• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Need a beacon, want a beacon

I was on the design team with Lars for his Lear 25 project, as I have real experience on the 25D. I can tell you how we made the beacon effect.

Long story short, it is a taxi light effect attached to an object that is constantly rotating behind a red lens.

Hope that helps.

If I only knew what that meant in english.....lol sorry for the sarcasm capceo, I'm just not sure how to apply that to anything :isadizzy:
 
Howzzat again? My blue collar solution was a dull red steady background with a second pulsing red in the same spot. Together they look pretty cool. Those rotating beacons always have a little scatter light so they are never completely dark. I'll give them till sunrise to answer my query then I think I'll post it. The CFG is so butchered it's hardly theirs anymore anyway.
 
Sorry all for the delays. I chose the worst time to arrange to get this out there-the Big Crash of late, so I'm waiting for things to get fixed up. I decided to use this time to make a white version and continue to refine the look over-all by adapting some other values from other fx files. Don't get too excited but it still beats a strobe look.
