Race Element

Solutions for Sim Racing

Guides > Multi-Sim

Race Element is now in the process of adding support for sims other than ACC. Currently in development is support for iRacing, Assetto Corsa 1 and RaceRoom.

While development is ongoing there might be some bugs that we need help with identifying. Below is a list of HUDs and their development state. Alpha HUDs might have a larger number of bugs than beta HUDs. In general if Race Element hangs or doesn't show proper values, try restarting it.

Prequisites

For some games you need are required to do some small steps so Race Element has access to all data it needs.

Assetto Corsa 1

AC 1 needs the Crew Chief plugin installed. It will provide more telemetry on opponents cars than the telemetry that comes with AC1 out of the box. Once Crew Chief installs the plugin, it doesn't need to run while playing AC and using Race Element HUDs. The installation steps are:

  1. Install Crew Chief from https://thecrewchief.org/forumdisplay.php?28-Download-and-Links
  2. Start Crew Chief. Select "Assetto Corsa" as "Game" and use the "Start Crew Chief Button". It should provide a dialog saying it will install the Crew Chief plugin
  3. Start AC1. Select the "Crew Chief" app on the right border where all the apps are listed. At this point Crew Chief does not have to be running anymore.

Multi-Sim HUDs

In order to use HUDs for the sim, select the sim on the top right.

Depending on the chosen sim the list of currently supported HUDs will change. ACC supports all HUDs (except Bar Spotter) and is not mentioned here.
