CMRT Essential HUD 1.0.2

Important: update 04/06/2024

We have updated the download to version 1.0.2b. This quick patch fixes performance drops brought by the original 1.0.2, and resolves problems with Leaderboard and animations.

You can read the changelog here:

Deltabar:

• Fixed abysmal performance due to v1.0.2.

• Further optimized data usage/storage, most visible on long tracks.

    Previously the app would become slowly slower and slower due to how that data was used.

    Now performance should basically be consistent instead of slowly getting worse and worse.

Leaderboard:

•   Fixed multiple people having the same sector as purple (visible during practice/qualify).

Map:

• Fixed potential cut of the map due to the opening animation.

Tyres:

• Fixed integrated pedals app disappearing when out of pits when the app is on the right side of the screen.

• Fixed pressing on the app's upper region not opening the info panel when the app is on the right side of the screen.

• Fixed not begin able to properly open/close info panel when the app is on the right side of the screen.

• Fixed app being cut when the info panel is opened and the app is on the right side of the screen.

• Fixed info panel opening/closing animations being twitchy.

The new version 1.0.2 of CMRT Essential HUD is now available.

In this version we focused on optimization of the entire interface, with focus on Pedals and Leaderboard.

We have listened to your feedback and we have inserted the possibility to remove the colored bar in the Deltabar, leaving only the info on laps/sectors and the delta number in the middle.

For those of you who are new, you can find the User Manual and download instructions here.

As always if you find any bug or issues do not hesitate to let us know here, in private chat or on Discord, we are happy to help.

We thank you again for your support shown during development.

Any unauthorized redistribution of any files used in this MOD is strictly prohibited.


The update includes:

General:

• Optimized how data from leaderboard is retrieved, getting about 25% faster.

  Previously to draw/update every app it took 1.62ms (on our end), now it takes 1.26ms (on our end).

• Added startup animations to Leaderboard, Map, Tyres, Deltabar, Radar, Sectors and Gearbox.

  Animations plays only at game startup and when the window appears on screen.
  

Pedals:

• Optimized app rendering of telemetry, about 2x-3x speedup.

  Previously the app would take about 0.18ms-0.22ms to draw (on our end), now it takes about 0.07ms-0.11ms (on our end).

• You can now choose to display the handbrake (default off, changeable in Settings).

• Steering wheel indicator turns red if your steering wheel is turned more than

    270 degrees while you're standing still.

Deltabar:

•  Added Minimized mode (default off, changeable in Settings).

  Hides the delta bar itself, leaving on screen the delta number.

• Deltabar will now remeber the last mode you have across session.

   In other words, the next time you open the game you will have the same

   barmode you had when you closed it, unless you set in settings that

   you want something else.

• Fixed '*' on invalid laps sometimes not being displayed correctly,

  this was most common in the first we laps of races.

• Laps starting from pitlane are now considered.

  With this it should take only 1 valid lap to start seeing data,

   instead of 2 (when you started from pitlane).

Tyres:

• Fixed some "misconfigured" tyres.ini resulting in only half of the tyres being

    colored correctly, while the other half are always "cold".

Leaderboard:

• Improved flag changing detection, resulting in even less quick flag changes.
  

Sectors:

• Fixed purple/green gradient on best time not having the top right corner rounded.

See you soon,

CMRT Group
