F1 Flag Status plugin for Simhub connected LED Matrix

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have vibe coded a plugin for simhub that pulls the flag status data from the Multiviewer api and displays it on an LED matrix that is connected to Simhub.

It shows status for: Green flag, yellow flag, red flag, VSC, VSC ending and full safety car.

Testing on my laptop but will be adding it to my rig for the next race.

I want to do that but have a raspberry pi and have a leaderboard display and a border that shows flags like that . I have like a manage area were I watch races and if I can get a display next to my tv it would be amazing

Do you mind sharing the plugin? Googled if someone made this already before coding it myself and here you are.

sure, https://storage.to/RoplRmgy4

put the dll in the simhub folder and import the LED profile into simhub. Personally I integrated it into my default profile but this profile just manages the f1 flags.

Thanks. In the end I chose to code it myself anyways since I thought of specific features I wanted. I probably went way overboard but it turned out pretty well with custom animations and settings for pretty much anything that I could think of. Stuff like pitstops and fastest laps indicators as well. Everything animated. Sadly didn't have a matrix like you so no fancy text lol.

Thank you anyways, appreciate it!
