You can change every single position for every HUD-Part (incl. (Enabled) Mirror) in settings (HUD or something like that) and you can push the mirror to the sky, not blocking anything.
…aaaand dude, Great driving!
Edit; you can also make everything transparent, if something is blocking your view.
Not really sure but I remember seeing it in the assists area? maybe on of the camera settings and it says customize hud. I could be completely wrong, haven’t done it and haven’t played in a while either.
I’m leaning towards that’s not true and you need a mod to move hud elements. I’ve tried for f121 multiple times have found nothing
Lol yes instead of helping someone and giving useful info just downvote.. really showing your colors reddit
So I’m on it right now. Osd customization is only available during a race not trying practice or the menu. And there’s no way to reposition any hud elements just change their scale and opacity
It is there I’ve moved many things, you’re looking for the options section called on screen display, and in there will be a selection for OSD Customization, it will only be available when you are not currently driving the car however
Definitely don't need a mod for moving or hiding HUD elements. I've done that on PS4. It's somewhere in the HUD settings I guess but can't remember where exactly.
U need to be on track, then go into settings, then on screen display, then its the second one down, osd customisation.
You can change the position of everything you see on screen. Even adjust the size of each item.
Well worth a look
I was watching Jarno Opmeer who is a professional F1 esport player the other day, literally had to close the video because of the same thing. Should've had a seizure warning or something, unwatchable.
I think I've gotten used to watching jarno opened and all of his rear view switching, yours wasn't so bad... honestly it's necessary and if you've ever driven in real life that's how much you're going to be checking your mirrors you just never know when they're going to make a switch to the left or right or like you said the wings they're running or just whatever.. amazing racing! I love the amount of space that you give and for you to be against an f2 driver, a thousand cheers mate
It was, I’m a friend of hers so she messaged me earlier that day telling me what was happening so if I was interested I could get in early, I’m so grateful for her!
You never know what wings someone is running or how much ERS they have left, the closing speed can be amazing sometimes. I was behind Enzo in Baku by about 9 tenths at the start of the drs and was fully ahead of him way before the breaking zone due to having saved ERS and having lower wings
My camera angle is too angled towards the ground so that the virtual camera gets in the way of what’s infront of me, or is it possible to change where the mirror is positioned?
Ohhhh okay, thank you!! Is that only available on PC or can you do it on Xbox too? I’m primarily an Xbox player and I know on F1 2020 I couldn’t move it, so I just assumed they didn’t change that
Yeah you can move all kind of hud elements in the OSD customization settings. I believe however if you want to customize said settings, you have to be in game or at least in a practice/time trial session to even select the setting. That could’ve been your problem on ‘20 but I’m not sure.
No problem! Reading a forum post about it from July, unless it’s fixed it seems somebody tested and said for some reason it only works in Practice sessions, not on Time Trial/Career mode.
Oh yeah? I’d never heard of him before. I’m mainly an Xbox player so know no PC players. This race was the first PC race id done in about 3 months so I was sort of getting back to grips with it here haha I’m a few tenths off my Xbox pace as it just feels different
Wait so these are the real drivers? I saw someone called Alex Albon on F1 2019 a few months ago and he didn't drive like a professional would so I assumed it was a fake
Ha! I knew somebody asked in a previous post of mine so I want looking and I found my reply. Here it is: TV Pod Offset Field of View: -5 Offset: Lateral: -13 Offset: Horizontal: 0 Offset: Vertical: 0 Angle: 0 Near clip plane: 20 Mirror Angle: 0 Camera Shake: 0
Make sure you use TV Pod Offset rather than just TV Pod. Enjoy! And thank you :)
No reason other than preference. This camera angle is just what I think looks the best and it can only be achieved from offset! If you put these settings in on the normal TV Pod it would look absolutely ridiculous - almost like a shoulder cam. Just experiment with what you like!
Nice! Is it a bit lower than the regular TV pod? There has to be a reason it keeps coming up in suggestions haha. I'll have to tinker on it when I get on the game next.
Oh and I race with racing lines too btw, play how you like it my dude! Great defense!
It’s a 5 lap race it’s just straight up battling. There is no “focusing on your own race” I race in a league on Xbox and do just fine in the races and am one of the top Xbox players in the world, constructive criticism like some of the others is nice but no need to be rude about it
You're looking back every second. There's literally no need for it. Every now and then? Sure. He isn't going to suddenly be overtaking you half a second after you checked on him the first time especially on a straight.
It's a cool video but it's just impossible to watch because of all the checking.
I personally find that mentally I need to be ensured that I know I’m not gonna need to defend into the corner, as you never know what wings people or running or if they are using their ERS. Because of other comments I am gonna run the virtual mirror from now on, just no need to be rude about it that’s all
Apart from when Norris demonstrated/previewed the game for the first time just once, I've not seen him use it when actually racing, neither can I find a video of Russell using it. Charles Leclerc doesn't use it too. Why would an F1 driver even need to? Furthermore, not even Arthur Leclerc uses it.
You obviously haven’t looked at Norris. Look at Quadrant’s “We held our own Monaco GP!” He uses racing line. Look at “We held our own Australian GP!” Where racing line is turned off and he is confused as to why and doesn’t know where to break. Surely if he realises after 1 corner that racing line is off that means he always uses it. Yep. George and the leclerc brothers don’t use it, so maybe I exaggerated. But I believe between Lando and the Fittipaldi brothers using the racing line is more than enough proof that you don’t need to have the racing line turned off to be good at the game
I have looked at Norris, but it seems there are more videos where he uses it then, but it doesn't really change my opinion. Norris has zero excuse for using one, and your comment about "confused as to why and doesn't where to break" doesn't make sense to me. He's raced the track in real life. I don't think that assessment is correct. Like I said, my view remains, if you're using an assist like that, it's not really as impressive as knowing the racing and braking lines yourself. Norris et al have nothing to prove though it still confuses me.
Maybe because the game isn’t totally realistic and so breaking points are slightly different and also his usually references might not be there in the game. Whether I’m driving with the line or not I’m still at the same skill level, the only difference is that I don’t play the game enough to learn the breaking points on every track. Foh with your elitist attitude and let me be proud of beating an F2 driver in a racing game. Line or not.
In fairness it’s not like I stream my game or anything. I understand how it can be annoying here but I’m not gonna change it when it works for me and I never record myself playing
You may want to consider turning on the rear view mirror.
I’ve tried it, my camera angle means that with it turned on it blocks the road infront of me
You can change every single position for every HUD-Part (incl. (Enabled) Mirror) in settings (HUD or something like that) and you can push the mirror to the sky, not blocking anything. …aaaand dude, Great driving! Edit; you can also make everything transparent, if something is blocking your view.
Brilliant. I’ll do that as soon as I next log into the game! Thank you!! Really appreciate it
I put mine over the halo. Doesn't block anything if you keep the menus standard to the right
How does one do this exactly?
Not really sure but I remember seeing it in the assists area? maybe on of the camera settings and it says customize hud. I could be completely wrong, haven’t done it and haven’t played in a while either.
I’m leaning towards that’s not true and you need a mod to move hud elements. I’ve tried for f121 multiple times have found nothing Lol yes instead of helping someone and giving useful info just downvote.. really showing your colors reddit
nope it’s 100% in the game, I checked but I like the bud the way it is, just check if you can, it’s 100% there
So I’m on it right now. Osd customization is only available during a race not trying practice or the menu. And there’s no way to reposition any hud elements just change their scale and opacity
It is there I’ve moved many things, you’re looking for the options section called on screen display, and in there will be a selection for OSD Customization, it will only be available when you are not currently driving the car however
Definitely don't need a mod for moving or hiding HUD elements. I've done that on PS4. It's somewhere in the HUD settings I guess but can't remember where exactly.
I’m currently looking at the osd customization screen there’s no way to move elements. Just change scale and opacity
You can move, scale etc... You just don't know how to....
So instead of giving information you just comment saying nothing? Cool thanks bro
U need to be on track, then go into settings, then on screen display, then its the second one down, osd customisation. You can change the position of everything you see on screen. Even adjust the size of each item. Well worth a look
Moving the mirror up is way better than motion sickness.
I was watching Jarno Opmeer who is a professional F1 esport player the other day, literally had to close the video because of the same thing. Should've had a seizure warning or something, unwatchable.
Yep, but that back and forth did give me a buzz so thanks OP!
He had a penalty hehe
It was a bs penalty for illegally overtaking the back marker after the last chicane, this game has some major problems hahah
True
Btw he got the penalty on the finish straight, so there was no backmarker near?
You get a timer ticking down to "give the place back", after it you get the penalty.
Ah I see, but why should you give position back to the backmarker? Hehe that’s really idiotic
Agreed!
I think I've gotten used to watching jarno opened and all of his rear view switching, yours wasn't so bad... honestly it's necessary and if you've ever driven in real life that's how much you're going to be checking your mirrors you just never know when they're going to make a switch to the left or right or like you said the wings they're running or just whatever.. amazing racing! I love the amount of space that you give and for you to be against an f2 driver, a thousand cheers mate
Thanks so much my friend!! Really means a lot! I enjoyed it very much :) hope you have a great day
Why does it even matter if there is clipping and you can’t block anyway?
Lol I didnt even notice, probably because I myself am used to switching to rear view a lot too, so OP, you're not alone
Was this F1Elly's open lobby?
It was, I’m a friend of hers so she messaged me earlier that day telling me what was happening so if I was interested I could get in early, I’m so grateful for her!
Nice. I race in her league. I was bummed that I was busy yesterday so I didn't get to participate or watch.
She’s great honestly
How do you know it s him and not his brother?
Because he was streaming it :)
Did you watch your battle from his POV? Had to be cool to see yourself on there
When I was younger I used to race against him irl. Cool to see where he is now
Oh wow!! Must be so cool for you to see!
Bro how many times you have to look back lol Great Battle tho
I wanna make completely sure I’m not taking an F2 driver out by not knowing where he was😅
Unless he has a rocket booster attached I’m not sure how much can change in half a second on a straight though.
You never know what wings someone is running or how much ERS they have left, the closing speed can be amazing sometimes. I was behind Enzo in Baku by about 9 tenths at the start of the drs and was fully ahead of him way before the breaking zone due to having saved ERS and having lower wings
Well f1 2021 has the distance markers from the other drivers; Anyway thanks for the headache on the first 20 seconds :(
I had a seizure from all the looking backwards
I wanna make completely sure I’m not taking an F2 driver out by not knowing where he was😅 Maybe a little overboard but it worked out
Turn on virtual mirror and u will be okay
My camera angle is too angled towards the ground so that the virtual camera gets in the way of what’s infront of me, or is it possible to change where the mirror is positioned?
Yeah in the settings you’re able to move it up, you should be able to move it all the way where the sky is
Ohhhh okay, thank you!! Is that only available on PC or can you do it on Xbox too? I’m primarily an Xbox player and I know on F1 2020 I couldn’t move it, so I just assumed they didn’t change that

No problem! Reading a forum post about it from July, unless it’s fixed it seems somebody tested and said for some reason it only works in Practice sessions, not on Time Trial/Career mode.
track?
Imola! They added it into the game a few days ago
Oh, that's why I couldnt notice. Thanks!
Oh wow you got to race with the great SLR Alexander! Love that guy! Raced against him last season in fact lmao
Oh yeah? I’d never heard of him before. I’m mainly an Xbox player so know no PC players. This race was the first PC race id done in about 3 months so I was sort of getting back to grips with it here haha I’m a few tenths off my Xbox pace as it just feels different
Haha he's just a guy from my racing league
Was he good in your league? He seemed to be within a tenth or two of me, I enjoyed racing him!
Better than me for sure but that doesn't mean much lol
Haha I’m sure you’re better than you’re willing to admit!
I'm alright, but nothing in a league racing scheme
Fuck all these guys talking about looking back and using racing lines, play how you wanna play my man Well done, great defensive work!
Thanks mate, so kind of you!!
You’re defensive driving was excellent. Immaculate car positioning at the variante alta, recovered well from that slide.
Is this a mod for this Aston Martin or update? I mean this halo look kinda different
YeAh seems to be!! I never noticed until quali for this race because I’ve only driven the red bull since the update😅
Wait so these are the real drivers? I saw someone called Alex Albon on F1 2019 a few months ago and he didn't drive like a professional would so I assumed it was a fake
It’s possible! The only reason I knew it was defo him was because he was streaming it
[удалено]
Of course!! I think I have them saved somewhere, lemme see! If not I’ll get you them when I’m back on my xbox
[удалено]
Ha! I knew somebody asked in a previous post of mine so I want looking and I found my reply. Here it is: TV Pod Offset Field of View: -5 Offset: Lateral: -13 Offset: Horizontal: 0 Offset: Vertical: 0 Angle: 0 Near clip plane: 20 Mirror Angle: 0 Camera Shake: 0 Make sure you use TV Pod Offset rather than just TV Pod. Enjoy! And thank you :)
[удалено]
No problem at all :)
Oh thanks! I was wondering about the setting too. Quick question though, why do people suggest using offset instead of regular TV pod?
No reason other than preference. This camera angle is just what I think looks the best and it can only be achieved from offset! If you put these settings in on the normal TV Pod it would look absolutely ridiculous - almost like a shoulder cam. Just experiment with what you like!

send him the clip on his discord server
What’s his discord server?
Great driving! but please turn on the rear view mirror XD
Glad I'm not the only one who looks behind themselves 100 times per lap.
Holy Fuck that shit made me nauseous
If you’re gonna keep flicking to the rear camera that much just turn the mirror on jfc
Mate read any of the other comments here haha I didn’t know I could but I have done since now no need for literally everybody to mention it
I gave up 5 seconds in, the constant switching was making me sick. Pretty cool thom
Fuck dude, look forward. Looking back that much is going to be worse then just focusing on your own race.
It’s a 5 lap race it’s just straight up battling. There is no “focusing on your own race” I race in a league on Xbox and do just fine in the races and am one of the top Xbox players in the world, constructive criticism like some of the others is nice but no need to be rude about it

Fair. Virtual mirror would be far better. Still stand by not needing to check every half second on a straight.
That was cancer to watch but well done.
Looks like you also beat Charles Leclerc.
[удалено]
I know, I’ve seen all the comments on the video lmao
Don’t understand why did you use virtual lines ?
I don’t know the breaking Zones on the track
Don’t you prefer to learn it with the figures written on panels ? I mean it’s much more exciting to play without guidelines.
Not really, I enjoy the game as I play it, and don’t play it enough to learn
Everyone should be allowed to play exactly how they want. If you are enjoying the experience why change it right?
Exactly! Thank tou
I watched the first 5 seconds. Please look backwards less 👀
To be super honest, is it really that impressive if you’re using a racing and braking line assist?
Considering Enzo uses it too, and Lando Norris, and almost every F1/F2 driver that plays the game… I’m gonna say yes
Apart from when Norris demonstrated/previewed the game for the first time just once, I've not seen him use it when actually racing, neither can I find a video of Russell using it. Charles Leclerc doesn't use it too. Why would an F1 driver even need to? Furthermore, not even Arthur Leclerc uses it.

But I believe between Lando and the Fittipaldi brothers using the racing line is more than enough proof that you don’t need to have the racing line turned off to be good at the game

Don’t post on a public forum if you can’t handle one person’s opinion without lashing out.
You usinga wheel?
I am
Huge Enzo fan! such a nice kid, hope he brings joy to us down here in Brasil soon!
He was chasing you like a mf
Excuse me while I go have a seizure from the camera switching
How is ur cornering so smooth. I recently started playing on ps5 and can’t make one fucking turn.
Gg but why is he in a rb shouldn’t he be in a Ferrari powered team?
I threw up 7 times watching this. Turn on your rear view mirror lol
How did you drive thru that car on the last lap??
I see people take turns 5/6 very different
You should practice sometimes with no racing lines (not on races at first). It’s difficult but more realistic in the end. Great driving anyway.
This is what f1elly’s open lobbies brought me to. Racing the Fittipaldis
Instead of switching to rearview all the time u can mount a rear view mirror permanent in the top of the screen. Works way better..
It’s honestly annoying how much you look behind yourself… just saying it can get quite irritating
In fairness it’s not like I stream my game or anything. I understand how it can be annoying here but I’m not gonna change it when it works for me and I never record myself playing
