🏁 iRaceDeck 3.5.0 — Squashing Bugs
This one is a pit stop for the plugin itself: fresh tyres, a lighter car and a long list of fixes. iRaceDeck now uses much less CPU in a big field, and the Race Engineer stops talking over himself, losing calls or reporting on cars you aren't racing.
⚡ Lighter on your PC
- Live-value keys use far less CPU and memory. A Chat key with
{{self.position}}, a Telemetry Display key or a live key title now reads only the values it shows and refreshes at most ten times a second. Chat keys used to cost more the more of them you had, sometimes up to a quarter of a CPU core. That's gone. - Voice-pack installs no longer load the whole download into memory, and packs up to 2 GB are now supported.
- New: Capture CPU Profile. If iRaceDeck ever feels heavy, use Capture CPU profile on the Settings window's Diagnostics tab, or set a Telemetry Control key to Capture CPU Profile for mid-race. It records 30 seconds into two files you can attach to a report. The log also warns, with figures, if iRaceDeck's CPU use stays high for three minutes.
🎥 New
- Replay Markers on a dial. On a Stream Deck+ dial or a Mirabox knob, turn to jump to the next or previous marker and press to add one. The screen shows where you are (
2 / 5). On a Stream Deck+, a long press deletes the marker you're on. - 12 new driver names: Matthias, Brandon, Zoltán, Robin, Manfred, Liam, Ade, Chip, Elias, Andris, Yeray and Jimmy.
🎙️ Race Engineer fixes
- Opponent flags only for cars that matter: your class, your lap, close by and within a new Opponent flag range (3 s by default). He calls the car by number ("Car 42 ahead has a slowdown penalty."), and a car with several flags gets one call, for the worst.
- Incident, damage and lap-invalidation calls are no longer lost when the spotter is busy. They wait their turn, and incident comes before damage.
- Closing in / pulling away calls follow the real lap-over-lap gap, so a rival who's only quicker on the straights no longer counts as escaping.
- "Done. Go." after a pit stop with nothing to do, so you're no longer left waiting in the box.
- Session- and race-start briefs are no longer lost when iRacing is slow to report the track conditions.
- No more second announcement of an opponent's pit stop as the car leaves its box, and no more mixed-up "Change" calls under caution.
- The Default voice now says Brünnchen, Südkurve and Château d'Eau the way a local would.
- Default (Terse) is now called Default (Short callouts). Only the name changes.
🐛 Other fixes
- iRacing running as Administrator and iRaceDeck not: keys no longer stall for a second or send a stray Alt key to the window in front.
- Ulanzi: a newly placed key works as set up from its very first press.
- Audio Controls keys and dials set up in a combination their settings never offer now show the warning triangle instead of looking like working controls.
- Background volume Test previews the selected voice's own radio beeps.
- Take Snapshot lap times read
1:08.985, not1:008.985.
