iRacing Beta UI
3D Car Viewer
This new feature includes a 3D car viewer tab on some of the screens in the iRacing beta UI. When you click on the tab opens a new window where you can view a 3D model of the car that is rendered in real time, just as though you are viewing the vehicle in the simulator. You can rotate and zoom using click and drag and the mouse wheel.
You can view all liveries in the 3D car viewer including those custom liveries you have saved on your computer. Painters will not have to load the simulator to view their updates.
