[1/4 Life]

You fellas need some 1-week shaders?

[QUOTE=GameDev;27964750]Anyone? I need help :saddowns:[/QUOTE]

Change texturescrollangle to -90.

[QUOTE=FlameCow;27966477]Thank you very much! I find it hard to believe that people actually like what I make.

Do you have any idea of what I can add to the legs to make them look less bland?[/QUOTE]

Grippy Toes?

Working on a map that will hopefully make good use of the jet packs. The team's bases are very WIP and blocky right now but I got the basic layout.

Looks cool, keep it up.

Updated my map in SVN. Check it out

[JLea]

ugh valve you give me a headache. Even after applying that fix, I can only get particles to run on the client which means I'll have to make shared classes for everything :/

[editline]10th February 2011[/editline]

Cool. Coding in CTF + generators + forcefields = 3 hours.
Getting a simple particle system working = 4 hours and counting.

Thanks gaben

[editline]10th February 2011[/editline]

I'm going out now, but here's the latest build uploaded to the SVN.

Flags now have a particle effect emitting around them.
Shields now have a separate impact FX.
Particle spam fixed w/ more than 1 player.

BUGS:

flag particles are always red
when capping the flag, the text will always say "blue team capped" (dunno why, the score addds to the normal teams)
there's still audio spam when more than 2 players.

Have fun, guys!

[The Vman]

Is it possible to make them any other color than red?

[1/4 Life]

[QUOTE=The Vman;27968257]Is it possible to make them any other color than red?[/QUOTE]

Yes, there's convars to control both passes.

What's the hammer config for the mod? My map is broken if no-one has noticed. :/

[b]EDIT:[/b]

Nvm, found the problem. Correcting now. Update svn's in about ten minutes.

What kind of background are we going to have?

[Zay333]

I guess I should post some shitty weapon concept art before I post my map progress.
If anyone would like to make 3D models of it,I would be more then happy drawing a more detailed and proper picture of it.

Heres a picture of the map that I'm making the arrows in the picture shows where the trigger_push pushes:

Make use of my push block prefab guys!

Stick a couple in your map..

WIP jetpack.
It's designed to go with movement more readily than other particles, it looks pretty thick here, but when moving around it should leave a nice looking fire trail, rather than the BWOARRRRR you see here.
I'd need to get it ingame to tweak it to look best though, it still needs some visual improvement.
Not sure on smoke.

[.FLAP.JACK.DAN.]

Smoke usually doesn't appear when fire is moving at that rate. Look at a torch for instance.

[icemaz]

Moddb page is up go check it out. On my phone so just look for 1Week.

[3mpty]

A bit more work:

[IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/516743/particles/jetpack_motion.png[/IMG]

Got it moving in the editor :D

I don't like how sparse the fire is, I'll look into making it look more thick but not ridiculous.

[QUOTE=GameDev;27964750]Anyone? I need help :saddowns:[/QUOTE]

270 or -90, 0 is right.

Pretty happy with this, it doesn't look that great in screencap form, but in motion it's pretty nice.

[GoldenBullet]

video? I'm curious

[3mpty]

I'd need to get fraps or something, you can't really record them that easily :(

[.FLAP.JACK.DAN.]

Could try source recorder?

[3mpty]

I'd need it ingame first :(

[editline]11th February 2011[/editline]

I'm gunna work on an explosion of some kind.
It's hard to make an explosion look futuristic, but I have an idea.

I tried taking screenshots of the explosion but it just doesn't work, everything looks wrong when screencapped :(
Dammit I'm installing fraps and I'll put this stuff on YT.

[~ZOMG]

Have you guys considered some futuristic remakes of old weapons?

Like the Thompson in Futurama or Fallout: New Vegas.

[3mpty]

The explosion is pretty much just a grenade that for no apparent reason implodes on itself after it explodes.

That means it's futuristic :v:
