WEC Style Overlay

Posts: 61
Hi Guys,

I'd like to show my current (WIP) WEC inspired overlay for endurance races with my team :)
I'm not running a "TV broadcast" channel. I designed this to give my viewer base a bit more information in a way that's easy to read.

Enjoy the screenshots!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
(Note: Some screenshots display faulty information due to not having selected the team its meant for)

Basic overlay that's running at all times


An additional information's box whenever our team switches driver.


Additional information's box that appears whenever the fastest lap is set. (This is successfully tested during a couple of races)


Added a classification on the bottom for the separated classes.
Shows each teams their fastest lap during practice. And shows the gap to the class leader during the race:


And the overall classification for all classes combined:

Wow, this looks nice and clean! Do you have any plans to release it for the community?

Not sure, some aspects only work with additional external inputs beforehand.. (the driver swap box for example.)

Hi :) It would be possible that you give me your overlay in exchange for advertising for your team on my streams?

Update:

The main ticker on the bottom is updated aswell, now shows fastest lap times during practice, shows intervals to the car in front during races.

Yea, took a while to get the "split" ticker function to work. Basicly its 2 tickers with 6rows as a display, only top 3 are shown. Therefor the "next" page looks proper :)

Those drivers and selected drivers in figure 2 are all created manually and imported into the overlay file. I created a separate image for each driver and called them using the driver switch and matching it to the driver ID.

This is one of the reasons why I didn't make this overlay public.

Sorry for the very late answer, been struggling with health issues for a while.

I'm in the process of making a WEC overlay myself, this looks amazing. How could I get the color stripes, the classification with the class name, and the classification rows to work? Thanks!

The color indicators (the stripes etc) are all done using dynamic images. I've created an image for each class respectively.
For the classification rows I used 2 separate instances, the left side has an offset of 1 I believe (Build the overlay back in end 2019/early 2020), and the right side has an offset of 4 (basicly the left side displays pos 1,2,3 and the right side displays 4,5,6. And after a set interval both jump 3 places, so the left side ends up displaying 7,8,9 and right side displays 10,11,12)

Took me a couple of hours to get this to work properly back then.
Might redo the entire overlay with all the newer updates added by the dev team.

Cool, thank you. I'll have to mess aroumd, if you do make a new overlay I'd be down to pass my styling onto you!
