Work around depth charges

[Kendras]

Hi,

My mod is ready to test. I have added some halo and light effects underwater when the depth charges are exploding ! See the pic.

Now, I also would like to add a blur effect in the submarine when a DC is exploding near the submarine. Is thta possible ?. :06:

I can see the advantage of this if depth charge shake is also employed but either way would be nice. Blurred effect exists somewhere in camera.dat think of what happens on deck when the u-boat takes a hit,

Should be possible!

There is already a mod called Depth Charge Shake which make the cam heavily shaking.

Yes, I agree with you, the colors are a bit flashy ! Do you prefer this ?

Hi ! No, it's not a bug. I've added light for the underwater explosion effect. The same effect is used for all kind of underwater explosions. And it's not possible to have light only underwater, you have it also above.

But I fought Could it be possible to make fire light up the ship? Lighting effect would be aweosme

Yes, that was my first idea, I will work on this soon. :salute:

[Kendras]

Mod with light effect for the fire is ready, it also contains the depth charge explosion new effect.

Enjoy!

At the request of kyle9154 (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/member.php?u=284038),

Here is a quick fix which adds my fire light effect to the Rbs1_SH4_Effects_GWX_30_71 mod. I didn't add my depth charge explosion effect, as I don't like it enough.

Please try it in game, and report if any problems.

There are 3 folders inside. One for the basic mod, and 2 for 2 optional mods. If you install the Fire light fix for Rbs10-enhancedoilexplosion, first install Fire light fix for Rbs1_SH4_Effects_GWX_30_71 or Fire light fix for Rbs5-EffectsLITE.

yeah I don't use those optionals just rubini's base sh4 effects so don't need them

I have no idea how an actual DC explosion would look like, but from the following video we can make ourselves an idea of what an underwater explosion seen with the naked eye looks like, compared to what can be seen at slow motion:

https://youtu.be/E5rGFZWQfzk?t=49s

The slow motion reveals an expansion phase followed by a compression phase, both accompanied by a "ball of fire"; the sequence ends with a second, smaller, expansion. Everything happens way too quickly for the human eye to register the full sequence though. At least for the type of explosion show in the video, all you can see at normal speed is a cloud of bubbles popping out from the center of the explosion and then disappearing :hmm2:

Hi Kendras,

would you mind telling me how you did the fire light effect? I would like to add it to my personal files because it's a great work!

Best, LGN1

1. In particles.dat, find the nodes #Fire_big and #Fire_small : for each there is a new child node called "light" which contains a ParticleGenerator controller and a WaterInteraction controller.

- the ParticleGenerator controller will create a light effect with a light node contained in Materials.dat

- the WaterInteraction controller is necessary to stop the light as soon as the fire is underwater.


2. In Materials.dat, find the light node called "Light - fire" : this is the "object" used as a particle by the ParticleGenerator in particles.dat


That's all !

Hi Kendras,

Is the problem mentioned in this post still occuring in Rbs1_SH4_Effects_GWX_30_71 ?

[LGN1]

Yes, somehow the additional DC particle generator modifies/influences the other particle generators :hmmm:

[Kendras]

Try to set NoDeleteChildren as 'False' instead of 'True' in FastParticleGenerator of Smoke Big (child node of Fire Big node).

[Niume]

Deleting CHILDREN?? WAR CRIMES!! :D

I really want to work again on the depth charge effect, since you posted this video Gap !
