How to make a Digital Dash for Racing Simulators using Sim Hub and an Old Smartphone
ฝัง

- Does the rev counter and 7 segment display on your Sim Wheel not quite cut it? For some games, it's absolutely critical to be able to see other vital statistics such as ERS charge, Engine Mode, etc.
In this video I show you how you can set up a realistic looking and highly functional digital gauge system using free software (Sim Hub) and an old Smartphone or Tablet.
The game I used as an example is F1 2018, but the same basic process applies to many popular sim racing games such as Assetto Corsa Competizione, Automobilista 2, iRacing, rFactor2, Dirt 4, etc.

Always wondered how it was done. As soon as my new gear arrives I will get it all set up. Thanks Will.
Thank you so much! This is going to save me a ton of money. I was going to buy the new Porsche wheel just to get the telemetry info on the wheel. Now I can just use my phone. Awesome! Many thanks.
Buy the Porsche wheel anyways. Or buy the R300 then the Porsche interface that's what I did.
You make the best instructional videos.
I used cheap chinese phone holder with suction mount. Works like a charm.
Sick
Great video thank you, was wondering where id get this info!
Crazy to look back at these old videos and seeing how far you've come. Good stuff.
Great guide, thank you!
Just stumbled over your video.
Thanks you used my dash.
Ahh awesome. I remember I spoke to you in the racedepartment forums back when I made this video! Any updates planned?
@@boostedmedia It's already on V1.1.3 (Added some of the classic cars, comes with an installer, no more javascript).
And the F1-2019 version is there either (but has some "errors").
Currently working hard on the ACC-Dashes, so no further updates for the F1 franchise is planned in the near future.
Boosted Media does this work on Xbox console games?
i got an problem where its stuck on the launch screen. its supposed to change screen automatic right?
Gave my rig a whole new breath of life.
Thick cardboard is a great idea 💡 thanks for the video
Thanks!!! Works great!!!
I just came across this… tempted to set this up in the hope it’s ready for the new forza
Wow look at the input latency on. that old TV you were using back then! Glad you have better screens today.
Farkn info overload with this guy
Thanks for the video!!
Fantastic guide , subbed
Hello Boosted Media, do you know if the bracket also fits on the mounting holes of the CSL Elite? Greetings from Germany! Nice Channel! Keep it up!
Kudos, even the new videos have the same humbleness and sincerity as these older ones when you might not have been a "big TH-camr". Cheers man !!
Hey.... totally off topic but you are my voice doppelganger. I swear we sound identical. It's weird watching this video as it sounds like I'm reviewing one of my own (during editing). Love the channel btw.
My apologies for your loss. Lol
Thank you so much

How big is the phone's screen that you used for this setup...??? (Diagonally) I'm considering using a "Lenovo TAB3 7" for my setup. I wanted to know if the Lenovo would be out of scale for the 3D printed attachment and the SIM racing wheel base that I have. Thanks...!!!

Is there any way in this world that this can be used with an iphone? No matter what i try, and what video I watch, they all use androids. I try what they do but either the app only exists on android, or it doesn't work at all. Please help.

@@dhrubhudia6690 I found a way to use it with iPhone u use the ets2 telemetry server but unfortunately I don’t think u can run that on ps4 I have one and I’m pretty sure you can’t download files from random websites, I think it’s a pc thing only.

Can you help me, please? Is possible send this dashboard for email?
Waiting for the aswer to this question.

Sounds like you may have downloaded the wrong dashboard. There’s two similar ones on racedepartment.
