A simple script that changes the camera to spectate a specific car. Every 10 seconds it updates, so you can just leave it running on a spectator instance of the game, it will work when changing from Practice/Qualifying/Race sessions.
Make sure to have nodeJS
installed on your computer. See their website for the download information.
- Download this repository and open it on your console (Command Prompt on Windows).
- Run
npm install
to install the dependencies and prepare the project. - To start, run
npm start
and then open the game.
On the file driver-spectator.js you can find the following lines:
const targetDriver = {
id: 5931666,
name: "Bruno Brito"
};
These are the details for my driver on RaceRoom. If you want to make the camera chase a different driver, just change these details above, hit save and restart the application.
You can get the driver details by going to https://game.raceroom.com/users/BrunoBrito/?json=true
. Change /BrunoBrito/
to your username. If you look for user_id
, that will give you the number you're supposed to put under id
on the file. You should also be able to find a name
property with your profile name on it, but this is the same as what shows on your profile normally.
This is a personal project that I created to help on my stream, where I have a live "TV-like" feed of the race while driving. This was done with a multi-PC setup, a proper guide on how to do it is in the works. I will update this project as I need to, but it is not supposed to replace something like the spectator guide by Sector3.
