A much awaited update for the project!
Apologies for the long wait - Life stuff got in the way. In the process of simultaneously moving out and getting a new job much further out. Stress is an understatement. Thanks for everyone being patient and here we are in 2023! Let's make this a good one.
Additions/Changes:
- Added New Dashboard Companion. This can be used either on a second monitor, or beamed to a mobile device.
- This allows Xbox users to benefit from SimHub by routing through a PC.
- For info on how to route your Xbox data to PC, consult the README.
- Contains all the data present on top of the game, and will be the focus of development going forward.
- This part is considered in ALPHA. There may be visual issues and some unintended behaviour.- Added Wide Delta - Similar to iRacing, place this element centrally for a visual bar of time loss / gain.
- This uses the same visibility behaviour as the normal Delta.
- Boundaries are -3 and +3 seconds for gaining / losing time.
Fixes/QOL:
- Code optimisations.
- It is recommended to switch rendering to Simhub's HTML engine for improved performance in GPU-limited scenarios.
- Fixed a bug where reversed gauges would 'loop' back on themselves and cause visual issues in certain conditions.
So yes, Xbox support is here via a dedicated separate dashboard, and that's going to be the development path for the foreseeable future. I'm mostly happy with the overlay side of things and, short of breakthroughs that can benefit the overlay experience, I consider that part of the project more or less complete.
Definitely going to be working on more projects as time goes on, so watch this space.
