CleanHUD - Minimalist HUD Replacement for AMS

CleanHUDv0.1.1
CleanHUD is a minimalist HUD replacement for AMS using a set of new widgets designed from the ground up to be clean and modern in design. Widgets included currently are:

1. Relative Positioning and Race Info (laps/position/leading and trailing drivers)
2. Gear indicator: switches to red font near redline
3. Pedals

For this release, the widgets only display in the Race session, but you can manually add them to other overlay configs using the DynHUD...

SHOTIME updated CleanHUD with a new update entry:

Default Font Fix

Fixed a small bug where the default font settings were used when adding a new instance of the widgets in the editor, instead of the custom font settings as seen in the screenshots. Now new widget instances will be formatted correctly. This doesn't affect users who weren't customizing the layout using the editor.

SHOTIME updated CleanHUD with a new update entry:

Pedal Position Change

Switched the throttle and clutch pedal positions around to match the layout in a real car (clutch/brake/throttle).

Also made a couple of small changes to draw frequency for certain objects to minimize performance impact.

SHOTIME updated CleanHUD with a new update entry:

Fuel Widget and Bug Fixes

New:

• Added new fuel widget. Displays fuel remaining in the units specified in the player's PLR file, estimated remaining laps, and a horizontal bar that scales and color codes with remaining laps.
• Added support for timed races on the relative widget. Timed races now show the remaining time in the laps section instead of "--" as previous versions had. Lap-based races still show remaining laps as you'd expect.

Fixed:

• Fixed a graphics issue in the...

SHOTIME updated CleanHUD with a new update entry:

Timer Update

Small update to the session remaining time feature in the relative widget.

Fixed:
- No longer counts down past zero; when the session timer hits zero, it stops.

Changed:
- When the session timer hits zero, it turns red to make it a little more obvious on a quick glance.

Version Number Change

I didn't think the last update was worth a version number change, but that prevented the new zip from being posted (it seems). Please see the changelog for that, as nothing has changed in the last 5 minutes.

I'm confused, I have installed this clean hud, but I don't see it. Is there something I am missing? Should I be in the native or dyna hud?

I'm confused, I have installed this clean hud, but I don't see it. Is there something I am missing? Should I be in the native or dyna hud?

To answer your last question, you should be in DynHUD mode. I did just try them on a fresh install of DynHUD (deleted and let Steam redownload both folders that CleanHUD adds to), and they worked fine for me.

Please note that currently, CleanHUD widgets only show during the Race session by default (you can put them in other sessions with the editor if you want, but my zip only replaces the default Race session); so is it during a race that they aren't showing up for you?

 

[Bill Thayer]

For some reason I still don't see the clean hud as pictured. Am I missing something with the installation?

 

[SHOTIME]

Huh, that's strange. Are you extracting the zip to the root of your game installation (steamapps\common\AMSBeta or Automobilista) folder? The first item in the zip is a "Plugins" folder, which you should extract and merge with the "Plugins" in your game folder.

Can you confirm that if you go into steamapps\common\AMSBeta\Plugins\DynHUD\widget_sets\ that you have a "cleanhud" folder? If not, something went sideways with the extraction. If so, can you go to the DynHUD folder and into log and grab the DynHUD log?

 

[Bill Thayer]

I don't seem to be able to upload the DynHUD log file. It goes away when I try to save it.
And I do have a cleanhud folder with a zip file in it.
I am in race mode.

 

[SHOTIME]

To confirm, there should be a .jar file in the "cleanhud" folder (see attached). Is that what you have? If not, something isn't right with the extraction.

Sorry it's being such a trouble getting it working for you.

 

[Bill Thayer]

Nope, no .jar file....Just the winrar zip cleanhud. I quit

I just checked your file and inside the widget_sets/cleanhud/ is the zip file cleanhud.jar as a zip file.
But in my intstallation it is not a .jar file. Should I extract this file where it sits?

 

[SHOTIME]

I'm sorry, I'm just somewhat confused at this point.

If this isn't what you're doing, could you possibly extract the downloaded zip to your desktop (or any handy folder) and manually copy and paste the Plugins folder from it into your game directory? If you've done that, then I'm currently running short on ideas, as much as I had to say it.

Also, while .jars are actually just archives and tools like 7Zip and WinRar will open them, doing so will prevent the DynHUD plugin from reading the widgets, so I wouldn't; it needs to sit in "widget_sets/cleanhud" as a jar in order for the game to see it.

 

[Bill Thayer]

Ok, It's working now in race now, is there a way to get the hud to work all the time?
Practice and Q sessions etc. ?

 

[SHOTIME]

Great, glad you got it working!

So far as the other sessions, I may include them at some point. For now, if you want it in all sessions, you can go into your Plugins\DynHUD\config folder and do the following:

Delete overlay.ini
Create a copy my overlay_RACE.ini and rename that to just overlay.ini

That should make my HUD layout the default in all sessions, but I'm not 100% certain, as I haven't actually tried it.

SHOTIME updated CleanHUD with a new update entry:

Sector Timings

Added a new widget, Sectors, which shows individual sector times for all drivers.

New:

• Sector Times widget that displays, in paginated form, the sector times for all drivers. Can be toggled in game between last lap sector times and best sector times.

Changed:

• CleanHUD is now the default in HUD in all sessions, totally replacing the original AMS HUD.
• Zip now includes key bindings config file, in order to make the hotkeys for the sector timings...

Not enough space in the review section, so I just want to add, this is the first time I have ever seen other drivers' sector times on a widget.
Really valuable info for the garage overlay, thanks again for adding this

You're welcome, thanks for the idea!

Is there a chance for a 1280x720 optimized version? Thank you for this mod.
