XD HUD in 1.50

[Zaphod Christiani]

well XD HUD is gone for the new release
what alternatives are out there at the moment that feature real Delta-Time and work in 1.50?
(I know already that rfDynHUD doesn't have delta timing.)

BIG thanks in advance to help me get back that vital tool!!!

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

just received a message from the developer ... update for (G)SC(E) V1.50 available here:
http://vitumo.de

don't forget to offer him a little beer with the donate-button!

Got that email too. Great news!!!

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

works just fine!!! and very happy to find back all the missed data!!!
just one problem: I don't manage to get the Track-Map to work with XD-Hud?!

i went ahead and did the same modifications like in previous installations:
leaving the original d3d9.dll and renaming the XD d3d9.dll to d3d9_xd.dll and changing the TrackMapPlugin.ini to D3D9Dll=d3d9_xd.dll
but then ... in-game I have only the Track-Map and no XD-Hud ...

... did I miss something? does the Track-Map work with XD-Hud for you guys?

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

got it!
fortunately I kept the version 1.38!
all I did was replacing the d3d9.dll with the one from version 1.38
and all is working well: TrackMap and XD running together!

(to avoid any surprises, I deleted DynHUD and dynhud.dll from the "Plugins" folder)

Are you sure it is all ok? For me, I have strange temperature readings - all of them say 95860 or something similar. Plus, it says '00:30' next to the lap number for some strange reason.

I am not familiar with XD, any idea what would cause this please?

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

that is weird @Keith Windsor ... all good here with correct numbers!
did you install a previous XD.ini or let the new version of XD create one?
did you delete all DynHUD related files and folders (just to make sure)?
also did you rename the right d3d9.dll to d3d9_xd.dll (if you're using the TrackMap)?
(d3d9.dll = 476 KB / d3d9_xd.dll = 1'512 KB)

OK, good to know it works ok, thanks for confirming that, I will try to find out why it is happening here - I'll check my d3d9s first.

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

thanks to Yako (the guy who made the XD Hud).
he was trying to figure out why the TrackMap and XD were not running together ... and as he mentioned ... it drove him crazy but he came up with the solution!

basically you can keep the lastest d3d9.dll from V1.50 and rename the one that comes with XD to d3d9_2.dll

EDIT: no need to change the TrackMapPlugin.ini

finally have a look at the XD.ini to adjust the overlays to your liking and activate the delta-time in line 41 (which is off by default)
thats it to get back this great tool!!!

I'm having the same issue. I already removed DynHud. Don't know what else to do

 

[Zaphod Christiani]

really strange you number outputs!!!
there must be a conflict with something else that is installed?!
all good here and from other user's I am aware off.
i took the freedom and sent the link to Pieter's screenie to Yako ... maybe he might come up with an explanation?!

also an edit on my last post was done: no need to modify the TrackMapPlugin.ini
works with only renaming the d3d9 that comes with XD to d3d9_2.dll and leaving everything else untouched!
no more hustle of re-installing after a GSC Sync!

Which version of the game are you using Pieter? It does seem to work fine on v1.50, not sure what I did wrong the first time.

 

[PieterN]

I'm on 1.51 Keith.

 

[morsify]

Yes, I just realised it is working fine in 1.50 but not in 1.51
Probably best to be patient till GSC release version is finalized and then maybe the author can update it again.

 

[PieterN]

Ah, ok. Thanks for letting us know.

ohhh ... thats bad news!!! well I'am afraid that the author might run out of patience?!?

 

[morsify]

Pieter, 1.51 should not be being discussed here & I apologise for my part in that, I was just trying to clarify why it was working for some and not others.
Zaphod, that's why I said, I think if you're patient & wait for a more final version, I'm sure the author might be able to update it one more time.

 

[Will Mazeo]

Standings broken for someone else?

 

[TurcoMaldade_]

is it working on v1.51 ?

 

[Will Mazeo]

Here it isn't
