gui radar and compass hud for T3D

#1 Cool. Figured someone would get around to doing this :D Now to get the spherical radar working...

#2 thanks for the port - but please don't bundle compass artwork without asking permission first or giving credit to our free resources that we give the community. thanks!

#3 Our original free resource pack, with enclosed EULA. Anyone who has downloaded this resource will need to download our compass texture pack, else you are using it without our permission.

#4 @Something2Play,
I apologise, I did mention that the textures came off the forums, but I have such a mix of textures in one folder that its near impossible to remember where they came from.
and thank you for a fine compass texture pack.

#5 Hi Deepscratch - it's not a major problem, just that our studio paid a contractor to do them (one of many compass designs), so we'd like to get our money back through commercial studios if we can, as we're currently an indie studio ourselves, and as we like to help out Indie developers as much as we can to reach commercial status, we cannot do this if the textures are put out there without EULA. It could also put the commercial studios that use our textures into trouble if they believe it to be free and we find out. We could have asked GG to remove the resource, but instead I added the link to the original. We or other studios might not be so helpful next time! It's worth remembering where you got them from :)

#6 did you use this with Beta2? I might be doing something wrong, but I can't get it to show up. (I am new to torque).

#7 yeah, it works 100% with beta2
what problems you having there David?

#8 This is what the console tells me.. not really helpfull. I am wondering if it did not compile correctly (using Visual express 2008)

147: Unable to instantiate non-conobject class GuiRadarCtrl.
164: Unable to instantiate non-conobject class HorizCompassCtrl.

#9 I think youre having a problem with file paths.
check them.
I cant check right now, I'm recovering from a massive burn up.
popped my main pc's hard drive and motherboard a few nights back, only today got round to replacing, also bought a GTX-295, gotta install that, then gotta format and install windows 7, then gotta reinstall all my programs, luckly I have full backups of everything, just time needed to get all up and running again, so by tomorrow I'll be able to check it out.

#10 I figured it out. It wasn't compiling because I had an old version of directX SDK installed along with the new one. After removing the old, it compiled and worked. Thanks.

#11 I tried to use on TGEA 1.8.0 the code you attached. The compass works perfectly, but the radar does not seem to work just. Do you have any idea to fix it?

My configuration:

1. Windows Vista
2. TGEA 1.8.0 Fixed
3. DirectX March 2009
4. Visual Studio 2008 Team System SP1

#12 This working well in T3D 1.0.1
Thanks for this.

Deep, could you tell me how to get the map background screenshot for this ressource?

#13 Hi DeepScratch, the link to rapishare seems to be down?

anychance to upload the files again? if not, could you send me the files please?

thanks!!!
