Topic: Custom Flags

[amaraarchitects]

How can I update the flags that come with lumion. I need to input other flags than those available. Can we edit the content files (*.cgr, *.inn)
Appreciate any help. Thanks
Charly

Hi Charly, it is currently not possible to change the flag textures.

Thanks for the reply Morten.
Pity we can't do that. I hope we will do this in the near future.

If we needed a Basic Color Flag would that be something Lumion to add I really need to show different generic Flags by colors?

Unfortunately not, lcollier2459.

Not being able to add a custom diffuse map to a Lumion flag really renders all the Lumion flags useless for me. My projects will typically require a US flag, State flag, and Company/Institution flag. I'm not going to put a Lumion US flag next to the other custom flags. So, the Lumion flag ends up being useless.

It's a shame the Lumion design team can't figure out how to provide a generic flag with a custom diffuse channel. Seriously, how hard is that?

[Morten]

Thanks for your feedback, darbo.

It's not about how hard it is, but rather what the developers think is most important at any given moment.

Right now, they are fixing errors in 3.1, so that 3.1.1 can be released as soon as possible.

I am in the same place where we can't use the great Lumion Flags because I can't create a State or Company Flag.  So I have all of these wonderful animated objects with static flags.

To me it isn't a HUGE wow, but it would be extremely useful, we have a bollavard of flags I wanted to be waving different colors for a company and now can't. 

Please consider I think it would bring great flexibility.
