smokey power up stuff

demonfire · Oct 10, 2003

I have 2 questions:

1:You know when you power up and that smoke like stuff appears arround you? What file(.spr, .mdl ect.) has to do with that?

2: There is also a sprite called power up that i realized is usually transparent. The problem is no matter what you do to that sprite, it always makes an ugly sphere!

So, im thinking that if i edit the smoke-like thing, it wouldn't make a sphere.

Can you please tell me wat the name of the file is for question 1? and if theres a better way to make powering up not be a sphere always. Im trying to make a sort of lighting affect, or a spikey aura. Thanks in advance!

Don't know but nice Idea. I agree that some animations should be spiced up a bit

1) dust1.spr and dust2.spr

2) That sphere is stored in "models/powerupaura.wrl" Milkshape should beable to import / export wrl models...

Have fun and good luck ^_^

Hello? Anyone Gonna Answer My Question

demonfire · Oct 17, 2003

Im sorry, i must have worded it wrong! Im talking about the steam-like stuff that rises fromt the ground up, not the dusttrails. Ya know what im talking about, the grainy evaporation-like sprite when powering up. For example, when you power up in the sky while flying, you see that stuff, not the dust that surrounds you when swooping! Please, i beg of you! Tell me what the file name for that sprite is, NOT DUST1.SPR OR DUST2.SPR! I just cant figure out which one it is!

This has been suggested in the past, and i can't exactly remember the answer but it was something like -
a.) It would be too hard to make - or
b.) Isn't possible to do on the halflife engine

Besides, the aura has been immensly improved for the next beta (1.2) so just wait for it.
