HVAC Plugin

DjBac · 04-27-2005, 03:23 AM

For the last few days I've been trying to make a plugin for RR...
It is for HVAC (and all the other RR commands)..

This is an early stage, but I am looking for some icons.. For rear and front defroster.. i have some images but the result isn't any good!!

No problem

They'll be making their way into my HVAC system that I'm building. No servos

Looks like you need the ISO and IEC common database for Graphical symbols.

I thought that your lexus needed one servo for temp!! Am I wrong??

I am done with the HVAC, only need to get the plugin more functional now!!
With this way I can have more functions of RR with dual monitors!

DO you know where we can find such graphical symbols?

Hey Dj, nice to see you've got to the final part, I gues the hardware is done...

Why don't you make the symbols your self in Photoshop? You select the symbol and the fill it with the colour you want...just an ideea.

Cris the hardware has been done a long time ago!!:P:P But just for HVAC and hazard lights for now!

You mean i should draw the symbols by my self?

That knob is digital. Its weird. It uses an encoding technique. Its got 6 "legs". My grandpa is working on figuring out how to read it. I alctually like that knob because it gives a nice feel. I also have a pushbutton

Yes, exactly what I mean. From an existing photo of the symbols you want, you select the symbol in Photoshop with the Polygonal Lasso, and after that, use the Paint Bucket Tool to fill the selection with the colour you want.
Let's take Boris's picture of the AC buttons. Of course, this was done in 30 seconds, but with a little patience you should get a perfect result. This is how I did the Ford skin for CF. Here's what I mean:

That's what I've already done with mine, but Boris's picture is much much better!!!
I haven't done ANYTHING within the last 3-4 days beacuse my psd has been destroyed

and I have some problems on coding!

PS: If anyone uses phidgets for gamma changing, rear view camera etc I can post a plugin with universal inputs/outputs!!!

Yay! Post the PSD when you get done

For this pic I used my scanner and not my digital camera. That's why all of them look great, but are not lined up horizontally.
