    Love this app.
    I am having a small issue though. When ever I try to create a new championship in the program, it crashes of sorts on any Sim I use it on.
    It doesn't CTD but after choosing a track and pressing the tick a window pops up saying second monitor has stopped working and would you like windows to look online for a solution. After selecting either look online or close the app just closes.
    Everything else works like a treat.
    Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

    I will need to have a look on this.I guess once again the timing information is broken in the remote functionality, so the app is doing the sector and lap timings by itself... And as RF2 updates most of it's information each 200ms, the number end up nicely rounded.

    could you please upload the log? There is a button in the settings that will take you to log directory.

    Like many things in my life, I was a bit premature.. The issue is not the app but seems to be my laptop, it is now randomly closing other programs now too. I tested the app on my main PC and it has no issues creating a Championship.

    Again, thanks for such a cool and useful app.

    Hi,
    Still loving the app :)

    I have a request/suggestion (ACC). I've noticed that on the generated race reports, more pitstop detail/data is collected when I stop for a change of trye compound. On a normal pitstop (just coming in for mandatory stop; no tyre compound change, the data is as per Example 1 (attached), if I come in for wets (to replace dry tyres or vise-versa), more info is generated as per Example 2.

    Would it be possible to have this amount of detail (second example) present as default? Also, does ACC output repair times? If so, could that be included too?

    Many thanks,
    Simon.

    Sadly, not really possible in ACC. In other sims you should also see dry->dry tyre changes. This is because ACC doesn't expose tyre wear via its data... So the only thing the app can look to see which tyres were changes during the pit stop is the compound name.

    In other sims it also checks the tyre wear, to detect tyre change.

    Repair data are not exposed (and after quick check doesn't look to be exposed in any sim). So it is not pissible to add to report.

    Well, it is a good thing you asked ;). I took another look on the data, and while there really isn't tyre wear available, I've found the set index. So I've made it part of the name, so in the next update the app will detect dry->dry tyre changes, with the correct tyre set number. Also the name is now proper, DRY #, instead of dry_compound :)

    I still have to check wet tyres, as I have a feeling there is no set number there.

    Also in the next version, the map will show the pit count difference between the player and the driver. So it can be easier judged if the drivers around you still need to make a pit stop, or not. For pit window race the number is replaced with a checkmark for those, that made their mandatory pitstop :) (can be disabled ofc ;))

    @Winzarten A problem and a question regarding your Second Monitor app.
    The problem: The track pool is not showing up when creating a championship there.
    The question: Can you set up a varying number of laps?

    Not currently, maybe if it will be in some deeper sale. The F1 game series is not that interested to me to pay full price for it, and I can only support sims I won :)

    I will have look, but my intuition tells me this is a R3E problem, and these are the names those players have in game :D

    If you have just installed the app, then the lap pool will be empty, becasue it populates the track pool from what you play (as the app has no way of knowing which dlcs you have installed). You can use the placeholder track entry.
    If you have played the game previously, with the app open, then please upload the log file.

    While you cannot set-it up in the championships settup , the app doesn't really care how many laps you run, or if it is timed or lapped race. So you can set any lap count in-game, and the app will track it ok.
