FX Unleashed 0.6.1

Updates itself from 0.5.x and 0.6.0: the banner (or the About tab) offers it, one click installs it, Roll back is there if you want the old one.

What's new

• The LMP3 Ginetta G61 dash. Converted 1:1 from Redadeg's SimHub dash on lmu-dashboards.com and
  checked item by item against the original: fuel per lap and fuel level, speed, gear, best / last / predicted lap, brake temperatures,
  TC and TC cut (FPS), oil and water temperatures, the headlights, the pit limiter banner, the ignition-off screen and the ignition-on
  logo. The tyre panel has three pages, like the original: tyre pressures, brake temperatures (blue when cold, red when hot) and tyre
  temperatures; bind Next / Previous page to a wheel button. It comes with the plugin and is in the library.
• SLIPSTREAM: "THIS LAP WON'T COUNT" in full. The invalid-lap screen showed "THIS LAP WON'T": one command to the screen holds 58
  characters, and the label's position and colours took the rest. Fixed (SLIPSTREAM 1.0.1, also in the library).
• Logos on wheels without the screen's RAM patch. A picture with a transparent background (a logo) was drawn with a square of the
  wrong colour around it; it's now drawn on what's under it. Dashes with such pictures also draw a little less (the Mustang: about 18 %
  less when the dash first appears).
• Checks for dash makers. The designer's check and fxdash check now report a text the wheel would cut (too long for one screen
  command, even when it fits its box), with what to do about it.

Everything else is as in 0.6.0.

Requirements

SimHub 9.11 or newer, SimPro Manager 3 (V3.2.2 tested) for standard mode, an FX Pro or GT Neo. Tested by the maintainer on one FX Pro on an Alpha EVO
base: other bases, wheels and games may behave differently, so please report what you find (Discord or GitHub issues).

Install and update

From 0.5.x or 0.6.0: let it update itself (About tab). New install: close SimHub, copy User.FXProRpmSync.dll from the zip into your SimHub folder, start SimHub,
turn the plugin on. Guide: https://fxunleashed.com/start/

Custom firmware for Unleashed mode

Unleashed mode (your own dashes, all 38 lights, the dash button) needs our custom firmware for the wheel, build 9 or newer. Standard mode needs nothing.

The whole path in one guide: fxunleashed.com/start (about 15 minutes, every step says what you should see)

1. Custom firmware: download it here and flash it with SimPro (Settings > Update > Manual Firmware Flash). Please read the short notice first: it is your wheel's own program, at your own risk, and Simagic's original is always one flash away.
2. This plugin (the zip below).
3. The screen's RAM patch (picture memory): optional, but highly recommended.
4. Your dashes and lights.
