Ozrick Major's SimHub Collection 2.1.6

There are quite a few quality-of-life changes in this update to really try to fully embrace the rebranding and set the stage moving forward.

Updates

• Full overhaul of the settings page:
• Added a title bar at the top of the page with logo, collection name, current version, a link to the Race Department page, a link to the readme file, and links to the additional required plugins.
• Added game logo branding to each of the settings pages.
• Removed the need to click a button to update some settings.
• Changed the fuel safety buffer text box in the settings to a numeric up/down box which has a lower limit of 0.1 and an upper limit of 5.0.

• Plugin settings are now stored using SimHub’s built-in functionality rather than in a separate standalone text file.
• Added 2 new properties for Player Car Make and Player Car Class.
• Added Player Car Make and Car Class logos to “OMSC - ACC - Tablet” dashboard utilising the 2 new properties.
• Added the code and files required for the new GT2 Class indication for all ACC dashboards.
• Added the code required to the corner name reader and track name on ACC dashboards for the new track, Red Bull Ring.
• Added full feature lists for all dashboards to the readme file.
• Made some fundamental changes to the internal plugin code so there is less going on inside the plugin itself.
• Made the installer more intuitive so it can detect previously installed version numbers and perform relevant actions if it needs to.

Fixes

• Fixed the flag indicator on “OMSC - ACC - Screen” either not shutting off when the flag state had ended or the flags not showing up at all in some instances.
• Discovered and fixed the scrollbars not showing up on the settings page when the main window is scaled down.
• Fixed the whole screen going invisible on the “OMSC - ACC - Tablet” when toggling off the LFM Licence Card.

Changes

• Changed the view of the maps on the ACC dashboards to be easier to read and more in keeping with the theme of my collection.

Getting these fixes out to you as quickly as I can.

Updates:

• Added an icon to the plugin when shown in the left menu.

Fixes:

• Fixed the Fuel Safety Buffer amount not being applied to the fuel calculations on “OMSC – ACC – Tablet” dashboard.
• Fixed car class indicators not disappearing from the leaderboard when they should be.

Changes:

• Changed the name of the plugin when shown in the left menu from “OMSC Plugin” to “OMSC Settings”.

To update:

1. Run the installer in the zip file. It will handle everything for you!
2. Make sure you read the readme file.

Please note: For the time being, while updates settle down, the Settings option in the installer is not available to be deselected to keep current personalisation. You will need to redo your personalisation settings after updating.

Hi all. This release is proving difficult but I'm working on problems as they arise. I'm currently investigating the following issues:

• Fuel Safety Buffer is not being added to the fuel calculation.
• Car class indicators are not disappearing from the leaderboard when they should be. I believe this is a little bit of code that needs to be added.

I'm aiming to have a new release out by the end of the day Sunday before the new LFM Season starts just in case anyone relies on this for calculating fuel in those races.

Sorry to those of you who have downloaded already. It was not my intention to have issues this soon but rest assured I am working on them as I discover them. Please feel free to hit me up in the discussion if you've spotted anything else.

Sorry for posting 2 updates in one day. I had overlooked part of the code that needed updating after the rebranding and wanted to get it out to you sooner rather than later. Think of it as a day 1 patch

Fixes:

• Fixed the car logos and car class indicators on the leaderboard not showing after the rebranding.

So, here it is!

The rebranding to Ozrick Major's SimHub Collection is ready.

It is important that you take a look at the readme either before installation or after. More so if you are returning as a user of the former OM Dash Plugin.

Updates:

• Added the ability to customise the fuel safety buffer added to the fuel calculator on the “OMSC - ACC – Tablet” dashboard.
• Added the option to hide the LFM Small Licence Card box on the “OMSC - ACC – Tablet” dashboard for those who play ACC but don’t race in LFM races.
• Added some code to the gap calculation on the leaderboard to show when drivers are laps behind or ahead of you.

Changes:

• Rebranded from OM Dash Plugin to Ozrick Major’s SimHub Collection.

To update:

1. Run the installer in the zip file. It will handle everything for you!
2. Make sure you read the readme file.

Hi everyone.

Over the Christmas break I have been putting a whole lot of work into rebranding my "collection". Moving forward this will be my 'Ozrick Major's SimHub Collection'.

I took a little inspiration for the name from "RomainRob's SimHub Collection" but mostly because my "collection" is indeed a collection of dashboards and a plugin for SimHub that was made by me, Ozrick Major.

This is the first stage of rolling out this update. A simple change to the name here on Race Department. The purpose of this is so that I can include in my installer any changes to URLs that may happen here after the renaming.

Full update notes will be included when I release the new version after testing the installer. The installer will need a good amount of testing to make sure that it removes everything that needs to be removed and adds everything that needs to be added.

There will be a readme included that will explain both first time use for new users and instructions for returning users who had the older model installed.

I hope you are all as excited to use my dashboards as I have been making all the changes.

There also a couple of small but neat customsiation updates in the plugin. More on those when I release.

Hi everyone.

I hope you have enjoyed my work so far!

I am toying with the idea of taking the leaderboard element back to version 1.3.0 of my dashboards, or something close to that version. I have been able to get my installation of GarySwallows plugin working again and there were a lot of things that plugin made available to me that I liked my leaderboard doing. There are other aspects however that my leaderboard can now do when not using that plugin that I also like. It's a tough choice and I'd love to hear your input in the discussion.

A few other things that I am thinking about and working towards are:

• Coding the installer to recognise what version of the plugin you currently have and whether or not your personalisation can remain untouched during the update process. Either that or I will add a tick box option to the installer so you can manually tell the installer to leave your previous personalisation alone. Automatic recognition would be my preference though.
• Adding more dashboards. I don't really play a lot of other racing/driving games myself but I'm sure others do so I'd like to provide. This will probably be some way off in the future however as I would need to rely upon getting SimHub replay files from players of those games in order to develop dashboards for them.
• Writing another plugin element that can recognise when I have updated my plugin, notify you, and offer to open a web browser page straight to it. This is not my idea and is something that I really like that RomainRob's collection is able to do. I think it's a fantastic feature that I'd love to include for my plugin. Again this is something else that will be quite some way off I think.

These are just a few things I am thinking about right now. If you have any thoughts on this or any suggestions of your own please let me know in the discussion.

I hope you all have a wonderful day
