Eternity Changes by Daniel "Nisse" Nilsson

What fog are you using? Some fogs have lights emitting from them, that can cause strange shadows and spots.

[Daniel Nilsson]

It's hellfog (Quake 3 stock) and yes it's emitting light, will see if I find a similar fog that doesn't.

[Hipshot]

The regular hellfog does not emit light, however, the hellfogdense does. You can just edit the shader if you want though.

[Daniel Nilsson]

Ok, I have been avoiding adding/ editing  my own textures and shaders but I'll guess it's time to jump into that now. Will read up on how to organize and add the content so it gets packaged the right way later. 

 

Quick-update: that went faster and better then suspected... I found that if I increased the surface light a bit the the spots went a way... Also addad a q3map_lightRGB so I could color the otherwise bright white light a bit.

About the spots...there could be a light buried somewhere in that brush. I've had that error, but it has been a long time and I can't quite remember the cause.

Also...if you edit the shader, make sure you copy the shader into your own shader file or you run the risk of ruining other shaders in the game.

I think I added it right, made a .shader file in the 'scripts' folder and wrote it into the shaderlist.txt

[phantazm11]

Yes, that is perfect

[Daniel Nilsson]

Oh shit what the hell am I still doing up at this hour!? Messing around with light and build settings will do that to you... Any way, here's some screens:

Last time I saw this there was now lights and no textures, quite a big change! Nice job, looking forward to play it!

[Flipout]

That's looking real good! especially the last shot.

Looks like it is going somewhere. It's a pity I can't comment as much as I would like to

 

Edit: This does obviously apply to all other entries as well.

Hey, that looks really cool, nice =)

Make sure you weapclip the floor on the last shot, so rockets and grenades won't get stuck on all the small things sticking out.

Not only do you need to copy it into your own shaderfile, make sure you rename it, just moving the shader won't work.

 

If the shader was named sfx/hellfog2000 make sure it's named like daniel/hellfog2000

[Daniel Nilsson]

Yeah did just forgot to write it. But thanks for looking out for my errors!

[Daniel Nilsson]

Have worked a bit on the main outside area. will add some more details and work on light. But an alpha is on it's way will probably upload it within 24 hours.
