    Hi All,

    Does anyone know, or remember how you change the objective timer (the loading bar for passengers) from the bar to the circle that was in TSW4.
    I timed alot of the door closings based on the position of the timer (as I am always late) and I'd love to change it now.

    Go to accessibility settings and switch the hud type to normal

    That was in TSW4, not working anymore. Barber pole has replaced the clock circle.

    Oh dear gods. That's a nightmare.

    I was avoiding installing TSW5 until at the very least the winter patch but now I probably won't bother until they restore the circular progress bar to the classic hud.

    Estimating an amount of time is just a thing that is easiest when visualised as a circle. It's the easiest way to conceptualise time. Circles within circles.

    First, I want to apologise. I am aware the image depicted can hurt your feelings.

    Unfortunately, it was me forgetting to add the disclaimer: THE IMAGE DEPICTED IS JUST FOR DEMONSTRATIONAL PURPOSES. IN NO WAY DOES IT REPRESENT MY OWN PREFERENCES.

    Sincerely,

    I'm having flashbacks to a few months ago when following an update to TSW4 every damn time I loaded the game it reset the HUD to that and I'd have to go and change it each time I fired it up. While I don't use a proper HUD I do think they got it right with the minimal one, it's great for being able to drive from outside and enjoy the view :) Pity they didn't make a better minimalistic HUD for TSC but let's not go there...

    Exactly as Matt said in the recent Roadmap. (1hr 22 mins into the roadmap video)

    Erm, Not according to Matt.

    I really do get the feeling that no one actually knows the answer. Or it works that way in Matt`s build, but not in the retail build.
    It really is a bit of a joke.

    Matt was wrong. See above image. Also that white diagonal line (since TSW2) got removed from the top left box of the Normal HUD.

    Matt was indeed mistaken this time. I always use the normal hud and it also has the barber pole. I don't think we'll ever see the circle again. I also prefer the circle, as it was more clear, but it not such a big deal if you ask me.

    And that's fine, I was just repeating what was said.
    The point being, if Matt does not know what's in the game or how it works, what chance does everyone else have ??

    DTG Matt
    Can you confirm if this is correct?

    Matt is not here, he's having a deserved rest, everyone can confirm for themselves I guess? Besides, it's been reported in the TSW5 feedback thread already.

    I think he's sleeping off a weekend of charity streaming.
