This will be a standalone addon to give the functionality of
Italian TVStyle Helmet view with some added animations .

You'll also be able to run this outside of the helmet as a fullscreen blind/overlay .

Users interested to try this addon are urged/recommended to make a clean install to test it ,if this is not an option try to backup your rFactor install before you install this addon.

Thanx to Italian TVStyle's Dinix and Carlomaker for permision to include their files.

Again i urge users who want to try this addon to make a clean rFactor lite install in preperation for its release to see if they like it before applying it to their main install.

README
Animated Helmetcam+animated views by Bruce Leeroy.

[Installation]

Best installed to a fresh clean install of rFactor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for users "without" TVStyle installed just extract to your rFactor folder.

for users "with" TVStyle installed just extract to desktop and copy the custom plugin folders "Bruce Fullscreen"-"Bruce Helmet" from inside the "Plugins/TVStyle" folder to your own TVStyle folder.

this is prepared for MMGF12007SE if you want other mods to use it then you need to select it using the TVSTYLECONFIG.exe or manually edit the MMGF12007SE.TV file and rename it to the mod's .rfm title


[Useage]

alt-a / alt-n / alt-f =Try these shortcuts they will enable/disable other views.
cntrl-f to stop some flashing!!!

If you selected the correct resolution just run the game.

to make use of the TVSTYLECONFIG.exe so as to allow a GUI that will allow you to make this addon available in all mods you will need to install Microsoft Netframework2.0 , however there are ways to manually
set styles-mods by editing the MMGF12007SE.tv file so you can allow other mods to use the custom views *(Instructions-readme inside the TVSTYLE folder)*.




[Precautions]

if you have Wombats Nvidia FPS fix .dll then it will be overwritten with this instalation - make a clean install or copy your current install and test this addon.

if you have Italian TVStyle display installed already this may corrupt it - make a clean install or copy your current install and test this addon.

if you have ENBSeries HDR - make a clean install or copy your current install and test this addon.

if you dont like your install to be corrupted - make a clean install or copy your current install and test this addon.

this is optimised and preset to run MMGF12007SE but it can be run on any mod that TVStyle will run on.
every care has been taken to protect your current installations and basic testing by me has been positive with no corruption issues but best be safe.!!!!!!!!!!!!!MAKE A CLEAN INSTALL!!!!!!

the animations are very basic and limited to what can be done i'm not an experienced painter and i'm sure somone else can improve on what i've done....



[Adding other custom styles-views]

extract the "Extra-Overlays WetnSolar.rar" to desktop or other location then open the containing folders and view the jpeg to get a basic idea of the effect , then right click the "Speed.tga" file and select
"copy", open for example "Plugins/TVSTYLE/Bruce-Helmet" and copy the "Speed.tga" file (backup the default Speed.tga if you want to keep it).

Any other custom TVStyle should work with this addon you can download them from http://www.racingontheweb.net, some very talented people there.

the above are not affiliated to this project but their work/time/effort/skill has gone into the making of the default files i needed... i just manipulated a very small part :P


Bruce's Animated beta testers where.. "Si"(Art-Tech-UK) - JloO - SteveO - German , all worked very hard 10/10 guys :) so dont blame me blame them :O

The fix for wombats .dll would need extracting to the root of rfactor and allowed to overwrite the existing .dlls from Animated helmet cam and any other TVStyle.dll or HDR.dll

Try all this on a custom install of rfactor!!!!!!!!!!
