I need to integrate ETS2 telemetry with a custom third-party steering wheel. In order to use force feedback, I need to call the steering wheel's specific functions through a DLL:

public void UpdateFBBWheel(float leftPressure, float rightPressure, float wheelType)
public void UpdateRoad(float friction, float rugosity)
public void UpdateFBBDynamic(float speed, float leftLateralForce, float leftShock, float rightLateralForce, float rightShock)
public void SetWheelVibration(float intensity)

I already have access to the game's telemetry, but I'm not sure how to calculate the values ​​that the DLL requires.

All values ​​that I pass to the DLL must be between 0.0 and 1.0

Can you give us some more information on the third party nature of the project?  Maybe there is some more information on what it is you need to do.  Because it sounds a little odd to me that a DLL needs to be fed information manually, instead of passing this information on to a device ready to listen for it.

At first I was inclined to say that this required passing game properties to an Arduino, but that is not possible since the traffic needs to happen the other way around (at least that's what I'm getting from it, I'm definitely not an expert on these types of things).

Another thing I feel could be the case here is that these values should come from ShakeIT or Joystick libraries in some way, but I could very much be wrong.
