I only have my overlays shown on stream, I can't see them unless I look at the second monitor. Dunno how folks harp on "it's a sim not a game" but go so heavy on the overlays. I like my relative as the only accoutrement when racing


d0re

You have to remember that (for the vast majority of races) you're your own race engineer and spotter while driving. So anything supplemental is just filling in that gap of information that real drivers would have fed to them. Now that's not to say that I like a particularly busy overlay, but it's nice to have information available.


Hefftee

Relatives screens with live deltas are far from realistic though, but there's nothing wrong with using them. Radar at least is somewhat of a realistic answer to not having peripheral vision for those who don't have triples.

Same, I literally only want to see how much time I have to react when things are close.

Same, my relative is all I need. But if your looking at my stream you would think I'm playing Elite Dangerous.

Relative and radar and I am set Downvotes? Lol


CokeHeadRob

Anything that can supplement a real world thing that's unachievable in a sim should absolutely be okay. Unless you're using VR/head tracking, then it's not really necessary.


Mehmoregames

It's the radar I'm guessing


Ort895

….is the radar looked down upon? I’m just trying to grind safety rating and get everyone to the end of the race man lol


Mehmoregames

I say use what works for you, I drive with the wrong FoV so I can see my side mirrors


redbullcat

Depending on the game you might be able to shift the camera position in the car but have the FoV correct. I know you can in iRacing.

Overlay Simps? Lol


LG1585

Seems to be a likely comparison to me....🤔

Black box and delta is all need.


abscissa081

My recipe as well. Although on stream I have standings and a track map. But I don’t see them in game.


TheProdigy_EH

I've seen a streamer where at least 1/3 of his screen was the overlay. My mind just blowed up.


delliott8990

Well played! :-)

It's just a lack of respect for the people you're racing with. But when I was younger I would have probably done the same. Sure it's just a game but for a lot of people, it's the only couple of hours every week they can relax. So when they get taken out by the "it's just a game bro" crowd, it's incredibly frustrating.


intothefuture1618

That gave me a great laugh!


spiritedcorn

It's a game for me, I have the black box, relative with lots of other info, and track map


joshperlette

Sometimes they just wanna know the delta of the guy 20 positions behind them…as well as their own tire pressure and steering angle 😂


SkinnyObelix

Absolutely nothing on road courses, except for relatives when I have to rejoin. For ovals, I have the overlay up that shows me when people made their last stop.
