DiRT telemetry HUD overlay
The DiRT games send UDP telemetry once you switch it on in their hardware settings file. Horizon Labs reads the extended data mode, which adds fuel, sector, pit status and brake temperatures.
Setup
Pick your game in Horizon Labs (Settings → Connection), then switch on its telemetry:
- DiRT Rally 2.0
hardware_settings_config.xml(in the game’s folder underDocuments\My Games): set<udp enabled="true" extradata="3" port="20777" />.- DiRT 4
hardware_settings_config.xml(in the game’s folder underDocuments\My Games): set<udp enabled="true" extradata="3" port="20777" />.- DiRT Rally
hardware_settings_config.xml(in the game’s folder underDocuments\My Games): set<udp enabled="true" extradata="3" port="20777" />.
- Edit the file with the game closed; it reads the setting on launch.
- Run the game in borderless windowed mode so the overlay can sit on top.
What the HUD can show
The fields each game sends, as Horizon Labs reads them. The Designer lets you bind any of them to any layer.
