Monocoque User Setup Guide

Required Packages / Software

  • build monocoque e.g. in ~/monocoque - follow instructions from repo
  • build simd e.g. in ~/simapi/simd - follow instructions from repo
  • build simshmbridge e.g. in ~/simshmbridge - follow instructions from repo

Configure SIMD & Monocoque

  • Create a simd Config in ~/.config/simd/simd.config - use example
    • no changes required to the example file
  • create Monocoque config in ~/.config/monocque/monocoque.config - example

Steam & Game Config

Steam

  • Adapt Steam Launch Commands from simshbridge
    • to use with simd you need to SIMD_BRIDGE_EXE to the launch command like SIMD_BRIDGE_EXE=~/git/simshmbridge/assets/pcars2bridge.exe %command% & sleep 5 && ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Proton\ 6.3/proton run ~/git/simshmbridge/assets/pcars2bridge.exe

Game specific settings

Automobilista 2 (AMS2)

  • In Games like Automobilista 2 activate the Shared Memory Setting and make sure to set the Protocal to Project CARS 2. System Settings in AMS2 Shared Memory Settings in AMS2
    • Restart the Game after changing these Settings!

Assetto Corsa & Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC)

  • Assetto Corsa & ACC do not need any additional settings and should work out of the box

Run everything, but in the right order

  • first start simd like ~/simapi/simd/build/simd --no-daemon -vv
    • this will likely fail, so you'll need to add export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib or export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib64 in front of the command like export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib64 ~/simapi/simd/build/simd --no-daemon -vv
  • now start monocoque like ~/monocoque/build/monocoque play
  • finally start the Game you want to play from Steam

Troubleshooting

  • make sure simd is running and after you start a game, the CLI output confirms the game is detected
  • make sure the bridge application starts e.g. with ps aux|grep pcars2bridge.exe before the game starts
  • see if you have the path /dev/shm/acpmf_physics (for ACC) and/or /dev/shm/$pcars2$ for AMS2
  • when simd recognizes the game, see if monocoque shows RPM, Gear.. and other Car Metrics once you start a game
    • if simd recognozies the game, but monocoque does not show any data, doublecheck the Game Settings to see if Shared Memory is activated
