For non-VR users this is a complete annoyance in the Formula Ultimate. Can we please get an option to either remove it or have it 25% transparent?
Agreed. F1 games have the option to make the halo transparent, that would be a great option to have in AMS2.
Yeah, totally agree, wasn't that an option in ams1 as well, or at least for the formula ultimate 2017 car, especially for the non vr uses it can get in the way, for me it ruins the pleasure of driving this car.
I second the notion of a HALO-less version, either as a pre-HALO "F-Ultimate Gen 1" or a similar option. Was actually thinking about posting this request myself (again), so thanks for doing so, @GodzillaGTR
I think this is a legitimate request for sure - in VR you barely notice the halo, you just look past it and you tend to be looking in the corners near the apex anyway and it really isn't a hindrance. In 2D though it really gets in the way and I'd argue it's actually less realistic to have it so visible.
iRacing has a transparent halo vertical connecting bar option in their new Mercedes F1. It's awesome...otherwise, impossible to drive with it visible on a monitor.
I use vr but I also have a lazy eye. Most times I see in the visor the same as I would in real life but the halo does mess up my vision. It would be great to be able to remove it.
I used to be the one that whinged and bitched about the halo when it first came out and wondered why nobody else complained, until I found out they were all using VR. I now use VR, and while still not nice, is no longer a problem. Regarding a "halo-less" option, one mod (modern F1) we used (in rF2) did allow this, and I have to say it felt like a breath of fresh air. One driver even picked the V12 engine sound that mod also supported, which enhanced his pleasure. I know this is going to be criticised because this game's meant to be a simulator, but some use the bonnet view to enhance their pleasure. Also, it's more work, and Reiza already have plenty to do.
No, the F-Reiza is based on the previous generation of Formula cars before the Ultimate. (Using V8 engines instead of V6 Turbos, iirc.) AMS1 however, did originally have the F-Ultimate without the HALO (just as it was in RL back then) and the one with the HALO was added later on.
