bonom / F1-22-Telemetry

A C++ script for capturing UDP telemetry data of F1 22 game

F1-22-Telemetry

This script is written for fun and for improving C++ skills.

Requirements

The script requires:

• C++23 (C++17 should be enough but is not tested yet)
• Jsoncpp Link

It is fully tested on Windows and MacOS (Intel).

How to use

git clone https://github.com/bonom/F1-22-Telemetry
cd F1-22-Telemetry

In the project there are 3 files that you can use to run the script by just calling one of them depending on the OS you are using.

Windows

start.bat

Windows make support may come in future.

MacOS - Linux

./start.sh

or

make build
make run

Description

The script is written in C++23 and uses Jsoncpp library to parse the data from the game. It will open a socket and listen for data from the game. The data is then parsed and saved in *.json files. Every header file has a *.json file with the same name that contains the data structure of the header file (e.g. Telemetry.h -> Telemetry.json). Data are stored in a tmp folder until session ends or the script is stopped by Ctrl+C, after that the folder is renamed to session_track. For all the output files the structure is a list of dictionaries. The dictionary contains the data for a single packet. The list contains all the packets for a single session and are ordered by frame. Notice that Data.json is a huge file where all data are combined together. The other files are more readable and easier to use.

Future Work

• Add Python analysis script (e.g. lap time analysis)
• Add Graphs visualization
• Add Realtime visualization
• More...
