    Hello all

    I recently learned the gauge system In x-sim to write some gauges I need for iRacing. I use force sender to send data to 2nd pc where i have USB monitor for displaying gauges.

    It all works great but i notice data like lap times, fuel, position, lap number are missing from the data that comes into the force profiler on 2nd pc.

    I would like to use some of this info in my gauges. Right now all i can use is rpm, gear and speed. Is this data available and for some reason i am not seeing it ? Or does the plug in not retrieve these settings from iracing API.

    Kind regards
    Chris

    Take a look at the input section in the profiler when iRacing is running. Be sure to scroll up and down. All available data is shown there.

    Thanks Bernard

    I did and there is no data showing for those items like lap, position, fuel etc... only data for gear, speed, rpm and all the force data needed for simxperience. Strange as the data is available so whover wrote the plug in must have decided not to include that data for some reason

    Yes that is strange since the iRacing API outputs this data. I'm sure it can be easily added to the plugin if there are any volunteers for the work. My schedule is currently rather crazy.
