Unfortunately this version introduced couple of new crashes.

  • Loading a non-animated GIF image crashes the app.
  • Potential crash on the networking when app is closed.

These issues are fixed and update will be pushed pretty soon.

what about this for windows users, also how can i just download the older version that worked, windows store only installs latest version, would be great if we could download previous versions.

ok i figured it out, it crashes right after you configure the connection for racing simulations and it attempts to listen on the port you set specify, can you fix this PLEASE!

RealDash version 2.6.9Exiting RealDash occurs when backing out of the “Add Gauge” selection via the drop-down menu.

Sure, working on it. What game you are connecting to?

Hi, thanks, its for Forza Horizon, but i dont think the game matters as it just crashes no matter what port is set as soon as realdash attempts to listen, even if no telemetry is being fed into realdash.

Hey Jani;

The 2.6.9 version broke our Realdash tools; It seems that single button press now sends value 12X times per press. This breaks our serial engine in modules. Was working fine with 2.6.8 and previous versions. PTAL.

BTW, I have lost access to my EE_STEVE account, it does not seem to be linked to my email anymore.

That was done for 2.6.9 for purpose to overcome very busy CAN bus. This guarantees that message will go thru.

You know I’m using your modules in DEATHFISH 2, and have not noticed any negative issues with this change.
