Space effect

Post by [users]platesofpaper »

I want to make a space mod on Lockout. I can do most of it, I just want it to have the space effect like the one on Cairo Station (when you go outside the space station). Does anyone know how I would get this effect in a multiplayer map?

Well, when you go outside, it loades and changes to bsp, and when you go back inside, it loades again, swaitching the bsp. So I don't think it would be possible to only have that affect underwater. But there is a way to have that effect in a certain bsp. I'm not quiet sure, but I think it's like trying to add weather to a map with no weather. The space affect it part of the bsp, you just have to find where it is, unless it's already refrenced under one of the tags. Then you would just have to find it and then transfere it over to your map and find a way to put it in. I'll open up that SP map with this 'space affact' in it and see what I can do (I know I said this last time too, but i was too lazy to do anything then).

I think the filtered sound is just a sound environment tag(snde) isn't it?

I'm not sure about the low gravity...

Thanks for your help, and about the low gravity: I could acheive the same effect by changing the jump height.

It might be i na diff part of the map. I think I've looked through the sounds, but idk.

EDIT: I found something in the [effe] tag. It says:
effects\scenery\solids\zero_gravity_human_objects_sucked

Is that what I'm looking for?

i derno if thats what ur lookin for but i got somethin in my insolence, i was messing around with bipd's and i found

Max soft landing time

Max Hard landing time

Min hard landing velocity

max hard landing velocity

i changed them all to a high number and it feels as if im on Cairo station. i also got it so that if u get beatdown the person u hit will fly back 6-7 feet i think i got most of the stuff..like even when someone shoots you you start scoching back slowly,then faster i think ive got mostve of it DOWN

What I really want, though, is the muffled sound.
