OK folks - I'm starting a new thread because:
1) the old SSDC v4 one is too long, and we have all got older and wiser
2) the first thread for SSDC v5 stated that it was just for the C7042
The world has moved on. SSDC v5.1.0 is available now from a website near you...
Here are the details:
The first version of SSDC v5 that supports the PB-Pro. This version supports:
PB-Pro as the main powerbase (Early version: Pace cars currently not replaying).
Throttle maps defined per car.
Ability to start and run pace cars in free practice (C7042 only).
Support for Velleman K8055 for additional race lights.
Cars are forced to brake when entering the pit lane (C7042 only).
Recording of pace car data disabled by default to improve performance on older machines.
Bug fix: same lap race end option.
Bug fix: improved pace car replay logic when track calls occur.
Bug fix: improved layout and usability of drivers and cars windows.
Bug fix: crash when CPU usage information updates on certain machines.
Bug fix: Auto track call settings not disabled on the option screen when ATC disabled.
As always - enjoy
Oh, and please bear in mind that I consider this to be "work in progress". I have tested it quite a bit (especially at Gaydon), but I am sure that I have missed something. Let me know if you encounter problems (please provide details if possible). This was a major change, and so the focus for the next release will be bug fixes. And before anyone says, I can tell you now that the manual needs updating
