State of Telemetry in F1 22
Is there going to be any telemetry in F1 22?
Forum Discussion
@SteveJackson @mariohomoh Was looking for telemetry that you would review with your engineer...
This has been a major shortcoming in the game over the years. In terms of third party it looks like Iko Rein is going to update to F1 22 - have not heard/seen anything yet in terms of PXG Telemetry... Are there others you are aware of?
Thanks
There are a few. From the top of my head there's Hotlaps by Driver61 and Track Titan but they go beyond basic telemetry logging and their full suite of services isn't free i think.
I really like the Driver61 site and have spent time going through the videos. Unfortunately their telemetry client is only available on PC, and my setup is a PS4 and a Mac.
I see that that track Titan does have a MAC client - but first time I have seen this site. Your take on them? Thanks
- @dwin20 No way to run the client on a VM or the like? Sorry, I'm definitely out of the loop on all things Mac.
Track Titan seems to be somehow backed by Fanatec. Not sure, just recently found out about them, but you'll see their Youtube content being featured in Fanatec's own channel sometimes. Haven't use the app much yet as I've been playing mostly ACC on the PS5 - and console versions have no way of logging telemetry, unfortunately.
I like their content though. Still rough on the edges, but good. If that's any indication of how they process and analyse your telemetry, then I'll probably recommend them once I get back to F1 for good.
There are lots of other apps though, including Android (and maybe iOS?). I remember using others back in the day before settling with PXG and Iko's.I'd really like to see in-game telemetry but I don't think we'll have it this year. There is a change to one of the practice programs that is a baby step in this direction but not one that the YouTubers I've seen share this seem to fully understand.
This video should start at an example of what I mean:
If you're still looking for a telemetry client for Mac, check out F1Laps (https://www.f1laps.com/). You can run the telemetry app on your Mac while playing on any console. Let me know if you have any questions.
