Custom Commands

Create your own voice commands for actions outside the simulator.

Custom Commands can send keybinds to other apps, such as OBS, Racelabs, SimHub, and similar tools. Use this for stream scenes, overlays, dashboards, or other external shortcuts without taking focus away from the sim.

You can also use DRE's built-in external key command directly:

Press keys <key-combo>
Press keys <key-combo> to <process>

Examples:

Press keys NumPad4
Press keys Ctrl+Shift+K to obs64

The key combo must use the exact canonical key names DRE supports.

The optional to <process> part is a safety check. DRE checks that the named process is running before it sends the shortcut. Process matching is exact but case-insensitive, and .exe is optional, so obs64 can match obs64.exe.

Important details:

• DRE does not focus or activate the target app.
• DRE keeps simulator focus.
• The target app must listen for global shortcuts.
• A successful key press is silent.
• Invalid key combos warn and send nothing.
• Missing target processes warn and send nothing.
• DRE and the target app must run with the same privilege level. If one runs as admin and the other does not, DRE warns and sends nothing.

You can still use Custom Commands to trigger DRE's built-in commands with your own phrases, so the wording fits how you actually talk while racing.
