Turn indicators [CLEO4/SA/REL]

[Den_spb]

Description:

This script allows to use turn indicators while driving automobile or motobike. Coronas are created at positions of headlights and back lights of vehicle, which are calculated automatically. So, you can use this script with all models of automobiles and motobikes, without additional files. If trailer is attached to automobile with enabled turn indicators, it will have enabled turn indicators too.

 

Version 1.1. Indicators work after player exit car until enter another car.

Version 2.0. AI-drivers can use indicators, no CJ only.

Version 2.1. Some bugs were fixed.

 

Installation:

1.Download and install CLEO4 library from cleo.sannybuilder.com.

2.Put file turn_indicators.cs to cleo folder.

 

How to use:

Z - enable left indicators, C - enable right indicators, X - enable all indicators. Press this buttons again to disable indicators (in v.2 disable indicators by Shift button).

 

Script was made for game version 1.0 US. Work with other versions of game is not guaranteed.

Lights must blink. If blinking isn't visible, you can enlarge pause between flashes:

        if           32@ > 1000 // duration of flash + pause between flashes (ms)       then           32@ = 0       end       if           32@ < 500 // duration of flash in ms       then

 

is it work with modded vehicles ?

It works with all vehicles.

Good one! Works pretty well, although indicators mostly are placed in the wrong position - but that's not your fault.

Now it would be cool to see other cars using indicators in traffic - and maybe when both indicators together would still continue flickering when you leave the car.

Nice job, really well done - thanks!

[Den_spb]

Thanks for good opinions.

Maybe, I'll do it later.

Nice man i gonna download it now. But i seen such mod over at gtainside once, very old mod, but as i know, very bugged for sure, lol.

 

[at72]

Thanks a lot for making the new version! It's great, I'll keep this CLEO in forever!

[Ghost glendale fan 4 live]

Thanks very very much man

[Rob.Zombie]

Wow very nice I wish we could have this in GTA IV.

[Neova]

Great job but can you make it so the AI cars also use the indicators?

[Gramps]

Great job but can you make it so the AI cars also use the indicators?

+1 for this.

 

Also 'white' reversing lights too ? And a 'beep' if its a truck or heavy vehicle reversing ?

[Den_spb]

V 2.0 was loaded to gtagarage.com.

Now turn signals can be use at AI-cars.

[Kmeto 2]

Very nice mod, thank you for this one

[Darecki]

That's what I was waiting for! Thanks Hope that v2 will be approved soon.

 

I understand that it is possible to change the position of indicators in the script?

[Den_spb]

Kmeto 2, thanks for opinion.

Darecki, indicators are created at points of headlights and tail lights placing - as in previous versions.

[Darecki]

Umm, so there is no chance to make them for example +2 to the outside of car or something? I think it will look better as indicators are mostly at the edges. Maybe this can be added in new version, what do you think?

[Sonnу]

this mod is incredible! do you plan to add the sound effects? also, could you please send me a modified script with changed keys? i need left turn to right ctrl and right turn to left alt! thank you.

[Den_spb]

Sonny Red, thanks for opinion. I don't plan add sounds now.

How to change buttons:

1.Put file turn_indicators2.txt into cleo folder

2.Open txt-file by Sanny Builder (File-Open)

3.Change numbers of buttons (90, 88, 67) here

            if                 0AB0:  key_pressed 90 // Z             then                 0_StatusOfPlayerCar = 1_Left               else                 if                     0AB0:  key_pressed 88 // X                 then                     0_StatusOfPlayerCar = 1_Both                   else                     if                         0AB0:  key_pressed 67 // C                     then                         0_StatusOfPlayerCar = 1_Right                     else                         if                             0AB0:  key_pressed 16 // Shift                         then                             0_StatusOfPlayerCar = 0                         end                       end                                      end                      end

Numbers of buttons are in SB Help: Help - Contents - CLEO3 - Virtual key codes 0AB0, column Decimal

4.Compile script after editing (Run-Compile).

 

Darecki, you can change offsets of lights yourself. For example, increase standard X offsets to 1.0 and Z offsets to 0.5:

:Get_lights_coords0A8E: 0_Adress = 0_VehicleStruct + 0x22 // int 0A8D: 0_Adress = read_memory 0_Adress size 2 virtual_protect 0 //model index0_Adress *= 40_Adress += 0xA9B0C80A8D: 0_Adress = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //CModel0_Adress += 0x5C                                        0A8D: 0_Adress = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //vehicle struct0A8D: 0_FrontLightX = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //x offset0_Adress += 40A8D: 0_FrontLightY = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //y offset0_Adress += 40A8D: 0_FrontLightZ = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //z offset0_Adress += 40A8D: 0_BackLightX = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //x offset0_Adress += 40A8D: 0_BackLightY = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //y offset0_Adress += 40A8D: 0_BackLightZ = read_memory 0_Adress size 4 virtual_protect 0 //z offsetif   0_FrontLightX == 0.0then   0_FrontLightX = 0.15endif   0_BackLightX == 0.0then   0_BackLightX = 0.15end0_FrontLightX += 1.0 // NEW COMMANDS HERE0_BackLightX += 1.00_FrontLightZ += 0.50_BackLightZ += 0.5return

But I think that the variant with standard offsets is the best variant.

[Darecki]

For now I can say that new version crashes my SA.. When I enter a car or when any vehicle will try to appear (when I approach a road)...

[Gramps]

It works for me; but sometimes it crashes also. I removed San Andreas Limit Adjuster, and used StreamMemFix instead, and didn't have a crash for over 10 mins ..

 

But..

 

Sometimes, they don't indicate when turning (I guess thats good, not all drivers do LOL)

 

I can see the indicator texture/particle through the car sometimes ..

 

 

What particle is the effect based on ? It's quite large on my screen. Maybe make its own particle in particle.txd and make it smaller? So everyone can have the perfect size, but not effect any other particles in the game?

 

 

[Den_spb]

but sometimes it crashes also.

Script must work without crashes with gta_sa.exe 1.0 US version and v4.1.1.30 CLEO4 version. If you have another versions of game or cleo, I don't guarantee correct work of script.

If you have right versions of game and cleo and game is still crashing, install plugin ScmLog from cleo.sannybuilder.com. File scmlog.txt will be created after crashing - send it me.

 

 

Sometimes, they don't indicate when turning

Indicators enable before begin of turning usually. If indicators enable during turning or don't enable, that means low speed of script working (reasons: very many cars in traffic, many "heavy" modifications were installed, low-power computer...).

 

 

 

I can see the indicator texture/particle through the car sometimes ..

No you only. May be, it will be fixed later.

 

 

Maybe make its own particle in particle.txd and make it smaller?

0AA5: 0x6FC580 21 21 1 0 0x41700000 0 0x3FC00000 0 0 0 0 0 attach_corona_flare 0 type 0 0x43160000 radius 0.3 with_offsets 0_VectorPointer intensity 255 blue 0 green 128 red 255 to_vehicle_struct 0_VehicleStruct unical_number 0_UnicalNumberOfCorona

 

Here 0.3 is radius of corona. You can change it yourself.

[Gramps]

Ok, thanks for the help mate. Will play with the 0.3 value tonight.

 

Is it based on coronastar from particle.txd? What one do you use? As you can see, my indicator looks nothing like yours ..

[Den_spb]

 

Is it based on coronastar from particle.txd?

Yes.

My coronas different from standard coronas because I installed other effects.

[Gramps]

Oh ok; thanks for that. I'm using Overdose Effect 1.4 at the moment. What are you using?

[Den_spb]

I use "Effects by NS". Link: http://webfile.ru/5653290

Picture:

[Gramps]

Ok, thanks for the link; will try it out ..

 

One more question; what timecyc.dat do you use ^^

[Den_spb]

 

One more question; what timecyc.dat do you use

Standard.

[Gramps]

Ok thanks for that ^ ^

 

I found another bug; don't know if this is your scripts fault or not ..

 

But I have the Packer script, that has up to four cars on the Packer; and those vehicles have there indicators going as well lol
