There you go guys. Hope you're gonna like it. Not easy to do and some weird stuff with animations, like i couldn't find how to make the wings unfolded for a certian time. Anyways, enjoy!

Preciate the file. I was the one who asked you about the animations on your YT vid.:thumbup:

Oh :)

Updated it as 1.1 on Juine 7:

 

 

Was finaly able to get rid of the remaining Digits showing up, no more bug « 0 », someone was finaly able to point me the proper Argument # which was wrong in the PDF Argument list i had.

I can't figure out how to set a livery. Anyone knows how?

[SkateZilla]

I'm working on a HUGE VR Scene,

 

Just a heads up, it will have proper syntax for Liveries in it.

 

Otherwise, the instructions from the template are:

 

local setLivery = function(self, livery , livery_folder)
return ED_demosceneAPI.setLivery(self.obj, livery , livery_folder)
end

Will try this, if it works, i owe you a beer keg :P

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Well, no Joy, i can't figure out how to use it. :(

Edited June 9, 2018 by Doum76

[pimp]

Yeah, SkateZilla, you might have to provide us with an example with actual values, please. If you don't mind. I'm not sure how the syntax should go.

[SkateZilla]

Instructions:

local setLivery = function(self, livery , livery_folder)
return ED_demosceneAPI.setLivery(self.obj, livery , livery_folder)
end 

 

 

So:

scene.<variable>:setLivery(<LIVERY>,<LIVERY FOLDER>);

 

Now the Confusing part was the names in the demosceneEnvironment.lua

 

<variable> = The Scene Object (most people use scene.m.xxxxx)

<LIVERY> = The Livery Folder name

<LIVERY FOLDER> = The Aircraft Folder for the Livery. (which was mis-understood as being path to livery, when it's really the aircraft's livery folder name: (ie "FA-18C_hornet", "f-86f sabre" etc)

 

So Lets say you want to use VFC-12's Livery

 

LIVERY = "VFC-12"

LIVERY FOLDER = "FA-18C_hornet"

 

So it would be:

setLivery("VFC-12", "FA-18C_hornet");

 

Also works with 3rd Party Liveries.

I have this code below, but it didn't work. Do I also need the "local" variable code also? If so, where does it need to go?

 

scene.m3 = sceneAPI:addModel("f-18C", -6, 1.85, -2);

scene.m3:setLivery("Canada 425th Squadron", "FA-18C_hornet")

new Lot20 Model is "fa-18c", "f-18C" is the old model.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!!! :thumbup:

 

This just made my day soooo much... thank you :)

One thing though. The names your are using are very confusing. I think this would be much more understandable:

 

8<

 

So:

scene.<variable>:setLivery(<LIVERY FOLDER>, <MODEL NAME>);

 

Now the Confusing part was the names in the demosceneEnvironment.lua

 

<variable> = The Scene Object (most people use scene.m.xxxxx)

<LIVERY FOLDER> = The Livery Folder name

<MODEL NAME> = The Aircraft Folder for the Livery. (which was mis-understood as being path to livery, when it's really the aircraft's livery folder name: (ie "FA-18C_hornet", "f-86f sabre" etc)

 

So Lets say you want to use VFC-12's Livery

 

LIVERY FOLDER = "VFC-12"

MODEL NAME = "FA-18C_hornet"

 

So it would be:

setLivery("VFC-12", "FA-18C_hornet");

 

Also works with 3rd Party Liveries.

 

 

What do you think?

[SkateZilla]

FA-18C_hornet is the Livery Folder Name for the lot 20 Model.

[Captain Orso]

I'm not getting at the Lot20 livery, but this:

 

<LIVERY> = The Livery Folder name

<LIVERY FOLDER> = The Aircraft Folder for the Livery

 

This is confusing AF if you don't pay very close attention and look at the examples.

 

This is practically self-explanatory:

 

<LIVERY FOLDER> = The Livery Folder name

<MODEL NAME> = The Aircraft Folder for the Livery.

[SkateZilla]

Except it's not the model name.

 

It's the Aircraft's Livery Folder from Within the /Liveries/ Directory.

 

Look, I figured it out and posted how to do it, spend less time debating over changing it, and more time making nice new VR Scenes,

 

It's self explanatory now w/ the example, no need to start changing everything around.

 

And there's a Reason for the way it is.

 

The sim should be looking for "VFC-12" within the "FA-18C_hornet" Folder, as there are some liveries w/ matching names across multiple aircraft.

I'm sorry if you feel attacked by my comments. That was not my intention and I apologize for that. I like to make things easily accessible to everyone. That was my only intention.

[Doum76]

Thanks to SkateZilla for clearing out the use of livery setting syntaxe. Here's my updated VR Hangar Scene for thsoe who wants it, updated now to use the livery loading syntaxe, you can now edit each of the aricraft model to set your own liveries of the few F/A-18c Lot 20, the AV-8B and the M-2000C.

Ok SkateZilla, need a little more direction for us non .lua experts.

 

I found these lines in demosceneEnvironment.lua

 

local setLivery = function(self, livery , livery_folder)

return ED_demosceneAPI.setLivery(self.obj, livery , livery_folder)

end

 

Where do I add the new line you show in your post, to this part of the .lua like so?

 

local setLivery = function(self, livery , livery_folder)

return ED_demosceneAPI.setLivery(self.obj, livery , livery_folder)

scene.m.1:setLivery("VFC-12", "FA-18C_hornet");

end

 

Basically I don't know where to put this line to have it show up in the Main Menu scene for VR:

scene.m.1:setLivery("VFC-12", "FA-18C_hornet");

 

Thanks for the clarification and eductation.

no no, I should be apologizing, I didnt mean to come off so brash,

 

just meant to say that the definition plus working example are self explanatory, if we start changing the definition it will only confuse people (ie they will put the EDM Name instead of the aircraft livery folder etc)

Try replacing, "scene = {} -- ???? ?????? ??? ????????? ???????", with "scene = {} -- сюда кладем все созданные объекты"

 

 

Wouln't do much, as all the stuff you replaced after the -- makes it just a note, adding -- before a line makes it a note/remarks.
