  • In this video I will run through how to move your iRacing overlays, including how to move the ones that are hidden by iRacing and how to move them onto your side screens if you have more than one monitor.

    How do you hide certain overlays? For instance, if I use third party overlay for flags, is there a way to hide in-game flags?

    • @brandonpowellsimracing8005
      @brandonpowellsimracing8005 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      2 years late, but if you go into settings and then either option or misc (can't remember), there should be several check boxes to hide certain things. I don't think you can hide the flags, so your best bet is to hide it behind one of your 3rd party overlays (one that won't disappear) and of course adjust the opacity to 100% (or transparency to 0%).

    Thanks again David. As a relative noob to iRacing, these are invaluable, as there's surprisingly little out there on TH-cam for these types of things. And thank you for making them easy to find on your Playlists on TH-cam. I am still even a little overwhelmed by the menus on the home screen, never mind all these hidden secrets ! Things like changing the camera in replays, or how to view the incidents etc - I have no clue.... and I can't be the only one ? Looking forward to the next video already. Cheers !

    @SMOKEY-Junior ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It wierd but their is lesser graphics options in the app.ini and I can change it to "1" 😫
    All sorted the setting is in the Dx11 file not app.ini

  • @pjroman2047
    @pjroman2047 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Thank you for making such great tutorials. When I access my app.ini file, the graphics portions are almost non existent. They are limited to:
    [Graphics]
    serverTransmitMaxCars=20 ; Limit number of cars transmitted to client (values from 10 to 64)
    [Graphics DX11]
    EnableHiddenLoadMode=1 ; Allows the BetaUI to display the sim's loading screens
    uiSafeMode=0 ; iRacingUI: Disable advanced graphics? 0=auto 1=yes 2=no
    Is this normal?
    Thank you!

    • @YoussefB1503
      @YoussefB1503 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's now in the renderdx11.ini file - under user options.
      Note: there are multiple versions now e.g. monitor, vr, etc. You might need to edit separately.

    how do you keep your black box elements in different positions for different cars with different dash types. When I move one of the Black box windows then I go to a different car and it's in a position that I can't use. Is there a way to make this car dependent rather than global?

  • @davidlenihan4124
    @davidlenihan4124 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks David. Really appreciate the video. Question - I have two monitors (a wide screen and a small monitor next to me). I would like to move the graphics adjustments screen to the small monitor however under my graphics section in the app.ini file there are not the choices you mention in the video. I am assuming because I do not have a three monitor setup. Can we still move these with a two monitor setup with only one monitor showing the iracing screen. Many thanks for your time.

  • @smoove7932
    @smoove7932 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just a clarification question. Once I move these items where I want them, will I need to move them each time I exit the sim and come back in? Or can I set them where I want and they will stay there moving forward? Basically once I move them, will they stay where I put them or will I need to move them each time I play the sim? Subbed to your channel, very informative!

  • @AlanCart
    @AlanCart 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is good haha I generally drive around until the right overlay pops up and try to move it before it disappears. Getting sector delta's in the right spot took a few tries.
    Any chance you can cover VR compatible 3rd part overlays in the future? (not sure if you have access to VR)

    2024 and I have literally NONE of the options under graphics as I see here.
    There is one line referring to car counts.
    serverTransmitMaxCars=63 ; Limit number of cars transmitted to client (values from 10 to 64)
    I am looking for a manner to remove/move the two exist cockpit icons - the circle and the man.
    I see they disappeared when you made the ini changes here.
    Thanks!
