catching telemetry data

[Earl Nash]

I apologize if this has been beaten to death somewhere but I have looked and I dont' see it . . .
on gt7 i became interested in finding out what gt7 streams data wise once i tried the Ezio app. I'm a bit obsessive and wanted to see the data myself, not through an app. So i set up a python file and opened a port to listen but after several hours of playing around with it, I never could get any race data to come in. Is this possible to do? ChatGPT seems to think there is a 'secret handshake' between the app developers and polyphony that the common guy doesn't have access to. I find it all interesting and if anyone out there in forum land can tell me more, i am all ears!!!!

From what I can tell, you don't have enough information to draw any useful conclusions from so more is needed. I suggest Wireshark to snoop on the conversation between the game and the app and, bearing in mind I have no idea how, decompiling the app. It's possible you just aren't listening to the right thing, I mean is it TCP, UDP or something else? How do you know which ports to listen to? Maybe there is a pre-shared key or some sort of sequence to get the game to talk, who knows? Thing is, like when I tried to reverse-engineer a G27 to build a clone with an Arduino, the juice may not be worth the squeeze, that's up to you to decide though.

This thread might be a good place to start.

Hope it helps.
