quick and easy weather fix
« on: December 02, 2007, 12:30:05 AM »
while this is not neccessarilly optimal...i have to say, it is quite nice to fly in.
load a map with clouds already on it...change the visibility and colors to shades of gray and voila!  yucky weather!

would love to see these settings implemented in one of the mains or in a scenario sometime.  :)

your fire looks better than mine.  Although, fire (and tracers sometimes) really kills my frame rates.

Good fire.

yep.  good fire.  

i was most surprized by that result.  

wasn't on purpose...just happened when i changed the environment.

darker sky and light = better fire.  (i think)

:aok

Yea I just noticed it this morning that I wasn't saving it.  What color numbers are you using for your sky?
