Known Quirks

Section titled “Known Quirks”
  • Packet deduplication: DR Sim Manager skips processing when the packet ID hasn’t changed, ensuring no redundant data is used.
  • Works with Content Manager: If you launch AC via Content Manager, telemetry still works normally through shared memory.
  • Modded cars: Telemetry works with any car, including modded vehicles. The vehicle name is read from the session data.

Troubleshooting

Section titled “Troubleshooting”

No telemetry data

Section titled “No telemetry data”
  • Ensure Assetto Corsa is running and you are in a driving session (not in menus).
  • Close any other applications that might be reading AC’s shared memory exclusively.
  • Restart both Assetto Corsa and DR Sim Manager.

Motion stops mid-session

Section titled “Motion stops mid-session”
  • This can happen if Assetto Corsa is minimized or loses focus in some configurations. Keep the game window active.

Wrong car name displayed

Section titled “Wrong car name displayed”
  • The car name is read from AC’s static session data. If it shows incorrectly, try restarting the session.
