How does pos works?

how does pos works?
I tried to add night texture to a vehicle but;

-Night animation was always on all day and night
-Animation was spinning

+At least it was fitting to it's place

I can give the plugin file to the trusted ones to test it or help me. It has a special code in it, that's why I can't put it here

My, as an expert, reply - how it works I do not know. All I know is that it works and that you'll need a lot of trial and error.

Code: Select all

        "pos": [15, 2, 15, 0, 6, -2, 5, 5],
        "frames": [0, 3]

The numbers in this array for example are where the white light pixels will be placed on graphic frames 0 and 3

[yusuf8a684]

Thanks commanderABab. I will try those

[CommanderABab]

Remember, they are not all in the right place. :/
And it's hard to debug, when they are all moving around.

I used the code you gave me but it didn't work

This is how it is like

[CommanderABab]

That's because multiple frames in one animation definition are all drawn in the order given.

You should just provide one side for four animations, then call those as required.

[yusuf8a684]

Oh, soo I need to write own templates for each animation. Thanks for help ABab

[yusuf8a684]

But, what about animations working all day and night?

[CommanderABab]

But, what about animations working all day and night?

Put "light switching":true if you just want them to show at night.

[yusuf8a684]

Every animation is fitting now! Thanks again but I made all light switching true but lights are open all day and night still
