Title: F***in RTT, how does it work?
Post by: Talon 1024 on October 08, 2012, 03:22:59 pm

Or rather, how do I get it working?

I've defined a cockpit display in the ships TBM like this:

Code: [Select]

$Cockpit Display:
+Texture: HUD
+Offsets: (0, 0)
+Size: (640, 640)
+Background: CP_Disp_BG
+Foreground: CP_Disp_FG
+Display Name: Radar
And I've defined a HUD gauge that uses the display like this:

Code: [Select]

  +Radar BSG:
Position: (0, 0)
Cockpit Target: Radar
Canvas Size: (1024, 1024)
Display Size: (640, 640)
However, when I try it ingame, it doesn't show up on the cockpit display I defined in ships.tbl.  How do I get this to work? Is there something obvious I'm missing here?

is your cockpit panel texture separate from the rest of your cockpit?

Yes, it's called HUD(.dds).

I'm using one of Scooby Doo's cockpit models.

If you can post the models and textures here I can take a look at it when I get back from work.

Or just download the Banshee from this thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=73516.0), since it's the one I'm working with.

EDIT: I just made a mini-mod so that others can take a look.  Get it here (http://www.ciinet.org/kevin/cpitminimod.7z).

I spent the week knocking out bugs in the cockpit HUD system. I've finally spewed out some working examples.
