Fix for non-ASCCI characters in config file

• ver. 1.4.1.2

A quick fix for replacing non-ASCII characters that could be found in config files that would make the Python's configParser crash. Sorry

• ver. 1.4.1.1 Reintroduced the Flags switch:

Since not all tracks have real digital flags, like Oulton Park has:

Tracks lights builder could pick an object and use it...

Fix for log error

• 1.4.1.3 another quick fix. This time for an error that would have filled the log if the app was ran in user mode

I removed the configs file from the app to make it lighter again.
If you want to find config files, search them in the libraries of the AC Custom Shaders Discord channel.

Can you use this mod online?

 

[Blamer]

I never used it online but I don't see why not, it's just a light toggler and performance monitor

Unless you wanted to build lights while racing online...

Thanks.

Do you need to use this in conjunction with other mods? I presume you do?

Completely missed this...
Seems indispensable, so I downloaded and installed, but it does not show in game. It is present in the CM UI, files are where they should be afaik, icons too, but the icon does not show in the app list on the right side of the screen ?
Do I need to check something ? I tried checking the developer mode box too (just to see), but no, no app.

EDIT: nevermind. I don't use the normal AC starter, always CM. Just figured out I had to enable the app in AC (normal start). And now it shows when I start in CM.
Is that supposed to be like that ? I thought apps always worked automatically in CM ?

When I try to click on any light or material to edit, AC crashes. Uninstalled the app manually, file by file, then reinstall using CM. I can use the app to switch lights/material on/off but just not edit. Any ideas?

Happens in Oulton Park - any track.

As any other apps, it needs to be enabled the first time, from standard AC starter or from within CM itself (settings>assetto corsa>apps)

hmmm...you could not have the latest version of the shaders patch or you could not have the latest version of the track. Mine is from actrackreboot

Hi.
First of all thank you for the excellent work you do and for sharing it with everyone.
I have a problem, I install the program well, I think I do it well, but only the information screen of the FPS is shown, the other options that I can see in the videos you have shown do not appear.
I use CM, although using the original Corsican Asset, the options do not appear either, only the FPS window.
Do you think I'm making a mistake in something or is it possible that something is happening to me?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have shaders ligths patch enabled?

Similar problem here.
With 1.4.x versions, I only see a black box and a message saying I don't have shaders patch enabled. But it is, not only because I'm sure I just installed the last beta, but because I can see all the lights, from my car and the circuit both.

I deleted it, installed last 1.3.x version and it works perfect. Then I installed first 1.4.x I have in my hard drive and black box again

 

[Blamer]

What version of the shaders patch are you guys using?

Also, from the Main Page:
Should you have problems launching the app, expecially the first time, is because Content Manager is not creating the settings file. Should it happen go to CM > settings > apps > BLM Lights > edit one option (like check/uncheck one parameter). This will force CM to create the settings file with the needed parameters

 

[manc0ntr0]

I'm using the very last beta available. Downloaded just a few minutes ago. Previously I had 5x preview I think, but not sure. Version 1.4.x doesn't work with any of them. Version 1.3.x does.

I already modified the settings without result, it keeps saying I don't have shaders patch enabled.

I'm going to upload an update today

Blamer updated BLM Lights with a new update entry:

Insert lights by position, new KEY options, new icons by light type

• ver. 1.4.3.0
  • You can now add new lights by camera position for [LIGHT_X] sections
    • Create your LIGHT_ section, open the editor app and at the bottom of it you now have the camera position. You can set both coordinates together (for LINE_FROM and for LINE_ TO) with the 'v' button, or single coordinates with the '>' buttons

Unfortunately, the same result as the other 1.4.x versions. The first pic is without touch anything after a fresh install. The second is with "developer mode" enabled.
As you can see, shaders patch is enabled and running.
