New fire
« on: August 07, 2008, 12:54:04 AM »
The fake fire we have today on here wasn't bad for the late 90s but we need new ones the plane fires are fine but the ground fire just suck

I think we all know what your talking about, but I'm not sure it's really at the top of many people's lists.  I know a lot of people would rather see Combat Tour and have aircraft and vehicles remodeled before the ground fires.
I'm Sector95 in-game! :-D

Not the case with my comp. It's a custom built and can play FSX basically 3 times over at once and still have good frames etc.

Just because they decide to see how many people they can tick off in a day *cough*tachyon*cough* doesn't mean they aren't real...
It just means their kids with no life that don't see that WE are real, and they... well... aren't   :D
Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of life really are: You only
need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the
WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

No, it is not a frame rate killer at all.Basically it's just the same number of textures that have the same size as default textures.HTC could replace their fire and explosions and make them prettier (or more realistic, whatever you want, they could make them confetti if they wanted) without any theoretical or practical frame rate hit.It's just texture replacement.

Only problem i see with current AH fire effects, too big.

But hey, that's just me and my silly ideas...

would like HTC to take a look at those small touches a bit more.

Some of croduh's work would be a start.   :aok

Its not a frame rate killer. I used the effects on one of my beta maps before H2H shut down and I ceased work on it. The one time I managed to host a game for a friend and I we flew the terrain searching for bugs. Naturally we shot out some field items starting the flames. And just for the fun of it we brought in the lanc-stukas from an alt-drop annihilating the base. EVERYTHING was on fire, no frame rate loss from croduh's effects.

Great job Croduh. :aok
