SpaceMonkey was created to be a telemetry interface for games with no native telemetry support.

SpaceMonkey mimics the functionality of the Codemasters Dirt 4 custom udp format which allows SpaceMonkey to be used via the UDP protocol by any software that already supports Dirt 4 and Dirt Rally 2.0 custom udp. SpaceMonkey also optionally writes telemetry to a Memory Mapped File as an alternative to UDP.

SpaceMonkey contains telemetry visualisation and filtering functionality.

SpaceMonkey supports XINPUT, currently mapped to standard gamepad inputs for steering (left stick), accelerator(right trigger), and brake(left trigger). Clutch and axis assignments coming in a future version. Use the XBOX 360 controller emulator to map your direct input devices to an XINPUT gamepad. https://www.x360ce.com/

SpaceMonkey has been tested with Sim Racing Studio (motion, wind, shakers and led), SimCommander 4 (Accuforce v2) and SimFeedback (motion) and should work with any software that supports Dirt 4 Custom UDP.

The latest installer for SpaceMonkey is here (v1.1.1)

https://github.com/PHARTGAMES/SpaceMonkey/raw/main/GenericTelemetryProvider/Installer/SpaceMonkeyTP-SetupFiles/SpaceMonkeyTP.msi

Install anywhere to your local drive.

)]

1. Game selection buttons; press one to load the interface for the selected game.
2. Config selection; Choose or duplicate/rename the main configuration parameters. Configs are stored in the Configs folder. Ideally a config file will be created for each game as they often have different requirements for filtering.
3. Filter Config; Extra filter configs can be created by copying a filter config in the Filters folder.
4. Telemetry Ouput; Choose how you want telemetry to be output from SpaceMonkey. These configs are modified by pressing the Outputs button (6)
5. Hotkey; The hotkey can be used to pause and resume telemetry globally when the app is not in focus.
6. Outputs; Press this button to load the Outputs Interface.
7. Filters Button; press this to load the filters interface.

All changes to config options are saved as they are changed.

The outputs interface modifies the outputs config that is selected in the main interface. Only load this interface while a game ui is not running.

1. Change the dropdown to select an output type then press the Add Output button to add an output. Callback is a reserved type that currently only works with Simfeedback and any other software that wants to use this interface. It doesn't need to be added manually and can be ignored for now.
2. Output MMF outputs the 'Packet Format' specified, to the Memory Mapped File with the name specified in 'MMFName', using the global mutex specified by 'MMFMutexName'. The values shown here are the defaults used by existing software.
3. Output UDP outputs the 'Packet Format' specified, over UDP to the 'UDP IP' specified and and 'Port' specified. The example here outputs the Codemasters extradata=3 format which is what most software uses for dirt rally and dirt rally 2.
4. 'Packet Format Destinations'; these are folders that the packet format configuration file is copied to. Packet formats are specified in the PacketFormats folder and conform to the Dirt 4 Custom UDP specification. https://www.scribd.com/document/350826037/UDP-output-setup

The default output configs are as follows

1. default_CB: This can be specified when you just want to output in the default format via callback. This is primarily used when SpaceMonkey is loaded as a dll from inside some other app and registers a callback to recieve telemetry that way. This is now the preferred method for SimFeedback as it has the lowest latency.
2. default_CMED3: This config is to output to Codemasters extradata=3 format for when you want to output to software that supports this specific format for Dirt Rally 1/2 and it doesn't support custom udp. SimHub is one example.
3. default_MMF_UDP: This can be specified when you want to output to both MMF and UDP with the default formats as SpaceMonkey has always done by default.
4. default_MMF_UDP_CMED3: This can be specified when you want to output to MMF with the default format, and then also output Codemasters extradata=3 over UDP to some other app such as SimHub.

1. Load Dirt 5 and get to the main menu with the vehicle visible.
2. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and select a main config for DIRT5.
3. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and press the DIRT5 button.
4. Click the Initialize! button in the SpaceMonkey Dirt5UI and wait for the game's memory to be scanned. If successful the status message will change to Success! and you will see debug output in the text box.

2. Setup a session and get to the stage where you have the start race option on the left and the selected vehicle in the centre of the screen.
3. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and select a main config for Wreckfest.
4. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and press the Wreckfest button.
5. Select the player number from the drop down. In single player this is always 00. In multiplayer this is the order of your player in the lobby at the point that you join the lobby. Check as soon as you enter the lobby or you may get the wrong number.
6. Click the Initialize button and wait for the game's memory to be scanned. If successful the status message will change to Success! and you will see debug output in the text box.
7. Space Monkey will now be outputting telemetry.

This only works offline and with the Steam version of the game. You must uninstall EasyAntiCheat for Space Monkey to work. You need to block connections to the game in your firewall so that it can't tell the servers that you are playing with EasyAntiCheat disabled. Follow the Setup steps.

1. Setup firewall rules to block udp and tcp from both the starwarssquadrons.exe and starwarssquadrons_launcher.exe files.
2. In the STAR WARS: Squadrons game folder there is a subfolder named EasyAntiCheat. Run EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe and choose uninstall.
3. In the SpaceMonkey install folder there is a subfolder name Squadrons. Copy the steam_appid.txt from this folder into the STAR WARS: Squadrons game folder.

[KEY = motiondevice]

addr = "127.0.0.1"

decimation = 1

enable = true

port = 4321

[END]

Simulation produces 50Hz rate data output (output 50 samples per second) of in-game player body's state: orientation, rotation speed (spin) and acceleration (if game mission has user-controlled body). To reduce UDP messages output rate the above setup section contains an integer setting “decimation”: UDP_output_rate = Data_output_rate / decimation The default setup makes UDP output rate at the simulation's rate and is equal 50Hz.

Some people may find better results with "decimation = 2".

1. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and select a main config for IL-2 Sturmovik.
2. Go to the main interface of Space Monkey and press the IL-2 Sturmovik button.
3. Specify the UDP receive port specified in the setup step (Default 4321)

WRC.Telemetry.TelemetryAdress = "127.0.0.1";

WRC.Telemetry.EnableTelemetry = true;

WRC.Telemetry.TelemetryPort = 20777;
