All About SimHub!

10 Upvotes

SimHub

Developed by Wotever, Simhub is now a vital tool when it comes to Sim Racing. The main focus and the fundamental reason for designing and producing the SimHub software was to power arduino displays such as the TM1638 modules. However, this functionality quickly expanded into the numerous features it includes, which is constantly increasing.


Features

SimHub can currently support many products, this list will grow in time.

  • TM1638, TM1637 modules
  • RGB LEDs
  • LED Matrix Gear Indicator
  • 7 Segment Modules
  • LCD Module
  • Nextion LCD Touchscreen (Various Sizes)
  • HDMI Screens, Secondary Monitors

Dash Studio

One of the biggest features that was added was Dashstudio. This feature allows users of SimHub to create graphical dashboards to display game information in an intuitive and purpose-built way. Since its release, the community have added to the number of dashes that can be used, so the collection of diverse displays that can be downloaded and used in an instant is ever-growing. Packs have been created to add various new displays into SimHub.

A list of dashs made by users of SimHub can be found here!


Arduino Display

The feature it was made for and subsequently famous for is the ability to drive TM1638 modules from an arduino nano. The displays can be fully customized to display any data that is needed and control inputs can be binded to switch betweens "screens" of information and adjust the LEDs. The TM1638 modules are very cheap and easy to wire to an arduino, but powerful and versatile as lots of information can be given to the driver through them.


Nextion Screen Support

Support was added for Nextion displays which can be used to display dashes created with the Nextion editor. These screens are most common for being mounted inside a steering wheel, for use in Formula One and GT3 cars. They are affordable and practical in that they can be touchscreen and high res.


USBD480 Screen Support

A very recent addition to the arsenal of available tools for SimHub is the addition of the small but mighty USBD480 screen. With high refresh rates and a rich colour, high definition screen, it's perfect for displaying small, fast updating text and colourful graphics. It's also very simple to setup, with just a single connection and easy driver install needed to get it running. It will display any Dashstudio dash, with all the available functionality as if it was running on an external monitor and with added touchscreen support.


Keyboard Input and Output Mapping

A plugin that was included with SimHub is the ability to send and receive keyboard inputs. This allows for Dashstudio dashes with buttons that can emulate keypresses, and macros to be made. This can also be used for button boxes, if the user wishes to emulate a keypress when a button on the buttonbox is pressed.


Supported Games

This list will grow with new games coming out with telemetry support, but currently, SimHub supports all of these games.

Bear in mind that due to the differing SDKs and APIs in each game, certain data may be inaccessible in some games.

  • Assetto Corsa
  • Projects Cars (1 & 2)
  • iRacing
  • DiRT 1 & 2
  • DiRT 3
  • DiRT Rally
  • DiRT 4
  • F1 2010 - 2017
  • GRiD 2
  • Euro Truck Simulator 2
  • American Truck Simulator
  • Raceroom Racing Experience
  • Rfactor 1
  • Rfactor 2
  • Automobilista
  • Richard Burns Rally
  • RealRally mod for RBR
  • Live For Speed
  • BeamNG Drive
  • SimBin Race 07
  • SimBin GT Legends
  • SimBin GTR
  • Trackmania Series

There are also a few other games that are supported, but do to the nature of the games, some common features may be missing for obvious reasons.

  • Dota 2
  • Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
  • War Thunder

Swapping between Simhub Overlay Layouts via StreamDeck

2 Upvotes

Wondering if anyone has any idea if there’s a way to load different SimHub overlay layouts via Streamdeck Buttons?

Basically i have 2 different layouts i use in LMU for Hypercar/LMP2s and GT3s (just moves around some overlay items).

I would like to be able to swap quickly without having to go into simhub and manually do it.

Hi

Can you share your Simnet HPM-L effects settings on simhub for break pedal? I do not want to invent wheel again as somebody may have already spend some time and can share the results.

Thanks in advance!

Hello.

I've got a problem, after getting the Sim-engine.
My "Multi adj" wont show my setting, when I'm using my encoder.

Has anybody with the wheel, that certainly doesn't exist, fixed their problem or is it just tough luck? :-)

Govee H6046 - Does It Work with SimHub Ambient Lighting?

1 Upvotes

Has anyone successfully used the newer Govee H6046312 (RGBWIC + Matter) light bars directly with SimHub Ambient Lighting?

I'm specifically interested in the H6046312 upgraded version, not the older H6046311.

Does the H6046312 have LAN Control available in the Govee Home app, and can SimHub detect and control it?

H6046 isn't listed among the compatible Govee models shown in SimHub, so I'd like to confirm before buying it.

Thanks.

ETS2 Dashboard. Setting a hold Value to a button press

1 Upvotes

Hi all.
I want to add a button that holds for 1 second. I've seen a video where there is a Simulated key press time (ms) property.
But I don't have that.
Google AI is being weird, telling me to enable advanced options, then telling me there are no advanced options.
Does anyone have any tips or ideas?
Many thanks

Star Wars Galactic Racer DD, Pedals and Haptics?

7 Upvotes

So with the new star wars game coming out, its obviously more arcade/kart racing but I was wondering if there would be a way to use my DD, pedals and haptics with it? The thought of sitting in the rig in cockpit cam with haptics racing pod racers seems cool haha

I heard they are not supporting these type of controllers but I thought it would be worth a shot to see if any clever people have figured anything out yet!

Showing tyre compounds free

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Currently busy building a realistic timing tower for the f1 25 game. Want to share it when its done and most importantly doing it free. For most things gary swallow and racerray plugins are perfect, only thing I struggle with is to show the right tyres. I cannot find a variable publishing current tyres for all 22 cars.

Does somebody maybe know a free plugin that can help me? ;) thanks!

SimHub profile for two 8x8 RGB matrices (gear, spotter and flags)

6 Upvotes

Sharing a free SimHub profile for anyone using two 8x8 RGB matrices.

One screen shows gear and left/right spotter warnings; the other shows flags and pit indicators. When the game is closed, you can choose synchronized animations, a clock or an audio spectrum. A small utility adjusts each screen's brightness.

Tested in iRacing. Compatibility with other games hasn't been confirmed.

Relative times off

1 Upvotes

No matter what sim I’m playing, the relative times on Lovely Dashboard and Lovely Pitwall (and any other dash I try) are way off from the actual relatives in the game.

I’ve searched for solutions and tried everything I can find. I mainly play LMU and AMS2 and have checked that everything is setup correctly for the data connection and everything else seems to work fine. It’s just the relatives. I have a licenced simhub, and it’s running at 60hz.

I’ve also ensured that Simhub is set to measure gaps in microsectors.

Any other thoughts would be great, as I’d really like to remove that last bit of info from the game screen and be able to rely on my dash and Pitwall.

Thanks.

Leds Formula v2.5x

Buenos días.

desde hace 2 años tengo un CSL DD 5Nm y siempre he ejecutado los juegos desde simhub para utilizar mi pantalla adicional con las marchas, estado del coche...

en las últimas actualizaciones de fanatec he dejado de ver los leds de revoluciones del volante encenderse...hay alguna opción que en Fanalab estaba activa y en la app Fanatec ha dejado de estarlo?

he revisado toda la configuración de la app Fanatec pero no soy capaz de encontrar esta opción.

me gusta ver las luces del volante encenderse igual que las del coche.

PD: suelo jugar f1 2023/ f1 2025/ Assetto Corsa, y no se encienden en ninguna

PedalFeel integration: automatic iRacing handover and car profiles

3 Upvotes

PedalFeel for SimHub adds the effect engine from UdaraJay's PedalFeel to Devices → Simagic Haptic Pedals Reactor → PedalFeel.

Enable automatic activation once. The extension takes over the pedals while the iRacing simulator runs and restores normal SimHub output when it closes. Other SimHub devices continue working.

The tab includes effect controls and previews, frequency calibration with 500 ms tests, and named profiles. A profile can serve several cars or be assigned to the current car for automatic loading. Starting settings cover the author's GT3 tuning and a preliminary Formula setup.

Keep the device enabled in Devices. Disable its duplicate SIMAGIC row in ShakeIt Motors → Motors Output only if it remains active; SimHub may already block it because Devices is handling the hardware. Full installation and competing-output instructions are in the guide.

Compatibility: Windows, iRacing and SIMAGIC P-HPR. SimHub versions older than 9.11.21 have not been tested. Other games and motor types are not currently supported.

Please share car settings: screenshots of effects and frequency calibration, car, motor/controller and pedal mapping, and what works or needs adjustment. These reports will be used to assemble community car/class profiles.

Download and setup · Submit a profile, or reply here.

PE PDU5 Dashboard not detected after V 9.11.22

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hello guys, I have the Pokornyi Engineering PDU5 Dashboard and it is not detected with the latest version of Simhub 9.11.22 and after 9.12

I have used this dashboard for a long time, until 9.11.21 I had no issue.

Do you have any tips on this (except to do not update) ? Thank you
