    Please swap effect description 25 and 26 in the rfactor plugin!

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    The ouput values of effect 25 and 26 do not match the description. They are swapped.
    longitudal is vertical, and vertical is longitudal.
    Please switch them.

    Regards

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    24 - lateral g-force (curves)
    25 - vertical g-force (altitude, track surface)
    26 - longitudal g-force (throttle/brake)

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    So muss es sein:
    24 - lateral g-force (curves) - X
    25 - vertical g-force (altitude, track surface) - Y
    26 - longitudal g-force (throttle/brake) - Z

    Weiß nicht wie ich die Rotationsachsen in Rfactor prüfen soll. wie ein Flugzeug kann man die Autos nicht drehen.
    Aber analog zu oben:
    27 - pitch (Nick) - X
    28 - yaw (Gier) - Y
    29 - roll (Roll) - Z

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    My apologies to having caused some unnecessary headache!

    The effect descriptions for 25 and 26 have been right before. There was no swapping at all. Just in my mind.
    I was used from Profiler1 to assign the throttle/brake effects to the Y-axis, but that is wrong, concerning a 3 dimensional coordinate system.
    Throttle/brake are movements on the Z-axis of course.

    After sketching the descripitons above, I noticed the error in reasoning.

    However, here is an improved list with better effect descriptions, so it should be easier to find the proper effects:

    Translational axes:

    21 - X - speed left/right
    22 - Y - speed up/down
    23 - Z - speed forward/backward

    24 - X - lateral g-forces - curves
    25 - Y - vertical g-forces - bumps, track-surface
    26 - Z - longitudal g-forces throttle/brake

    Rotational axes:

    27 - X - pitch
    28 - Y - yaw
    29 - Z - roll

    30 - X - pitch accelleration
    31 - Y - yaw accelleration
    32 - Z - roll accelleration

    Regards
    Christian

    Yes, but with regard to this list:

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    Is it possible to get more gauge output data from rFactor than what is listed on http://www.x-simulator.de/beta/html/rfactor.html ?

    Is it possible to output all the data that is available through the rF HUD?

    Just a couple of things I personally would really like to have:
    - sector/split times
    - flags (flags are on the list of game values to send to a gauge, and on the list at the site above, but not implemented in the rF plugin)
    - gap to driver ahead and driver behind

    Very good changes, much easier to switch. I'll test some of it.

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    I tried longitudinal on auto and the values jump around like crazy. The seat goes back, forward, back, forward, forward when acceleration, back when stopping, then reversed, no rules.

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    I have verified that it would match with this list here:
    [​IMG]
    But it does NOT match with the X-Sim Plugin list order.

    I told you guys before...
    So you should use the old rfactor plugin, and not the latest, posted on the last page.
    post11588.html#p11588
    I will delete the download link for that new/wrong plugin now, and close this thread soon, as it may lead into even more trouble.

    Once again. The old plugin was OK the new one is not OK!

    Christian

    Re: Rfactor effects 25 and 26 swapped!

    I'm planning to release an rFactor profile this weekend, but I need to check to make sure if I'm using the right version now. Can anyone please post the correct last modified date of the rFactor Plugin that is officially supported please?

    I tested this one. It doesn't seem right to me.

    That's right. And I will delete the last plugin update to prevent more confusion.
