Rivali OV1 Info app

Hey guys,

I don't know why I didn't post the app here before, but here you go

Hope you guys will enjoy it, as much as I do!

Description: OV1 Info app is an all-in-one information hub. It has a modern design that hopefully will suit many users and it has the required information, which I think are vital for practice and racing.

Here's a preview of the app at work:

Installation:
Download the file (link at the bottom of the post). Extract the folders inside the Assetto Corsa root folder:

Code:

..\Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\

The folder "OV1Info" should be next to the "gMeter" and "system" folders.

!!! IMPORTANT !!!
Please make sure you enable the app by going to AC's Settings Panel > General (bottom of the screen).
For those of you who already use this app, when updating, make sure you don't overwrite your "best_lap.ini" file. Cut and paste to another folder, delete your old "ov1info" folder. Extract the new files and replace the new "best_lap.ini" with your old one.

For V4.0 the folder structure has been changed: "best_lap.ini" and "car_info.ini" files can be found inside the "userdata" folder.
Known issues:

For those of you who use OV1 F1 2014 HUD as well, please make sure you update it to the latest version (link in my signature). Both apps need to be updated to avoid malfunctions.
Waiting for your input on this

Change log v1.0 (January 6th, 2014):

Version change: I declare this a finished product of course there are things to add to it, but in this current state it's functional and it has more than everything I thought I could put in it.

Change log v0.7 (January 5th, 2014):

New and improved design;
Color schemes with predefined colors;
Tachometer animation is now much more smoother and looks like an actual tachometer;
Tachometer has RPM labels which represent your actual car's RPM value (that was a pain...);

Graphical fuel gauge has been added;
Low fuel working is customizable from the user config file;
Delta meter has been added, with custom min. and max. limits;
Pit limiter signal light is now working;

Car's max_rpms value is now accessed from the Shared Memory. "cars_info.ini" now only stores fuel consumption for track and car combination;

Thanks for all the suggestions guys!

Change log v0.4 (December 10th, 2013):

Major code improvement. App now more flexible and less demanding on the system (hopefully);
Tachometer animation is now available. It's using a temporary method until we get the necessary dev tools for a better solution, but it works just fine!
Shift-light over-reving fix. You can now rev the snot out of your engine, the app knows when to shift (again, hopefully);
Users can change the units from "metric" (Kph) to "imperial" (Mph), editing the "user_config.ini". A better solution for switching between units is in development.
