Hi,
Thanks for the prompt reply !
Your explanations clarify a lot. The add-on plates I was referring to were actually mine : there are not many, if not any, available licence plates based on real-life U.S. federal agencies out there. So I have decided to design them on my own, and considering the lack of public licence plates of this type, I had the project to publish them ! The project had quite hitten a stall when I realised that there were no modifications that would allow the formats of each add-on plate to be directly edited, so I am glad that the next version will include this feature !
And just to be sure, when you wrote :
Does this mean that the next version of the script will be able to reference plate textures as defined in the carcols.ymt file ? Or do they have to follow a specific naming pattern — i.e. plate06, plate07, and so forth — as you wrote it ? For example my custom plates will probably follow a naming pattern like NLF_Plate_Agency (GSA, DOJ, DOI &c).
Please apologise if my understanding of your explanations is incorrect ; English is not my native language so there might be a bit of a language barrier.
Anyway, good luck with the development of the next version ! And thanks again for your reply !
Hi,
This looks like a very promising modification ! Perhaps the only one of its kind, apart from Venoxity's implementation of the concept.
As far as I understand — and please correct me if I am wrong —, the modification allows the license plates to be configured either per vehicle class or per plate, the two methods being exclusive. Considering this, I was wondering whether or not it would be possible to use the per plate configuration method for add-on plates ? Is the set of customisable plates defined in the script code itself, or is it then editable via the .ini file ? I have several add-on plates from various U.S. agencies, and each one requires a specific formatting.
Thanks for your time !
