SRT v1.16 - Quality of Life

We're excited to present the latest updates to Sim Racing Telemetry, designed to enhance your experience and streamline your workflow.

In this release, you will find enhancements such as our revamped Recording Screen, a more intuitive Games List with smart ordering, and improved accessibility features, all aimed at making your interaction with SRT smoother and more efficient.

Read through the details below to discover what is included in this update. Thank you for your continued support and feedback, and we hope you enjoy the improved functionality!

Let's start
  • The classic but essential: optimizations and bug fixes!
  • Most views now feature a Help button that points directly to the user manual, helping you discover how to use SRT to its fullest.
  • Our Games List has gotten smarter! With a smart ordering algorithm, your most recently used games will rise to the top, based on their last recorded session. No more tedious scrolling, it's all right there at your fingertips!
  • Looking for a specific lap to Compare? You can now filter the laps by Vehicle, Session Type, and User, making your selection process a breeze.
  • When the app prompts you to configure a nickname before sharing a telemetry file, you can now do so without leaving the selected session. Keep your momentum going!


Recording Screen
  • Welcome to our all-new Recording Screen! While it won't show real-time telemetry just yet, it's a significant upgrade. You'll find useful information about your current recording, including a live chart of the number of telemetry samples received from the game - perfect for spotting any networking hiccups.
  • We've added an application setting to enable or disable battery saver mode during recording. Available only on mobile and enabled by default, this feature lowers screen brightness while recording to help your device last longer.


Views Customization
  • Introducing a new Telemetry Parameters selection dialog! We've simplified how you choose and arrange your telemetry parameters, with selected ones now pinned at the top for easy access and reorganization.
  • Customize the Lap Table view by pinning your favorite telemetry parameters at the top! This way, you can transform that "wall of numbers" into a more manageable and useful display.
  • Need to configure Statistics? Our new workflow lets you quickly select a parameter and customize its stats; you can even search for parameters by name and pin your chosen stats at the top for quick updates.
  • When in Trial Mode, locked Telemetry Parameters are now conveniently grouped in a dedicated section, so you can easily spot the available ones.


Charts
  • All charts now come with options to maximize, minimize, and restore them, so you can hide what you don't need and enlarge what you do!
  • In the Session Charts view, we've enhanced the Lap Times and Race Positions charts! Laps with pit stops are now excluded from the lap times chart for a clearer picture of your performance.


Sessions List
  • Filtering just got a boost! The Sessions List now supports filtering recordings by Session Type, helping you find exactly what you need.
  • Our Sessions List highlights the best timings from the displayed sessions, making it easy to spot your top performances according to your chosen filters.


Accessibility
  • Updated all colors to improve accessibility, especially for those with vision impairment, following the WCAG 2.1 AA standard.
  • Even when using custom palettes, labels automatically select the most visible color to ensure clarity, adhering to the WCAG 2.1 relative luminance directive.
  • Formatting just got better! We now use spaces for digit grouping according to BIPM standards, and values are rounded for a consistent and polished look.


Please don't hesitate to share your feedback or reach out via email with any requests for new features and enhancements. Your voice helps shape our future!

The User Manual is now available, and what's coming next

Hello racers!

A little announcement to let you know that we published the first version of the official User Manual of Sim Racing Telemetry. You can find it here: https://docs.simracingtelemetry.com/manual/start.



User Manual

We decided to keep it short and easy to read to help you quickly navigate through all the features provided by Sim Racing Telemetry.

Some sections are missing or incomplete due to changes planned for the next update.

Detailed recording instructions for supported games are still on the main website (https://www.simracingtelemetry.com/), under the Help menu.

[h2]Knowledge Base[/h2]
Following the creation of the User Manual, we would also like to add a Knowledge Base section. Unlike the User Manual, which describes how the software works, the Knowledge Base will be a collection of small articles with tips on how to analyze telemetry data, how to create some ad-hoc configurations for specific games, helpful links and videos, etc.

Next update

The next update of Sim Racing Telemetry will mainly focus on Quality of Life features: bug fixes and a long list of minor changes that will improve the current UX of SRT. For this update, we decided to focus on improving existing features to make them easier to use, more accessible and useful.

The update will likely be released in September, right after the summer holidays.

Meanwhile, we're also working on major new features that we would like to release later this year. More on this in the near future :)

Happy racing folks!!
