When it comes to race cars, the vast amount of available options when developing a setup for a specific track and the personal driving style can be overwhelming - and this not only for the beginners. Most of us know some thump rules, for example: "Increase the rear wing angle to increase the rear stabiliity in fast corners and under heavy braking". But only a few of us know all the little tricks to create the best possible compromise for a given driver / car / track combination. And it will always be a compromise, since many requirements are contradictory. Welcome to "Setup Advisor"... This tool is a member of the Simulator Controller suite (more can be found here: https://github.com/SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller). However, since this tool can be used independently, I can make it available to you here as an independent standalone solution, but also as an entry drug for the complete suite, so to speak. Download: https://cntr.click/f13HPq3 Installation: After downloading, unzip the ZIP file and place the "Setup Advisor" folder anywhere you like. In the Binaries folder you will find the "Setup Advisor" app. It will be best to put a shortcut in the Windows Start menu or in the taskbar. Documentation: Setup Advisor · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki And now have fun with your Setups. P.S.

The tool has been updated. If you haven't switched to the full package, which supports automated update installations, please reinstall "Setup Advisor" using the download link above.
There's something new again. Setup Advisor can now read and edit ACC setup files. However, the implementation required deeper integration with other basic components of the "Simulator Controller" software package, so that the tool is no longer available independently for technical reasons. So you have to download and install the entire package, but you will also receive automatic updates in the future. Of course, you can still use the Advisor independently without having to use the other components. You can get the whole package here: GitHub - SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller: A modular and extandable adminstration and controller application for Sim Racing Rigs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Release Notes: Release Notes · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki Update Notes: Update Notes · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki Discord Server: Join the Simulator Controller Discord Server!

The Setup Advisor now can compare setups and will show you the differences. You can even merge two different setups to create a new one with mixed properties for example when building a setup for mixed conditions in an endurance race. As I mentioned above, the Setup Advisor is only available as part of the Simulator Controller tool suite, but it still can be used completely stand alone. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Release Notes: Release Notes · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki Update Notes: Update Notes · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki Discord Server: Join the Simulator Controller Discord Server!

The 2nd anniversary release of my software brings a great new feature to the Setup Advisor. The tool can now evaluate the telemetry data live and show you problems with your setup, but possibly also with your driving style while you are on the track. In the end, entries can be generated from these events in the "Setup Advisor" after selection, from which the tool can then automatically generate an adapted setup. But what am I talking about here, just watch the video.

quick start guide has a screenshot with AMS2 in it - so presume yes Installation & Configuration · SeriousOldMan/Simulator-Controller Wiki · GitHub
Unfortunately not. You can use it with Generic, but it does not communicate with the setups in AMS2, because they are binary closed. For me this makes the tool not usable for setups in AMS2.
Hi Frank, the answer is a little bit more complicated. You are right, I have not found a way to read and write setup files in AMS2, since they are binary and undocumented. But the telemetry analyzer, which is demonstrated in the video above works great for AMS2 and the "Setup Workbench" will give you pretty good advices which you then can apply manually to your setup. You can even use the "Driving Coach", a GPT-based AI to talk about your handling issues. The Coach has also knowledge about your handling issues as recorded by the telemetry analyzer.
