The first and last green and red buoys are flashing, not the others.

It's not normal.

No problem, just give me credits. Did you try my mission ? Some light effects are bugging because I think there are too many buoys (but when you go to the last point of the mission, you should see 4 different buoys with the right effects working just fine).

If you succeed to repair the bug effects, I will be glad to know how you did !

Hi Kendras

New install and just tested again.

First buoy worked fine - seen to be flashing well behind me. The channel buoys (red and green) behaved as you said.

The buoys that were meant to be flashing 6 short and one long seemed to be flashing 4 short - 2 short - 1 long?

Apart from that all seemed fine even after time compression. What bugs do you see?

Regards

- halo and light effects are no more syncronised after TC

- there is a global light bug (with lights of all kinds : yellow, rose, red, green ...) on all the environment (trees and ships, everywhere, as if there was thunder) if there are too many buoys with a light node (when I saw this, there were 10 buoys of that kind), that's why I've added the light effect as optional ...

Now, I have reworked the halo effect a bit for the danger buoys (less brief flashes). Also added a bigger halo for the flashing green and red buoys. Will probably post the link for version 2 soon.

No, I didn't, and I didn't get time to look into your particle generators either. I has been a long time since I dealed with them the last time, but I remember that their many parameters can be quite confusing and, sure enough, they can be FPS eaters, especially when many effects are to be played at the same time. It is possible that reducing the number of light particles generated per unit of time, their life duration and their maximum number (all of these parameters are strictly related), might render them more fluid.

Sure, I will keep you updated on any progress I might be doing, but at the time being I am mostly focusing on some new 3D models and textures
