Tracks Feldbergring 1.4

[Richard Dastardly]

Heh, that looks like the surface is just rolled gravel - lots of roads down my way were loose surface until pretty recently. That'd be quite exciting to race on...

@Fat-Alfie I know you said you would look into night lights at some point but I was wondering if you know what is currently possible. I have the latest version of the lights patch and Feldbergring now has lights dotted around the circuit (see video below) but a lot of them don't make much sense, there are randomly illuminated signs and stuff. I would love to see things like the odd lit up window and flickering campfires and balloons, do you know if this is possible at the moment (I know backfire light is in) or do I need to harass x4fab for fire light?

I think the Nazi UFO would benefit from some flashing lights as well @Fat-Alfie. At the moment it's VERY hard to see.

That is strange. I also have the latest version of the Shaders Light Patch (v0.1.23-preview32) and Feldbergring is completely without lights for me
Tried with TK's Mid Clear Night weather setting... Are you using something else maybe ?

You need a config for the track to show light on it. Many configs are available at the discord channel:

I do plan to add appropriate lights to both Feldbergring and Thomson Road (and my other tracks when they are completed) but I won't be working on it until the lighting mod is finalised. I don't want to be re-releasing stuff every week, trying to keep up with light-mod developments.

Yes, I think you mentioned the same before. Im not trying to give you the hurry up I just wondered if you had any insight into what is possible e.g lit windows and flickering fires. I guess this is something that needs to happen lights patch mod end rather than something you can do so the answer is probably harass x4fab.

@Fanapryde I did install a lights config for Feldbergring but removed it so I assumed the lights I have now are standard for SLP but maybe not. I wouldn't recommend them anyway ATM.

In AC universe all balloons fly after sunset!

I don't understand

Just joking mate. But maybe it will be possible to light up the ballons also in the night.

Yes, it is

 

[Andy-R]

Yes, it is

Can they flicker with light at the moment or just constant glow?

 

[Mascot]

Yes, it is

Very cool. Is it possible to have that flickering varying intensity glow that hot air balloons have when the burner is deployed? Maybe brighter at the base too?
Edit: beaten like a ginger stepchild.

 

[Blamer]

Right now is a material adjustment, just like windows, so it's a constant glow

 

[Blamer]

Also, they're one single object, so in order to have let's say a brighter base, there have to be a material replacement splitting the original object in different objects/materials.

EDIT: sorry @Fat-Alfie for OT

Thats right. But when something happens in my thread, i wouldn't say anything,
out of courtesy. And then i'm glad someone else is doing it....
