Apps iRadar - iRacing Proximity Indicator - SimHub Overlay

[lifty99]

Hi romainrob
I just tried the Iradar overlay. I tried it with AI in Iracing. Can‘t see any dots. Other overlays or dashboards are working. Do you know, if it should work with AI or only with real opponents?

Hi lifty,
I just tested with the AI and it worked after a lap.
Make sure to run a full valid lap. Simhub needs to have a recorded lap with the current car/track combo to compute the gaps.

Hi romainrob,

I’m currently trying to install the proximity lights but I keep getting an error message saying it’s too large and I need to split it. The condensed version works great. I saw that it’s overrideable but how do you do that?

Thanks for the app and your time,
Justin

Hi Justin.
If you start a new layout with the too large overlay, it' will work.
But it won't let you add a too large overlay to an existing layout.

Thanks for the reply. I have tried starting from scratch, and while SimHub can see the overlay, the add button is greyed out. Any ideas on what to do?
Thanks again,
Justin

Yes. It won't let you add a too large one to an existing layout.
You have to start A new layout from the too large to trick it. Then add normal sized overlay to this layout.

This means that you can only have 1 too large per layout.

Wicked, got it. Thanks man. Do you recommend making the overlay box as large as possible on the screen?

It's not really recommended, for performance reasons.
It was ok for me to run it "full screen". Your mileage may vary.

Hi RomainRob - Does iRadar work on VR for iracing?

Hi. Not Natively.
You can display Simhub windows in VR using the occulus dash feature or some third party app like OVRDrop, but I don't think you get the transparency.
