How it works

This is not a mod.
WTRTI does not make any changes to the game process or its data, it 'only' takes data from localhost:8111(web-map) and displays it on a screen (Overlay).

Installation

  1. Download the latest version.
  2. Extract it to a separate folder with write permissions.
    Since the program works in portable mode, all files (logs, profiles, etc.) that the program dumps or uses, will be located in the same folder as the executable file.

    Note: Make sure it is not in the game root directory, otherwise the game launcher will delete the WTRTI executable.

  3. Start WTRTI.
  4. Add some indicators to the list (+ button).
  5. Start the game and switch to the "Fullscreen Window" mode in the Graphics settings.

    Note: If the overlay freezes/stutters, try disabling the "Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling" (HAGS). How-to

  6. Go to "Test Flight".

Tip

To move or separate indicators, use Groups.

Upgrade from old versions

Simply extract the downloaded zip file into the folder where the old version is located.
