QUESTION i want to make a compass with a display

[Diego Da Rocha]

I have a mesh of a little display and i really want to make it show the degrees the car its looking at, i saw at
https://github.com/ac-custom-shaders-patch/acc-extension-config/wiki/Cars-–-Instruments-inputs
that there is an input for it, but my problem is i have 0 experiencies with digital instruments, so i don't know how to do it :/ any help?

this will only work with CustomShadersPatch, not with vanilla AC, when you put this in the cars CSP config
(whether "carname\extension\ext_config.ini" or as "carname.ini" in extension\config\cars\loaded\)
[ITEM_...]
NAME = MESHNAME_of_your_item
TYPE_EXT = CONDITION_TEXT
INPUT = COMPASS
see here for formating options

Srry i'm so noob on this, what you mean by CONDITION_TEXT? The font? and i don't need any other parameter?

CONDITION_TEXT is a keyword, indicating the type of display for csp, so keep that
as text: CONDITION_TEXT, it will only show "N or "NW" or something like that.
NAME=should be the meshname
No, you probably dont need other params, if you want a compass-needle, this will be more complicated.

I setup the extension file like it and still doesn't work, i need to setup something on digital_instruments?
