<div class="IPBDescription">?</div> I changed me models to buzzcuts models with the laser thingy... and i couldnt hlep thinking if the same thing would be possible with the skulks eye...

The laser looks really glowing and nice and if someone modeled a skulk with a glowing eye?

now how cool wouldnt that look? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    It would look like a...hmm how to put it... a skulk that tried to bite a lightbulb but missed? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Too bad additive doesn't always draw full bright. It will be dark in dark places. I'd easilly hack something like this up, but until we get full bright additive rendering, laser effects and glow effects won't always draw full bright... :[

    Ohhh, I've always wanted a demonic glowing eye skulk (Either that or one with those cool sunglasses <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> ). Still, hack something up Lazer <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> It'd be cool 8)

    It would be pointless. If there is no fullbright glow, then it won't look any different ingame.

    Glowing things are possible with the new transparencies. You can find some models on CustomTFC that make use of the effect.

    EDIT: Bad thing is that it usually requires twice as many polys as the normal model, if you do a completely new layer of glow stuff.

    but dont u only need to make the eye glow then? so u dont have to make a whole new layer around the body

    If you made the eye glow fullbright, it WOULD be considered cheating, even though the suprise from it might actually be a disadvantage...

    Although what i was thinking is that if the eyes glow, will they be more visible when the thing is cloaked? imagine seeing a set of eyes running around. now that IS cheating.

    Glowing eyes?
    That would be an exploit. As you can see the glow in the dark.

    *smacks jezpuh*additive transparency wont show it in dark,only in places with light in it!
  • JezpuhJezpuh Join Date: 2003-04-03 Member: 15157Banned
    Hmm. In that case, go for it.

    Next time try and read what additive transparency does in HL and what masked does <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->. *gives jezpuh a cookie*.

    im not talking about some cheat glowing in dark..

    Im talking about to make a skulk model with some transparent red glow around his eyes... that would make him look more evil
    not that it will glow in dark..

    Yellow glow? After all, yellow-ish green blood is what courses through Kharaa Veins!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
