Released Realistic Headlight Patterns

@Bryan139746825 any updates for us?

 

sorry for the long wait, I already finished my exams and I also made the realistic headlight patterns for the Procyon Centauri. I sent over the files to Finn and he will release it with the next update

As for the KLJP pack, ill do that soon

 

Awesome! Cannot wait. do you have a sneek peek for us?

I'd imagine, KLJP is very extensive to mod.

P.S. Hope, exams went well.

 

im so happy you managed to get it onto the Procyon Centuari

 

Hey Bryan, got an idea for ya. Would colorable headlights/foglights be a possibility with your mod? So you could have that HID White color in any of the older halogen equipped vehicles? Or maybe a yellow 3000k universally?

 

It sure would be possible, but it looks like he abandoned this....

 

So uh, I just started working on updating the mod yesterday and will continue today and tomorrow

I can try make this by adding a new headlight part with different colors, ill try it soon

 

If you make it your own headlight part, they might actually let you put it on the repo finally too!

 

Yeah plus traffic at night wont lag your PC to death

 

True true

Now idk what happened to the game, i assume its because i disabled mod vehicles for traffic and now traffic vehicles would use the default headlight beams, which increases fps by quite a bit

 

I always wanted this in BeamNG! Thank you!!!

 

Hey guys, so i think ill kinda overhaul the mod a bit. Ill add different types of headlights so halogen, hid or led. They will all give different colors and lighting ranges. Hopefully by doing this they will also allow it to go on the repository. Theres a lot of cars for me to add this to so it will take a little while.

 

So I finished like 10 cars so far, and heres a brief preview of what it will look and be like.
For some cars like the etk 800 and etk K i added all 3 types of headlights, halogen, hid and led. I also added the option for the bumpers. With or without cornering lights and halogen or led bulbs. They also perform differently, obviously LEDs are the best. I should be done within a week and by then i would have also already optimized the mod, I did some quick testing and was able to squeeze out a few extra fps so :]

edit: after a bit of testing it turns out the original cone beams from the base game is heavier to run than this mod. The scinilla with the base game beams takes away 5 fps while the mod only takes 3.5fps so ig thats a thing :]

 

Good work!
Just a small question: When will it be released?

 

Very nice mod, I was driving around with it a bit and it's great! Much more realistic than vanilla
However, I've noticed the lights still use the - slightly odd looking - vanilla flares:
If you want me to I can write you a quick script which would allow you to add custom ones with a JSON file which, in turn, would allow you to add your own textures:

(Example taken from the world editor: "vehicleHeadLightFlare", accessible by checking "Show Complete Scene Tree" in the preferences)

 

Small answer: He said within a week...

 

In some vanilla offroad lights you can choose if you want halogen or LED. What about these?

 

Hi,

for this, i have no set date yet but maybe this week. Im a little bit busy currently but im already like 35% done so ill release it soon. In the mean time theres still the original mod.

Ill be more then happy if you are willing to send a simple script :]

For this mod, ill basically add different varients. For the newer cars like the etk 800, there is halogen, HID and LED. For the old cars like the ETK I or Pessima, it will have oem halogen lights and aftermarket LED's

 

Sure, here you go. The JSON file with the flare data is in lua/ge/extensions/zeit

 

Thank you soo much, ill try to implement it asap :]
