Hi all,

It seems like Racedepartment deleted my iRacing dashboards. So here they are! This is version 5.2 and will be the last version I release. I no longer play iRacing and have gotten rid of my rig due to lack of use plus we have a baby arriving any day now so I'm sure that will keep me more than busy!

DASHBOARD PACK DOWNLOAD HERE!

 

If installing for the first time please do the following:

- Install all the fonts found in the Font folder.
- You really should install the fantastic iRacing extra properties plugin created by RomainRob as these contain some data for most dashboards and fixes the blue flag at at race start issue. They are found in the install folder.
- Copy the 'DashTemplates' & 'NCalc Scripts' folders into your root SimHub folder. This will add all dashboards into your simhub program.
- Setup two mappping buttons in SimHub for Action A & Action B. This will scroll through the different display options on the dashboards. See video:

- Launch limit on the Renault 3.5 works but you need to adjust the button press you would use to active it within the dashboard (map it to the same button you use in game).
See video:

 

If you are updating your to this final version then just cop the two folders into your SimHub root folder.

There are two different versions of dashboard in this pack. One without LEDs and one with. The one without will run on standard 800x480 mini displays out there (not nextion) and is designed to be used with external LEDs. The one with LEDs runs a slightly larger non standard resolution and has a my LED profiles running around the edge in a similar layout to how I had mine.

If you want to use my LED profiles with your external LEDs they are found in the profile folder and you can import them into your simhub and adjust / use how you like. I have them setup in the standard F1 fashion with 3 on each side for flags & warnings and 9 along the top.

 

Cars i've created:
- Audi R18
- Audi RS3
- BMW M8 GTE
- Cadillac CTS-V
- Corvette C7 Daytona Prototype
- Dallara F3
- Derrari 488 GTE & GT3
- Ford GT GTE
- Formula Renault 3.5
- HPD
- Indy Car IR18, DW12 & Classic IndyCar (use same IR18 design)
- Kia Optima
- Mazda MX-5 (all 3 use the same design)
- McLaren MP4-12C GT3
- McLaren MP4-30
- Mercedes AMG GT3
- Pontiac Solstice
- Porsche 718 Cayman
- Porsche 911 Cup
- Porshce 919
- Porsche 991 RSR
- Pro Mazda (uses the same dashboard as the Kia Optima)
- Radical SR8
- RUF RT12 (all variants use the same dashboard)
- Skip Barber
- Spec Racer Ford
- Williams F1 Car
- The 3 RX cars (using the same basic dash)
- Street Stocks (only oval car I've done)

Not every car has been created as I don't own everything nor will I be adding anymore in the future. Enjoy what I created!

IF YOU WANT TO ADD CARS TO SHOW UP ON DIFFERENT DASHBOARDS.

Hi all,

Someone asked how this was possible (new cars released etc...) here is a quick guide on how to add new cars to dashboards in the pack.

GUIDE HERE

 

If you wish to add new dashboards to the pack. I suggest the following:

  1. Create the new dashboard you wish to add in a new file.
  2. Make the dash in a canvas 800x480.
  3. Create a widget with the dashboard in (do not put the dashboard in the root template on DashStudio, it must be within a widget). I suggest naming the Widget the name of the car you are creating for. This will be useful for later.
  4. Save and close DashStudio editor and then SimHub itself.
  5. Within the Simhub file system find the DashStudio folder for the newly created dashboard. 
  6. Within that folder you will find your widget and all the other files associated with it. Copy these and paste them into my iRacing DashStudio folder.
  7. Go back into SimHub and then edit my iRacing dashboard.
  8. In the race page create a new folder and put in the correct place (order matters on these). Name this the dashboard you are adding.
  9. Within that folder add the Widget you just pasted in by selecting Widget at the top and finding the one you added. (Make sure the widget is in the 0-0 position as by default it puts in 10 pixels from top and side.)
  10. Then follow steps 1-4 & 8-10 in the guide above to add the data to show this dashboard when in game.

Hi, 

It's some amazing dashes, first of all thank you for the hard work put into this and shared with the community! 

I'm running them on a USBD480 device connected to the PC through USB. I'm struggling with some lagging, only when running these iracing dashes, not running any of those that comes with simhub, any ideas or suggestions what I could check or do to solve this kind of issue?

Thanks

Hi again 😉
No. This is a Dash Studio dashboard collection.
A Nextion can't display these.

Hi,

Thx for the dashboards! They work really good. The ledsprofile doesn't work. Only the redline and pit limiter works. Is it possible that my leds are named not as you? (Idk, I'm just guessing...)

I can't get other dashboards to work (tried it for the M4 GT4 with a dash downloaded from RaceDepartment), I tried making it into a widget which worked but it's not aligned even after changing the resolution to 800x480. it seems overly complicated

 

Anyone in here who has no issues putting new dashboards in? i'd love some help

 

My discord in case : kamii#4771
