rain and fog for MP1 SoA

[talisa]

thanx for the comment ironwarfare, glad you like the rain for episode1

and yeah, i might add fog too later, adding fog is extremely simple compared to rain cuz it only needs a single line of code instead of tons of lines.

after im done with episode 3 too i will start adding different versions with rain plus fog for people who like to have fog added too

[IronWarfare]

I would like to experiment with fog too if it's easy. Especially on Zerstorer. I'm sure with fog, some levels will look scary as hell (especially the second one where you are in the cemetery)

[talisa]

look at first post in this thread, near the bottom of the post is a link to sevens thread with tutorials how to do it

[NightFright]

Hmmm, I can't download the updated HIP2M2 file right now, Megaupload doesn't want. x.x

[talisa]

@nightfirst
hmm strange, when i try the link it says too that the file is currently unavailable

i will change to mediafire from now on, i have an account there and mediafire is lot nicer, files stay available indefinitely and always fast speeds and no waiting times, and no BS with only being able to download one file at a time

@seven
you know, as unlikely as your idea for the ash in HIP2M3 sounded.... it actually works that way
thanx a lot for the idea, it allowed me to add ash to the part at start and also to another part in the same level with just one block each and saved me lots of braincracking



ive updated all the links in the first post of the thread with links to mediafire instead of megaupload
and cuz HIP2M3 is also done now, ive also added a link for that one

which means..... episode 2 is also done now
so ive also made a pk3 for episode 2 too for easy use
added link for episode2 complete too to first post of the thread

@Splitterface
Please read your PM�s

btw:
great work so far!!

[gdiddy62]

Thanks for all your work so far. I'm really enjoying playing this mission pack again with all of these bells and whistles!

[NightFright]

Splitterface,
Regarding that HIP2M2 fix... are you sure you uploaded the right file? I am still seeing the glitch ingame, and actually as far as I can see, the values inside the ent file are still the same.

[talisa]

lol you're right, my bad, thought i had packed the fixed version but i accidentially re-uploaded the old version

fixed the link in first post to the new version with fixed ash

and ive also immediately uploaded a new pk3 for episode2 with the fixed HIP2M2

[NightFright]

Grand. In the meantime, might have found something else, this time in HIP2M3:

After you enter the blue key door and go all the way to the right, you will come to a room with impaling spear traps. When you enter that room, a niche outside (behind you) will open, revealing some enemies. The roof of that room is open and rain should fall through. However, it doesn't seem to happen right now.

[talisa]

ah yes, thanx for the tip nightfright, didnt notice that window cuz i never looked up in that room

and while investigating i also found that apparently in the room with the impaling spikes there is also a window up in the cetner of the room which i never noticed.
but got a good excuse for never looking up there, cuz you'll be dead if you stand still

thanx again for telling me i missed that ceiling-window

ill fix them later today. busy gaming right now, but ill fix it once i get bored with the game im playing now


( btw the map you found the missing rain in is HIP2M4, not HIP2M3 )

[NightFright]

Oh yeah, well I am advancing too fast with playing through good old SoA again, I guess. Well, you even found more missing stuff by yourself this way, very good. ^^

*EDIT*
HIP2M5 checked out, seems fine. Great work so far, can't wait to have a look at ep.3 with rain! *.*

[talisa]

just added rain at the spots which i accidentially overlooked in HIP2M4
updated the first post in thread with the fixed .ent file for HIP2M4

and also immediately took the effort to update the episode2 pk3 to include the fixed HIP2M4



ill start work on episode3 soon too, maybe even tomorrow already if i feel like it

[talisa]

surprise.... instead of starting tomorrow i already started today on episode 3
and i just made HIP3M1 a bit ago

the leaking at start at the roof is known, and sadly it cannot be solved...
its caused by the fact the roof of the 'house' at start is so extremely thin
i tried keeping it to a minimum by letting it rain a bit less hard but some leakage is sadly unavoidable....


anyways.... i present to you: HIP3M1


( link like usual in first post of this thread )

Nice work! If there are problems with the rain trespassing through the floor, snow is the solution! ;D
