Usage

Before getting started, please ensure you have read the Installation and Configuration guides. We've kept them as brief as possible while covering essential details—going through them carefully will save you time.

🥽 Using RacelabVR

▶️⏹ Start / Stop

To use RacelabVR, start both Racelab and your game. Once in-game, press your Toggle VR keybinding to start or stop VR mode. RacelabVR automatically detects whether you're using OpenXR, OpenVR, or SteamVR.

Alternatively, you can start or stop RacelabVR directly from the Racelab footer:

⚡ Show / Hide Overlays

To quickly hide all overlays, use the key binding Show/Hide Overlays and Layouts. This provides a fast toggle by making the overlays invisible without actually removing them—they remain in place, ready to be shown again instantly.

🎯 Positioning Overlays

You can adjust overlay positions in-game using the following key bindings. When you enter edit mode, a helper overlay will appear, explaining how to move overlays with your mouse.

Re-Center Before Making Adjustments

Always re-center before making any adjustments!

In edit mode, RacelabVR takes control of your mouse and some keyboard inputs. If you ever lose control or get stuck, press ESC five times to immediately stop RacelabVR and release all keyboard and mouse hooks.
