Hi,

You use the animation class name not it's source. Most class Animations names defined under Model.cfg have the same name as the animation sources they use. So it appears as though you can use the list on animation sources mentioned on the wiki.

To get the revs, speed, oil temp e.t.c you need to use:

IndicatorRPM

IndicatorSpeed

IndicatorOilTemp

Double check your model.cfg to make sure it's using the same names.

Scar09,

Similar to the Su34 model.cfg, this is from my Su33 model.cfg.

class ExhaustUp

{

type="translation";

source="rpm";

memory=1;

selection="exhaust_up";

axis="exhaust_up_axis";

minValue=0;

maxValue=5;

angle0=0;

angle1=-3;

offset0=0;

offset1=-3;

};

i dont think the naming has a role, the animation works with any other source, its like my vessel would have no rpm at all that can be measured.

i can workaround with gmeter, i actually just want to have some moving gauges, and speed, fuel and compass work without any problems.

i just wonder what cause the engine to think that my vessel is sailboat.

@gnat

any experiences with ships? stupid question, i know.

what i want to ask is if you tried it with plane only or did you get rpm gauge working on a ship aswell?

thx for your time guys

Yeah, sorry. For some reason I assumed you were talking about reading the animation sources via scripts. Probably because I had tested the rpm sources before without any problems, until I tried to do it through scripts.

The BIA RHIB has selections and animations defined for two rpm indicators. But these don't appear to work in game. So there might be a problem with boats?

as far i can say, yes there is.same with oiltemp i think.

i will take a look in the rhib, didnt noticed that rpm is not working there aswell. thought that where fixed in some patch.

thx again
