Tomtomdb83 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Just now found this thread! This is awesome! Iv'e been messing around with modding here and there for about a year now. And now that I'm stuck in the house for who knows how long, this is all i been doing. So far Iv'e made a fuel tank, nosecone, cargo bay, stack adapter and a wing. Nothing to brag about but I got them into the game and they worked so I was happy! I also made a command pod and am also struggling to get the lights to work. Iv'e been trying for 2 days strait, literally! I can not do it! I've tried everything and now I'm starting to wonder if my unity install is messed up or my part tools is wrong. I'm using unity 2019.2.2 and the latest Part Tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasml Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 @Tomtomdb83 Thanks! Hope it's helpful - if you find any mistakes please let me know. As far as lights on a command pod - I haven't done a command pod yet but understand the window glow is an emissive animation. If you have questions about color animations there's a link and some notes (notes.txt) in the WIP Lights project. Unity 2019.2.2f1 is the Unity KSP 1.8.X and 1.9.X use - important if you're writing plugin's but not so important for parts (though I don't know what would happen if you used, say parttools version 1.9.0 with Unity version 5.2.4). Happy modding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VenomCell Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Appreciate the work you've put in this! What's the deal with setting up emissives on lights? I've got this sweet light I created that has made me age a year in the last two days from frustration. I checked the Mod Development Links Compilation thread that actually has a link to setting up lights with emissives, but the link is dead. 90% of those links are dead. I'm losing my mind!

wasml Posted July 11, 2020 Author Share Posted July 11, 2020 I've been unable to get the light to work - either the light works or emissive works but never both. Changing "useAnimationDim" in the config file from true to false toggles which works. I've tried everything I can think of including things that I didn't think would work (they didn't) and unless I find some new information or think of something new to try I'm stuck. If you do manage to figure this out I'd be very interested in hearing what you did to get it to work. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemeac Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 @wasml, thanks for these, they have been really helpful to poke around to see how things work as well as your notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasml Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 @hemeac Your welcome, glad you found them useful. If you spot anything that doesn't make sense or is just wrong/confusing please let me know. PS. Saw your Aerobee page - looks nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was able to get my SRB together without much hassle as well. Really saving me a lot of hours of frustration. For the emissive, I used a couple of different modules that I took out of TantaresLV part configs that seems to be used in some newer engines (guessing they are new?). That seemed to work well and didn't require the use of the color animation tool, but need to play around with the settings a bit more. Spoiler MODULE { name = FXModuleThrottleEffects fxModuleNames = heatColor responseSpeed = 0.1 dependOnEngineState = True dependOnThrottle = True } MODULE { name = ModuleColorChanger moduleID = heatColor animRate = 1.0 shaderProperty = _EmissiveColor //excludedRenderer = EngineCore toggleInEditor = false toggleInFlight = false redCurve { key = 0 0 1 1 key = 1 1 1 1 } greenCurve { key = 0 0 1 1 key = 1 1 1 1 } blueCurve { key = 0 0 1 1 key = 1 1 1 1 } alphaCurve { key = 0 0 1 1 key = 1 1 1 1 } } By any chance, do you have a good resource that documents the different shaders?

Unfortunately no - and I haven't seen anything either. One thing I have seen is the when I use the Bumped Specular (Mapped) the part is invisible in the VAB when dropped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JewelShisen Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Is there any hope of getting a Cargo Bay added to this? I'm hoping to add a few to Hooligan Labs and can't find any good examples of how to make one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasml Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 @JewelShisenI made a WIP cargo bay - minimal testing - drag does increase when the doors are open. As this is the first cut at a part I haven't made before take everything with a large grain of salt. The file is CargoBay - 1110.zip on the download site.
