HUD ReHUD - A custom overlay for RaceRoom

And you should read what I wrote cause I wrote "if this is the case" which wasn't. Anyway, a good mod/content creator takes responsibillity for his content and therefore I expect, depending on the complexity of the app/mod, a proper update within three days up to one week including a heads up/proper info to his followers if he/she has to postpone, DL links are changing - or any other issue arises - whatever....(Edit: With the exception of a complete game overhaul modwise for example which of course will take time to update accordingly)

I don't fall on my knees just because they do it in their free time because they've made this decision themselves and have to take responsibillity for it, you always have to, don't you think ? And there are a lot of those folks who do exactly this while there are others who just seem to do it for their own self-validation in the first place...which mostly results in shitty apps/ mods with slim to none maintenance...

 

......Aaaaaand ReHud 0.11.5 Beta is officially available now, but thx for the link anyway @Dean14

 

Thx a lot for the link, @Dean14 , and for the advice, @liconoque .
And thanks @Yuval Rosen for this fantastic app.

 

Just an observation. How come ReHud is 359mb bigger than OtterHud, when they do the same thing?

 

ReHUD is bigger because in some sense it's a website+browser while OtterHUD is only a website.

 

Fair enough answer. Thx. Assuming you have tried both, which do you prefer and why?

 

I basically only need additional HUDs for radar, everything else that I need is there on in-car dash. So for me there's not a lot of difference. I use ReHUD because 1) its radar is more accurate and works at higher refresh rate; 2) it can show delta on invalid laps; 3) in case it fails, it's not a race over, compared to OtterHUD's white screen issue. But I would definitely prefer a webhud (so like OtterHUD) because I don't like borderless mode that you have to use for ReHUD to work.

 

Good feedback, thanks. I have both installed and working but use Otter because I'm just used to it. I play everything in Borderless 'cause I'm always Alt Tabbing during play but I have no issues. Regarding Otter, in the past you could Ctrl-C to copy settings to a TXT file, now it doesn't work for some reason. Could it be the new API? o7

 

Hmm, don't know about that at all.

 

There's a minor issue with VR mode enabled: Once the black window is active, it permanently blocks everything on the desktop. The overlay does work great in VR (with Crew Chief). It's just that after exiting the game, the desktop is still black. Even if I alt-tab to different windows, I can't see them.

In order to close ReHUD I have to alt-tab to the ReHUD settings window (not visible) and alt-F4 to exit.

I have tried with hardware acceleration enabled and disabled, it doesn't make a difference.

 

Hi
can you add a custom logo in tv tower like in OtterHUD please

 

Hello everyone, since the update, even with the updated ReHUD, it's frozing a lot during all sessions.

 

Any reason possible to explain this?

Could someone help me? Please

 

I've read every page of this post to see everything related to using this HUD in VR in Raceroom, but the only thing I've learned is that it doesn't work in VR. I've tried to follow all the advice, but it's been impossible.

I don't mean to detract from the work done so far, of course, which I understand is extensive and very good. But the time has finally come when it's no longer possible to use the beloved Otter HUD, so please, if anyone knows of a HUD that currently works in VR, I'd be grateful.

 

ReHUD does work in VR for me as of a few days ago (requires some finicky setup with Crew Chief though).

There's also a new variant of OtterHUD called SealHUD that works fine in VR, and is easier to set up.

It's not actually freezing for me, but when I try to edit / move / resize some of the icons, as soon as I click on them they vanish. It has also turned itself off randomly a couple of times in the past few days, so something seems not quite right.

 

I saw somewhere that re-hud requires running the game in windowed-borderless mode... What happens if I would run it full screen? Stuttering? else? I wish the great features of Otterhud and Re-HUD would be natively implemented instead, especially the radar.

 

It's either not on screen or frozen.

 

HI, sorry to bother uou. i am new to trying to get rehud on raceroom. i have watched youtube, but they are old vids, and looks basic enough to do but it just wont work. I down load the link you gave, copy that into launch in steam and leave them open and then run the game. what am i missing please, if you cant help can you direct me to who can, many thanks

 

The game needs to be in Window or Borderless window mode.
