image

  • Feat : Add reverse heave option for motion

Special thanks to the Asetek team which made SimHub "creations" available through RaceHub. I truly believe having "options" to use the hardware the way you want is important and Asetek had this open mind from the very beginning about it for their new Invicta Formula wheel !

9.4.2 - 12/08/2024

Thanks again for the warm welcome to the motion plugin ! As next steps I had to choose what was the top priority, and the joystick to motion won !

But instead of making it a sad flat no life "joystick motion" I added a new effect based on audio ! Any games have audio, those with telemetry, those without, and you will be surprised how informative it can be when converted to motion ! The best of it ? It works with any games, with or without telemetry !

Motion

New game

  • Feat : HydroSim support https://www.uhlhydroplanes.com/hydrosim . The author, @skaughtx0r put lot of love into building us a quality telemetry ! It's a nice little game, and if you are using motion get ready for some high speed full of sensations sailing with some crazy power engines roaring !

  • Fix : Protection against invalid normalized track position which would make Simhub hang (F1 24)

Almost a control mapper V2 !

Along of the obvious UI refresh, some significant "quality of life" changes has been added of this new version :

  • Reworked home page, instead of focusing on a long list of games you might not use, space is given to the features you are using, devices, bass shakers, motors ...
  • Widescreen friendly : The center content is not stretched anymore on an ultra wide screen
  • Rework on the devices UI, the UI has been reorganized to give more room to the important features
  • Wheels and button boxes with editable buttons colors now have up to 4 switchable color presets
  • Wheels and button boxes with editable buttons colors now use the devices preview when it's possible (led editor, color presets preview)
  • Wheels and button boxes now offer a single led brightness slider.
  • New day and night mode available globally allowing you to quickly switch brightness presets and keep your eyes safe when room light goes down.
  • Profile system (bass shakers, leds ...) has been reworked to now allow per car profile storage and switching.
  • Quick profile switching combo boxes everywhere it applies
  • Profiles in profile manager are now sorted based on the current game (current game first, generic profiles next, then all the other games)
  • Automatic device detection : during device addition SimHub will suggest you the detected devices.
  • Leds profiles has been reworked to be much more compact when stored in settings files (warning the profiles loaded/exported by this new version are not compliant with older SimHub versions)
  • Control mapper plugin : new arduino firmware allowing to show 3 controllers and raise the possible remapped inputs to 384.
