I always felt AMS2 hud can't really deliver all the informations I would like to see in a race. I especially enjoy multiclass races a lot, but the standard hud isn't really able to show you the race of your actual class. Since I couldn't find Simhub overlays that really fit my needs, I took the time to learn how to build my own simhub overlay. And after countless hours of programming and testing, it's finally ready for a very first version for the public. First big thanks to GarySwallow, without his Simhub Plugin some features wouldn't be possible. So make sure to install his GarySwallowDataPlugin for my overlay to work properly. You can download his Simhub Suite incl. the plugin here Let's take a look at a short overview of the key features: Build for multiclass racing, so all race data is matched to your class while you have a small monitor who's leading the other classes (up to 4 other classes) Tracking your sector times history and even show green and purple indicators for the best lap / sector of your class and your personal best Relatives showing your class laps ahead in red, your class laps behind in blue and other classes in purple to instantly see who's around you Changes displayed informations based on session type Visually inspired by F1, LMU and IMSA streams Now let's take a deep dive into my overlay, which is split in 8 different overlays, so you can choose by yourself which parts you want to use or not and where to move which part. 01. Class Leaderboard The Class leaderboards shows you all relevant informations to your race. Session type, your position, your current lap, time left. The most important part is obviously the rankings, which are always showing the top and the -+2 positions around it. It dynamically shifts if you're last place or within the top 7 to always show the best informations. You can also see the last lap of each driver in races, while in training and qualfying you see the best lap of each driver instead matching their current ranking of the session. The delta gap is always refering to the first car of your class, so you always know how far ahead the leader is. The board also shows who's in the Pit or have Drive Through penalties. Against AI the leaderboards also removed the (AI) tag on the names 02. Multiclass Leaderboard To get an overview how the race of other classes is going, the MC Leaderboard hows you the top 4 of each class (exluding your own car class) and the gap to their leading car. 03. Relatives One of the key things in a race is knowing what is happening around you. The relatives monitor give you an easy overview of the 3 cars ahead and behind you on the track (not position) with a delta to their relative position on the track. It also features 3 colors to highlight different relations to other cars: Purple: Different class Blue: The car is 1+ laps behind you Red: The car is -1 laps ahead of you 04. Telemetry Monitor The telemetry monitor shows you all important data for your car and setup in a very easy to read way. It features a shift indicator that moves inwards from green to red and then shows purple blinking when reaching the RPM limit. If your car features DRS the gear monitor shifts automatically, so you can see if you're DRS is activated by being highlighted green, and if you're in a restricted DRS car is will show you in yellow if you're in an DRS zone. The monitor is also inspired by the gauges of a C8 Corvette in Track Mode. It also features a Pit Limiter indicator, a small Headlight indicator and also indicates how you changed TCS, ABS, BB or ERS with a short time appearing green or red marker, you see it on the ABS here as a showcase. 05. Input Monitor Very clean and simple, just a graph of your throttle, brake and clutch input 06. Delta Monitor Inspired by LMU this delta indicator compared your lap to your best in this session and dynamically fills up a red bar to the left if you get up to 1s behind your best or a green bar to the right if you're up to 1s ahead of your best time. For time attack mode a smaller 2nd bar appears and shows your delta to your track record while the main bar still is set up for your best session time. 07. Laptime Monitor This is a all in one tool to monitor your current and last laps. AMS2 and all of the plugins don't feature any kind of session records. But I managed to get it working that you can see your last sectors of each lap. As you may know if from other racing games it also highlights the leading sector/lap of the whole session in purple and your personal best in this session in green. The comparison in limited to your past 20 laps, so for long races the indicators will not be perfectly accurate. For time attack it also displays your personal best. Have in mind the purple indicators still relate to the session best, not your all time. 08. Tire & Brake Monitor Simple and clean you can see your temperatures, pressure and wear of the tires and the brake temps. It also shows your equipped tire type. I custom matched the color grading from blue to red to match AMS2 tire indicators very closely. With tire wear the colored bars will decrease vertically to give an easier view of the current wear. RELEASES v1.0 - Initital Release - 05.04.2025 - Download: Overtake.gg | Webhost INSTALLATION Download and unpack the zip file. Doubleclick on each .simhubdash file to import it to simhub, simhub will give you a prompt if you want to install it. Then create your own overlad and add and scale each overlay part to where you want it. KNOWN BUGS There's currently no way to display time pentalies of each driver in simhub. I am still prototyping my own coding to get that, but since it is still very broken in mp races I deactivated it for release. Hopefully I can get it working in the future With how the connection from AMS2 to Simhub works some informations like delta times might not appear in a fomation lap or within first lap of a race. The laptimer sometimes don't reset your session correctly, still showing you the last laps of a past session. Since it's the first version for the public I'm sure there will be some bugs I've missed. NOTES This Simhub overlay is specfially build for AMS2. I haven't done any testing to make it work for other games besides that. Also feel free to reuse coding of mine or make adjustsment. Just be fair enough to give credits if you release it and share your updated coding with me so I am able to improve this overlays with it Please report feedback and bugs directly in this topic so I can keep track of it. I didn't test every single car with the overlay, so if you find missing carmaker graphics in the leaderboard of car specific bugs in the overlays, please report them here too. Hopefully this Overlay really bring your multiclass races in AMS2 to a whole new level and you enjoy it as much as I do. Best regards, Steve (Ace)
