• Removing crit particles
    25 replies, posted
I want to remove the crit particles the viewmodels show(victory round over, Frontier justice revenge crits, etc) The reason for so is that my computer runs the game at a slower pace with the particles up and it looks ugly anyway but I'm having a hard time finding how to A guy said to remove them I would have to replace them with a blank particle texture of the sorts, but I don't know how to get/make said blank particle/where to place it Any help would be appreciated

Crit glows aren't ugly, they serve a purpose. But you could try looking through fpsbanana or whatever
[QUOTE=Blueridge;23251207]Didn't work I think all the crit particle effect fixes got broken after engie update, which is rather odd[/QUOTE] weird, they still work for me
[QUOTE=teeheeV2;23251244]Crit glows aren't ugly, they serve a purpose.

They aren't hideous, but FJ is a bit of an eyesore after a while. What if someone shoots a Crockett, you won't know to dodge that extra bit.
-dxlevel80 ?

What if someone shoots a Crockett, you won't know to dodge that extra bit.[/QUOTE] He just wants the viewmodel effects gone. Me too aswell - I can't actually hit anyone with my revenge crits with the FJ because I lag so much.
FJ is a problem. Hurts your eyes after a while. I can't use it though, I'm shit at aing quckly
[QUOTE=Tacosheller;23251575]-dxlevel80 ?[/QUOTE] I'm on it (imo dx9 looks worse compared to dx8, less cartoonish)
[QUOTE=Blueridge;23251868]I'm on it (imo dx9 looks worse compared to dx8, less cartoonish)[/QUOTE] doesn't that remove the artistic feel of the game if it's less cartoonish? well...regardless of your tastes, the files i uploaded really should work, as they still work fine for me. and i said that dx8 would be wierd as well, since there's no glow in the first place. the mod just removes the lightning particle.

Thanks a lot ! I tried to remove the glow and the other effects myself but it resulted by a crash. But this is very good, the glow is not a problem.
Found a custom particle in my particle folder, when I got rid of it and went into a server it hung at "Sending client info" for like 20 minutes so I had to manually shut down my system
That's why you don't just delete stuff. Restore it, then edit it

Aw, it doesn't work anymore. :saddowns: Every time I join a server I get a crash and it's because of the custom particle ...
[QUOTE=Anta;23256640]Aw, it doesn't work anymore. :saddowns: Every time I join a server I get a crash and it's because of the custom particle ...[/QUOTE] again...weird. i join all kinds of sv_pure servers (0,1, and 2) and i'm always fine
Same fucking problem and i hate that there isn't any crit glow on weapons on dx8 i would remove if I didn't get confused some1 wanna bandwagoon report for dx8 glow fix and a option for the effect to be on/off ?

[QUOTE=teeheeV2;23251571]They aren't hideous[/QUOTE] They do get in the way though.
Valve should make the crits particles appear only when it's from a kritz-charge, we seriously don't need to see them in the end of a round. Also when you cap the intel on a ctf_ map.

DISCOVERY! what a nuisance. anything (old?) editing the item_fx.pcf (the files that edit the krit lightning effect) makes the game crash when taking out the wrangler with a sentry out. so my fix doesn't work, and neither does the one sgtnapalm linked. shame. perhaps an updated version will work?

Thanks, I love you!
