+# rFactorSharedMemoryMap
+
+A plugin for rFactor 1-based sims to export the standard telemetry and scoring data structs to a shared memory mapped file handle.
+This allows external programs to access the sim data without affecting frame times in the simulator.
+
+Details of the shared memory map can be found in `Include\rfSharedStruct.hpp`. The plugin is based on the sample plugin code from ISI found at http://rfactor.net/web/rf1/devcorner/ and compiled using Visual Studio Community 2015.
+
+A sample application using Python to access the memory map can be found in https://github.com/dallongo/pySRD9c.
