Some update on the custom pacenotes reader:
We've got the automatic stage detection working with extradata="3", but unfortunately some stages have exact same distance for their reverse versions so there will be a checkbox enabled for such stages to choose pacenotes for the reverse version. Stages can be also choosen manually. 

Second thing is countdown - it was working until we've discovered that some of the new stages from Finland and Sweden are sending current distance as 0 before the start of stage - on all other stages the distance is between range of -1.01 to -0.75 (depending on the car and stage, there could be edge cases as well). This is listed as a need-to-fix bug, at the moment without much idea how to approach it to avoid countdown in the service area (on older stages the distance in service area is around -15m so the animation of reaching the start line can be done). 
Edit; well, maybe mapping a position x at start line for each car will do the job. Listing it...

Keep up the work!   I see you could be building a library for access to this functionality?  It would be great to output to an adruino display or something like that, would be KA for my racepit.

Sure! All of this code is/will be open sourced. I made more of an OOP from the clutter that there was from original processing one single class. 

If you want to make a fork/commit to the alpha/pre-beta version just drop me a message and I'll send you a link to BitBucket repo.

P.S.The core is based on UDP receiving from Cortextual and Zeb, so most credit should go to them. 

P.S.2 If CM's will keep the UDP output and (hopefuly) add some more info (and keep it in one matter, not like currently between stages)  this will work on future titles. 

P.S.3. @KickUp @Hatward  @CMMcBabe @ChristinaMc @Hoo I know there's something up your sleeve (maybe a next title). Can we get  an update for the UDP system, and a current stage number to work as expected, like guys in F1 does? ;)

Update on another issue, that might be useful for devs.

@Hatward @KickUp
Almost confirmed that one of the new cars (particularly Alpine) always sends brakes as 0.0 value while breaking to the starting line (in animation), other cars [might find some other] don't do that and there's always a value above 0.0 (full brake pedal). 
Is this expected behavior?

So the new cars break before even starting? Good to know. I assume the older chaps from UK will find that to be a touch of the olden days xD

Not sure people are doing personalised skin requests anymore.

I thought one would be cool for the Kadett i'm entering in the RaceDept. Season 8 champ.  I'm entering under Team Dirt Central so there are two Kadett's being entered.

Nice work, thank you!
Can I make you a couple of questions?
1st: Is in your plans the Roger Clark's Cossack MK2?
2nd: Have you planned to convert in 4K your Camel M3 and 4 Rombi Corse 131?

Thank you!

He JuanDiaz,

at the moment i am creating a Guy Wilks livery. Gotta disappoint you on the Roger Clark car. The fiat i haven't decided yet.

There is already a bmw camel out there, a bit different from mine so you might love that one http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/bmw-m3-camel.10960/  If you are satified with this one let me know so i can create other liveries :-)

[F2CMaDMaXX 505]

Oh yeah, this MKII livery is great, thankyou :)  Most of us are just clicking the like or awesome buttons and not replying.

I would second the request for the Roger Clark Cossack car, POO 505R still exists, totally original !

Oooooh!

@RyuMakkuro

I rallied IRL with Roger Clark. Yes, I'm very old! Is there any way you could make this skin?

Hmmm... haven't done any liveries in a LONG while, but I can give it a shot. I hope there are some good shots of that livery on the internet though, cause with just this one I can't do much.

[cjl9 12]

OK. Thank you.

Loeb revival...

Body is 25 characters too short.

Yep, those should serve well. Will get on it once I'll finish something. Shouldn't take long. Although still need to find a good shot of the back and top.

[OeildeLynx 7]

Good evening everybody and happy New Year to all !

I have a question for you: I try to modify the 3D model of the Alpine to show permantly the additional lights pods were gone up on the car for night special. Do you know what are files to edit for it?

[hoonhead 0]

Loeb/Elena, why a VW...just because i can :-) 

Body is 25 characters too short.

[KevM 44]

Has anyone ever skinned Bertie Fisher's Toughmac M3?

I actually think its this car/reg in the game?

[Porkhammer 78]

I'd absolutely love that Bertie BMW.
