T.Hanford 10 Posted August 16, 2015 In ACE3 there is a new slideshow module. Only objects with hiddenSelection 0 can be used as screens... What does hiddenSelection 0 mean? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted August 16, 2015 Hidden selections are predefined parts of a 3D model that can be altered by a script command or config. I don't know that specific slideshow module you're referring to, but I'd assume it's used to display custom images / textures in-game on certain objects. That means only objects with these hidden selections defined in their underlying 3D models can be used by the module to display a slideshow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted August 16, 2015 By the way, objects such as laptops, desktop monitors, or the flatscreen TV have a hidden selection entry for their display section allowing you to set a custom texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a way to find out which objects are like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted August 16, 2015 Config Viewer >> CfgVehicles >> Classname of the Object in Question >> hiddenSelections[] Property <- If that is empty that means there are no hidden selections configured. As said, all screens seem to have it. Most uniforms and vehicles do; signs and billboards as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellman 9 Posted October 5, 2015 Ok thank you very much :) What kind of items did you use to setup the module? I've been sitting and trying for the past 5-6 hours. I can't find a object that allows me to interact with it and change the images or even choose a image. Apoligies if this counts as necro-posting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
