Automobilista 2 Auto Director for Broadcasts

Verry nice! I hope there will come more TV Cams from Reiza.

 

Hi All,
Linked is AMS2 Auto Director running in Python.
Automobilista 2 Auto Director
Also Link to Github: GitHub - RangeyRover/Automobilista-2-Auto-Director: An auto director for AMS2 in python using UDP or Shared memory
There are limited keyboard commands available, Up, down, enter for drivers, u to change across to cameras, left right, enter for camera type. Thats it.
Auto Director runs in Python monitoring AMS2 in UDP & Shared memory mode.
In UDP mode it can give data in Spectator, Broadcast and Replay.
In Shared memory it can give data in Replay and Director (untested)

Auto Director has some basic rules.

• Smallest gap is the most dominant
• It also looks for Rate of change between cars

To Install:

• Run AMS2AutoDirector.exe

To Operate:

• Start AMS2
• Run AMS2AutoDirector.exe
• Be in Replay, Spectator or Broadcast mode
• Select UDP or Shared memory.
• Select UDP port if selected.
• Enter Camera Dwell time.
• Enter Race Position Bonus.
• Start the race
• Click driver 1 and leave the game in focus
• Press Space
• AMS2AutoDirector.exe will press the buttons for you.

If you want overlays for your broadcast, run simhub in UDP mode and rebroadcast the packets

 

Could you explain how to "rebroadcast the packets"?

 

Broadcast with the most recent version.

 

Hi mate thats a simhub deal

 

Ip address must be same as my PC or it can stay 127.0.0.1?
Because I understand that for example - if I want to have telemetry from SimHub for dashboard, this stays 5606, but for ARD I have to change UDP to 5607 within AutoRaceDirector, is that correct?
Also, overlays that people are showing, how can I create them so Auto Race Director will be clicking them instead of the ones that are in AMS2? Or is it impossible and I have to create overlay for OBS that would be on top of in-game overlays?

Thanks!

 

Just tried this with v1.6 and I'm happy to report it works fine .

 

This is a fantastic application. I have a feature request. Could you add an option to make it ignore any AI cars? Or make it possible to weight them less than actual player cars?

Thanks

 

Why no one use this tool to stream nice League Races from LFM, like a TV Stream?
