...Don't forget the cup holder(s), agreed for some GPS (no more chances to get lost on a track), and disco ball at ceiling...
...Sorry it's sunday and I maybe drank too much red tea...

Quote from 'GreyBull [CHA :The "sometimes, racing setups need passengers to help cornering" argument is nonsence.

Think again: "the sometimes loads of passagers gives better traction & weight balance."

Like this:



...ehm ? well..you're right, it's non-sense....

Quote from TFalke55 : Consoles (for what reason, I don't know) seem not to be able to deliver a good driving physic..

As a lot of people can tell, it's because of sales rate.

It used to be shift light (or as .ini say "Shiftlight"), since a recent patch it light when you press shift key (?!) .

...about the dll, I gave it some tries, and failed miserably.
Anyway, a friend of mine is trying to make something that could replace what we use now.
Can't say much since it still hazardous as he could fail also or give up.

Kangaroos' land* hides some really strange living forms... (overripe kiwi?).

Best idea in summer time when it's hot as hell (afternoon), wear this:




@Klutch: don't get it too serious, you just have an unusual look...

...It's simple, unlike fuel you can't use 256 px for turbo needle/gauge (!) or it would look messed up.
128 only due to addon's boundaries, or add the turbo face to "backround" to use as it is.
If you need hand for gauge faces, just ask.
ps: just noticed that needles aren't well centered...

As stated years before, it would be great if someone had enough knowledge to "update" this .dll... after a few tries, I manage to fail miserably on that part.

Quote from aerolive :Not 100% perfect [...] Hope you enjoy my "first built from nothing" work.

Now, that's some nice work !
Only a question, why making the turbo gauge that way (guess you made it mainly for XRG anyway)?
Btw, fuel needle is a bit on left, as seen on screenshot.
I hope this one didn't get you mad .

Quote from Kova. : [... ]the parking led should be more red light.

And, by the way, when do you think you will release it?

Tbh, since the E-brake led isn't working anyway (as most of led/warnings in the game:shrug, I thought it may look less dumb having it OFF.

About release... I must say nothing went right in time or as it should since past few weeks.

I can't give a dead-line anyway...I would certainly fail to be right in time (heat weather coming back = can't use comp' for too long).

Quote from BoyGTA :...these are clio william's gauges
What happened with Clio Sport gauges?

..William's are planned, & also some other models.

About the Clio (mk2) RS, after several disappointments I gave up with it a long time ago (also due to diff. reasons).
Actually, I m trying to redo them from scratch. Can't tell more yet (at least I can say they're going slow) .

Quote from Hnk! :which more is to come?

I would like to tell, but as time goes by, things become less simple (to be honest I managed to get lost too often).
'Still struggling with a bunch of sets (fixing)... many versions = many problems .

Don't worry, the planned sets aren't delayed but as usual, "I can not do that in time"...

...Clio mk1 serie is coming soon (here's XFG layout, expect some changes in a close future):


ps: you can notice the police is kinda wrong, if someone think he got a better one, I would be glad to get help there...

Could someone tell me why there is no "D.I.L.L.I.G.A.F." choice in this poll please?...

On a serious tone:

As any smart*ss (like me for ex.) would state, there would surely be more important things to get than night conditions. Well, at least on a close range.

...Impreza & Twingo sets are way longer to sort out, my biggest problem is to avoid to get lost when packing sets (which happened a lot)...

So...I guess there are just a few days until it's done.

Anyway, here's a quick new one that I wanted to do since a while:

Honda Beat stock gauges set.

As the other ones, various version will come .

ps: Also for those who use imperial units, expect some mph speedos.

All tools used (as the readme say also):
Photoshop
Calculator (used to use the window's one, now it's ubuntu's, it's almost the same)...
Notepad (Gedit now).
edit: Forgot a big one: the coffee maker (never underestimate how it' may be useful).

I hope someone would help on this one, it's a quick job (looking for angle/pos. apart).
Anyway, as you noticed it's been a week since I post the shots from impreza, there are still some details which need some more work (it will be some kind of a big pack, big enough to get myself lost on my own hdd).
Since the Twingo's will come later than expected, there will be a "bonus" set.

to say it quick: ...It's close.

Looks like you would not make another one from photo now...
Very nice for a start !

Some news about the mk3 impreza's:
You can expect about ten variants, but 8000 rpm & 260 kph (160 mph) versions only...yet. & also bar or PSI scaled boost gauges....
The 9K rpm & various speedos will be released later.

Forgot the Twingo's, can't tell how much variants, but I'm confident for an average of ten... like impreza, only 8K tachometer, as they are planned soon after.

Quote from aerolive :Oh [...] its a very grueling work.[...]

It looks so, but it's not that hard... well tbh it's time consuming at 1st.
Quote from aerolive :Working with gauges from photo is much easier, but the result is not so smooth.

DIY (do it yourself) also allow to get the perfect angles, alignments & much more...

Quote from didou4413 :[...] Good and then if you made ​​or is to gauge the Clio RS ?

Since you're one of those who made a request a few years ago (shame on me), I guess you rewarded to get your answer 1st:
To be honest, sometimes things goes wrong...or not as good as expected*....
Most of the time, to get a decent "look", you have to look for the closest font which often ends as a compromise...(think about DIY fonts now)...

I won't lie, the gauges aren't close to release...yet . Back in time, although simple, they appeared to be a bit "tricky".
Since you still looking for them, I may give them a new try.

Quote :I'd like to make my own gauges, but I don't know how to do the scale.

I would be happy to tell you it's simple...as Naruto told (& maybe underwent ), my way often results in 100 layers.
"a picture speak better than words" look down, & sorry I guess that's not the answer you expected...

Mainly, patience is the key. PM me if you need more infos.

Quote :I also want to make a request.
Audi RS6 2008->

Dunno if I should take this one... as you can read I m not a "very fast" guy. Dunno if you have the patience...(j/k)

Quote : you would be able to use digital kph with analogl mph, not the opposite

Fixed.

Since I never tried digital mph, I though it was possible, sadly its not...
"Something, somewhere, went wrong..."

So, here is what this means (btw here's a variant: aluminium/chrome)

Quote from Graeme43 :I asked there and they said I should open paint and paste mph numbers over the KM ones lol

...ehmm, paint?(!)



Speedo has the same angle for mph/kph speedos, so you would be able to use digital kph with analog mph or mph(for Impreza's).

Quote from Graeme43 :....

...well, to be honest, that's not I hate imperial units, but as we use metric over here.
I'll make a try for next coming set(s).

Dunno if I would be mad enough to do both scales on same speedo anyway...

edit: ...just found a solution to get both units on same set, now it's a matter of small tweaking until release...

...Thanks a lot !

ps: reserved space for upcoming release(s).

I guess it's time to reveal next series as they're almost done:

-Impreza mk3 (GE/GH/GR)

-Twingo II RS (my avatar)



Both will be coming in various colors/schemes...
