    I'm having my own issues now. rF2 simply has stopped working. Back to the old UI, it will lock up and not allow any buttons to be clicked, except for a split second every few minutes. I returned to the new UI and that works smoothly, but it stops at about 96 or 98 percent of track loading. I've let it sit there for over 15 minutes on two different occasions.

    EDIT: Solved. For some reason my audio driver settings changed and no applications were able to play sound. rF2 thus was hanging as it tried to activate the sound driver.

    Technically it's just copying your view - so if you turn your head that's what it will show. For you to turn your head but it to show the 'straight ahead' view, would be rendering a second view - which is what they don't do for those screens as it would add a lot of processing. Same as showing a trackside cam or another on-car camera view.

    Yes, I understand the reasons and repercusions of it and agree with you, I'm not talking about that. What I am saying is that you see the VR effect in the track screen and just feels wrong, sometimes can even produce motion sickness even if you don't pay attention to the screen.

    Where are located the files of the overlay? I'd like to mess around with the css.

    Dear Devs,
    What have you done in this update? My fps rate is significantly! (30-40%) higher in wet conditions.
    I can drive on a wet circuit for the first time, without graphics compromise.
    Excellent job, thanks!

    Parc Ferme works in the new UI, this is just an issue with 'caching' the open setup. The setup seems open, but once you toggle one value it will show you the locked version. We tested this today. If you have any other details please feel free to report those, thanks.

    thanks for update and for the new GUI. :)
    With the new GUI, i only see a grey loading screen, while loading the track .
    I do not see the xx_loading.jpg and the other icons.
    Did i missed something to switch on?

    The track now get's really dammed slippery, when getting wet.
    Great job, really great. I didn't notice that so far.

    No, the track map is generated and that is what has replaced all the other loading graphics.

    Someone checked if forced setups for car/track releations work for AIs as well?
    I mean it did not work in the previous build.

    Can someone help, please! Can not find, where to select showroom in the new UI.

    "We’ve now included options to select a custom showroom and HUD."

    If I'm not wrong, it's in the graphics options.

    Yes, I've tried, but to no avail.
    By the way, a question about the overlays: when can we see them as players while driving? At the moment they can only be seen in replay, but when will the driver be able to see them while driving?

    In the P2 event, when server was closed in 2 red flag situations, me and a team driver encountered total hangup of rf2 (old gui). This is really new, so far the disconnect worked well when server closed.

    The broadcast overlays are never seen while driving. They're for broadcast streams.

    In the new UI, vehicle labels are always off. Any reason for that? No key assignment works to enable them.

    I think they haven't been activated yet in the new UI.
