Lua tools addons

Post #1by xenohazard » 30.08.2011, 08:06

I have been unable to inatall and run the Lua tools addon pack. I have tried several times, following the install instructions in the luaedtools1 and luaedtoolsaddons readme files. Could not find anything similar on this forum. Is my problem unique or are the readme files wrong. I am new to copying and pasting code. Any help you could give would be great.

Thanks

-put the file "cockpitBox.lua" into "...\lua_edu_tools\tools"
-open the file "config.lua" within the folder "...\lua_edu_tools" and add the lines as described in picture "config_lua.jpg"
-open the file "toolBox.lua" inside the folder "...\lua_edu_tools\utils" and add the line as described in picture "toolBox_lua.jpg"
-put the "*.png" image "cockpit.png" into "...lua_edu_tools\images"
Start Celestia and choose "Cockpit" in the Lua_Edu_Tools menue. Enjoy.

->if you can't find a file "cockpit.png" in your folder "...\lua_edu_tools\images" and/or a Cockpit selection box ("cockpitBox.lua") isn't available in your
Lua-Edu-Tools please read Vincent's tutorial first...

alternatively you can download my "Cockpit.zip" add-on here (description and the "cockpitBox.lua"-file inside):

If you want to use more than one Cockpit overlay I recomment a very good script written by Jogad. You can find it here...
