In our last race I saw no lights anywhere and didnt move until i saw the car in front of me go. This has happened a few times and I know Smokey has the lights come up on his HUD and was wondering where is the setting for that?

GiD is what I use. It might be called TrackMap now. Fazerbox is the creator. It does a crapload of other cool stuff too.

oh not sure I can use that since I am using SoftTH so I can run dual monitors. I think that GID uses the same dll as softTh.

yeah it uses the same d3d9.dll that softTH uses so I don't think I can use both/

There is a way to specify alternate d3d9.dll in the GID INI file. See the documentation. It is designed to work with other plugins. That said, I don't know for sure if it works with SoftTH.

You can also cycle through your LCD displays. One of the displays will show "RACE TIME: " at the bottom. It will remain blank during pre-race. When the green drops, the timer will start ticking (up if the race distance is based on laps, down if the race distance is based on time). It's not quite as nice as another set of lights, but it works and is part of the standard sim.
