that is what i whant to know... i wish to reemplace the shockwave for a single weapon, and only for that weapon... a especial version of the Tsunami, it have own table files... i can do it? i wish to reemplace the standart shockwave for used by that weapong for the blue one found in this post.

This is the table...

yes, I forget the exact syntax though, look in the wiki.

that is unless u renamed my shockwave files...

Assuming you are using mediavps...

To get 2d shockwave:
$Shockwave model: none
$Shockwave name: <name of your 2d shockwave>

To get 3d shockwave:
$Shockwave model: <name of your 3d shockwave>

[TrashMan]

How many people actually like the new sockwave (the 3D one)?

I personally hate it since jsut a plain old one looked far better (who ever heard of an explosion following a spacific PLANE?) You would only see the edges (maby not even that) so the old 2D one where the exlosion looked like a circle (no matter from where you looke at it).

[ShivanSpS]

yeah, but you need to modified the .pof to make the 3D shockwave right?

Anyway, the 2D one is now working fine, thanks.

[Getter Robo G]

Fix the sphere I posted long ago and (grumble...) it looks 3d from any angle without a model...

Uh, you do realize that it's not always seen from the side, you can see it from many differrent angles when it goes up?

[TrashMan]

the point is that no matter from where you look at an explosiojn it will allways look like a perfect ring.

It won't be at any angle compared to you. You will allways see it flat. And that looks WAY better than the current one.


Wich reminds me.. I want to bring back the good old one... How do I go about it again? Ahh.. I think I reemember...
