You mean glow gauges for LX's?...

EK9-type for LX4-LX6, usual white & glow...

No screenshots yet, sorry.

Btw, here is an udpate of uf1 gauges set... (the previous had some issues) with 1 more variant (orange 70-80s).

Quote from Dark Elite :

...I was surprised and a little impressed that the car didn't stall, but in fact moved forward quite easily in sixth gear from standstill. Good luck doing that in LFS..

A good friend of mine managed to start his dad Golf mk2 GTI (1800-16v) in 5th, from a standstill... the car was an '86, & it torque band starts @ 4600 rpm ...

Oh yea... it gearbox died 4yrs ago (as the clutch)....

Quote from obsolum :

The MRT

Right... but 3 years ago, (old-time S1).

Here's the trick:

In gauges.ini, look for [GEAR] section, at the bottom, set direction=2.
Look for [FONTGEAR] section now, or if there's none, paste this in your .ini & adjust the values to suit your gauges:

You have all you need (ok... except fuel) already.

You may have a look at the attachement.

(All credits goes to the soft maker).

I only work from scratch now...but if you still need help, tell me.

is the ferrari one gears supposed to go 2 then 1 then R then N

eh?... what you mean?

You welcome...

...except for hardware purpose... (mouse,kb,... etc)

Quote from xaotik :

Read the instructions on the very first post [...]

Target in shortcut is not really required... (never had to make this myself).

Let's do it in 3 steps:

-Make sure to have the files (.tga + .ini) in the right folder.
ex: ...\Liveforspeed\Gauges\GaugesXFG .

-Modify these lines at the top end of your cfg.txt in LFS root folder.

Quote :

OutGauge Mode 2
OutGauge Delay 1
OutGauge IP 127.0.0.1
OutGauge Port 30000
OutGauge ID 0

-Place the d3d8.dll* file in your LFS root folder.

Now if you follow these 3 steps, I don't know how it won't work...

*The one for version 1.0 (400kb)... it is provided in almost all my gauges...

There's 2 threads about analog gauges (1.0 / alpha)... it could be confusing...
Most of the content uploaded here are 1.0 friendly.

Oh, my carbon dash cluster ... ...

Nice exhaust

Hi...

A last throw of ek9-like,
First, FXO gauges 2 variants ("cobalt" & white)...
+ UF1* & XFG.
Also, some various turbo gauges (small pre-release pack).
Have a look to the readme to know how to use them.

Comments would be welcome.

More to come.

all my gauges works with 1.0.

*updated UF1 version is available Here

Look like you use some pre-Z dds...

If you talk about the in-game gauge in chase view, it seems to be permanent.
To disable/enable ana-gauges one just press del key (you may to insist).

Multiple scale would help a lot to make more difference in the "steps" (would be great for the other gauges also)... but since Redrum stop supporting this addon, we just can wait until someone else take up the developement... or leave with it as it is ...

A funny fact on turbo gauges btw, everytime I make it bigger than 128x128, the needle f*** up ... (using any of the remaining layers won't do the trick, needle can't be larger than 128x128 for turbo only....).

If you refer to the message about AI fuel's load on a start...
Ai drive like ai, which means they push a car to a certain limit...(auto-gears come in mind mainly).

OT:

Quote :

Just look at AIs at put their "consumation"

Et que vive le franglais ... Fuel efficiency, consumption would fit better I guess.

Do 1% fuel more/less give a huge difference in car's load?
The answer come itself... F12 menu do a better job after some laps (like /w fuel).

There's more important things to correct anyway.

Remind me an old vid' about cpu's

Raise the sound volume down, music is crap.

With FZR ALL the fuel estimations are too big

As it says, this is not an exact value....

Quote from BoyGTA :

btw, could you do some for uf1?

Any suggestions are welcome, I got an idea for the car, but I didn't get very far with it...(ek9-type again)

Quote from mcintyrej :

...

Euh?...

Quote :

BUT, I can see boost gauge, engine temperature and clock very well

I had a 2nd look at the shot...& it remind me when I tried to mess with the alpha layer...

Did you changed something in XRdialsALP24.dds...?

Quote from [RF]-art555 :

... It takes quite a lot of practice to learn to time all the actions well.

Just keep in minds that the most of us has a plastic bit under the feet...
Let's just say it :
Heavy foot = hardware problem soon ...
(this apply to a button also)...

Seems like this is not possible yet... period...

Piggy: multiple scaled gauges don't work fine with analog gauges (ex: your tacho).

it need a fuel gauge at least (& why not gears n°), you can work on the alpha channel to give it some transparency...

This kind of gauges for racer is a good base.

By the way, here is one more EK9-like, a try with "cobalt-look".
Don't worry, different look will come soon, there is a bunch more of work needed for some of my next series...

Attachements removed for now, some improvements in the work.
Back soon, apologies.

Wastegates generally do not provide accurate boost control when using just the spring.

It do the job for reasonably boosted engine (like most regular road cars).
