Ailantd - Ailantd made the first bubbles MOD but it looked like High Preasure air leak above water.

08/10/2012 v0.0.2b
- Updated Bubble Particle Generators for Type-VIIA, VIIB, VIIC, VIIC41
- Fixed six bubble pattern by changing Material used to Bubble_01 (Single Bubble)
- Decreased Velocity to slow bubble rise speed
- Decreased Bubble Size
- Increased Bubble Size Variation
- Changed Start time to various delays for a more random bubble effect
- Varied Max Particals
- Varied Partical Creation
- Adjustied Size Overlife settings
8/31/2012 v0.0.3
- Decreased Bubble Particle Size
- Increase Particle Opacity
- Increased Max Particles
- Increased Particle Creation
- Decreased Particle Creation Variation
- Decreased Particle Velocity
- Decrease Particle Weight
- Increase Particle Weight Variation
- Created new "data\Textures\TNormal\tex\Bubble_01.dds" texture to decrease opacity.
9/4/2012
- Merged Sub Bubbles and 3D Deck Splash Mod's.
- Created "data\Library\EUF_Submarine_FX.dat" for Controller Optimization.
- Optimized Particle Controllers by using ObjectCtrlsRef control.
9/5/2012
- Merged Snorkel Exhaust for Equipment Upgrade Fixes
- Merged Snorkel Wake for Equipment Upgrade Fixes
- Merged Snorkel Splash for Equipment Upgrade Fixes
- Reduced Bubble Creation from 800 to 70
- Adjusted Bubble Life variation to Zero. All 70 particles are generated at same sime.
- Adjusted Bubble Weight variation so some bubble rise faster then others.
9/20/2012
- Adjust Max Particles for Bubbles
- Increadced Bubble Creation to 100
- Added 2nd Bubble FX
7/2/2014 v0.0.4
- Increase Creation Rate
- Set Creation Variation to Zero
- Increases Particle Life
8/15/2014 v0.0.5
- Made may adjustments to the Bubble Particle Generators.
- Made a few small changes to 3D Deck Splash
- Added GR2 Bones to VIIC for Dive Bubbles. These bubbles run once and stop until next surface dive.
- Added GR2 Bones to VIIB for Torpedo Launch Bubbles
- Tried making Torpedo Launch sequence but nothing to show yet.
4/11/2016 v0.0.6
- Made new Bubble DDS image
- Added new Dive Bubble Bones to the ~FX.GR2
- Added new Dive Bubble Generator FX that Stop several seconds after initial Dive.
- Reduze Bubble Partical Size and increased Bubble Partical Size Variation.
- Small change to Deck Splash Partical Generator Speed Control.
- Changed Sober's original Deck Gun Splash
- Adjusted Exhaust Smoke from Snorkel.
- Added Exhaust Smoke to Submarine.
- Fixed Type VIIA Bubbles.
5/1/2016 v0.0.6c
- Renamed data\Submarine\NSS_UBoat7a\NSS_Uboat7a.fx.fx to correct name of NSS_Uboat7a.fx
11/23/2016 v0.0.6d
- Create file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c\NSS_Uboat7c.fx to maintain standard naming convention.
- - Moved content of file NSS_Uboat7c.FX.fx to new file NSS_Uboat7c.fx
- - Remove old file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c\REMOVE.NSS_Uboat7c.FX.f x so FX to prevent possible CTD.
- Adjusted Exhaust Smoke FX reducing Max Particles and Particle Generation rate.
- Adjusted Exhaust Smoke FX GenericSpeed Controller so particle generation increases as speed increases.
- - This was set to full particle generation rate in prior versions for testing.
- Increased the size of all Bubbles.
- Increased the verical velocity of all Bubbles so Bubbles rise a little faster.
- Decreased the Particle Weight for all Bubbles so Bubbles accelerate a little as the rise toward surface.
- Increased Radom Bubble generation rate.
- Decreased Bubble Max Particles.
- Set Particle Generation Variable Rate to Zero(0) to prevent bubble turning into a stream of bubbles rather the a group.
- Created Demo Picture to illistrate these changes.
11/27/2016 v0.0.6e
- Enabled Dive Bubbles in files data\Library\EUF_Submarine_FX.dat, .sim
- - These bubbles start when you first dive and run until each Particle Generator has made 15000 bubbles.
- - Because the Generator is Run Stop effect I need a Effects Launcher Controller linked to Crash Dive.
- Edited file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7a\NSS_Uboat7a_FX.GR2 adding FX_Dive_Bubbles_xx and Exhaust Bones.
- Enabled Left/Right Sides Exhaust Particle Generators on the Type-VIIA,B,C,C41.
- Created Halo Lights - RED - YELLOW - BLUE - GREEN
- - Enabled these lights in MOD Room_QR1, not good. So much fog, Imagine a Diso full of Rustafarians billowing smoke.
12/10/2016 v0.0.6e
- Finished editing GR2 files.
- - Edited file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7b\NSS_Uboat7b_FX.GR2 adding FX_Dive_Bubbles_xx and Exhaust Bones.
- - Edited file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c\NSS_Uboat7c_FX.GR2 adding FX_Dive_Bubbles_xx and Exhaust Bones.
- - Edited file data\Submarine\NSS_Uboat7c41\NSS_Uboat7c41_FX.GR2 adding FX_Dive_Bubbles_xx and Exhaust Bones.
- Finished Enabling Dive Bubble Particle Generators on the Type-VIIA, VIIB, VIIC, VIIC41.
- - These bubbles start when you first dive and run until each Particle Generator has made 15000 bubbles. Takes approx 20 sec.
- - Because the Generator is Run Stop effect, I need a Effects Launcher Controller linked to Crash Dive.
- Finished Enabling Left/Right Sides Exhaust Particle Generators on the Type-VIIA, VIIB, VIIC, VIIC41.
- [WIP] Did some more work on Halo Lights
