infohawk Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 I think thunder and lightning need to be modeled so that one out of every 3000 tanks gets damaged by it and one or more soldiers(depending on the season) get striken dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob/1 Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 No just in the back ground not hiting the men not to say that wouldn't look cool.

Vanir Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 In all seriousness, lightning in the background would be a cool effect, but in order to do it well CM would need to use dynamic lighting, which it does not. Maybe in CM2 or 3. ------------------ No, there will be no sequels.

Dittohead Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 How about headlights on the vehicles. For instance say your KT is travelling at the speed of light and you turn the headlight on, do you see anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 rob cool idea, maybe in cm2 or somewhere down the road bts can use shaders like q3 shaders are textures built up in stages, each stage being a bmp image that manupulates the shader somehow, like reflection, light, masking etc each stage is controlled by keywords that are typed into the shaders individual script this would allow for animated skies with layers of clouds for different heights and I could imagine another layer as lightening that strikes every once in a while at a random spot and the light reflects off everything with a reflecting shader nearby only drawback is that each polygram, which is a surface of an object, that has a shader has to be redraw by the computer once for each stage, which eats alot of memory and you know what lightning could also just be a sprite that comes down like artilery if it strikes somewhere on the map hehe, seen that happen many a time in populous with my kaka shaman damn cool idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 Ditto, it depends on the camoflage. I think by the time CM2 comes out we will be amazed at how far graphics have advanced and what the game will be capable of. Or not. ------------------ No me llamo Samuel, me llamo Pedro!

IntelWeenie Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 Anyone know what background .wav gets played during rain? Make a new one with thunder sounds. Lightning I could do without.

Hiram Sedai Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 I'm still amazed at the bomber runs and the shadow that you see on the ground when the plane attacks.

Steve Clark Posted September 7, 2000 Share Posted September 7, 2000 So this is the thread that got Rob/1 in a hissy-fit. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>but dose there have to be thunder if its raining?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Absolutely not. Lightning (and its sound resulting in thunder) is typically associated with convection-type storms or where there is a certain temperature difference between the upper and lower air lofts. It is common to have rainstorms without lightning just as it is to have lightning without rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
