Disable suggested gear

[Jamie Bbbbb]

Has anyone been able to turn this off? I can't believe they would have forgotten to include the option.

Only way I have found to do it is to set the display to race info only or off.

Heh, well that isn't any kind of a solution. Man, I hope they patch this. It's a bit silly that you could disable it in Sport but can't now.

Could you?

Oh...a Google search seemingly tells me not...I must be tripping

You're probably thinking of the BRAKE flashing. You can remove that, not the gear suggestion flashing.

Sorry, what do you mean by the brake flashing?

The assist that flashes up in red 'BRAKE' on the HUD. You can turn that off.

Ohhh yeah...you might be right. That thing was hilarious.

Old reply but the worst thing about the gear indicator is that it's not even accurate 95% of the time, not to mention distracting.

I’ve a feeling that changing the World Circuits race difficulty to hard in Options turns this feature off. I’m unsure it turns it off in Sport mode though.

Untrue, I've played on Hard the entire time.

Double layered square of 3m light adhesion painters tape takes care of it.😏

Whaaaaat?!

I want to remove suggested gear, and the no entry sign, when driving wrong way. 🚫🚫 I want to record game play to use it as a video on "how to trail brake". GT have parameters on pedals And i don't want to have suggested gear. If I remove everything, I don't have my parameters for peals No news about it in the future?

Best regards

Suggested gear has been a thing since GT3, and has never been individually disable-able.

Having started my GT journey with GT Sport I had originally thought that the inability to disable the recommended gear indicator (and by extension, the flashing ”BRAKE” signal, which flashes said recommended gear indicator) was down to GT Sport being hastily coded to get out the door. Hearing that this function has existed since GT3 certainly paints a grim picture for any expectation that this could ever be disabled on its own…

You can disable it in GT4.

I stand corrected. I admittedly haven't popped in GT4 for several years now, and I never really tried to disable it.

Obviously this is now possible following the latest update by turning off driver info in display settings but the downside is you lose the entire hud. Driving in cockpit view restores some gauges obviously depending on which car you are driving.

It seems like even after the game has been out for a year.... Polyphony either doesn't recognize this issue or they feel its normal.

You can disable it in GT4.

You could disable it in GT6/5 as well from what I remember.

Yep! https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/disable-flashing-gear-change-indicator-success.200513/
