    Yes, this is still on to-do list, as it requires more changes (i.e. I need to hide those drivers from the map).

    could be done, for sims that expose that data, but currently my app doesn't track those.

    "- Non-valid laps of Practice and Qualif are not visible."
    I need to check

    "- Variable IsPitLap is set twice: when entering and exiting. Would be good if it was set only when entering."
    I also need to chceck this... internally I need it to be true for both in and out lap, as it affects stuff like pace calculation (outlap is not considered for pace calculations). But for reports it should be possible to change it.

    Happy to see people using the provided data :)

    It should work. You just need to enable the championship functionality for MP in the options...

    So I downloaded the application, but it is telling me I have install .net. I go to the download link, download .net, install it, restart my computer, and the application still says I need to install .net.

    EDIT: Disregard. I repaired my .net installation and this seems to have worked.

    Hi,

    Looking for some help!

    I have an issue where Second Monitor won't launch, it shows as installed and icon appears in Windows but when I open the app nothing happens, tried admin mode, reinstalling etc. but still can't get it to work. Has anyone ever had this before?

    Thank You

    Check
    c:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SecondMonitor\
    for log.txt, and upload. There might be an error during start-up.

    Try to delete plugins.xml from the same directory. For some reason it is not valid, and application is crashing on startup because of that. It will be recreated.

    I will fix it the next version, so it is automatically recreated also when not valid.

    Is it possible to show in SM to show whether a race is ranked or not? After joining a race in AMS2 I can't see if it's ranked or not.

    As far as I know, it is not possible to determine from the data if the MP session is ranked. There isn't really any direct information in the data that even directly indicate if it is a MP session.

    On another topic, today update added teams championships. Currently sims that directly provide the teams are supported - R3E, ACC, F1 24. LmU should come in next update, as the team can be parsed from the car name.

    Sadly, AMS 2 doesn't have any team concept, so it cannot be supported.
