Dashboard editor

In the dashboard editor you can edit the positions of various parts of the dashboard, or switch some gauges or lights on or off.

Choosing the dashboard type

In the Vehicle Editor open the Textures tab. Beside the word CLOCKS you can click to select the dashboard type. This strange looking name, e.g. s_clock_formula is actually a specially named live texture that you can enter in 'page' mode in the Modeller, as a texture page either for the main object or a subobject.

To select a different dashboard type, click the s_clock_ button and pick the one that fits your car mod.

Editing the dashboard

To edit the selected dashboard, click the EDIT button.

It is a good idea to switch off any lights or gauges you don't need.
