The cows have blood wound decals, y cant soldiers?

[Kalashnikov Slamdunk]

if the cow can have decals, then y cant character have decals on them? u could use the exact same ones, it would be perfect.
(also how do i make decals last for longer then a second? i have decal time set to high, i wonder what low would mean )


and i played a mod for ut2003 a million years ago that had paintball guns. guns would leave paint marks on characters.
so that means my idea isnt so impossible.

I think the ut2.5 engine has a setting called "minfps" which, if your fps drop below the predetermined amount, every unnecessary effect on the screen dissapears, such as decals, blood sprays, etc.

It's such a shame because I never see the blood splats on the ground or whatever, only once every few maps.

My fps suck I guess.

I believe it's because the cows are static props that are part of the environment while the character models are not.

 

[Kalashnikov Slamdunk]

yes but i am sure if the paintball mod did decals on characters, then so can every other mod.

Last night on Odessa I saw a very cool effect. An ally was standing in front of me and get shot in the leg. He survived, but blood was spurting out his leg for the next 10-15 seconds (it was a particle effect, not a decal). First and only time I've seen that (guess you don't witness other ppl surviving bullets too often).

i witnessed that before, but imagine how awesome it would be for your gore loving self to see a wound there where the blood squirts from. then everything would be perfect!!

(ps y do my decals stay for only a second, its gay )

Wow I didn't know decal stay could have sexual orientation! *shock*

Just kidding

i saw a decal hitting on another decal, they were getting very close and stuff, and were inside each other. it was gross.
cudnt make sure tho, because they lasted only a second. i want em to last longer.

I find it quite entertaining to run by a horse/cow on that map and see 3 to 4 players shooting it while they cap the objective.

Sadly, that is all I really have to add to this thread.

Thats happened to me, except I was the guy who got shot. I was laying down and a stray bullet hit my leg, and as I crawled away, I left a trail of blood drops.

I was able to track a wounded player by bloodtrail and finish him off in his hiding spot. Granted the bloodtrail didn't go on for a 100 meters, but it was still freaking awesome and I would not have found him otherwise.

The reason for this is that cows are static and players are dynamic. The models have 2 completely different properties in this regard.

ya but common, im sure it is possible.
anyone else think it is?
if a noobish paintball mod made decals on characters, then the RO team for sure can.

Hi KAbex!! (and All) yes, that is TRUE. But you CAN fix it how? well just do this...

open redorchestra.ini and search for MinDesiredFrameRate. the original is at "35" set this to a low number = 1
(do it in all the entries that you find...)

When you do that at redorchestra.ini the things change...

Of course I have FULL GORE and Decals in High at options menu.

All the ones with "blood troubles" try that tip right now...
sure the engine was removing those effects when the FPS
in my humble PC was going lower than "35", now I see a LOT MORE of BLOOD !! you can also

 

[82ndfrag]

Thanks man, now I know why I havent been in awe all the time
when seeing people get shot in the face xD

And yes, adding bullet decals on the player models would make
the game so much better, and even more realistic...

I was also thinkin about posting a thread about this after
shooting some cows after getting bored lol ; ]

Answer to original poster: Because cows are so much better than you.

 

[DONT_SHOOT]

to try an answer one of the original posters questions.
i think in the ini file there is a setting for the time that decals stay visible.
i dont know the exact line, you'll just have to dig for it.


p.s. very clever post about the decal sex lol.

 

[TheGunslinger]

This feature is fairly easy to do with the ut engine

hopefully the devs will add it in the patch.



(looks at devs anxiously)
