Ok, I'm making a disco for a map I'm making, and I want to make floor smoke. You know, you push a button and smoke rolls in over the floor? Well, I'm having difficulty. Should I use env_steam? All those particles make my video card scream. I'm not sure if the average PC could render that. I'm looking for: -A good effect -Something easy to render Is there anyone that can help me out here?
func_smokevolume.
Can it be toggled by a func button?
I think so
I can't seem to find any output from func_button to turn it off.
Use onPressed smokevolname toggle :) If of course, the volume has the toggle input.
Toggle? that both turns it on and off. Or "disable" or something similar we need a ninja rating XD
There is no toggle input for the smoke volume.
Alright just a moment Ah. you cant toggle it. but you can set the density. so what you want is: onoutput-smokevolume-setdensity with a parameter override of (your density) to toggle on, and a PO of (0) to turn off
I don't know any dance clubs that have a smoke machine on the floor. Most that I go to have it mounted above head height and shoot the smoke down into the crowd. Make a particle system for this. [editline]12:33PM[/editline] Just go out on one Saturday night and take some pictures of a local one to give you reference.
