The Launch Control User Preferences can be used to alter certain behaviour in the Add-on.

Interface

Animation Gallery

Shows or Hides the Gallery with the preset animations in the Add-on UI.

Slider Labels

Shows or Hides Labels above all the Animation and Setup Sliders above the Vehicle inside the 3D View.

Animation

Custom Library (LC Pro Only)

Add a path to a Custom Animation Preset Library on your System or Network. Animation Presets can then be saved and loaded from this location.

Use Imperial Units

Uses “MPH” instead of “KMH” for the Speedometer and the Jump Trajectory.

Speed Segments

Show Hotkeys

Show the Hotkey table in the 3D Viewport

Auto Convert Timeline into Graph Editor

Allow LC to automatically turn your timeline into a graph editor when the Speed Segment Tool is activated. This makes sure that you can preview and debug the animation curve while using the Speed Segments in the viewport

Max Frames

Limit the max amount of frames the Speed Segments will allow animating across. Increasing this might drastically decrease performance!

Key Movement Increments

Performance Optimization: Move Speed Keyframes in the 3D viewport in increments of this value. Higher values increase performance but decrease precision

Target FPS

Performance Optimization: Throttle FPS to allow smooth updates when moving the Speed Keys

Handle Undo

Performance Optimization: Disabled undos for Speed Segment operations to improve performance.

Physics

Show PostFX (Physics Overdrive) with Live Physics

Allow PostFX (Physics Overdrive) to be changed while using the Live Physics in LC

Rigging

Automatic Tire Pivot

Let LC automatically create new pivots for the tire meshes used for rigging. The new pivots will override any user set pivots. Uncheck to keep user pivots.

Garage Transform

Set the vehicle Transforms you want LC to use when entering ‘Garage Mode’

Custom Tags

Allow the user to define custom search tags that LC will search for when rigging the car.

Rig Brakes

Force, Skip or Rig only if possible. Set this to “Force” if the brake calipers do not get rigged!

Rig Headlights

Rig only if possible or Never.

Rig Wheel Covers (Fenders for F1 Vehicles)

Force, Skip or Rig only if possible. Set this to “Force” if the objects do not get rigged!

Quick Tag Rename

Select what the Quick Tag Tool should rename when using before rigging

Note

Remember to “Save Preferences” before exiting.
