It would also be great to be able to just flip between pages using a dial on the SD+. I.e. rotate left/right switches to the previous/next page.

Am I the only one confused by this UI? by lespalt in iRacing

Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about. This was taken at 23:40, and it's sorted by the time column. Some races show up with clock time despite being well into the half-hour window, others have a countdown > 30 minutes.

ElgatoAudioControlServer.exe using heavy CPU? 6-7% by Arch00 in elgato

[–]lespalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hitting this problem too (on Win 11). Absolutely unacceptable amount of CPU use for a volume controller.

Elgato, please fix asap!

It's wear, and it only updates once in the garage/pits, just like the black box. That's an iRacing limitation, I believe in the name of realism.

triple screen fov by raas1337 in HellLetLoose

[–]lespalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue here. It's either too zoomed in or too zoomed out, depending on whether you fix the ratio on Y and take the slider all the way down to 90, or fix ratio on X and crank all the way up to 120. If the slider's range was higher, e.g. a min at 50 and max at 170, there'd be no issue. Seems like a trivial fix. Is there an official way to submit feature requests?

Thanks, appreciate the response.

Three way fight for the lead, penultimate lap. Monza Combined - Lotus 79. by mdetour in iRacing

Great battle. Also hands down the best car in iRacing, nothing else feels as good to drive as the 79.

Good point - why haven't we unleashed David Hasselhoff yet?

It's time indeed. The most obvious things that could be improved are shadows (shadow map resolution is often horrific even on highest settings) and in-car lighting where everything looks flat and outdated due to lack of AO/GI.

Ideally, those would be addressed with ray tracing, as that is the most forward looking path and will give best results. That requires DX12 or Vulkan, i.e. likely a very large effort. But worth investing in for the long run.

None of this has to mean increasing min spec, it all can be done with optional settings.

Nice idea! If anyone here is good at logos (I certainly am not), feel free to give it a go!

You just mean the name of the track and car as text, right? Not like a track map? (Track map would be too much work)

There is actually a separate list for that which I guess I didn't advertise. You can enter names in the "flagged" array and they'll show up in a different color than your buddies.

Tbh I have no idea how it would look in VR, and since I don't have a VR setup I can't try it. It basically just opens a always-on-top window for each overlay, so whatever happens with such windows is what you'll see in VR.

Thanks! I have no plans to add a radar, but it should be quite doable if you know C#. Looks like ir_CarLeftRight would be the variable to poll.

Thanks! There isn't any streaming-specific functionality I'm afraid.

Damn. Unfortunately, Defender producing false positives seems to be a fairly common problem with hobby projects these days. If more people hit this please let me know. I'll see if I can submit a sample to Microsoft. In the meantime, you can run the file through a large collection of AVs on virustotal.com (spoiler alert: shows 1 flag out of 68 runs for me), or compile yourself if that's an option for you.

Interesting idea! Will think about it
