quantumscrewdriver Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I am unable to change color... there is only the white one... what I am doing wrong?Try right-clicking on the parts once they've been placed. Hopefully that works!One of the smallest but coolest mods!Thanks, we think so too!Suggestions: Make 'em procedural, with adjustable length, width and thickness. Eventually even with a curvature slider.You hit the nail on the head. We're really interested in getting those features implemented, but Zarenor's the real workhorse here. His ideas for the UI are highly likely to be best in the long run, but will take longer to roll out. After all, RGB+Value, Pulse Length, Width, Height, Length, and Curvature? That's a *lot* of sliders. Plus linking Throttle→Value. Those who just want the old way -- if only to keep things small -- can always snag the old GlowStrips.

Preliator Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) I removed this mod because KSPAPIExtensions is incompatible with 64 bit... if Zarenor update it I'll try your solution... Edited July 18, 2014 by Preliator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarenor Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Hey Guys,I got version 0.4 out, with the GlowStripThin!This is the thinner strip you've all been asking for!The GlowStripThin is also length-adjustable, and can be bound to the throttle, so I knocked out a couple of requests at once.I left the old parts in, so your old craft should still load/fly. You should exclude the old strips from your builds when possible, I'll be looking to eliminate them whenever I get to a serious model and texture rework, in another update or three.Please do let me know if you find any bugs, new or old.Hope you enjoy the update!

thrandisher Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Damn, never saw this one before. Nice idea for lighting.Thanks for providing with and without modstat versions. While i don't mind it, others might, and giving the options are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdHorseman Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) So the version on KerbalStuff and Curse have ModStats included? To get the non-ModStat version you need to get the one on GDrive?I downloaded both and the one from KerbalStuff looks like it has ModStats included, and I don't see a noMS version there.Thanks! Great looking mod! I'm looking forward to welding some neat pre-fab shapes to cut down on part number...EDIT: Nevermind I found the GlowStrips without ModStats version on KerbalStuff. Didn't realize it was listed as a separate mod. Edited July 23, 2014 by ThirdHorseman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarenor Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Yes. On KerbalStuff, if you read the description there, the word 'without' is a link-through to the version without ModStats. Alternately, if you search for GlowStrips on KerbalStuff, both should come up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeT93 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Just downloaded and will be using these on my next rocket! Hoping you'll be adding semi-circular ones to wrap around the base of fuel tanks soon. Thanks for the mod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegrade Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm loving this mod. I shrink the adjustable strips down to little squares and I use them as running lights or markers for docking ports I've been looking for something like this for a long time, and using Z-100 batteries for that purpose prior heh...

Zarenor Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 GeorgeT93: We're looking at a few options for glowing things of different shapes, but I have some other plans first. Sit tight, we've got quite a bit coming.Renegrade: Awesome! Our original motivation for these was making our space station not-a-star, and still labeling sides of the station clearly, by color.

Catullus Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 This is a fantastic mod, I'm plastering them all over my station components now. There's one part I think would be incredibly useful - a GlowRing for docking ports. A thin part that can stack under a docking port and makes a neat little ring around it so we can dock more easily at night.Thanks for all your work so far!

BudgetHedgehog Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 There's one part I think would be incredibly useful - a GlowRing for docking ports.They already exist in Stack Inline Lights, but as GlowStrips uses emissives, they won't look as terrible.. hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catullus Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Yes, exactly. The GlowStrips look much better. Also, the stack inline lights (which I just realised I've actually used before) aren't particularly visible from end on.

Apollo13 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I suggest round and square GlowStrips. I would then use TweakScale to size them as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaalidas Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 An interesting idea would be to have the option to allow the glow-strip to actually emit a very (and I mean really) small light-area around itself so it could be made to illuminate the parts around it, just ever so slightly, in the range of... say... a couple in inches from where the strip makes contact with the parts around it. Come to think of it, that would probably require a bunch of individual light sources along the length of the strip, each of which would subtract another dynamic light source from the total allowance. bleh... and I was so close to being able to add a glowing bottom to my repulsor-equipped (see upcoming releases of lo-fi's wheel mod) hot rods. oh well.

Our original motivation for these was making our space station not-a-star, and still labeling sides of the station clearly, by color. (As well as marking where ports were, etc.)It works very well for this sort of purpose Unfortunately there's some glitch I'm trying to run down where the 0.4.2 edition's GUI seems to object to some other mod I install (not sure which though -- possibly ProcFairings?). It's on a 32-bit, 0.24.2 install..and the window seems to be missing it's well, non-usable areas. The usable areas seem to work just fine though.Also I noticed the thin strip is.. well, very thin, and sometimes ends up embedded under the surface of a 2.5m tank.. On some angles, I can get it to come out of the tank, but on others it can never quite surface.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FennexFox Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 That's exactly what I wanted! Is it planned to come in stack inline light form? You're latest change log doesn't include curvature adjustment. That would be perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzer1b Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Success! It's beautiful...http://imgur.com/a/BM656HECK YES!Now all we need are the trails (preferably with physics enabled) so i can make a light yet, and ofc then some stuff to dogfight....
