I believe I have this set to essentials only already, anything else I should enable, check to get the messages? I am also missing off track messages now.
You can also reset HUD (set a button in Settings - Controls - Key bindings) in case some elements bugged out and ended up beyond screen borders.
Makes you wonder why RRE doesn't make a deal with you to enable such beautiful, useful, and logical HUD natively in the game.
In my opinion, it's still quite too fiddly to be added to the game officially and doesn't work in full screen. Also has issues with freezing for some people.
If the devs works with the modders, I'm pretty sure that they could implement full-screen etc without problems.
True. But the whole principle of how these overlays work is way too fiddly, as I said. It's a separate program, a separate window that sits in front of the game window, with a separate settings window. But if you start incorporating it all into the game as a proper in-game HUD, then it would require more and more resources from devs and also I'm not sure they have a reliable tech for that. After all, they have their own sample webhud ( https://github.com/sector3studios/webhud ), why is it not used officially in the game? I guess because this webhud tech is not reliable enough. Once devs figure out what tech to use for new HUD, I'm sure they can make their own one.
It's a shame that OtterNas3 disappeared completely. He might have been willing to let others take over or perhaps even sell his work to KW Studios, but he is utterly gone from what I can tell.
He's not gone, the issue is, IIRC, his hard drive died so he has no source code for OtterHUD anymore.
even outside VR I cannot get it to run. the HUD is only there after pressing Alt+Tab multiple times, and then it's just there even in the garage. And on track there's no live data, speed or else, just a static display.
You need to run the game in window or borderless window mode. Fullscreen doesn't work. Also it doesn't like DXVK mode if you use it, the game window needs to be smaller than your monitor resolution.
How do you get this to show up in game? Is there a hotkey? There's like zero readme or howto for this anywhere. I'm using Borderless. The only way is shows up is if it's in Edit mode but then it shows up over everything including my desktop.
Seems reHud is not working with the new API? At least, not working for me. I don´t know drive without reHUD.
Omph ! That's lame if this is the case, cause the devs reminder for 3rd party applications (creators) is out for a while.....
What Update ? The App's Update Check is checking nothing and there's no updated version to find at OP's side (ReHud doesn't work for me either btw.)
Whilst I'm sure the creator is delighted to hear your enthusiasm for their HUD, they do it in their free time, you are not entitled to an update immediately when it releases (or one at all for that matter) ;-)
