Beta HiStakes

HiStakes, a self-contained SDF/CEF hybrid gauges and MFD system for BeamNG. Build one gauge, a complete cluster, or a standalone vehicle display.​ Key Features: Solo Gauges: One deeply configurable gauge. Add several instances to build a dashboard around the information you care about. Supports RPM, speed, boost, power, torque, temperatures, and more with configurable sweeps and start angles and presentation modes. Integrated Combo HUD: Combines gauges with drivetrain controls, speed limit display, police pursuit support, a warning strip, and a multi-function display (MFD) and many more! HiStakes MFD: The same multi-function display placeable as a standalone app without the surrounding cluster. Standalone MFD: Square Mini MFD(Optional Companion mode). Companion mode is automatically triggered when using LCD Strip MFD(in combo or standalone); in this mode, the MFD Chromes are hidden, as it is already shown in the MFD Strip MFD Apps included in Beta: Vehicle-health dashboard, bCDDL-1.1 compliant fork of vanilla Navigation app adapted for my MFD framework, a proximity radar that renders vehicles as OOBB rectangles(with reversing mode and hitch support), and a drag timer app (more to come). Including sound/chime support for warnings/shift hint/speed limit. Flight Mode: Provides a suite of high-fidelity glass-cockpit features which include Primary Flight Display, terrain-aware Navigation Display, and capability-adaptive engine monitoring. (including support for aviator331's Aircraft Autopilot mod To access Flight Mode - In the MFD, press the Home button and you'll see the Flight app, you may need to also scroll down to see it (You will need either a Standalone MFD or a Combo layout with an MFD) Per-widget/Global Settings: Per-widget settings can be reached by hovering above the place widget and clicking on the Gear/Cog icon that pops up - this will open up the settings for the specific widget. Global Settings can be reached via the Pause menu, the tab on the top bar under 'Mods' category. LLMs/AI Use disclosure: Generative Agentic Coding tools were used in debugging, optimization, and translation process of this project. KNOWN ISSUES • Unfinished level of work quality: Many apps and widgets are still in their early phase and may contain placeholders; this also includes the settings interface (placement/flow/UX), which may appear clunky and hard to use. These do not represent final quality. Please bear with me as I develop it; your feedback will be valuable in helping improve and shape the mod! • New-widget settings persistence: The first configuration applied to a newly placed widget may be lost after opening and closing the pause menu. A replacement widget can also inherit settings from a previously deleted widget. Workaround: After placing a widget, configure it, perform one pause-menu round trip, and verify or reapply its settings before making further layout changes.(I recommend making changes to one gauge at a time and toggling open the Radial meu/Pause menu in between to ensure the settings get written) • Repeated flight callouts: An aural flight warning can occasionally repeat immediately instead of respecting the expected repeat interval. Workaround: Individual GPWS warning families can be disabled from the global settings card. • Flight-mode settings access: The Combo settings button is unavailable while Flight mode is active. Workaround: Switch to another MFD page before opening widget settings. • Vehicle switching in Flight: Alert or capability state from the previous vehicle can briefly survive a vehicle switch. Workaround: Leave the Flight page before switching vehicles, or leave and re-enter it afterward. • Vehicle Health compatibility: Brake-fade highlighting assumes conventional FL, FR, RL, and RR wheel names. Per-wheel highlighting may be absent on vehicles with nonstandard wheel naming or additional axles. • Damage classification: Some detached-wheel or radiator damage can be presented as an overheating warning because of limitations in the available game telemetry. • UI loading artifacts; Native-rendered gauges or MFD surfaces may appear briefly while BeamNG’s UI is loading. They can also remain visible momentarily after an F5 UI reload. • Font coverage: Navigation and Radar use BeamNG’s native ImGui font and do not currently follow the selected HiStakes UI font. • Minor zoomed-gauge overlap: At some sizes and zoom levels, the gauge face can overlap the frame by a small amount. This is cosmetic. Please use the Discussion tab for bug reports/support/suggestions. Thank you!​
