Sidekick is pretty well optimized (3-4% additional CPU time on my system), if your fps drops with a lot of other cars on track it usually means you're already on the limit with CPU usage and the app is just a drop that spilled the cup.
Apps Sidekick 1.11.1

okay thanks. i see kunos is working on improving fps for 1.8 so looking forward to it 
Can't see the toggle for opacity. Was this removed?
I altered the textures to my liking manually but I'd like to know if I just missed it or will it be back.

Thanks mate.
Thanks for the reply mate regarding position on screen. Its no biggie as i already mentioned. Im used to moving it now. I just like to throw out ideas sometimes and since you've been in master app coding mode i thought maybe it would be fun to get some ideas you hadnt thought of and try it out. Saving app position coding skill could come in handy one day though hehe, but deffo not a must for this. We can do 1 damn thing ourselves after all the work you've done. Cheers.

is there any way to up the refresh rate? especially for the speedometer. it feels a little 30fps-ish, although my game runs with 60+.
i had a quick look in the .py file but didnt find anything. is there a way to make it refresh more often?
keep up the great work

great! thanks for the quick answer. in case of doubt you could just put it into a config file, leave a 30fps refresh rate as standard and people can switch to 60 (or even 120 :o ) when they think their pc can handle it. but you already know that, i remember race essentials doing something like this.
Great app, thanks!
But when loading any track with McLaren F1 GTR it kicks me back to the main menu. Don't know since when this happens. New document folder created, left settings to standard and only sidekick installed. Tested also with my buddies AC, but same stuff. Steam file check done also.

Whoops. Fun fact: this McLaren F1 bug is actually a Kunos' fault with not following their own naming conventions. I'll make a quick fix later today.

Download the fixed compounds.ini from the following link and replace the one in Sidekick/compounds folder:
