Sniper contrail

Post by csnow »

How can i remove the contrail from the sniper rifle? I have changed the point generation rate down to 0 from 250. Will that do it? I still seem to see it a bit in game. I am modding for a friends dedicated server (vegas_assasins) and they want to have no contrails on one of the maps so they can have stealthy sniping. Any help would be appreciated. I found out pretty fast that I couldnt just null out the bitmap for it.. lol.. exception.

HHT does not work for everyone.

Use HMT instead.

That is all I remember for my Halo 1 PC modding daysXD

Like pepsi said, it is client side. What you can do is extract the bitmap and then black out the alpha channel. This should make the bitmap totally transparent in game. You also might be able to swap the contrail dependency with that of cryro glass. The latter would be easier, but might turn up an exception. I can't remember.
