I like how single player is all clean looking.

but once I hop on multiplayer....
All these screen blocking distractions come up.

I know it's a minor complaint and it's the server host's decision, but is there anyway to disable all this stuff?
I'm already aware that some but not all things can be disabled with F7.

The key "*" should help you out ;)

Thanks but I was looking to disable everything but the default UI.

Hi :)

There are controllers that allow you to remove their UI but keep the official UI. Something like the F7 button. I don't remember which button is and it's different between all the existing controllers :s

Try F7 ;)

The problem is, that the usage of F7 (for example in the aseco controllers) is usually disabled when the player count on the server reaches a certain limit (e.g. 25).
Other controllers that allow a clean driving experience (such as expansion) are normally not seen on well populated servers.
I would really wish for the possibility to use the normal offline GUI when driving and only display of the "server controller gui", when you press a specific button.

Suggestion: press "*" once: standard gui (like single player)
press it again: no gui at all
again: server gui

(just like ghost cars: visible, ghosts, disabled)
