Lovely Dash Pro is here!
This is a milestone like no other. For the first time in forever, Lovely Sim Racing is introducing a brand-new dashboard: Lovely Dash Pro. It’s not just a new design. It’s a complete rethink of what a dashboard should be, in design, functionality and practicality.
And that’s not all. Alongside this release, we’re packing in a boatload of performance improvements across the board, plus new features for our existing dashboards!
Lovely Dash Pro requires a Pro Membership or above
Lovely Plugin v4.0.0.0
- Lovely Dash Pro support: a new Dash Pro tab to design your own dashboard, with a visual layout editor, pages per session, Lap Review, Alerts & Notifications, presets and a guided tutorial (Pro membership required).
- Layouts per device, sim, class and vehicle: every device can have its own preset, with its own paging buttons and controls.
- Dash Presets: Import and Export your layouts, or browse and install community presets with Browse Presets, and submit your own.
- Pit loss learning: learns what a pit stop and a drive-through cost at each track and class from your own races, and builds community pit loss data from shared race data.
- Car and Track Data: data from the Lovely Car Data and Track Data repo, kept locally so dashboards keep working offline.
- New data for dashboards: 5 and 10 lap averages, per-lap fuel and Virtual Energy, live sector progress, estimated position, iRacing class SoF and iRating estimate, penalties, weather, tire dirt, replay detection and more.
- Opponent data: tire compound, tire wear and Virtual Energy for LMU opponents, and opponent flags for iRacing and LMU.
- Better sim support:
- Native tire compound names and HUD-matching tire temperatures in LMU and rFactor 2.
- Stage distance, length and names for EA WRC, RBR and Dirt Rally 2.0.
- Corrected F1 tire and brake damage corners.
- Faster and more reliable: no longer slows SimHub's data updates, handles going offline gracefully, and keeps the last known values when data drops out (Held values).
- Welcome note and usage data: a one-time welcome note with an opt-in for anonymous usage and race data.
Lovely Dashboards v5.0.0
