Yeah I also don't see what's up with this scripted light business... looks horrible... if it wasn't blurry I'd like it.

And Battery, you seem to be clogging up the picture section with 'ideas' more than pictures... slow down on the idea front and actually get something done.

And the one that people seem to like the most.

If anyone has any requests, IM me.

I have a request. Lower the blur just a tad...or a lot.

If they were a little less blurred they'd be pretty cool.

Request, try it with campagin.

and for the hell of it I wonder how SP_shared would look with it.

Also for that last pic, take away the stationary shield. The little bar totally messes up the whole pic.

Hawaiian Modder · Post by **Hawaiian Modder** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 3:07 pm

I would lower the blur, but idk how. I didn't make the script.

Edit: Nevermind, I'll get some updated pics.

I finally got around to playing w/ the scripted lighting stuff, and man, wow, Shocked Nice Job guys!

maybe TUT for this???

i like to see how it looks on my bloody turf

Heres A 5 Minute tut.

If your working on a map that has scripts in it already and you don't need one of the scripts then use the tut.

Step 1: Open your map in SoL's Script Tools.
Step 2: Find the script you want to overwrite.
Step 3: Double click it.
Step 4: Copy and paste my code into the textbox then hit compile. Your should get no errors.

Here's the code for my script.

Code: Select all

(script startup lighting 
  (begin 
   (cinematic_start) 
   (cinematic_screen_effect_start True) 
   (cinematic_lighting_set_primary_light 120 248 0.343087 0.302234 0.270588) 
   (cinematic_lighting_set_secondary_light 120 50 0.0784314 0.0745098 0.0901961) 
   (cinematic_lighting_set_ambient_light 0.0807903 0.0608304 0.0509804) 
   (object_uses_cinematic_lighting player0 True) 
   (object_uses_cinematic_lighting player1 True) 
   (object_uses_cinematic_lighting player2 True) 
   (object_uses_cinematic_lighting player3 True) 
   (rasterizer_bloom_override True) 
   (rasterizer_bloom_override_threshold 0.1) 
   (rasterizer_bloom_override_brightness 0.6)
  )
)

That will make it work on startup.
You can mess with the flout on the end of the last two lines.

Now on startup your map will have it on. You don't need yelo to work this.

I agree... These are all cool, but the blur kills it alot. And it hurts my eyes(your pictures(Hawaiian Modder) ).

Fun With BSP's

And no that is not nulling shaders... I editted something so it only loads some meshes when stepping on them.

GametagAeonFlux · Post by **GametagAeonFlux** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:07 pm

hah, neat. Good find.

Dojorkan · Post by **Dojorkan** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:32 pm

Hawaiin modder, do you delete the script that was were you double clicked? OR can you just add the one you posted on the line under it?

ScottyGEE · Post by **ScottyGEE** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:37 pm

Detox, I fall off the edge enough on lockout...Don't make it more

Well at least look like I could...I'd stick to one corner with a shotgun...("Its a legitimate strategy!")

Hawaiian Modder · Post by **Hawaiian Modder** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:44 pm

For the script, Just delete all the text in the textbox then compile it. You could also just right click>recompile>PlainText.

Lol =p. Or we can model some meshes and all... And skin them, and remake DDR so it lights up when you step on it!

Hawaiian Modder · Post by **Hawaiian Modder** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 5:36 pm

Well I did some tests and messed with the values and I got a few outcomes. Tell me what you think.

Original(One shown above):

Treshold .1, Brightness .5

Treshold .2, Brightness .5

Treshold .2, Brightness .6

Treshold .3, Brightness .5

I think that .3, .5 is the best. It has least amount of blur and more drastic colors.
