Codemasters Proxy Server ( CMPS.exe )

This server will get around the limitation of Codemasters games to manage more than one OutGauge app/device. it get connected to CM game with a main OutGauge port ( #33334) and dispatch outgauge data to all registered apps/devices (UDP ports list – up to 50 devices/softwares). Tested with F1 2010, F1 2011, F1 2012 API v1 or API v2, DiRT2 and DiRT3 1.1  (Attention, DiRT3 1.2 need to be fixed by Codemasters to run with UDP extradata=”1″ , read the FAQ for more info).

See the app itself for more details.

LFS OutGauge Proxy Server

©2010-2013 by EK & Zappadoc – All Rights Reserved.

Here a piece of soft I dev for you very useful for those that usually use more than one Outgauge devices and/or OG Apps at the same time with Live For Speed sim.

As you probably know LFS manage only one Outgauge app so to get around this limitation I use here what I’m called a “Proxy Outgauge Server” this one is connected to LFS with a “main” Outgauge port (#33333) and dispatch outgauge data to all apps registered (udp outgauge port list in config file). More than 40 Outgauge apps can be used at the same time. Simple and efficient.

See the app itself for more options.
