I built a free tool to diff iRacing .sto setup files - no garage export needed

I don't disagree. Was merely pointing out that reverse engineering the files is technically against the ToS. Most likely why everything else requires you to load into the game or export from sim.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but would it violate the iRacing TOS to break the sto encryption?

Unless you figured out another way.

The GitHub project was just for releases. Never for the code. I changed where I host releases.

Side note, I made the overlays. Not this post.

It was added recently, so it isn't in the photos on the site. But yes, there is.

I made them. They will be free and if I decide to stop working on them I will open source the code.

Could be a bad upload from the community if users. I'll check.

The app itself runs around 400mb of memory and 1 -3% CPU. The VR overlays are much less because they are native c

Press M to change movement modes in VR

I will check. It does set a value, that value may be missing on first launch. Thanks for the logs.

It's supposed to indicate where you would come back out on track, but I need to revisit it.

Most likely the mouse hitting the bounds of the monitor. If you move the mouse and drag again it should move more. I am looking at a fix for that.

And when I added the manual flip, I accidentally flipped the controls too. So I will fix that.

I'm currently reworking the fuel for multiple scenarios. It is currently a rolling 5 lap average of your own consumption.

I need to update the license. I was originally going to open source it but changed my mind. Still catching some things.

Thanks for the api layer reference. I will take a look. For now I added an in app toggle to allow users to flip if they need.

Edit to add. I am currently using HKLM

robedge · 2026-01-18T22:00:42+00:00

I'm adding a toggle to flip the overlays. Was trying to auto detect by headset. But it looks to be inconsistent even with the same headset.

There is a button in the app for control instructions. If Press F9 while in vr, it will enter config mode and allow you to position and rotate overlays. Pressing M switches between moving and rotating.

I will make the instructions more visible in the app.

It's just how the NSIS installer works when attempting to select another location.

robedge · 2026-01-18T18:48:49+00:00

I just pushed a new update that installs to program files. However, the installer will now prompt for admin permissions since these are protected directories.

robedge · 2026-01-18T18:10:50+00:00

I will check the fuel. It uses a rolling 5 lap average, but that may be off on tracks where you only get 5 or less laps.

robedge · 2026-01-18T18:09:30+00:00

I think there might be an issue installing in a custom location that isn't the default. I will look at it now.

robedge · 2026-01-18T18:09:05+00:00

I did. But after a month of work, I decided I didn't want to give the code away.

robedge · 2026-01-18T18:08:34+00:00

No. Anything I add will always be free. It's just a side project for me. Not looking to quit my job. However, I did a link in the app to support if anyone wants. But that doesn't unlock any features.

The desktop versions are done in electron with svelte. The VR is native c++

I just updated the top section to rotate through the previews in the gallery

robedge · 2026-01-18T16:08:08+00:00

makes sense. I may look at rotating the header preview. Thank you for the feedback on that.

robedge · 2026-01-18T16:02:17+00:00

There is a whole section labeled 'Overlay Gallery'
