very cool!

[Evj]

Thats cleo huh?

Really great work.I saw the old one thread and this mod is great.

[dvb_memphis]

Thanks everyone

[JoWie]

wow, one of the greatest cleo mods i've ever know i have two suggestions and one question...

 

-could you put the letters bigger?, just a little, i think they are pretty tiny

-can you put the transmision info (i mean, the gears)

 

and

 

-how do the "km left" works? i thought it was the kms that could be traveled with the remaining gas, but when you down the speed the number changes, i also wondered if it was the distance to the red marker you could put anywhere on the map but the distances are not right

[SLAYERMAGGOT]

Oh Lord, wow, really amazing work

I want to try this one, if i installing my San Andreas again

[Darecki]

but when you down the speed the number changes,

That's because when you drive slower, then the car spents less fuel, but also drives slower, so the number changes via mathematic calculations

[dvb_memphis]

Exactly

 

If the computer says is because that's true all the math is correct

 

JoWie:

 

I can increase the letters of course, I am doing another right now, with diferent appearence and the program lines have been all changed, and I will increase RPM meter, OIL PRESSURE and gas instant consumption all analog, and in there I will put bigger letters and manual/automatic trasmission.

 

I apologize because I am not doing the other speedometer to 4:6 monitors because I do not have how to test that. If anyone want one, ask me by PM of MSN and I will help

[dvb_memphis]

I anounce here now that I have BIG ideas for the next one, I have done the design base, not too fancy, if anyone know about photoshop or other and want to help to make those gauges I would be very thankfull. I have mine, so the new ones need to have the same scale... I didnt write the numbers on it... thats a boring job But the base tree of programing is done

 

When I feel thats proper I will post one picture.

 

Thanks again.

[dvb_memphis]

OK, I will show you what I have so far:

 

With turbo:

 

Without turbo:

 

All gauges are singular, so I can ad one without another, gives me more freedom

 

Speedometer and tachometer are variable:

 

80km/h

160km/h

240km/h

320km/h

400km/h

 

16000rpm

8000rpm

5000rpm

4000rpm

12000rpm turbo

8000rpm turbo

6000rpm turbo

4000rpm turbo

 

If anyone want to make the gauges thats ok, but all them HAVE to be separated and has to be with the same size, because is dificult to put all in place again :s

 

Could change a little bit...but is this the basic form...

[onetidd]

Thanx for that usefull mod, but i want to know how to have the turbo please? Is it the nos?

And on your post the first picture link don't work!!

[dvb_memphis]

Not all the car have turbo...only a few....find them

 

Thanks for the advise...but wich one? all work for me :s

[Wonderbro]

Very goood!!!!!!

[onetidd]

Sorry, that's good now. Thanks for your excellent work. Waiting for the release like the pictures...

[Darecki]

Hi! I've just tested your excellent mod. It's great but I have some suggestrions..

For now it's way to small! I can't read any letters from the speedo (I use 800x600 btw). Also, it's stretched in width, cause i'm using 4:3 monitor...

And about the speed - It does't count the velocity correct! As I tested, the car with maximum speed 250 km/h, on Your speedometer "drives" over 280.. I've compared it with my speedo. It's easy to change ( I hope so that also in your mod ) so if you find some time, correct the multipler or what you have responsible for it

But rest of the things work fine It's great

 

Keep up the great work!

 

Oh and I have one question - what does this big interjection in orange triangle do? xD

Yes, I used multiplier 4, but to change now is very hard, because that multiplier is used in many things more important than speed, and if I use the "real" speed, tha cars have to be faster (think in veyron), and some cars of the game barely reach 200km/h (turismo and others), for thar, is better my way

 

And one more thing, when you read in one magazine 250 km/h, te real speed is 260 or more

 

I think thats not important, is more important the bug when you leave transfender or other car change the gasometer became blank, you have to get ou and in again. Thats a serious problem.

 

But, I can think in insert the correct multiplayer, but now I am interested in make credible manual gears in the new mod

 

That triangle show that something is wrong, you need so pay atention to other signs, flat tire, few gas or you are pushing hard of turbo and is damaging the car....

Yes, same problem. dvb_memphis in first post says: ONLY FOR 16:9 SCREENS FOR NOW but what does it means? How to change it?

[Darecki]

And one more thing, when you read in one magazine 250 km/h, te real speed is 260 or more

 

 

No, no in one magazine, in handling.cfg

[dvb_memphis]

I know lol, but in real life you see 250 in magazines and the car can do more...

 

 

I have laptop with panoramic display, thats 16:9, it's fisical, not software, to use correcty you need a 16:9 monitor...

[JoWie]

i know what canm you add

 

-a NOS meter

-a flying hud like this one http://www.gta-modding.it/area/index.php?act=view&id=188 or this one http://www.gta-modding.it/area/index.php?act=view&id=258 but of course, better

-something for the boats (i don't know an example)

For the aircrafts I use the second, is pretty good, so I don't need to change, Boats...i don't loke boats that much lol...

 

But NOS meter I will think about it

[onetidd]

I think the second i better to. But can you tell me how can i stay in cruise mode? Because it's stop when i use my brake or when i stop??!??

 

Or can you make like that one : Here

I mean the speedo on the map, if think it's better...

Edited December 29, 2008 by onetidd

[JoWie]

for planes i use the first, but is a little... incomplete, and, i suggest that (the planes hud and the boat meter) to you to have the most complete hud speedometer, odometer, hud, etc... usable for all vehicles and with a lot of data showed

 

for the aircrafts i thought it could be great to have the view of the first and the data of the second, and for the boats could be great a speedometer (with knots and kms ), a damagemeter, mmmm, i think that would be enough

 

i used to use that one (onetidd's post)

I did the cruise control that way because cleo is very limited, do not let me do all the thinks I want, and one is control any wheel of the car, give torque, break, etc.

 

Believe it or not, that is the most realistic cruise control that I made, if you speed up you'll go, leave it and it will return to the previous speed, but if you pull hand brake, or normal brake or jump of a cliff, the cruise control will turn off.

 

About the speedometer around the map, I did one once but it has 2 things:

 

-in my 16:9 screen it apears like the map, stretched, doesn't look well, and more important, I like to see the speed niddle complete, is easier to see the speed and you have more perception os the aceleration...

[dvb_memphis]

I Forgot to say:

 

When the speed limiter is on, you can increase or decrease the selected speed with the radio buttons or mouse scroll.

 

thanks.

[onetidd]

Alright, that's ok, for me the cruise is the most realistic i never seen before. Good Work!

[dvb_memphis]

Thanks

 

It's very important all your questions for me, because that shows interest on my work, and that gives me motivation for the next one and make me very proud of it, I know that is not perfect, and that's why I am making another, trying to reach perfection.

 

Thanks again

 

P.S.: The automatic gear of the new one is already done =D very realistic!

 

The manual is not that realistic because of cleo limitations...but I will avoid that...I will associate de numbers 1 2 3 4 5 of keyboard to the gears, that way is will be fine...I only need to find what is the keypress of 1 2 3 4 5

 

P.S.2: I decided to make 5 gears in every car, truck, bike....to make variable gears is a lot complex programing...and this is getting bigger and bigger...I'll think about that.

 

More important now is to know the keypresses....

 

Thanks again.

[usfvampire]

dvb_memphis very interesting you're working in automatic-manual gears.

I have two suggestion I think a little complicated:

- The sistem of refuel could be more realistic: for example we can choose the quantity of fuel to buy and the cost of it.

- Then it will be very nice to do the possibility of turn on arrow light when we turn in a street and you can create also an indicator in the speedometer when the arrow light is on.

 

However great work.

Hello, the refueling part I thinked about that and I will make that, no matter what.

 

The arrow...I can promise that I will try...but like I said before,I need the complete keypresses lol, I am getting out of buttons...

 

Thanks;)

[onetidd]

Hum, do you mean the numpad 1,2,3,4,5 or other keypresses?
