"WaterSurfaceTransition" Controler

a-kermit · 02-04-21, 04:52 AM

Moin, moin ...

Question for the pros.
I would like to use the "WaterSurfaceTransition" controller.
How should an example link look like ? (Node) What)
I have not been able to create a working one yet.

Hi Kermit,
Open one of mine in Submarine/NSS_UBoatxx/NSS_UBoatxx.dat/water splash nodes
In create effect, copy/paste the ID numbers in the tool/search, and you will find what is needed in Particules.dat or Materials.dat

Thanks for the answer, but there is only the normal "WaterInteraction" controller, not the one I meant ...
... I know the "WaterInteraction" controller very well.

WaterSurfaceTransition is an SH4 controller.
It is NOT in SH3. Never has been and will not work in SH3.

Moin, moin...
Thank you for the honest answer ...
... that explains a lot ...
... then this is a small bug in S3D, because there it is displayed / offered for SH3.
... thank you again, then I do not need to invest more time there .
... with best regards ... Kermit

Actually not a BUG of S3D.
One needs to know what controllers work in which version of SH.
S3D was written for SH4 and SH3 support was a kind of extra feature.
Being SOME controllers were carried over to SH4.

S3D works with SH5 IF you have the files modified by me and others so a very good Tool!

But one needs to KNOW what controller works in what version.

What are you trying to do?

You could also use Rosomaha's Silent3Ditor Configurator (S3D-CFG) to sort the controllers to only show SH3, 4 or 5...

Good point!
Your hat covers in nicely!

@ Jeef-Groves

... could you use the SH-3 "EffectChoices" controller as an alternative to let certain processes run when the 3D object is out of / in the water ?
