Darkplaces Particle Flames

[seanstar]

hello


ive wanted particle flames since i think tomazquake...i had the idea for darkplaces when i found this post by Chip where he posted effect info settings for fire.


its wasnt easy to creat the effects but after lots of testing the flames now look almost real...with Sevens ideas helping me along the way


these flames are using particles from the hd particlefont i uploaded from nexuiz

I like them! Much more realistic than the one on Seven's Small Mod Compilation..

[gdiddy62]

EXCELLENT! What would we do without you and Seven sprucing Quake up all of the time??!! Looking forward to this.

Yes Sean that is sic !!!!
We are going to have to change your name to :
Pornstar.

Looks really nice but i bet it brings the fps down.

[osjclatchford]

my thoughts exactly...

[seanstar]

the fps drop is very minimal.


and they look great now that i made my own color setting


i only need one effect for the flame


you can disable the sparks and smoke...so the fps drop is almost nothing.


dont forget the game is also not rendering the sprites or flame models in place.

Thank you very much, Sean! You rock (as usual

Oops... after placing progs.dat into the id1 folder, I received this crash message when tried to start game.

[FC Zvyozdochka]

Picture is low quality, so I type this message:
Loaded maps/start.ent
PRVM_ED_ParceEpair: can't find function rain_think in server
Host_Error: PRVM_ED_ParceEdict: parse error

I use DP 29-06-2011 build.

BTW, is there a way to save game messages in a log file?
----
Sean, your new FX are in conflict with DP rain option. Everything works right when disabling rain options in the *.ent files.

[DaniOcampo1992]

That's because Sean's progs.dat doesn't support rain and snow..

oh my, this is what i've been waiting for. proper flames. but then i was told that it's incompatible with seven's small mod complilation. never mind the other effects, but i really have to use that for the nail position fix.

hope you guys can work something out. at least for the flames and nail position to work.
