DSM
First tests of my lighting mod — Dynamic Sirens Manager (DSM) 👀🔥
Hey friends! I recorded a quick video from my alpha build tests. There is no game sound because I always code and test while listening to my own music, so just ignore that, lol.
In this video, I'm showing how the emergency lights can be configured in real-time right through the in-game menu.
What the mod can already do:
- Automatically detects all emergency lights installed on the vehicle (it doesn’t matter if it’s a vanilla car or an add-on/replaced model).
- Allows you to customize the flashing patterns however you want. In the video, I'm randomly clicking through different options and step grids to show how the rhythm and speed of the flashes change.
- The step grid can be expanded indefinitely to create very long and beautiful light waves. Honestly, my own imagination is just not enough to show you something truly crazy, lol.
- The color and size of the coronas change on the fly — you can tweak the RGB palette right in the game.
I also showcased a couple of saved setups that I spent some time pre-configuring earlier. My point is, you can customize the pattern absolutely any way you like to suit your taste.
Don’t worry too much about me switching the modes with a mouse right now. It's still in the early testing phase, and in the future, you will be able to switch siren stages on the fly using hotkeys while driving. But let's not get ahead of ourselves, or I'll end up writing a wall of text again, lol.
