I will second the lightning being borked by this mod.

Its just flashes big white rectangles for every strike. Maybe someone knows how to fix that.

Check the particles.dat file for the particle generator that makes the lightning. Get the Id from the 'material=' and check that against the materials.dat file. You'll most likely find it doesn't exist in materials.dat thus big white boxes. You need to get the correct ID from materials.dat and place it into the particles.dat for the lightning.

Does anyone know if the hollywood effect has been removed by this version of zones.cfg?

Thanks.

Thanks.

If your talking about the bodies flying and large explosions..nope...they are still there.

And I will agree the lightning thing is crazy annoying.

But i think with a few treaks here and there this would rank up highly as far as an eye candy mod would go.

I looked and there is no embedded image so there should have been a .tga in the tex normal folder, but there is not.

I believe if I fool around with it tomorrow after some sleep I will be able to put some lightning tga's in and will give it a go

Slllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeepy!

I'm also have troubles with this damned mod. Why i'm always going into
trouble with installing any piece of s...? For what bloody hell i'm downloading this mod?
I have white rectangles over my port lighthouses, i have no my lovely textures on dock walls and surface. People in the port are half placed in the ground!!! Lighthouses are ugly and nasty - where are the beloved ones from Flakmonkey mod?
Interesting effects - good topic - VERDAMMT!
What to do now? Reinstalling whole game?
Help

There are parts that I like but some areas need more work:

The speed the wind is blowing the smoke on a calm day is a not right & the flag is blowing the opisite direction, also this effect persists even after ship is sunk:

I don't think this mod is GWX compatable, certainly some further editing is needed!

Definitely has potential though!

You got fine blue water! Are you start game by SH3 Commander?
And you are on mediterranum mare?

Reece · 09-02-07, 11:19 PM

Yes I'm in the med! Funny that what ever your playing in campaign mode is reflected in the academy & single missions as well! And I am using SH3 Commander!
