[REL] DAMPlugin for rF2

ATTACHING MY FILES
I tried restarting the game several times but it doesn't create the damp.ini

Without knowing how older versions go, just checking did you grab the 0.931 version from the first post?

Apart from that normally I'd suspect runtimes, but that seems unlikely with LMU. You might want to install (repair) them anyway, by running all of the files in Support\Runtimes.

Seems like it's not getting added to the custompluginvariables list.
add a , (comma) after the second to last bracket, add another line, and insert:


"DAMPlugin.dll":{
" Enabled":1
}


That should activate the plugin
 
Hello again Lazza; I have another question: Vehicle Track (blue), which is above Wheel base, I suppose it is the Wheel track data, track width, is it correct?
Hey, yep, track width being centre to centre of the wheels on an axle.

So depending what you're going to do with it you'd also have to consider whether you want to use a single value or set up another one in the case you have different track front and rear.

And that's assuming you actually have a reason to use track width. The default project doesn't use it at all, so unless you add it to some custom maths calculations it will have zero effect.
 
Thanks for your answers, I wanted to be clear; I was looking for where to put the front and rear track width data and I only guessed that data above the wheel base. As you said, I may not use all of that data, like the weight, the size of the tires (circumference, diameter, sizes, etc.), although for some mathematical formulas that I have seen I may use them, even if it is to learn. to create appropriate Motec templates.
 
Did anyone managed to get variance, or lap delta, into an usable channel?
There are 2 existing channels for "session elapsed time" and "lap start elapsed time"
I subtracted one from another to create the "lap time" channel that is my momentary time anywhere on track.
I can even use and overlay lap to check for delta, and it matches with motec own "variance" F3 tool, as shown below:

Now with this channel working, I should be able to use the "variance_time(x)" function to compare the elapsed time between my main and overlay selected lap, as described in the funcion info:
dl210qA.png


so a math channel called "delta" as
variance_time('lap time')
should in theory give me the delta between two selected laps, in a way that I could use it as color in the track map for example, or inject into other maths.
But this is not working, the resulting channel is just an empty fixed value.

Can't find my error on the formulas, I appreciate if anyone can help me with this.

I think you won't be able to do this, as it says it's based on time. You'd need a distance comparison in order to have a time difference, which you can switch to for graphs (F9?) but if this function only uses time then you're stuck. (Is there a variance_distance function? I don't have motec in front of me)

Thank you! It works now
 
Hi guys, this graph is for fuel usage per lap

Anyway I could get the max value each lap instead of the elapsed usage?
like for example the channel "last laptime"

Maybe you can do it using the "Channel Report" component, it has multiple options for each channel: min, max, avg, etc..

If it doesn't work, you'll need to create a math channel doing a calculation based on current_lap channel.
 
Ciao a tutti ho provato motec e non trovo i dati delle sospensioni, ho letto i post precedenti ma non riesco ad avere i dati.
Ho anche modificato [Global Channel Options] Data rate = 5 e anche [Base Channel Config] - Suspension = 3

You need to activate the Suspension_1 group per this list https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/damplugin-for-rf2.49363/page-2#post-819448

"Suspension Position" is what i2Pro uses for suspension analysis (damper movement).
 
found it thanks now it works well, I tried to do a few laps and the data seems correct to me.
but if I open a lap done in the past, that is before activating the channels, I don't see the suspension data, is it correct that it is like this?
Yes. The data is only captured (saved to file) with those channels enabled. Previous files will be missing that data.
