Author Topic: Waves  (Read 2951 times)

It's simple, really.  Every set amount of time, the water in the map will switch between two heights.  Essentially it will go up and down in a nutshell.  I think this would be really great for multi-level DMs, as the lowest level would be flooded with lava periodically.  Maybe make it so you can play a sound 1 second before the water rises/sinks so people will have time to escape and not die.

This seems like a nice idea, we have a flood mod so why couldn't we do this?

I would probably make a flood mod, but my only question is, can you make the water higher than what the slider allows? Considering all the mods only go as far as the slider does, Idk if it can go any higher.

Try to max it out and over somewhere in the console or code then.

Idk the codes... afk looking at a water mod for that.

To be honest, I am not looking for flooding.  So maybe just an additional slider for the second height?

I'd like to see the old water come back. Waves could be made really neat looking.

If I were able to get to it, I'd probably make an edit on it and include old water, if it were allowed, which I imagine it isn't. However, if you want to, I think you can still spawn the old water in via mission edit, if you can edit it to even open the damn thing. (which I've done) If I'm correct, wasn't there a value for the texture of water, and for the waves too?

Old Water?  From what version?

seems like it should smoothly slide up/down instead of instantly being at the two heights

Old Water?  From what version?
v20. The one before the shaders. It has the water. Also, I imagine the original water is in the game still, but encrypted somewhere, or just hidden.

The original water is the same one we have now. Just because he didn't put a slider for waves doesn't mean it's new water.

The old SS Dogfight that had the 4 carriers in the canyon thing, with that floating platform and hanger in the middle had this. The waves were rolling-- It was sick, and fun to swim/ row a boat in!

I do remember there were waves back before v21, but they were animated and not physically going up and down.
