Released Latest Build Update rFactor 2 - 1.1112 Now Available!

The fanatec mclaren rim and their new v2 formula style rims have 12 position rotary switches

 

Really, how would you map it?

 

I have DSD Race King. http://derekspearedesigns.com/dsd-race-king-led.html
DSD Button Controller Configuration Utility http://derekspearedesigns.com/technical-guide.html

 

Thats an awesome box. Does it have VESA on the back? Was thinking of being possible to buy 1 VESA arm that you can screw onto anything and then be able to move the box around as you wish.

That button box has rotary encoders not rotary switches.
Rotary encoders are used for things like brake bias, volume up/down etc. They only send out two commands ( one for clockwise, one for anti clockwise ) and they also can be turned infinitely, no end stop.
A rotary switch has, for example, 12 positions and cannot be turned past the first and last position.
Each position can be assigned a command, say for the HUD 1: Damage screen, 2: Tyre wear/temp screen, 3: Timing Screen etc.

Please educate me if I'm incorrect.

Hey Ari, great that the rotary switch works on the dsd, unfortunately I am sure it isn't the same on the new fanatec wheels. My understanding is that the game has to allow the functionality for it.

 

I was just going by what was written on the DSD page, 5 - Two Way Rotary Encoders.

 

Yes it seem to be wrong. I send mail to DSD about it.

Thank you so much for all the fixes and added features of this latest build, especially the AI liveries, which will make a lot of the people doing skins happy. Good job and quick response!

 

where can i check what Build ID my steamcmd server has ?

 

Have a look in your server's steamapps folder for appmanifest_400300.acf, open (I use notepad++) and check line 11.

 

When you say the AI now show custom liveries, does that mean they will randomly select alts? Or do we still have to generate a custom car from scratch?

 

I would think you would have to use the tuning screen to create an alt, then it should be available from then on. (just guessing tho...)

 

Yeah, I was just trying to understand what that patch note means specifically as I'm starting to set up races with AI that could use custom liveries.
