African warlords have more physical based rendering and detail from displacement?

Who knew..

Just ignore Bryan See. We're not even sure it's actually a human being. It ignored Turing Test questions posed to it in another thread and also one of the most well known questions of the Voight-Kampf assessment from Blade Runner as well.

To be fair, as far as I know he's the only one who actually read my older Science posts on this forum. . .  Assuming anyone did. . .

It was bumped up from 250 to 500. I am well past 250.

Re: Star Fox: Event Horizon for FSO
Sort of a random question, I seem to recall with one of the more recent releases (I think it was 3.7.4) that some new image format could be used for the talking portraits in freespace. Looking back I can't seem to find any evidence or documentation. Am I misremembering or is there some documentation floating around on that new image format?

This might be a silly reply but are you asking about animated pngs? (ie apng files?)

There's some documentation here: http://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/Multimedia_Files#APNG

Let me know if anything in it isn't clear.

I got it to work, sure is a lot better than having thousands of dds files floating around in the mod.  :lol:

I have another question, is there a way to make the dialog text in the top right larger? I've received a few complaints that the text is too small and hard to see when explosion effects are going on. I know voice overs kind of solve that problem but naturally I don't really have any voice actors.

Re: Star Fox: Event Horizon for FSO

Axem's Scripted Message gauge works pretty well for that in many regards. It adds a transparent black background to the messages and types them out.

 
Also, mv_root-hdg is the name of the HUD.tbm in case you did not know.  (while the HUD table is just called HUD.tbl)

The $ScaleGauges setting can help here too, it will make ALL HUD components relatively larger on most resolutions. Unless you are using a lot of custom HUD stuff this is usually a good idea to at least try.


keep in mind, setting $ScaleGauges to "yes" does not effect the Scripted Message mod's custom gauge, so if you want to make Axem's gauge bigger as well, you will have to mess with the Fonts.tbl.

Be warned, messing with Fonts.tbl is a last resort only those on weird 3 or 4 K Res screens would want, and that's only if you have the Scripted Message mod and $ScaleGauges enabled. $ScaleGauges should remove that need anyway.
If you do this, you will want to resize the image "messagebox.png" Axem's mod comes with, As the script is programed to contain text within the image's area.

Hope this helps!



EDIT: you can also use the .CFG  ScriptedMessage comes with and move it to any part of the screen!

Re: Star Fox: Event Horizon for FSO
A question I've had for awhile but have kept forgetting to ask, is there any way to set up some kind of "bounding box" or boundary to a level? For example if you go too far from the center of a level the game automatically flips your ship back to the other direction?

 
Re: Star Fox: Event Horizon for FSO
Code: [Select]
$Formula: ( when
   ( >
      ( distance "Alpha 1" "Center" )
      10000
   )
   ( set-object-facing-object
      "Alpha 1"
      "Center"
      1000
   )
)
+Name: Face Center
+Repeat Count: -1
+Trigger Count: 100000
+Interval: 0

For some reason "+Repeat Count:" is -1 while in FRED it's still 1.
