Stereo submitted a new resource:

Odometer - Persistent car mileage display

View attachment 92553
LEFT - trip meter
RIGHT - odometer

Odometer that keeps track of how much you've driven each car, and displays it on a faux mechanical meter. As long as the game doesn't crash, it'll remember how far you've driven over multiple sessions.

so say i close the game and come back later will it still count each of the cars as before or will it reset?

Stereo · May 11, 2015

It'll only reset if you delete the app. It only saves if AC closes the app cleanly though (my AC's been freezing sometimes recently, not sure why) so at most you lose the distance you drove in the session that crashed. I could modify it to also save between sessions (eg. switching from Q to race in multiplayer and vice versa). I just don't want it writing files while you're playing, causes stutters.

no thats fine i think, if it reset that would be a problem but losing a bit of progress isnt really an issue

Stereo I got a problem, mine is all red

what I mean is that everything that should be black is dark red colored, while white is ok

instead of b&w mine is r&w

Great idea! I loved this utility in Gran Turismo 4

bravo!

That's odd, I've only tested it on my own system though of course - other apps with pictures on them don't have the same issue?

The only non Kunos app I use is MiniTime, but yes they are all fine

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

replay fix

Stopped it from recording mileage during replays.
Squished up the border a bit. If it's not narrow enough for your tastes, go to config.ini and change the squish parameter. 0.7 is the maximum I'd recommend, 0.4 is the default (was 0)

Yeah! same here! its all red

Had to wrack my brains a bit but I think I figured out why some people see it as dark red... AC doesn't reset the graphics context so another app is setting it to draw something red (ui element or whatever) and then mine just continues on that trend. I'll upload a fix once I've packaged it together.

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

patched hole in sandbox

glColor3f used by another app could affect the way this one rendered; now this one explicitly sets it before drawing itself so it should be protected.

Great mod, gonna use it for 24-hour Nords. Possible to get a ingame resetbutton so I don't have to delete and reinstall?

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

included missing dependencies

Should now stand alone, not depend on certain other apps being installed.

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

Reset buttons

Added reset button + config option.

config.ini,
reset=trip
- only the left (trip) odometer has a reset button, this is default.
reset=both
- both have separate reset buttons
reset=none
- no reset buttons

Hopefully this covers @Yatta 's use case?

If you don't need this, feel free to not download 0.3, this is the only change from 0.2.2.

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

Accuracy improvement based on tire size

Apparently the speed I was reading from the API is off by some mystery factor, times the tire radius (for example with a radius of 30.5cm, the factor is 3.45 - I'd have expected it to be 2pi or something, but it's not)

The app can work out this factor once the car's hit 50 fake-units per hour, so around 55-80 km/h (depending on tire size). Once this happens it'll adjust the display to show accurate distances and store the factor for future km logged on that car.

Should just be a matter...

Stereo updated Odometer with a new update entry:

Calibration accuracy

Doing burnouts the first time driving a car could lead to very badly calibrated odometers. This should reduce that problem, although it's still a good idea to set off with a minimum of wheelspin up to 50km/h the first time you drive a car to help it be the most accurate.

If the app has a car calibrated wrong, navigate to the app's folder (steamapps\common\assettocorsa\apps\python\stereo_odometer), open odometers.txt, and in the [Adjustments] section, delete any lines that are wrong...

Go to the app's folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\apps\python\stereo_odometer or wherever steam directory is), open config.ini, change the scale to a smaller number.
