New warning light model.

[DeputyLOL]

I love the current model you have for the indicators, but do you think you could make one without the boarder. The boarder covers up some of my texture.

Its basically a rectangle with a texture on the front. If possible can you keep the Icon texture format the same so I can copy all the existing textures over to the new one.

[Alexustas]

So, you need two textures:

• coloured
• greyscaled (just desaturate and reduce brighness of colored texture)

[Alexustas]

Do not change the names of the textures

[Alexustas]

and you need to edit an old configs :(

1. find and replace the name of animation. Old:

   animationName = TabloIndicatorAnim

New:

     animationName = WL_ONanim

[DeputyLOL]

thank you, ill start testing

[Alexustas]

2 add a second 'JSIPropTextureShift' module for "OFF" mesh, just copy-paste the existing module and change 'transformToShift' name to ''TabloPlateOFF".

NOTE. the value of X and Y in both modules must be the SAME

[Alexustas]

3

this is Grid tamplate for labels

[Alexustas]

and last one.

the box (or case, or body) mesh of indicator uses a very small piece of "grayLabels" texture

small white rectangle

please, keep this place black or dark-gray

[Alexustas]

one more thing :)

animation made from "OFF" to "ON", so you may be need to remove "reverse = true" line from some configs

[DeputyLOL]

ok thanks for the help, I'm adding a few basic indicators back in. I'll let you know if they work.

[DeputyLOL]

works perfectly! mission accomplished.

[DeputyLOL]

wow, hit the wrong button. Didn't even know I could close issues! Do you want this closed now? Because everything works for me

[Alexustas]

Yes, Closed! :-)

[DeputyLOL]

On to the next request! :)

[DeputyLOL]

I think i found a bug with the warning lights. If you have a looping sound, it will stop looping if you exit and re-enter IVA.

[DeputyLOL]

wait. sorry I'm confused. One of my lights stops looping when i exit. the rest don't.

[DeputyLOL]

I found the issue. If a light has a looping sound and no flashing delay, it will stop when you leave IVA. If it has a flashing delay, it will turn on again when it changes its state.

[Alexustas]

i suppose, you need to discuss it with MOARdv

[DeputyLOL]

it doesn't happen with the old lights

[Alexustas]

give me your cfg, I will try to reproduce the problem

[Alexustas]

and describe how the indicator should work

[DeputyLOL]

MODULE 
{
    name = JSIVariableAnimator      
    refreshRate = 3
    animationName = WL_ONanim
    variableName = CUSTOM_TOOLOWTERRAINALERT
    scale = 0,1
    threshold = 0.5,1.5
    alarmSound = AdvancedCockpit/Sounds/gpws/TooLowTerrain
    alarmSoundVolume = 5
    alarmSoundLooping = true
}

[DeputyLOL]

I gave you part of it otherwise it would just be confusing. The alarm turns on when the radar altimeter is decreasing and you are below 1000 feet. Gear not down flaps up.

The alarm will play and loop and the light will illuminate but when you exit from IVA and then go back, the sound stops even though the light stays on.

[Alexustas]

OK. I'll see what I can do

[Alexustas]

config for old-style light is the same? difference in the name of animation only ?

[DeputyLOL]

Yup

I'm going to be without wifi for a week. I may be able to talk to you at some point but until then I'm putting this on hold until I get back

[DeputyLOL]

Just a small comment about the lights, I hadn't noticed until now. It is impossible to click on the korpus collider as it is inside the lamp.

[Alexustas]

Now I am engaged in converting my Parts (ALCOR, ERS...). it will take some time, then I'll deal with Props

[DeputyLOL]

Don't worry about this. Its magically fixed itself.
