This is a simple cli program that plays a sound when you need to upshift in iRacing. I created it to work on Linux but it also could be made to work on Mac and Windows.
It consists of three main files:
- the binary
shiftindicator - an audio file
- the
shiftindicator.ymlconfiguration file
sudo apt-get install libopenal-dev build-essentials gcc-mingw-w64-i686
go get -d -u github.com/leonb/wineshm-go
cd `go env GOPATH`/src/github.com/leonb/wineshm-go/
make
go get -d -u github.com/leonb/irsdk-go
cd `go env GOPATH`/src/github.com/leonb/irsdk-go/
make
go get -u github.com/codegangsta/cli
go get -u golang.org/x/mobile/exp/audio
go get -u github.com/leonb/shiftindicatorIf you installed the program with the help of go get you could just run
shiftindicator in your terminal (and your $PATH is setup right). If you
downloaded the binary package, just cd to the directory where you extracted the
binary and run ./shiftindicator.
./shiftindicator

2015/08/23 00:28:49 onSessionEndThe configuratio file shiftindicator.yml is search for in the following
places:
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME(usually~/.config/)- the current directory (
.) - the directory where the binary is placed
The following things can be customised:
- volume of soundfile played (0 - 1.0)
- the soundfile played (has to be a
.wavfile) - the minimum time between beeps (when your rpm's are hovering over the optimal shiftpoint)
- the shiftpoints per car
