weather problem

[justus916]

I added some snow to my map and it works good the only thing is I see snow in front of me but when I turn around I don't see any snow why is this? Does it come from one place like n to s or e to w? Or does it have to do with where I put the actor?

You're using the xWeatherEffect actor, right? If so, make sure you have a negative value under xWeatherEffect Properties > xWeatherEffect > Position. You can also load up a TW map with weather and check their properties against yours.

Ok I'll check Thanks!

In the xweather>position I have a list of min and max all of the max are positive and all of the min are negative should they all be neg? Also how come I see snow in buildings with roofs? TY

Yes, max values should be positive, and min values should be negative. Positive x = front of player and Negative x = behind player, or vice versa depending which direction you are facing.

You need to place Volumes over your enterable structures. You will need to use the Exclusion Properties under the Events tab of the Volume actor. RO-Hedgehog has Volumes over the buildings that exclude the rain from falling through the roof. You should check out how Tripwire set those up. Also, read more here:

That's what I was thinking Thanks Shurek!

How would you go about getting wind in your map like Kurland Kessel that you can actually see? Maybe Physics Volume?

Try emitters

yep emitters

yep emitters

i think Kurland has a few large emitters down one side heading across map, very effective
so if all your emitters "blow" in same direction with ssame velocity your wind looks great
