F1 2012 PC - Broadcasting Software

Benjamin Rothberg · Apr 2, 2013

Hi Everyone,

I am currently looking for a peice of software in which will enable a 2nd or 3rd computer to broadcast the race to the public. Say if at a convencion there where some simulators and you had the two connected through LAN, is there a way to broadcast or show them racing through TV sort of camera's.

Thanks.

Edit: Or a leaderboard sort of system which records laptimes as a competition?

All the Best,
Ben

Hi mate,

Awesome idea but the spectator cameras on F1 2012 are appalling. It would probably be more a case of who would want to watch "Player 1" drive around the track for 28 laps, while jumping/flickering and being fixed to 5 or 6 different views of "Player 1's" car.

In answer to your question, you'd need another copy of F1 2012 and another PC, You would need to invite your other PC into the race, and just spectate.

The only other way is to broadcast your own race using a capture card device.

Do a quick google search - it returns alot of results mate - CLICK ME

Capture Cards for PC's

Hope this helps you mate!

All the best,

Dan
