German Sim Racing peripheral brand Fanatec has released an update for its official plugin for the Stream Deck by Elgato.
The Elgato Stream Deck is a customizable desktop control pad with programmable LCD keys to make live broadcasting, content creation, and general productivity workflows more efficient. Each key is a mini-screen where you can display custom icons or live status updates and perform complex macro commands, switch scenes in streaming software, open apps, or change audio settings, all with a tap. Needless to say, all these applications can be utilized in a Sim Racing environment.
Check out the official Fanatec plugin for the Stream Deck. It lets you control your Fanatec sim racing hardware with your Stream Deck, allowing the telemetry output from supported sims to be utilized. Instantly see features such as race position, fuel level, tire temperatures, flag warnings, to name a few.
Furthermore, the official Fanatec Stream Deck plugin grants you full control of the Fanatec Tuning Menu. Dive straight into the Fanatec Tuning Menu from your rig, adjusting force feedback settings, damper behaviour, and many other hardware settings on the fly, using the LCD keys, dials, and touch strip.
The official Fanatec plugin for the Stream Deck is available for Free download via the official Elgato website. You can also check out the SreamDeck Quick Start Guide.
The Stream Deck+ hardware is available via the official Fanatec Website for €188.71 / $179.99USD. Shipping is free.
