Difference between revisions of "Simucube 2 True Drive releases"

• The major bug that required Simucube 2 to be restarted after a PC restart is fixed.
• Attempt to reduce very rare communication errors between the servo drive and Simucube interface.
• Fine tuned device internal temperature monitoring.
• Fixed an issue where the first attempt to select another profile in True Drive did not always work.
• Fixed an issue where there might sometimes be a momentary disconnection in True Drive just after adding a new profile.
• Minor UI fixes:
  • Note that Simucube 2 from factory-new, must have E-stop not pressed before the first firmware update.
  • Make all buttons in the UI slightly larger.
• Added template profiles for Truck Simulator titles, Assetto Corsa and Assetto Corsa Competizione (however these are not extensively tested).

• Template profiles and help for games when adding a new profile
• Less CPU consumption in True Drive via slowing down the wheel UI icon updates if the window is not active or if the first tab is not the active tab
• Reduced audible motor noise in all models
• Reduced volume of audible beeps
• Idle beeping now every four minutes (was every two minutes)

Bug fixes

• Bumpstop damping should no longer cause oscillation near endstop boundary
• Fixed Ultra Low Latency implementation issue, scale has changed slightly
• Fixed audible resonance for some Ultimate owners

Known issues

• Temporary wheel center setting is still disabled
• Upon startup wheel angle might jump +-360 degrees, workaround is to re-center wheel in True Drive
• Simucube 2 device requires a separate restart after a reboot in this and every earlier version. Symptom is a hangup of a game or the True Drive software upon their startup.

Notes

• Due to Ultra Low Latency scale change the setting may need to be re-tuned in some configurations
• Safety related beeps are not muted when disabling device sound notifications. Instead some non-safety critical sounds, such as saturation notification and low wheel battery warning gets muted.

• Torque commands created by ISI/gMotor games (rFactor2, RaceRoom, ...) were not filtered at all. Now they are filtered.
• Torque commands made by other than Constant Torque effect were not clearing the "idle torque" flag on servo drive, causing drive beep while driving. Affected ETS2 and maybe some other games.

Known issues

• Bumpstop effect damping does not work or might produce unexpected effect. The effect is disabled as default.
• Temporary wheel center setting did not work correctly after some last minute safety fixes. Therefore, it is impossible to set a temporary wheel centerpoint in this version. Setting wheel centerpoint permanently does work.
