BarryBL 4,353 Posted July 2, 2020 The F1 series of games support the output of certain game data across UDP connections. This data can be used supply race information to external applications, or to drive certain hardware (e.g. motion platforms, force feedback steering wheels and LED devices). The following information summarises these data structures so that developers of supporting hardware or software are able to configure these to work correctly with the F1 game. If you cannot find the information that you require, or spot any issues with this specification then please let us know below. Packet Information Packet Types Each packet can now carry different types of data rather than having one packet which contains everything. A header has been added to each packet as well so that versioning can be tracked and it will be easier for applications to check they are interpreting the incoming data in the correct way. Please note that all values are encoded using Little Endian format. All data is packed. The following data types are used in the structures: Type Description uint8 Unsigned 8-bit integer int8 Signed 8-bit integer uint16 Unsigned 16-bit integer int16 Signed 16-bit integer float Floating point (32-bit) uint64 Unsigned 64-bit integer Packet Header Each packet has the following header: struct PacketHeader { uint16 m_packetFormat; // 2020 uint8 m_gameMajorVersion; // Game major version - "X.00" uint8 m_gameMinorVersion; // Game minor version - "1.XX" uint8 m_packetVersion; // Version of this packet type, all start from 1 uint8 m_packetId; // Identifier for the packet type, see below uint64 m_sessionUID; // Unique identifier for the session float m_sessionTime; // Session timestamp uint32 m_frameIdentifier; // Identifier for the frame the data was retrieved on uint8 m_playerCarIndex; // Index of player's car in the array // ADDED IN BETA 2: uint8 m_secondaryPlayerCarIndex; // Index of secondary player's car in the array (splitscreen) // 255 if no second player }; Packet IDs The packets IDs are as follows: Packet Name Value Description Motion 0 Contains all motion data for player’s car – only sent while player is in control Session 1 Data about the session – track, time left Lap Data 2 Data about all the lap times of cars in the session Event 3 Various notable events that happen during a session Participants 4 List of participants in the session, mostly relevant for multiplayer Car Setups 5 Packet detailing car setups for cars in the race Car Telemetry 6 Telemetry data for all cars Car Status 7 Status data for all cars such as damage Final Classification 8 Final classification confirmation at the end of a race Lobby Info 9 Information about players in a multiplayer lobby Motion Packet The motion packet gives physics data for all the cars being driven. There is additional data for the car being driven with the goal of being able to drive a motion platform setup. N.B.

This is controlled by the “Your Telemetry” setting in the Telemetry options. The options are: Restricted (Default) – other players viewing the UDP data will not see values for your car Public – all other players can see all the data for your car Note: You can always see the data for the car you are driving regardless of the setting. The following data items are set to zero if the player driving the car in question has their “Your Telemetry” set to “Restricted”: Car status packet m_fuelInTank m_fuelCapacity m_fuelMix m_fuelRemainingLaps m_frontBrakeBias m_frontLeftWingDamage m_frontRightWingDamage m_rearWingDamage m_engineDamage m_gearBoxDamage m_tyresWear (All four wheels) m_tyresDamage (All four wheels) m_ersDeployMode m_ersStoreEnergy m_ersDeployedThisLap m_ersHarvestedThisLapMGUK m_ersHarvestedThisLapMGUH m_tyresAgeLaps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BarryBL 4,353 Posted July 2, 2020 FAQS How do I enable the UDP Telemetry Output? In F1 2020, UDP telemetry output is controlled via the in-game menus. To enable this, enter the options menu from the main menu (triangle / Y), then enter the settings menu - the UDP option will be at the bottom of the list. From there you will be able to enable / disable the UDP output, configure the IP address and port for the receiving application, toggle broadcast mode and set the send rate. Broadcast mode transmits the data across the network subnet to allow multiple devices on the same subnet to be able to receive this information. When using broadcast mode it is not necessary to set a target IP address, just a target port for applications to listen on. Advanced PC Users: You can additionally edit the game’s configuration XML file to configure UDP output. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml You should see the tag: <motion> ... <udp enabled="false" broadcast=”false” ip="127.0.0.1" port="20777" sendRate=”20” format=”2020” yourTelemetry=”restricted” /> ... </motion> Here you can set the values manually. Note that any changes made within the game when it is running will overwrite any changes made manually. Note the enabled flag is now a state. What has changed since last year? F1 2020 sees the following changes to the UDP specification: Penalties have been added as a new Event Type Weather forecast data is now available in session packets for upcoming sessions Reduced the size of the surface and inner tyre temperature fields in the Car Telemetry to reduce overall packet size as more vehicles need to be added My Team allows an extra team to race – this means that all the places in the packets where 20 cars were used, 22 are now needed. N.B. this will not be fixed in old formats (2019, 2018, legacy) – if you are in the “My Team” career mode with any format other than 2020 specified, no data will be output. All other game modes will function as before Added Vietnamese and Barbadian nationalities Added Final Classification packet for end of race results Made m_gridPosition the actual numerical position, not 0-based (only in 2020 data) Added Lobby Info packet to send data to UDP when in a multiplayer lobby Added number of laps the current set of tyres have been used for in status packet Split the tyre pressures in Car Setups packet into RL, RR, FL, FR to reflect the game changes Added secondary player car index to packet headers for splitscreen Added MFD Panel Index to the car telemetry packet for both players Added best sector times and lap numbers to the laps packet as they cannot always be recorded correctly (e.g. fast-forwarding time) – N.B. the order has been slightly rearranged to tidy up Changed all sector times in lap data packet to be in milliseconds (uint16 instead of float) to reduce packet size so other things can be added Added indicator for DRS faults to the car status packet Updated ERS mode values Speed trap triggered event added Added DRS activation distance to indicate whether the car has passed detection and DRS will be available in the subsequent activation zone Suggested gear added to the car telemetry packet What is the order of the wheel arrays? All wheel arrays are in the following order: 0 – Rear Left (RL) 1 – Rear Right (RR) 2 – Front Left (FL) 3 – Front Right (FR) Do the vehicle indices change? During a session, each car is assigned a vehicle index. This will not change throughout the session and all the arrays that are sent use this vehicle index to dereference the correct piece of data. What encoding format is used? All values are encoded using Little Endian format. Are the data structures packed? Yes, all data is packed, there is no padding used. Will there always be 20 cars in the data structures? No, for F1 2020, there is a new feature called “My Team” which allows an extra team to be present on the grid. This means that all previous places where 20 cars were used, 22 is now the maximum. If “My Team” is not active however, most games modes will act as before and have a maximum of 20. Note that if your UDP format is 2019, 2018 or legacy and you are in “My Team” career mode, no UDP output will be produced because of this imitation. There is still the data item called m_numActiveCars in the participants packet which tells you how many cars are active in the race. However, you should check the individual result status of each car in the lap data to see if that car is actively providing data. If it is not “Invalid” or “Inactive” then the corresponding vehicle index has valid data. How often are updated packets sent? For the packets which get updated at “Rate as specified in the menus” you can be guaranteed that on the frame that these get sent they will all get sent together and will never be separated across frames. This of course relies on the reliability of your network as to whether they are received correctly as everything is sent via UDP. Other packets that get sent at specific rates can arrive on any frame. If you are connected to the game when it starts transmitting the first frame will contain the following information to help initialise data structures on the receiving application: Packets sent on Frame 1: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.000) Session Participants Car Setups Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status As an example, assuming that you are running at 60Hz with 60Hz update rate selected in the menus then you would expect to see the following packets and timestamps: Packets sent on Frame 2: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.016) Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status … Packets sent on Frame 31: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.5) Session (since 2 updates per second) Car Setups (since 2 updates per second) Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status Will my old app still work with F1 2020? F1 2020 uses a new format for the UDP data. However, earlier formats of the data are still supported so that most older apps implemented using the previous data formats should work with little or no change from the developer. To use the old formats, please enter the UDP options menu and set “UDP Format” to either “F1 2019”, “F1 2018” or “Legacy” (for F1 2017 and earlier). Specifications for the legacy format can be seen here: http://forums.codemasters.com/discussion/53139/f1-2017-d-box-and-udp-output-specification/p1. Specifications for the F1 2018 format can be seen here: https://forums.codemasters.com/topic/30601-f1-2018-udp-specification/. How do I enable D-BOX output? D-BOX output is currently supported on the PC platform. In F1 2020, the D-BOX activation can be controlled via the menus. Navigate to Game Options->Settings->UDP Telemetry Settings->D-BOX to activate this on your system. Advanced PC Users: It is possible to control D-BOX by editing the games’ configuration XML file. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml You should see the tag: <motion> <dbox enabled="false" /> … </motion> Set the “enabled” value to “true” to allow the game to output to your D-BOX motion platform. Note that any changes made within the game when it is running will overwrite any changes made manually. How can I disable in-game support for LED device? The F1 game has native support for some of the basic features supported by some external LED devices, such as the Leo Bodnar SLI Pro and the Fanatec steering wheels. To avoid conflicts between Codemasters’ implementation and any third-party device managers on the PC platform it may be necessary to disable the native support. This is done using the following led_display flags in the hardware_settings_config.xml. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml The flags to enabled/disable LED output are: <led_display fanatecNativeSupport="true" sliProNativeSupport="true" /> The sliProNativeSupport flag controls the output to SLI Pro devices. The fanatecNativeSupport flag controls the output to Fanatec (and some related) steering wheel LEDs. Set the values for any of these to “false” to disable them and avoid conflicts with your own device manager. Please note there is an additional flag to manually control the LED brightness on the SLI Pro: <led_display sliProForceBrightness="127" /> This option (using value in the range 0-255) will be ignored when setting the sliProNativeSupport flag to “false”. Also note it is now possible to edit these values on the fly via the Game Options->Settings->UDP Telemetry Settings menu. Can I configure the UDP output using an XML File? PC users can edit the game’s configuration XML file to configure UDP output. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml You should see the tag: <motion> ... <udp enabled="false" broadcast=”false” ip="127.0.0.1" port="20777" sendRate=”20” format=”2020” yourTelemetry="restricted" /> ... </motion> Here you can set the values manually. Note that any changes made within the game when it is running will overwrite any changes made manually.

N.B. this will not be fixed in old formats (2019, 2018, legacy) – if you are in the “My Team” career mode with any format other than 2020 specified, no data will be output. All other game modes will function as before Added Vietnamese and Barbadian nationalities Added Final Classification packet for end of race results Made m_gridPosition the actual numerical position, not 0-based (only in 2020 data) Added Lobby Info packet to send data to UDP when in a multiplayer lobby Added number of laps the current set of tyres have been used for in status packet Split the tyre pressures in Car Setups packet into RL, RR, FL, FR to reflect the game changes Added secondary player car index to packet headers for splitscreen Added MFD Panel Index to the car telemetry packet for both players Added best sector times and lap numbers to the laps packet as they cannot always be recorded correctly (e.g. fast-forwarding time) – N.B. the order has been slightly rearranged to tidy up Changed all sector times in lap data packet to be in milliseconds (uint16 instead of float) to reduce packet size so other things can be added Added indicator for DRS faults to the car status packet Updated ERS mode values Speed trap triggered event added Added DRS activation distance to indicate whether the car has passed detection and DRS will be available in the subsequent activation zone Suggested gear added to the car telemetry packet What is the order of the wheel arrays? All wheel arrays are in the following order: 0 – Rear Left (RL) 1 – Rear Right (RR) 2 – Front Left (FL) 3 – Front Right (FR) Do the vehicle indices change? During a session, each car is assigned a vehicle index. This will not change throughout the session and all the arrays that are sent use this vehicle index to dereference the correct piece of data. What encoding format is used? All values are encoded using Little Endian format. Are the data structures packed? Yes, all data is packed, there is no padding used. Will there always be 20 cars in the data structures? No, for F1 2020, there is a new feature called “My Team” which allows an extra team to be present on the grid. This means that all previous places where 20 cars were used, 22 is now the maximum. If “My Team” is not active however, most games modes will act as before and have a maximum of 20. Note that if your UDP format is 2019, 2018 or legacy and you are in “My Team” career mode, no UDP output will be produced because of this imitation. There is still the data item called m_numActiveCars in the participants packet which tells you how many cars are active in the race. However, you should check the individual result status of each car in the lap data to see if that car is actively providing data. If it is not “Invalid” or “Inactive” then the corresponding vehicle index has valid data. How often are updated packets sent? For the packets which get updated at “Rate as specified in the menus” you can be guaranteed that on the frame that these get sent they will all get sent together and will never be separated across frames. This of course relies on the reliability of your network as to whether they are received correctly as everything is sent via UDP. Other packets that get sent at specific rates can arrive on any frame. If you are connected to the game when it starts transmitting the first frame will contain the following information to help initialise data structures on the receiving application: Packets sent on Frame 1: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.000) Session Participants Car Setups Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status As an example, assuming that you are running at 60Hz with 60Hz update rate selected in the menus then you would expect to see the following packets and timestamps: Packets sent on Frame 2: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.016) Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status … Packets sent on Frame 31: (All packets sent on this frame have “Session timestamp” 0.5) Session (since 2 updates per second) Car Setups (since 2 updates per second) Lap Data Motion Data Car Telemetry Car Status Will my old app still work with F1 2020? F1 2020 uses a new format for the UDP data. However, earlier formats of the data are still supported so that most older apps implemented using the previous data formats should work with little or no change from the developer. To use the old formats, please enter the UDP options menu and set “UDP Format” to either “F1 2019”, “F1 2018” or “Legacy” (for F1 2017 and earlier). Specifications for the legacy format can be seen here: http://forums.codemasters.com/discussion/53139/f1-2017-d-box-and-udp-output-specification/p1. Specifications for the F1 2018 format can be seen here: https://forums.codemasters.com/topic/30601-f1-2018-udp-specification/. How do I enable D-BOX output? D-BOX output is currently supported on the PC platform. In F1 2020, the D-BOX activation can be controlled via the menus. Navigate to Game Options->Settings->UDP Telemetry Settings->D-BOX to activate this on your system. Advanced PC Users: It is possible to control D-BOX by editing the games’ configuration XML file. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml You should see the tag: <motion> <dbox enabled="false" /> … </motion> Set the “enabled” value to “true” to allow the game to output to your D-BOX motion platform. Note that any changes made within the game when it is running will overwrite any changes made manually. How can I disable in-game support for LED device? The F1 game has native support for some of the basic features supported by some external LED devices, such as the Leo Bodnar SLI Pro and the Fanatec steering wheels. To avoid conflicts between Codemasters’ implementation and any third-party device managers on the PC platform it may be necessary to disable the native support. This is done using the following led_display flags in the hardware_settings_config.xml. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml The flags to enabled/disable LED output are: <led_display fanatecNativeSupport="true" sliProNativeSupport="true" /> The sliProNativeSupport flag controls the output to SLI Pro devices. The fanatecNativeSupport flag controls the output to Fanatec (and some related) steering wheel LEDs. Set the values for any of these to “false” to disable them and avoid conflicts with your own device manager. Please note there is an additional flag to manually control the LED brightness on the SLI Pro: <led_display sliProForceBrightness="127" /> This option (using value in the range 0-255) will be ignored when setting the sliProNativeSupport flag to “false”. Also note it is now possible to edit these values on the fly via the Game Options->Settings->UDP Telemetry Settings menu. Can I configure the UDP output using an XML File? PC users can edit the game’s configuration XML file to configure UDP output. The file is located here (after an initial boot of the game): ...\Documents\My Games\<game_folder>\hardwaresettings\hardware_settings_config.xml You should see the tag: <motion> ... <udp enabled="false" broadcast=”false” ip="127.0.0.1" port="20777" sendRate=”20” format=”2020” yourTelemetry="restricted" /> ... </motion> Here you can set the values manually. Note that any changes made within the game when it is running will overwrite any changes made manually.

ThibaudPHP 10 Posted July 2, 2020 Hello, Thanks for the release few days before like you told us. It's pretty cool. I don't have access to the beta, so i have some ask. (or can i get a code to try to play with telemetry ? 😄 ) 1. The packet 9 with lobby data is almost the same than the 4. But no driver id, no carnumber. 1.1 We can know there are spectator on it and retrieve the spectator data ? 1.2 Why this choice to "double" the data and don't put all in the same packet ? ---- it's normal than the m_suggestedGear in packet 6 are not in each array for each racer ?? I am surprise to see it outside the [22] ---- Amazing for penalties. but The 5 seconds penalty are they add and delete from m_penalties in packet 2 or not ? In my idea, when a racer take 5 seconds, you put the 5 second in, and when he make his pit stop, you delete the 5 seconds. But it doesn't work like that in 2019. It's working how in 2020 ----- uint8 m_tyreStintsActual[8]; // Actual tyres used by this driver uint8 m_tyreStintsVisual[8]; // Visual tyres used by this driver 8 for the array ? Why ? it's not 4 ? RL,RR, FL,FR ? ---- in 2019, each racer who put his telemetry public, when he close the game and come back, the setting is in public, but in reality he came on restricted. Have you fix this behavior ? ---- uint8 m_numWeatherForecastSamples; // Number of weather samples to follow WeatherForecastSample m_weatherForecastSamples[20]; // Array of weather forecast samples I am lost with that. Can you try to explain me ? The weather is cut in 20 "times" and each time is the weather ? we can know with telemetry which weather it will be ?? Thanks by advance to take time to answer me. I am pretty sure you already do on the beta forum, but i didnt have access on it 😄 Best regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gparent 8 Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) Looking at the definition for WeatherForecastSample, it has a time offset in minutes. So you would get N forecast samples (up to 20), and then you could tell with the offset when they are supposed to apply. I'm really happy to see penalties broken down in this way. I'm also hoping that spectators can now receive events like fastest lap and all of the other events they do not receive in 2019. Thanks for the good work. EDIT: Here are some suggested fixes: uint32 and double are missing from the types In *CarSetupData*, the comment for the m_rearAntiRollBar field refers to the front anti roll bar. In *PacketMotionData*, the fields for m_angularAccelerationX, Y, Z refers to velocity rather than acceleration. Driver 34's name is Wilhelm Kaufmann Edited July 3, 2020 by gparent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbbox 0 Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) Thank you very much for posting the 2020 specifications. There were 2 things that already bothered me about the 2019 though, which are still present: - There is no rewind independent total session time. SessionTime keeps going forward even when a flashback was used. This and the fact you can't check flashbacks directly, make it very hard to determinate flashbacks. - A field for game version would be nice. If I choose the 2019 format in F1 2020 it is not possible for a program to know if the data coming in is F1 2019 on 2019 format or F1 2020 on 2019 format. This is important to know because the games still got different tracks, teams and drivers. Edited July 3, 2020 by bbbox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThibaudPHP 10 Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Hello, on packet 2, i receive a 7 for m_resultStatus but in your details, the value max is 6. I receive a 7 for a car who are not racing (broken car or disqualied). on unranked lobby, the car number who is send in packet 4 are not good. You send the official's car number. But it was the racer number you were send in 2019. Can we get the racer number and not the official number ?

During Time Trial events, beside the user, there are 19 other participants which are ghost cars. It would be great if m_aiControlled field had two more possible values: - user ghost - other player ghost. If there were such values, m_driverStatus field of LapData packet could have value 'Active' for visible ghosts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SimShaker 0 Posted July 7, 2020 Hi guys, it looks like m_surfaceType[4] (Driving surface) in the Car Telemetry Packet is always 0 if 2020 format selected in the game settings. Could anybody please check? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why ? it's not 4 ? RL,RR, FL,FR ? This arrays shows you the used tyre-types in the race. E.g.: Start with soft, a few laps later wets, the end of the race with hard tyres. You will get then: m_tyreStintsActual[0]=id for soft m_tyreStintsActual[1]=id for wet m_tyreStintsActual[2]=id for hard Kind regards, Mark Edited July 8, 2020 by markundsteffi 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bassetts 0 Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) There are some team ids missing from the appendix; 53 = Benetton1994 54 = Benetton1995 55 = Ferrari2000 56 =Jordan1991 Also m_drsAllowed is listed as uint8 but with a value of -1 for unknown, is this actually an int8?

AlainDash 0 Posted July 11, 2020 There are still some IDs missing in Appendix: 63-65, 81-84. They appear as ghost cars in time trial events. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I receive a 7 for a car who are not racing (broken car or disqualied). on unranked lobby, the car number who is send in packet 4 are not good. You send the official's car number. But it was the racer number you were send in 2019. Can we get the racer number and not the official number ? Thx I also got that value when Bottas' engine broke in an offline race, can someone explain the difference with "6" which is supposed to be "retired"?

notsomahsoom 5 Posted July 14, 2020 @BarryBL Can you provide Sector 3 time from the last lap? There seems to be some inconsistency in the data. When I tried to calculate the Sector 3 time by subtracting the other two sectors from the lap time, there seems to be an inconsistency of two thousandths. This is quite significant for my project as we are developing a purple/green sector display. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I receive a 7 for a car who are not racing (broken car or disqualied). I experience weird behaviour with m_resultStatus as well. Received a 7 on multiple occassions and always receive a 4 (DSQ) when it should be a 6 (DNF) on the Final classification packet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
