How to use it

First we need to enable the broadcasting API from Assetto Corsa Competizione. To do that navigate to
...\documents\Assetto Corsa Competizione\Config\broadcasting.json
and edit its contents. Replace the text with:

}
    "updListenerPort": 9000,
    "connectionPassword": "asd",
    "commandPassword": ""
}

and you are good to go. Then download the tool, unpack it and start it by running the Start.bat file.

Connecting to the game.

To connect Race Control to the game you have to make sure that you are in a game session. You will need to be either driving or specating a race session. If you are in the main menu or the Server list it will not work.
Then you can start the program by running the Start.bat file. The program will open in the "Settings" page by default. Here you enter your data from the broadcasting.json file. If you have copied the file contents from above the correct values should already be set and you can click connect.

Here you can also adjust the update interval for pulling data from the game. The default value is 250ms or 1/4 of a second. A faster update interval will make the visualisation look more smooth but it will not give you more accuracy. A update interval of less than 30ms is not recommended because it will increase the CPU load and not give additional benifit. An update interval of more than 1000s milliseconds in also not recommended because it increases the risk of missing important event during the session.

Overview

The program has multiple different pages that give you access to different kinds of information. You can switch between the pages using the menu bar at the left hand side of the window.

Click on a the currently selected menu item with the mouse wheel will detach that page into a seperate window. Closing that window will reattach it to the main window.

The available pages are:

  • Live Timing page gives you lots of data about the race in a live timing tabe aswell as providing you with convenient control over the hud and camera.
  • Race control page has options to control the race. It gives you a detailed list of events and incidents that happen during the session.

Race Control has a few Hotkeys available to control the program.
