What's a jejeje and a jajaja?

Also, the beam looks much better when you're actually ingame.

jejeje and jajaja is the way spanish people laugh on the web. You say LOL they say jaja. I met a spanish girl on the web and she used to laugh like that in msn.

but if this is change this will to able for crash the game?
As much as Replacing Goku with a different model crashes ^^

I'd like to see bloom in ESF. Like in Mechmod or better :) . Click My Sig!!! RAWR!!!
Si you want something that halves your FPS?

If you had 100 now youll have 50 with that bloom. It uses 2 frames to show 1.

Either way, bloom would probably kill fps for those who don't have powerful enough gear. But if the devs wanted I suppose they could and make it a cvar.

There could also be an option to turn it on in the options menu though. Even if it's added or not, they should be off by default.

dj-ready just stated that its possible and it wont affect FPS.
Now I would like to know if maybe bloom effect is a possible candidate for the upcoming FX script feature...

The Bloom you're talking about, is like glowing colours right? or is it like a shining fog?

Im pretty sure its when light sources have an increased amount of gamma to give it the impression that they're actually glowing...
something like HL2's HDR.

It's bad enough with some maps having brightly colored skyboxes, why make it worse by adding bloom?

Yeah I understand what it is now. It is good to hide some imperfections of map and characters.

I think it would look cool on ESF's energy attacks and auras. O:

I imagine that's what its for no?
Maybe it could be rigged to work only for beam attacks and explosions and the like.

If it compromises FPS that much that it wont worth it.
