how do i change the f8 camera fx to somthing else, like jeep fire?

You can't
(well atleast im pretty sure you can't)

[blaman]

why not? Im sure you could

[Dah Bomb]

Yea, you can, Fusilli did it. I asked him and his response was, "Magic." If you hit a brick with wrench and look in emitters, you will find camera, and that is the F8 fx.

[Daenth]

Possible, you need to find the F8 script and change the "emitter" and done. It wouldn't be good though to change to a "laggy" emitter if you have tons of Auto-Admins.

[Dah Bomb]

i suck at any scripting even if its easy. could you make it with jeep fire?

[Daenth]

Sure, let me find the script.
Sure you want Jeep Fire?

[Tom]

The script for f8 is probably complied, so you wont be able  to edit it. Bu ti think it could be done by renaming datablocks.

[Daenth]

I can't find it so yeah Tom. You need to change the camera particle probably, fasted, safest way.

[Dah Bomb]

ya, can you change camera to jeep fire? dont forget to make a backup if you do, ty for your help.

[Daenth]

K
I got to find the particle though, I am bored doing this 12 in the morning where I am playing games waiting my turn.

[Dah Bomb]

Ok, wait as long as you like ill still be happy when its done, G'night. :)

I'm pretty sure someone has made an fire for the f8 camera glow; try looking for it with the search function. I'm pretty sure its there.

[Daenth]

It isn't Camera Glow or F8, both do not exist.
EDIT: I found function:

function dropCameraAtPlayer(%val)
{
�  � if (%val)
�  �  �  commandToServer('dropCameraAtPlayer');
}

function dropPlayerAtCamera(%val)
{
�  � if (%val)
�  �  �  commandToServer('DropPlayerAtCamera');
}

moveMap.bind(keyboard, "F8", dropCameraAtPlayer);
moveMap.bind(keyboard, "F7", dropPlayerAtCamera);

I can't find what the particle path it is.

[Daenth]

Double toast but think this is it.
//particle_Player.cs

//particle emitters associated with the player
//the datablocks for these particles are part of the game, this file just changes them slightly to make them placeable with the wrench
