I have a few questions derived from a post by Sully_pa:
Quote:(...) unless it's installed server side (...)
Doesn't the DeviceLink obtain the values by queuing the client ?
or with on-line version it queues the server?
I'm afraid that If server intermediates the calls, traffic and CPU will suffer. What would make it more difficult to find wide acceptance.
Sorry I missed this post somehow. I believe what Sully_pa is referring to is that servers, if they chose to, are able to set a setting called CheckRunTime. If that's set, then the game checks to see that all clients have exactly the same mods as the server. If not, a client isn't allowed to join. So...if a server had that set, and did not have the DeviceLink mod installed, it wouldn't let you join the game.
But, you're right. DeviceLink only queues the client, not the server.

I don't actually use Devicelink, so I can't say for sure, but I'm quite sure it's compatible with UI 1.2.
