OHM Spotlight 2

Can this be attached to a building for example, or is it only for vessels?.

If the building is in the scenario file then yes. For example, prelude bases work if UCD is used.

Kendo said:
Also presumably it is scenario related, so I cant add it directly to Brighton Beach.

You can if it's a building declared in the scenario.

Kendo · May 1, 2013

Thanks Garyw, you have been a great help. So would the building would need an attachment point?

Donamy · May 1, 2013

Only if you need it above the ground.

Anyone have problems with using Spotlight2 with the D3D9Client version R12? All my attempts to use Spotlight2 in D3D9 results in CTD (scenario to be posted later).

P.S. The original Spotlight add-on does work.

Bumping this for feedback.

Hi,
I only use the standard Orbiter 2010-P1, so not sure I can help much. Any clues in your orbiter.log? Can you post the scenario?

Take the Spotlight2 test scenario included in the add-on for example:

Hmm, just given a quick look at the D3D9 forum thread - looks like it could be something to do with use of oapiMeshMaterial() in the code.

If you have a minute, try the replacement module attached to this post, let me know if it works.

Thanks,
Brian

Donamy · Nov 20, 2013

Maybe a stupid question, but have you tried eliminating some of the other modules you are using?

Kendo · Nov 20, 2013

If you are asking if this works with 2010P1 and D3D9 version 12, then YES it does. It works fine for me using the original download and the included test scenario.

Cosmic Penguin · Nov 21, 2013

OK it seems that re-downloading the add-on and re-installing fixed whatever the problem was. Thanks!

Cosmic Penguin · Apr 11, 2015

Hmm this add-on seems to be not working again under D3D9client R15....can someone report if the default testing scenario works?

Works fine for me (as long as you don't go internal view of spotlight - but then, why would you!

)

Hi,
as requested, here is a version of "Spotlight2" compiled for use with Orbiter Beta build v.151119.
View attachment spotlight2_orb_beta_151205.zip
Unzip into your Orbiter Beta folder as usual.
Cheers,
BrianJ

Thank You!
In meantime I found out that SLC 41 from LRO addon works with all lights (turning on automatically) in new BETA.

Updated on OH
Re-compiled for compatibility with Orbiter2016 v160828

Does it still work in orbiter 2010 too?

Afraid not, you'll need to keep hold of the older version if you want to use it with Orbiter2010.

I recommend that you leave the Orbiter 2010 version as a separate d/l on O-H.

Orbiter 2024 has been released!
