Speedometer?

by Nicholas Driscoll · in Torque Game Engine · 12/07/2004 (10:56 am) · 5 replies

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good speedometer made with TorqueScript, not c++. If anyone knows how I could do this with scripting, that would be fantastic!

Does anyone even know if this is possible?

There's an in-built speedometer gui in the starter.racing. However, it's just some red lines drawn that rotate about a point based on your speed. To make a more graphically appealing one, don't think there's any escaping the c++

Hmm, you could create a simple animated 3D camera facing one that animates from 0 to 100% variably controled in code. I've done it before but not in torque.

You could actually use the speedometer provided with the racing demo and just create a new interface for it.

You can also check this resource

I think he wanted it in Torquescript instead of C++ because he has not purchased the engine yet?

But I wish I knew about that resource earlier instead of rolling my own. Ah well! At least I have an rpm meter to go with it!
