How to display the Speedometer and Tacho2?
The speedometer and Tacho2 appa aren't displaying in the hud and I'm assuming I've toggled them off somehow, but I can't find out how to re-enable them. Is there a keyboad command for this or is something else going on? The apps appear to be loaded.

There was another user having the same issue

Can you check in Documents/mods if the game is saving some .SVG files in there?

If yes, can you check if the game has any 'launch commands'
(Right-Click BeamNG.Drive in the Steam Library, go to 'Properties', then 'Launch Options')
The launch options should be empty.


Eventually, try to clean reinstall the game.
Here's how to do it correctly:
-Unistall BeamNG from Steam
-Delete BeamNG.Drive folder from MyDocuments (backup your mods if you want, but don't put them back yet!)
-Delete BeamnG.Drive folder from Steam/Steamapp/common (If there is still a folder)
-Reinstall BeamNG.


If that is still happening, your antivirus may be causing that (or some other software that is trying to hook on the game) You need to find which.

The Documents/mods folder had the following files:

db.json
forcedinduction.svg
simple-speedo.svg
tacho.svg

Deleting those files didn't do anything so I did a full uninstall/reinstall including manually deleting any Beamng.drive files in the "My Documents" folder and in "Progam Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common". Still no luck, the tacho2 isn't displaying.

I'll experiment to see if any programs I'm running are causing the problem.

Edit: Not working in safe mode either.

This is a very (like, very very) rare case, and we had only 2 reports (including yours) about it.
It's 95% caused by some external program outside BeamNG.Drive, that is trying to hook in the game more likely.
It's not easy to find out which program would be causing this, as it won't result in any log or anything..

Yes it seems to be a software conflict problem of some sort. I've actually got this problem on two computers and both have similar software and hardware setups. I think I've narrowed down the cause to a few possibilities but am not 100% sure what it is yet. I'll post it if I find out.

Completely uninstalling MacAfee anti virus, disabling Windows Defender and removing a load of other software didn't solve the problem. I don't have this problem with my Windows 8.1 laptop.

If you manage to find which program is causing that, it would help a lot.
It's probably some software that tries to filter browser data (Our UI is seen as a Browser sometimes, just that all the content it load is from your hard-disk)

Found it! :steamhappy:

It was clashing with Adobe SVG Viewer v1.0. This version of Adobe SVG Viewer was packaged up with Adobe Photoshop 6.0.1 which I am still using.

There is a later version of Adobe SVG viewer (3.03) that doesn't seem to conflict with this game.

Conflicting software: Adobe SVG Viewer 1.0
OS: Windows 10 Home & Pro 64bit, Windows 8.1

Uninstalling SVG Viewer 1.0 fixed the hud problems. Ty for the tips on what was causing the problem.

Thank you a lot for letting us know, it will definitively help us to track down the issue! :)
