Hope this is in the right place. So i tried to follow the guide i seen someone had on here and base that off how to add driver headshots. And i can't lie its not going well. like i have 0 idea on how to do this. is there a another way for a dumb person like me to figer this out lol

There are 2 ways to do it
Both involve the same setup

1st way is by labeling the images as Driver Name aka Adam Chapman, Jason Allison and so on. or whatever it is for iRacing if it is Adam Chapman2 it would need to be labeled as such.

2nd way is by labeling the images as the driver id aka 23900, 114507 and so on

they all need to be the same format jpg,png and so on

From there you need to make a image box the size of all the images that you will be using so say 200x200 for the headshot size.
Making a Dynamic image setup.

Background
Dynamic Background
path for the image folder (located in the content folder of the theme)
Driver/{0}.png (or whatever the .jpg/png and so on may be)

Data Binding set to either driverid or driver name or how you name the files

This is all done in background....

After that go to data and make sure there is no binding {0:0} <--- erase
that way you do not have text in there with the pictures.

ok i think i can work with this thank you jason

Use driver ID as a reference, as that for me have been the best for that type of stuff

Agreed.

It is less likely to mess up going this route.
Names can be almost the same just with a number or 1 letter different.

ID is what I use for driver headshots, driver logos and so on.

ok thank you all so much im about to start right now please pray

When i save the driver id does it need to be named driverid 214128 or can it just be 214128

Nevermind i have got it worked out thank you guys so much

One more question. If i dont have some of the drivers photos can i use a default img of this. Would i need to add it the same way or can i just make it default and not need the driver id

Just set the Default Image property, it will be used in case the dynamic image path does not lead to a valid image.

ty nick worked great

I've followed all the steps above and I am only getting the Default Driver image to show up for every driver. Currently all my images are named for example 24973.png

Gard if you need help ill be more then happy to help you with that. you can pm me your theme info and ill do it for you... or i can just take some screen shots of mine and show you what i did

Thanks Adam, got it working, I was naming the Path wrong by including the entire path from C:/ on instead of just the folder within the image assets. Hopefully that helps anyone else who was wondering.

Just started working on this but no luck I took out the default image i was using, I sized and named my headshots with the correct iRacing driver "Fullname" As i don't know everyone's ID number.. I have all the photos in the content/Driver folder and I have the correct path. I have only done a test by myself in a test room and checked it on a replay of a race i was in.. Not sure what i'm doing wrong..

You have to respect the case of name, James is different than james, and some special caracters are give problem.
With ID driver is easy, no errors possible between 1 and 1.
When you add your folder in Theme/image, think to close Theme ATVO, Restart and save your project. Because Theme Editor have to know where your picture are and save the pass.

For ID, if you have the result page of iRacing, you can export in CSV the result and get easly the ID of each driver.

Thanks Emmanuel but still no luck. I found the Driver Id's' Renamed the photos and have them placed in the themes/content/driver folder I also Changed the dynamic data binding to driverid I have the path as drivers/{0}.png and I have a default image set for drivers I don't have photos for..
Still not working for me..

You have to place it under theme/content/image/driver folder

Is your Widget is Visible ?

Yes everything seems fine other than the fact of the driver image not showing up. I’ve been testing it on a replay so i’m Wondering if that’s the issue.. I will be broadcasting a league race this evening so I will know for sure then.

I have it now I went back over everything and realized i had my driver folder named drivers one letter off lol thanks for the help

It is usually an issue like this yes. I will see if I can make this process a bit more intuitive and give a bit more helpful warning or error if the image is not found (instead of just a blank image).
