Hello!
First, I love this program, I bought almost all the dashboards for it, and I’m trying to use it with FH4. Most everything works, however, some of the math appears to be incorrect, and I have a few questions about input mapping.
First, the boost value seems to be incorrect. Dashboards that have the boost gauge set to “calculated boost bar/psi” or “calculated boost psi” report a boost level of 7.4, when the game is outputting a level of 22 psi.
I can make it work by changing the boost input to manifold absolute pressure and applying V/0.14503, but that means I have to go into every dashboard that I have (as I said, I bought most of them) and then re-save them all, adjust all the parameters, etc etc. This seems like a silly amount of work, when all the software has to do is display the value from the game.
Second, I’ve read everything I can find, looked through the xml export, read all the docs, etc, and I can’t figure out how to simply tell the software how to map the boost value coming from the game just as a straight up decimal value, no calculations, and put that somewhere in the mappings, I.E make it so that “dummy 01” (or whatever) displays the game’s boost value.
All I can find are OBD2 docs, and there doesn’t seem to be much information on how realdash gets data from FH4, so I’m kinda lost editing the xml. Ideally, I’d like “Boost bar/psi” to just grab the boost value from the game, so all the dashboards just work by default without having to spend hours going into them all and editing them to work.
If anyone can help, that would be fantastic! I’m really looking forward to completing my racing sim setup using realdash as my dashboard and a big tv for the hood view in game.
