Virtual mirror missing

Hi all, 

I'm a veteran of racing games (I'm very old now lol) I love my sim racing you name the game and I have it, just not very fast 😢, It's been a long time since I played an F1 game, but for some reason, I can't get my virtual mirror or my track map to show up in the game even though I have them activate in the on-screen display menu, what am I doing wrong 😂

    When you went out on track then paused the game then to the menus then clicked on OSD customisation screen (Surely they could have find a easy more straightforward way.... Kids 🙄😂)  to finally seeing all the different elements to cycle through,  🤷🏻‍♂️ 

    What  session did you pause the game in.,. Practice,  Qualifying, Race,  Time Trial?  If you were doing practice.  The customisation screen layout is set to Race by default.  If you look to bottom left of screen you should see it displayed.   As Race.  Then what button to click to cycle through all the different sessions.   Race-Qualifying-practice etc.   

    still with me?  Cause I'm confusing myself:

    Anyhow on every session OSD screen cycle through every individual element  until you come to mirror and map.  Once they are highlighted click on them which will bring up the element options transparency, size and a on off toggle option to make them visible.   Obviously you want it set to on.   Click back button.  It should ask you to confirm in the bottom right corner. 🤷🏻‍♂️Once confirmed both off them.  Cycle to next screen for example Race - practice and repeat until all relevant sessions you use are done 

    Hopefullly this will solve your problem.  But I can't promise anything as bugs are widespread and pop up everywhere   

    Sorry if I've stated the obvious or sent you cross eyed...   But the OSD customisation screen is one of the most user unfriendly interfaces I've  come across in a game

     

    Good luck!

  • I would go into the OSD customisation while on track and just make sure those elements are not showing as hidden

  • I feel you pain.   I feel as though I'm getting to the age that every lap I do I get a 10th slower

    I tried that there and still can't get the Virtual mirror or the mini track to show up.

  • ScarDuck14thanks for this, it's exactly what I was looking for, but why oh why did they make it this convoluted, man that's a lot of settings to go through to get the virtual mirror and the map  🤪
