Fanaleds forum

Hi People

I got Fanaled to show the shift indicator in RBR but no matter what value I put in the gidll_config.txt after the Shift_Light_Levels line Fanaleds just wont show any Flash Indicators for upshift

I'm not sure about the .txt file you mention, but have you made a custom profile car profile?

Are the revLEDs working normally?

The revLEDs and shift indicator works in Race07, Assetto Corsa and netKar Pro.

I don't know how to make a custom profile car profile ?

This text is contained in the textfile called gidll_config.txt

You'll have to make a profile for your cars via Fanaleds.

Advanced > Car settings

I made a profile (see attachment) but now the display shows nothing when using Richard Burns Rally

There are no profiles for Assetto Corsa, Race07 or netKar Pro but they all work fine with the display showing both RevLeds and Shift Indicators ?

The other games don't need any settings because they send everything we need for it to work.

The way RBR works is very hacky and not stable. I'm not even sure if the RPM works properly, also with the mods that the game has. I can't seem to find my copy of the game so I can't try anything myself atm.

Since Fanaleds is a plugin I find it odd why you should not place the files in the plugin folder of Richard Burns Rally ?

Fanaleds is not a plugin. Fanaleds is a stand-alone application which uses telemetry from the games. In the case of RBR, Fanaleds needs to use a hacky plugin to get some features.

So there should NOT be any Fanaleds files in the Richard Burns Rally plugin folder ?

As far as I know the readme on our website is all needed to make it run.
