2.3 rFactor2 fuel changes to gear readout

Flatspotter · Post by **Flatspotter** » 22 May 2015, 03:04

I can't get the 3-digit LED to read fuel all the time. It reads fuel when I start in the pits, but as soon as I put the car in gear, it changes to gear readout. If I leave it in the same gear long enough, it switches back to fuel, but as soon as I shift it changes back to gear.

This used to work fine; I could get it to read fuel all the time. I don't know why it stopped. I tried deleting the global.xml file, but that didn't help.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Is it possible you have the native rFactor Fanatec output enabled?

Thanks, that fixed it!

In rFactor2, when I use Fuel#, it should display the fuel in liters, right? If I put 10 gallons in the tank it reads about 40, which sounds right, but if I put any other amount in, the number is way too high or way too low. There doesn't seem to be any pattern that I can tell.

Any idea what's wrong?

Not 100% sure, but perhaps it's a percentage? I know that's the case for some games.

That appears to be it. If I change from fuel # to fuel %, it reads correctly. Thanks.
