how to make screen shake?

[Titanium Man]

How do you make the screen shake when you fire a projectile?

And also, could someone explain to me how projectile spread works and how to use it?

I am not sure about the screen shaking.

To spread projectiles, lets look at the TF2 Minigun...

Code: [Select]

function TF2MinigunImage::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{

%projectile = TF2MinigunProjectile;
%spread = 0.04;
%shellcount = 1;

for(%shell=0; %shell<%shellcount; %shell++)
{
%vector = %obj.getMuzzleVector(%slot);
%objectVelocity = %obj.getVelocity();
%vector1 = VectorScale(%vector, %projectile.muzzleVelocity);
%vector2 = VectorScale(%objectVelocity, %projectile.velInheritFactor);
%velocity = VectorAdd(%vector1,%vector2);
%x = (getRandom() - 0.5) * 0.8 * 3.1415926 * %spread;
%y = (getRandom() - 0.5) * 0.8 * 3.1415926 * %spread;
%z = (getRandom() - 0.5) * 0.8 * 3.1415926 * %spread;
%mat = MatrixCreateFromEuler(%x @ " " @ %y @ " " @ %z);
%velocity = MatrixMulVector(%mat, %velocity);

%p = new (%this.projectileType)()
{
dataBlock = %projectile;
initialVelocity = %velocity;
initialPosition = %obj.getMuzzlePoint(%slot);
sourceObject = %obj;
sourceSlot = %slot;
client = %obj.client;
};
MissionCleanup.add(%p);
}
return %p;
}

These would be your main thing to spread them:

   %projectile = NamedProjectile;
   %spread = HowShouldItSpreadOut;
   %shellcount = 1; //Keep this the way it is unless you want more than one shell

How do you make the screen shake when you fire a projectile?

Spawn an explosion.

[Honorabl3]

Code for rocket launcher, pay attention to what's in bold..

datablock ExplosionData(rocketExplosion)
{
   //explosionShape = "";
   explosionShape = "./explosionSphere1.dts";
   soundProfile = rocketExplodeSound;

   lifeTimeMS = 350;

   particleEmitter = rocketExplosionEmitter;
   particleDensity = 10;
   particleRadius = 0.2;

   emitter[0] = rocketExplosionRingEmitter;

   faceViewer     = true;
   explosionScale = "1 1 1";

   shakeCamera = true;
   camShakeFreq = "10.0 11.0 10.0";
   camShakeAmp = "3.0 10.0 3.0";
   camShakeDuration = 0.5;
   camShakeRadius = 20.0;

   // Dynamic light
   lightStartRadius = 10;
   lightEndRadius = 25;
   lightStartColor = "1 1 1 1";
   lightEndColor = "0 0 0 1";

   damageRadius = 3;
   radiusDamage = 100;

   impulseRadius = 6;
   impulseForce = 4000;
};

-snip-

This is kinda right, but you need to make a separate explosion that is invisible and shakes the players camera, then you need to spawn it in the players face when he fires

spawn it in the players face when he fires

How?

[Aide33]

How?

Package onFire and add %player.spawnexplosion(explosion)
