2010 Timing Overlays [WIP]

Hey!

I've been working on a simple 2010 style timing overlay mainly because it shortens the wait for F1 2010 :P
It also includes a position overlay, which is red when you are first. The timing show the sector times, with there differences to the lap you are currently driving.
I included a LG logo just for fun.

At the moment im thinking of adding fuel and temperature overlays too.
Found out that it's really nice to drive in combination with a pitboard overlay, so i won't be making Gap time overlays.
I'm still not sure about the position of the overlay though...

Due to some restrictions of GPxPatch it's not possible to change the colours of the overlays.
You can change the font colours, but IMO thats not really nice looking. I also reworked the font style and created a '2010' font. It still has the same letter symbols as Lo2K made with the 2004digital font, but reworked number symbols.
I still need to ask permission for that too, so if you read this Lo2K, please let me know :P
So here are some WIP screenshots hope you guys like it!
By the way, the screenshots are widescreen, the overlay looks better in normal resolution, like most overlays do. But I think they arent really that stretched and they still look okay.





UPDATE: This one is with driver names. Able by using variables in CSM, so people who don't use CSM can't use this... Sorry folks.
Please keep in mind that only the driver you have chosen will be displayed! So if you change views it will still say S VETTEL, when you've chosen Vettel in the CSM option menu, even though you're viewing another driver.



So let me know what you think and any feedback on the positioning of the overlay, colours, etc etc... will be much appreciated!

Like mentioned below, I totally forgot about this project and decided to release it still in WIP conditions. It's a real simple infopanel in the 2010 tv style.

Nice work

It looks nice so far.
I don't mind for the font but it might be better to rename yours like "2004digital2" or whatever to avoid confusion for those who want to keep original digital font for the other panels.

please make it for non-csm.
Why restrict it?

Could you make the positions screens too? That one on down side of the screen?

Thanks @Lo2k, the font will be called digital2010 (original name giving pt. 1...)
@MARSALA, i won't include the name banner because it takes too much coding in CSM, so a non-csm version is the only option. (but it is possible though, for the interested people)
@KerleyF1: This isnt like the overlay you see on tv, its just a graphic identical overlay, which displays both time and position. Dont get me wrong, i would if i could, but GPxPatch doenst allow that kinda detail modding...

Waiting for your news ...
Hello, hello!!!

Very Nice. I am wait for the release.

Sorry guys, I totally forgot about this because of the F1 2010 game... I'm not that active anymore on this forum, I apologize.
So I'm going to release this stuff, feel free to edit it, you have all permission!
Don't expect a superb panel though... It's just a simple timing panel in the 2010 tv style.
If the download link is broken feel free to upload yourself and share with the community.
