Bimmer Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I like what you're doing with photo-realistic flame effects in the game, but I feel I have to mention that the shape of the muzzle flash in CMBN is wrong. The vast majority of WWI-era small arms had no flash hiders or muzzle brakes to shape the flash by directing the exiting gasses. Thus the flash should be a sort of cloud of flame extending forward from the muzzle, not the star-shaped flash with the majority extending perpendicular to the muzzle. Don't know how much that matters to you, but I thought I should mention it if you're after maximum realism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjkerner Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Already diownloaded. But, are you doing a new version re Bimmer's comments? Not sure he/we can shape the flash with an alpha channel or if the flash is a 3D model that we are stuck with, like trying to put realistic camo on a helmet that is basically modelled "flat". Those default flashes look like a direct import from CMSF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coon Dog Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 This is what it looks like with muzzleflash reshaped and reduced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Not sure if that's just a digital or an actual mod. If it's a mod it would be welcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coon Dog Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 It's Drakenlorde's mod, i just modded the muzzleflash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Well, if that is more accurate of the WW2 weapons, that's excellent. Will you upload it to Repository? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakenlorde Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 Okay, I followed Bimmer's advice and did a little modification to it. I just hid the whole star flash with an alpha so it's invisible. Take a look: I just update it on Greenasjade but its still not accepted on Repository. http://cmmods.greenasjade.net/mods/4612/details 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimmer Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Good stuff. Probably a bit small by real world standards, but then again anything too big would likely look cartoonish in-game. BTW, a quick Google search will turn up photos of muzzle flash from various WWII-era weapons if you'd like to see what the real thing looks like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakenlorde Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 Yeah, I know. I did look some pictures and they are normally 3-5 times bigger than in game's but I can't find how to change the size of the flash. I tried raising the file resolution but it doesn't change anything, the muzzle flash is resized by the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
