ATS/ETS2 Local Radio

[Mahonski]

Thank you, Koen for local radio! But it really don't work together with Smooth Interior Camera v2.0.
It's very important as it smoothly centers the cameras and has presets for me.
Is there a way to avoid program conflicts?

The error is that the simulator crashes when you press some hot keys on the local radio (it crashes either silently or with an error).

I am not familiar with it, but my guess would be to disable the overlay.

More details, please.

In the video below, a small example of how the cameras work smoothly.
The main thing for me is the smooth centering of the camera by pressing one button.
But you can, for example, hold the button to turn your head, and release the button to get smooth centering.

@Mahonski you need to Press pageup or pagedown key right after loading screen in ets2 then it works after that.

@woniu
Thank you, sir.

I have ATS but it that doesn't matter. I got it on the 10th try
I had to reassign devices and keys for that (buttonbox). In the process of this, there were errors, the radio did not answer at all (all keyboard and controller keys). Maybe I pressed these keys somewhere wrong.
But now it seemed to work. I need to test it tomorrow, I hope I don't have to constantly reassign keys.

@Mahonski What I meant with disabling the overlay is that in the settings.json file there is a line that says "overlay": true; you can change that to false. This is the overlay that shows up when you change stations. However, I gather from the follow-up message that that does not seem to be the issue.

Like I said, I am not familiar with Smooth Interior Camera, nor am I particularly interested in it either as I use headtracking. Local Radio uses trickery to work, I assume Smooth Interior Camera does as well, and I would not be surprised if that clashes.

@Koen actually disabling overlay fixes crashing. So it is something with overlay..

Thank you @Koen for this awesome mod. Makes it so much more realistic.

One question, is it possible to write some bat file or something to start your mod + open the website in one step when starting the game?

I´m not as good in doing something like that so that i can´t do it by myself.

[Koen]

Probably, but that's not my forte either. I'd assume something like (untested):

Code: Select all

ETS2 Local Radio.exe
chrome http://localhost:8330

(As a .cmd, not a .bat)

You might have to add a delay between the two if the browser starts to quickly.

[BlueG6o]

ok thank you, i´ll try it later.

For those where the app crashed on Android 12 - it should now work. New permission models are always a joy.

Hi!
I encountered a problem with the mod. The server URL seems to be wrong - I can't launch the mod in any of my browsers. It says that the waiting for connection was too long. I've noticed the issue about a week ago, waited for it to be fixed, but unfortunately nothing happened. Did your server's address change?
