problem all together on my desktop as it worked perfectly on my laptop, i checked and double checked and it still crashed and gave me an error message about .net framework, so i went hunting for a fix i did a windows repair and reinstalled .net framework and in the end i thought bugger it ill buy a new ssd 1tb and reinstall windows, while doing this fixed it is but the sim project on a slow process as the ssd wasnt cheap and with me not working due to my heart and kidney failure itll be a slow process anyway but most of my mone yis going on the raing sim im pleased to say :)

    If you are using SimTools 2 then yes you need the pro license for Game Dash: https://simtools.us/license/

    hey mate ive played around with diffrent bit rates ive gone from 1 up to 35 in 5 increments when i got to 10 i had 2 little zeros in the button right hand corner but ihave noticed that if i leave iracing running and close the dash and restart it it shows the data off the dash of the car but its not moving its only showing what it sees when it first opens the dash...i looked at the script but i could find anything about output bits.. i dont no what im doing so there suprise i couldnt find it lololol

    Your talking about the update rate buddy.

    I'm talking about the com speed.
    You should make sure the interface speed matches the ard speed or you will get communication errors.

    What is the dash to dash thing?
    Did you build it?

    57600 is where everythings on the screen properly every other one the screen is all over the place... the fella that made the dash told me yesterday that the script has been done for simtool 1.3 and wont work on dash 2 i asked if i could learn how to mod it but ive not heard back to see if its possible..the 2 dashes are ..the left one is the dash ive built the arduino one the one on the right is the dash of the AMG GT3 on iracing im just showing that the info on my dash is correct to the info on the cars dash i just cant get it moving...if i leave iracing running and turn off the dash then change gear or start driving and plug the dash back in it will read whatever the cars dash said at the time it opened so i feel that its something simple to fix it..if its in the script im not sure im really trying to learn about how thing script stuff works..im starting an online course to try and get on top of this.. ass you no i had issues with my simulator to and had to reach out for help.. without you guys it would never work happy to say its not missed abeat... and id also like to be able to help people out and make some new ideas ive had to share with everyone..

    There is no reason why something that worked with 1.3 would not work with 2.0.
    I mean you can configure both to send the same data.
    Have you tried it with any other games buddy?

    sorry for the delay yes ive tried it on LFS with the same settings which are wrong im guessing because it went crazy showing numbers that make no sence and where all over the place..i worked out the bit rate thing and yes its matched ive tried 3 arduino boards all do differnt things 1 has all info frozen the 2nd has all info but the gear indicator and frozen the 3rd has all info and 2 extra tiny circles 0.0 in the bottom right corner they look like they could be part of the screen as it fits in a spot nice but im not sure..
