Hi,
today I want to give you some hints about the new
Super Arrow Image Gauge. With this object you do almost any analog car dial.
How to use it:- prepare a cool
dial image to be under your arrow (could be a photo of any car dial for rpm, speed, fuel, temp, etc.). This image should not exceed the 540 x 540 pixel and obviously your dial image must be centered, see the Ring Texture Pack or the compass image in attachment to learn how to make your dial
- prepare your
arrow image, to make your arrow simply download and open an arrow image with Photoshop from the
Arrow Texture Pack and use it as a template for your own arrow creation, same as for dial image must not exceed 540 x 540 pixel
Now you have finished your ARROW and DIAL image put them in the
vdash_template/pictures/ directory
In our example we are creating
a compass with the Wind Direction telemetry data from Assetto Corsa which give us the wind direction in degrees from 0 to 359° and of course the dial and arrow image are in attachment ready to be downloaded,
so just extract the zip and put both images into the
vdash_template/pictures/ directory
Now you have all elements ready we can create the compass dial... see the next post
