ATS Headlight Options (colors, patterns, throws)

Description
This mod includes Halogen, LED, & Xenon headlight options for all SCS trucks that have headlight options in the store {this mod does not include SCS trucks that don't have headlight options(*)}.

NOTES:
- 149 release removed some trucks from their dealers. Headlight options are available for those trucks when you buy them used.
- Also included in this mod is Joko_P's mod "LED DRL + Sequential Blinker for WS 49X" (with permission) . You need not subscribe to his mod anymore; (Joko_P is no longer modding.)

(*) SCS trucks that do NOT have headlight options: international.lonestar, kenworth.t680(2014), peterbilt.389, peterbilt.5793

(**) The following codes define the various headlight options compared to SCS defaults:
[L;H] = Low beams shine wider and longer; High beams shine longer ('HiLo'),
[L>H] = Low and High beams both shine wider and longer ('Combd'),
[H] = Low beams shine the same ; High beams shine longer ('Hi only').

ok

i dont know anything about coding unfortunately, i checked out the program you mentioned but knowing myself i'll never figure it out :steamsad:

I use notepad++ (notepad-plus-plus[dot]org) . it makes such editing so easy.

i've opted to manually delete the mask lines from the head_light folder on each truck and write my custom mask lines into the pattern .sii so it applies to all trucks. it works pretty nicely although manually deleting lines took a bit of time, but it was worth it. for my custom mask, i created a folder called "custom" in the material folder. i put a more modern throw like those in modern cars!

If you mean "*_beam_range:" and "*_beam_angle:" (not mask), then yes, simply change them in \def\vehicle\truck\eyt_parameters\pattern.*.sui.
(Be aware, my next update will probably change "eyt_parameters" folder name.)

================
If you mean "mask", my mod uses default SCS masks.

Two options exist for changing those masks:
1) easier (applies change to all trucks simultaneously) - create a mod to overwrite \material\custom\trucklight_mask*.dds files [uses existing trucklight_mask*.tobj files], and DON'T edit \def\vehicle\truck\[brand.model\head_light\[file].sii.
OR
2) much harder (applies changes to one truck at a time) - create a mod with new [mask].dds, new [mask].tobj , and edit \def\vehicle\truck\[brand.model\head_light\[file].sii for each truck

hi again eddie, i really like the way you sctructured the mod now, i have a question... i have a custom headlight mask i want to use, if i place it in the patterns from the parameter folder, will it overwrite the mask already used in the default .sii on the truck folder? or do i have to delete the mask from that .sii in order to work?

Eddie Yantz  [author] 2 Jul @ 9:39am 
should be. I have yet to convoy ;)
Mushroom 2 Jul @ 9:32am 
is this convoy compatible?
Eddie Yantz  [author] 29 Jun @ 11:35am 
brightness is subjective. personally my favorite is LED Lamps [L>H] (5000K)
