Turn it on with your license key

  1. Install the plugin: double-click the .streamDeckPlugin file you downloaded after buying. The Stream Deck app adds it.
  2. Drag any Race Deck key onto your Stream Deck and click it to open its settings.
  3. Paste your license key (it starts with GSD-) into the field at the top and click Activate. All keys of the plugin start working on that PC.

One license key works on up to 3 PCs. The plugin checks the key online now and then; it keeps working for a while without a connection, and checks again the next time the PC is online.

Lost your key or the download? Email us from the address you paid with, as the Recover your license key page explains, and we will send you a link to your license key page.

A new PC and all 3 places are used? Email us with your license key and we will free the old PCs.

Getting started

  1. Drag the keys you want from the plugin's category onto your Stream Deck.
  2. Start RaceRoom and drive. The game shares its live race data on your PC while a session runs, and the keys show your car as soon as you are on track. Nothing is installed into the game folder.
  3. Optional: enter a Key to send in a key's settings (for example F13 or Ctrl+Shift+P) and give the same key to a control in the game's controls (for example TC, ABS or brake bias up or down, or a pit request). Pressing the Stream Deck key then presses that key in the game.

The keys

KeyShowsSettings
FuelFuel in the tank with a bar, the laps it lasts at the game's own fuel use per lap, and that fuel use. In a car with virtual energy, the energy left in percent too, and the laps are the fewer of the two. Until the game has a fuel use per lap: "after one lap". In a race the laps of fuel are checked against the laps still to go (in a timed race the leader takes the flag at the first line after the time is up, plus the extra lap of a time-and-laps race, and you at the first line you cross after that): red with "SHORT 1.4 LAPS" when the fuel will not reach the finish, yellow with less than one lap to spare. In practice and qualifying: red under one lap, yellow under three. FUEL USE OFF when the session uses no fuel.Litres or US gallons
TyresThe four tyres in their corners (front on top) as colors, with the compound when the game names it: tyre life left in percent (green while under 10% is worn, yellow under 20%, orange under 35%, then red; WEAR OFF when the session has no tyre wear), tread temperature (colored against the tyre's own window from the game), or pressure.Wear, tread temperature (°C or °F) or pressure (psi, kPa or bar)
BrakesThe temperature of the four brakes as colors, against the brakes' own window from the game.°C or °F
Lap TimesThe game's own delta to your best lap (green when you are ahead of it, red when behind), the last lap and the best lap. Until there is a best lap: "no Δ yet". On a lap the game marks invalid, LAP INVALID.Big number: delta to my best lap, or the current lap time
PositionYour place overall or in your class, and the number of cars. In a race: the gaps the game gives to the car ahead (▲) and behind (▼) in seconds, and LEADER when you lead. A penalty to serve (drive-through, stop and go, pit stop, time added, slow down) is shown in orange.Place: overall or in my class
SessionTime left or the lap of a lap race with the laps to go (NO TIME LIMIT when the session has none), the session (practice, qualifying, warmup, race), the start lights and the phase before the start (garage, grid, formation, start), and how you finished (FINISHED, DNF, DQ and so on).—
FlagsThe flag the game shows you: GREEN, YELLOW (with how far ahead and whether you may overtake), BLUE FLAG, BLACK FLAG, WHITE FLAG, CHEQUERED, and the black and white warning; the sectors under yellow, track limit warnings and incidents.—
Pit & StintON TRACK, PIT LANE, IN THE BOX, EXITING; LIMITER while the pit limiter is on; the stop and its work (fuel, tyres, repair, penalty, driver); laps and driving time of the current stint; a penalty to serve; and the pit window (laps or minutes, WINDOW OPEN, PIT STOP DONE).—
TC / ABS / Map / BiasThe traction control level and the ABS level of the car (OFF at 0, -- when the car has none), marked while they work; the engine map; and the brake bias in percent to the front.—
Push to Pass / DRSPush to pass: READY, ACTIVE with its seconds, the wait, and the uses left; or DRS: AVAILABLE, OPEN, and the uses left. NO BOOST when the car has neither.System: the one the car has, push to pass or DRS
DamageEngine, gearbox, aero and suspension as bars (full = no damage). No bar for a part the session does not damage.—

Every key has the same press and data settings: Key to send, Only while the game is the active window (on by default), Game program (empty = RRRE64.exe and RRRE.exe) and Data name (empty = $R3E, the name the game shares its data under; change it only if we ask you to).

Messages on the keys

MessageWhat it means
NO GAME · start a sessionThe game's live data is not there: RaceRoom is not running yet. The keys find the game within about a second after it starts.
LOADINGThe game is starting and has not written its data yet.
NO SESSION · in the menuYou are in the game's menus.
REPLAYA replay is playing.
VIEWING (dimmed key, amber frame)The game shows a car you are not driving. The keys keep the last values of your car, dimmed, and measure nothing until your car is back. Before you have driven in the session the key only says VIEWING.
NO CARThe game has no car of yours yet. As with VIEWING, the keys keep the last values of your car, dimmed.
PAUSED (dimmed key, amber frame)The game is paused. The last values stay readable but dimmed.
STALE (dimmed key, amber frame)The game's data has not changed for 3 seconds: the game is loading, or stopped.
UNSUPPORTED (red)The data does not look like what this plugin reads. "game version differs": a game update changed the version of its data. "data changed": the values do not fit the layout the plugin reads. The keys show no numbers then. Please tell us.
READ ERROR (red)Windows refused to let the plugin read the game's data. If you run the game as administrator, run the Stream Deck app the same way, or run both normally.
STINT --The plugin has not yet seen your car leave the pit lane (or the green light of a race) in this session, so the stint start is unknown. It starts counting at your next pit exit.

Questions

Do I need to change a setting in the game?

No. RaceRoom shares its live race data on your PC by itself while you drive, and the plugin only reads it.

Where does the fuel use per lap come from?

From the game itself: RaceRoom works out the fuel your car uses per lap and shares it. Until it has a figure (usually after your first full lap), the key says "after one lap".

Are the gaps for my class?

The seconds are the gaps the game itself gives to the cars placed just ahead of and behind you overall. The Place setting chooses whether the big number is your overall place or your place in your class.

I press the key and nothing happens in the game.

Open the key's settings and read the Status line: it says the key that was sent, or why it was not. By default keys are sent only while the game is the active window. Give the same key to a control in the game's controls. If you run RaceRoom as administrator, Windows blocks keys from Stream Deck: start the game normally. If the Status line says the name of the program in front could not be read, turn off "Only while the game is the active window".

Does it press keys by itself?

No. One press of a Stream Deck key sends one key you chose, as if you pressed it on your keyboard. It never presses anything by itself and has no macros.

Does it change the game or need a mod?

No. It only reads the data the game shares. Nothing is installed into the game folder and nothing is written to the game.

Requirements

Windows 10 or later, Stream Deck app 6.9 or later, RaceRoom Racing Experience on PC.
