iROBSceneChanger

Simple tool to control OBS via Websockets using the iRacing SDK

Out of personal requirements to switch between two scenes in OBS while streaming in VR depending on being in or out of the car in iRacing I created this little tool. Because why remember to do it (you won't) when you can automate it?

Requirements

• .NET Runtime > 4.5.1
• In OBS you need the OBS Websocket Plugin.

Configuration

There is no configuration for the iRacing part, it always is looking for the driver (you). The OBS part is configurable:

• IP:PORT is the IP and Port configured for the Websocket server in OBS. This can be running on another PC! (but untested)
• Password is the password configured for the Websocket server in OBS.
• In Car is the name of the OBS scene that should be switched to when entering the car.
• Garage is the name of the OBS scene that should be switched to when getting out of the car.

Known bugs and/or limitations

• There is some amount of sanity, but I would not assume all cases are covered. It's a personal project, and I know what I'm doing with it ;) (actually I don't)
• The implementation of obs-websocket-dotnet does not handle forceful disconnects very well (read: it doesn't at all). So if your OBS crashes most likely this app will crash too.
