Do you know if Raceroom is only a new exe? In that case the fix is easy

For Raceroom I don't think anything has been altered I just think they have added a 64bit .exe but don't take my word on that, I've added the patch notes.

For Pcars 2 I haven't a clue..

Don't know if this helps you guys out with Pcar's 2 latest patch..

PCARS2 Shared Memory changes with patch v1.3

float mBrakeBias; // [ RANGE = 0.0f->1.0f... ] [ UNSET = -1.0f ]
float mTurboBoostPressure; // RANGE = 0.0f->1.0f... ] [ UNSET = -1.0f ] - this seems to be some random nonsense value
char mLFTyreCompound[40]; // [ string ]
char mRFTyreCompound[40]; // [ string ]
char mLRTyreCompound[40]; // [ string ]
char mRRTyreCompound[40]; // [ string ]
unsigned int mPitSchedules[STORED_PARTICIPANTS_MAX]; // [ enum (Type#7) Pit Mode ]
unsigned int mHighestFlagColours[STORED_PARTICIPANTS_MAX]; // [ enum (Type#5) Flag Colour ]
unsigned int mHighestFlagReasons[STORED_PARTICIPANTS_MAX]; // [ enum (Type#6) Flag Reason ]
unsigned int mNationalities[STORED_PARTICIPANTS_MAX]; // [ nationality table , SP AND UNSET = 0 ]
float mSnowDensity; // [ UNITS = How much snow will fall ] [ RANGE = 0.0f->1.0f ], this will be non zero only in Snow season, in other seasons whatever is falling from the sky is reported as rain

Not sure, I know that running either 32 or 64 Fanaleds is a no go... Same with my SLIMax software and my SimVibe no longer works with R3E.

So hoping you can fix PC2 and R3E for Fanatec and SimInstrumentDash.
With each time one of the SIM developers does this, my quality of life drops for an entire month or more every-time! :-(

This may hint at the answer to your question?

I was able to get my SimVibe working by adding a "Wait On" RRRE64.exe ...this is the new .exe for 64bit. While I'm sure that is not a direct answer but may indicate that the easy fix may be at hand? Especially since I've heard from several parties that the shared memory supposedly hasn't changed?

What do you think?

We've added the .exe. If the memory isn't changed this should be the fix. We're rolling out a beta right now.
