[REL] SH4 effects (and more) for SH3 - Page 3

slow_n_ez · 10-28-07, 10:38 PM

As d@rk51d3 mentions.. the ships I noticed that shot the flares were still at level ... no pitch to the stern or bow.... It might have been they tried to shoot a flare in the middle of an explosion and the consussion of it threw the flare off course and made it go sideways instead ... there were lots of after explosions which are GREAT

The planes were about 100 meters above the water when they shot theirs .... and pretty close to my boat when they went down ......

I've fixed the flare problem of shooting into the water. I needed to add a specific controller to compensate for the possibility of the source not being perfectly level and upright.
I'm still working on the planes firing flares. I think I have a solution.
While fixing this flare problem I noticed that it didn't have a red reflection on the water. That has been fixed also.

Took me a while to figure out where the gunshot sounds were coming from........ until I saw the trail of debris following one ship.

Magnificent work, RB

Thanks a lot!

A minor revision has been made to the SH4 effects (and more) for SH3. This minor revision release fixes the following bugs:

- 'paratroopers' when an airplanes explodes under a certain height
- red flares firing into the water

this minor revision also adds the following:

- red reflection of the flare on the water. The water will light up red under the flare now.

this minor revision (v2.021) is available here:

I only hope my computing power will be enough :hmm:

Hi guys, does any of you feel like doing a small youtube video of some of these new effects? I won't be able to play SH 3 for next 3-4 weeks.

I can't wait to see Racerboy's work in motion.

I don't think the screenshots justify his work well enough. Thanks.

Myxale · 10-29-07, 05:14 AM

OMG!

You just made the Atlantic War most dirty!

Anyone try the Bismark massacre! Effects galore!?

Kudos to you and your staff for this great mod RB!

Will keep you posted about any bugs and problems!

Yes, that´s really great but the fps is fast going down by explosions.

Hitman · 10-29-07, 06:47 AM

Long awaited and much appreciated

Take a rest now to enjoy your own work, it's splendid
