Now this is very interesting! I wonder if there's a way of getting the data to display on the dashboard?

Wow, this is very cool. Great for checking things like top speed instead of going to the replay afterwards. Many thanks

It's only for Open GL users.

It says:

"Well, I have written such an utility but it only works under OpenGL rendering and only with gpl 1.2.0.2. It is still very beta and some feedback would be welcome. Maybe someone can give a hand on the Direct3D, 3dFx rendering."

Hmmm,, I'm running OpenGL (wiherrs patch) and the only way I can see this program is by alt-tabbing to it, but then I can't drive...

One could use same tricks in this app as I used in Movie Studio to hook into Direct/X display drawing. Results are generally excellent as long as you do not have to read anything from the video memory.

This is the best utility i`ve been waiting for.

Please make it for D3D also.

Is it possible to show splittimes - just like in GPx ???

Yes, I was wondering that too. Not necessarily split times, as just a running clock that resets with each lap start, so you can see your time as you drive around. Would be more helpful on the longer tracks, Spa, ring etc. Let you know if you're ahead, or stuffing the dog. Just a thought.

I can see GLPHOD, but none of the timers work, nor does the rev counter, and it says 'No Engine' in the bottom left.

Any ideas?

TIA

Hi there

Got the same probs as Cliff...
I?m running all the stuff I?m supposed to do,but I can?t get it to work as it should anyway..
I get the little window at the left top of my screen but it doesn?t seem to find my engine...?
It says "No engine" in red in the Gplhod window.I?ve got the speedcounter working but no revs displayed
and the gears are in R the hole time.The timecounter seem?s to be really wrong too...strange...
Any idea what?s wrong anyone..?

Oops, I'm running GPL v1.2.0.1!

Is v1.2.0.2 the speed patch?
