Add random sound waves in from TV commentators, Dosent really matter what commentators you use because once the basics are there, other people can make there own soundpacks from each countrys tv to overwrite certain files

Qualifying: Tells you if your current time is good enough to get through to the next stage of qualiflying. The way you control this is via the config. You define how your qualiflying works and this can program a keyboard command. So if you set "Key W" in the config to 16. It will tell you if your time is good enough to get into the top 16. If you set "Key E" in the config to 10. It will tell you if your time is good enough tog et into the top 10. So that when your ingame it will allow a dynamic way of controlling the qualiflying procedure. Could be quite complicated but could work out great. Would help even more if you could display the number at the corner of the screen... so that you can make sure the buttons work. ----------- Another feature. Would be if you get pole it tells you how much by.. So you cross the line. Receive p1... spotter says "Good good you go the pole. Your time was 0.030 faster than Driver X" Or if you get a certain position in the grid it will tell you how much you have to find to get another position. And even further tell you how much you have to get into the qualiflying when you start your lap. "You need something special mate... You need a 1min 19.128 in order to qualify" And Id like to vote for the numerous variations of a statement can be made

An ideea, dunno if it was said before, but is something like this
1. Like when you have low fuel, for 5-6 laps, before the pitstop, the spotter to tell you "you gotta push hard for the pit stop, push hard now"
2. If you are in top 3 or close to the lead, it would be nice if the spotter tels you "alonso pited, hes on a 2 stop strategy, or he has fuel for another 10-12 laps" somethin like this
3. When the safety car comes out, a message like "Safety car is out, safety car is out, SC mode on, i repeat SC mode on, keep your tyres warm and watch the fuel"
4. At a point in the race, if you are in the lead, and have a 30sec lead or so and about 10 laps remaining, the spotter should tell you "you have a good lead, you can lay off the throttle for the last laps" or "you have a good lead, try remaining in the 1:18 time and lay off the throottle" or messages like that....
5.You should be warn when your team mate is pitting, and under safety car, if you have fuel for 5-6 laps, the spotter can tell you "you can pit now under safety car and save time", and the team mate pitting "watch out, your team mate "nico rosberg" is pitting this laps"....
6. Would be nice to have radio failures at a rate of 1out of 10 races or something like that, and the hear only blur on the radio....would be nice...not all race, only after half, or things like that
7. On the warm up lap....to say: radio check, and before you line up to say"you are on a good position (if top 10), you should score some points...be careful out there and bring some points to the team).....if top 3-5 (we expect you to win or to finish on a podium, watch out at the first corner, good luck mate)
A few sugestions....if you want more, i have loads

I don't know if it's the correct place to post suggestions about the TV Display. It's one of the best plugins for rFactor, but those are suggestions to make it almost perfect. BTW I haven't tested the 0.9 version because I went on holidays before the release, but I have installed it and I know the features because of the previews of the config. I don't know if this is possible, but the suggestions are there. This is a pic where are screenshots of the real F1: img386.imageshack.us/img386/7519/tvdispns5.jpgRefering to the pic: 1- In qualifying, when a driver improves the time, it is in green. 2- Flags of the drivers 3- In replays, the replay logo appears 4- In yellow flag, the lap counter turns yellow, and in Safety Car the SC appears. 5- Same for red flag, but because there isn't red flag in rFactor AFAIK, the lap counter should turn black when you are DQ 6- All the GForce bar is always in the same color, and it changes depending of the G Forces, and when athere's big amount of G, where is the G Force Number turns of the color of the G Force Bar 7- The G Point also changes depending of the G Forces 8- In the classic style, there's the car number and the tire brand, and the tire brand also was in 2006. 9- Safety Car logo for the clasic 10- Flags in the 2004/2005 style. More suggestions: Correct driver abreviations (DLR instead of DE , MSC instead of SCH, etc). Make them customizable in the config. Animations. Hope you try to make something of this, your plugin is awesome but with that would be perfect GGSF1

For the spotter plugin, I think a TV commentator would be nice, kind of like the one in F1 Championship Edition. Not your engineer talking, but you-know, TV host, that talks about who got a good start and stuff.
