when 3x3x1 and 5x5x1 screens?

It works well enough as-is for my current project . I'm honestly a bit surprised they implemented it that way. Seems easier to just let the shader handle it. Now I understand why Keen has been so unkeen about adding a mirror option. Hopefully SE2 will implement it (and some other things) in a better way...

I have a plan to redo the models at some point with the rotation and all features. I just need time. :)

For info on how to set up transparent lcds for rotation and other things, Crundle's Transparent LCD Tutorial might be of interest. I'm no 3D modeler but by just reading the description I found out the gist of it is to duplicate the screen bits and rotate it while giving the dupes very specific names.

3x3?

There's another mod called "Slope LCD Panels Redux" by Copper which supports rotation, might be worth asking them how they added the option in :)

Thanks. It's probably in the terminal somewhere, however that's done. Making terminal options is something I'd like to learn how to do. I don't have a clue how to do that yet though.

I'm not sure how Keen added the rotation option. I can look into that.

Update to what Jack mentioned? Mb? Please?

I have plans to redo the models entirely. :)
I am very slammed with work and stuff now though.

Great mod! I've been hoping for angled LCDs. This has that and we can set them on their side but they're useless that way because it's missing the Rotation option to rotate the text or image orientation on the screen. It's <---that way--- or no way. Any chance of adding that option if you decide to update?

Great mod, exactly what I was looking for... almost... Any chance youd be willing to necro this post and add a "Flipped/Mirrored/Alt" version of the angled display? I was trying to make a cockpit but the windows being LCDs with info on it, like a HUD style interior.

ok, i dont know if anyone else has said anything like this. but hear me out, inverted lcd screens. kind of like how the window blocks have inverted versions so you can place them with teh tinted side either way. like that for use on control room and etc.

Is there a wide screen version?

Hope everything is going great

Thank thank thank you :-) I miss using the sloped ones

I have thought of coming back with Blender and redoing this whole mod now that I have access to the source files.
I'll see what I can do to update them to the newest system. :)

@SEMOdder4 Thanks SO MUCH for your mods! I run several of them. Just some feedback on these panels though. They don't rotate. For me it makes them mostly unusable. For example I want to use the 1x1 or the 1x2 slanted backwards in a cockpit setup so that I can see though them while flying and use the Whip Horizon mod to display the horizon indicator. It's a no-go unless these can be rotated. Hope you're still around to take a peek at this! Again, thanks for your work! MUCH appreciated!

The LCDs are also hard to read as well, i think their text is displayed in a really low resolution or something.

I gotta do the models again and I will see about rotation support sure. :)

I think it should just be a simple dummy in the model I add or a special texture but I will look into it.

I plan to redo the models and fix up the ones that are kind of clipping into the armor soon- next week or two I hope.

Got really busy with outside SE stuff to get anything done.

Maybe make the sloped 1x2 visually go to the end of the block (having a "hole" then put next to armor without an edge) and rotation support would be awesome...

I'd love a 2x2 and 2x3 and also rotation support, if possible.

Hi. Where did you find the original models?

Where you able to fix the slopped lcds. they are backwards 1x1 and 1x2 and 1x3.

Same commentary as Netherspark, could be nice to have tint on the toher side ;)

yes those who have the DLC can use the blocks, and those who don't the DLC blocks won't be selectable. :)

Some of us have the dlc and some do not, will that cause isues if the mod is installed on the server or will it simply act like existing dlc and be buildable by those of use with the dlc and just interactable by those with out?

🤔

I might just redo them in blender, so they align with the grids better.

Were you able to fixed the 2x1 slope issue?

No worries, just a suggestion! Would be nice though, especially for cockpit hud setups.

I haven't been able to look into it. 😦

The world would be a very happy place if you could rotate the text on the sloped monitors.

Would be awesome if one side could be tinted, so they could replace windows without leaving weird clear patches from the outside.

Love the mod, used it alot in my Extreme Survival series and my collection, just never used the 2x1 slopes until now

I can send you screenshots if u need on discord. I spent some time flipping them to ensure i wasnt just nutz

🤔

I'll try and fix it, will see

it shows the test on the outside of the ship now matter the side i place it

I got issue with the 2x1 sloped. No matter how i reverse it, the text is backwards on the side of my bridge/cockpit of my large grid ship. i dont have the issue with 1x1 sloped

No probs ^_^.

Ok I will see about adding that, once I get the new source files. :D

Yep.

Does the vanilla transparent ones have it? 🤔

Could we get support for the text rotation function please?

We need an inverted option, too, please! https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/pc/topic/transparent-lcd-panel-reverse
