    Pop-up overlay blocking pitch meter

    I pitch with the analog meter and I have it situated above the catcher while pitching from the pitchers view.

    Now sometimes during a stat overlay it blocks the top half of the meter throwing my timing totally off.
    Anyone else experiencing this?

    Yes, gets very annoying after a while... sometimes I feel like its trolling me, popping up with a tense situation and lingering for way too long.

      Are you aware of the fact that you can move and resize the meter using the custom cam?

        Yes but I've had the meter there since analog pitching was introduced. Not gonna change the familiar location because they changed the place/size of the overlay.

          and that can be done with Broadcast Pitching View?

              Actually, unfortunately, no you can't. Broadcast is a special camera, and the only camera that cannot be used with customized pitch meters.

              You can go in and pick ONE of the individual broadcast presets, for ONE individual stadium. It will no longer change automatically though, you are literally sticking to that one angle for as long as you use the camera.

              So I empathize with you, OP. I was going to take a screenshot and submit a feedback in that bug report link (since it's for feedback and complaints also I think?).

              But there isn't really a solution other than just to wait for the pop-up to disappear, or use a different camera.

                I use Broadcast and analog pitching and have never once had the overlay come even close to blocking my meter... Does it happen in other ballparks?

                  As a work around you could use two different custom cams. Have one set up for your home ballpark and use another to change from one park to the next. The player would just have to remember to change it with every series/roadtrip.

                    You can also wait a few seconds and the overlay will disappear. It's slightly less annoying that way

                      But using custom cam means you have to constantly change it for each game you play(cause if one game you play in Toronto, and next game you play in Boston, their broadcast cams are diff views), cause custom cam is the same fixed camera view every single game, regardless of the stadium you play in.

                        Yes, that's what I do, find the preset for the stadium I play in and reposition the meter, it takes few seconds and doesn't bother me at all.
