@repente If you're in the SimHub Discord server I'm @Revan there. I'm hesitant to provide an email here in the forums for fear of bots scraping and seeing it, then spamming me.

Hello! I hope all is well and thank you for your work, 

 

Is it possible to have a plugin for Thrustmaster's new 488 GT3 wheel?

@kemonoteraces I've acquired a 488 GT3 and I'm working on deciphering the packet format already. I will post further updates to the ticket on the repository. I'm not sure exactly how long it will take for me to figure out the packet format but adding support in the plugin once I do should be fairly quick.

Wow! So interesting! If only I could understand what you do, haha but I think it is amazing that you will do it. And also so lucky you got one too! It is a very nice rim. Thank you so much for your kind effort, looking forward to your progress

@gnkyrios I'm using whatever data SimHub is parsing from GT7's telemetry in order to control the LEDs, so it sounds like something is missing from the telemetry. From a quick search I found someone displaying raw telemetry data on screen last year when the secret API was found, but I'm not seeing max RPM among it. I don't know if they just chose not to display it or if it's not present.

 

You could try seeing if max RPM is present in "Car settings" -> "Per car overrides", and if not, manually setting it for whatever car you're in to see if that fixes it.

 

Failing that, it would be handy if you could check the SimHub logs for errors from my plugin, that would help track down if it's an issue in my plugin that's preventing the LEDs from working.

@prodigal-knight I deleted the post since i realized there is no way to connect with the wheel being connected to the console instead of a PC, so i guess its no use.

@gnkyrios Ah, yeah, since nobody's ever made a device where you can have multiple computers simultaneously communicate with a piece of USB hardware that's... difficult.
