Title: 2 New Ideas
Post by: scarface09 on August 30, 2008, 09:04:23 pm
These ideas could be put into the game

1. You know how the nades have that glow after you chuck it. What if the knife when you chuck it had a glow effect too, it would make it look way cooler.

2. Should be an option to change the colour of your interface (The little Triangle on top of your player).

These are very small changes and they may not be implemented into the game

Knife Idea: I like it f12

Interface Idea: you can just modify the picture f11

Knife would be good, but don't know if they'll bother doing it
You can mod the arrow by going to the file in your Soldat folder and editing it

1. f12
2. f11, you can already do that

Would someone care to explain the knife? 

it's just a knife with a bullet trail?  that would look like crap :/

1. F11 - would look gay.
2. Doesn't make sense. The interface is not the little triangle above your dude. And anyway, you can already change the triangle thing.

1. F12, It gives a more realistic view of the knife and adds just the extra bit of excitement.
2. F11, don't think it's necessary.

No, It's like a glow effect hes talking about, like the nade. It would look so much better!

And nades?

1.F12
2.you can already do that... even if you aren't registered i think...

f12 the knife trail, the interface thing is already possible. Go into Interface-gfx and look around there.
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: STM1993 on August 31, 2008, 08:43:39 pm
A knife trail? Well... that'd look... weird on the knife. But I'd say F12 for modding purposes.

The other one can already be done by modding.

I have no idea what you're talking about. What "glow"?
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: Platehead on September 01, 2008, 02:57:58 am
It's like.. a tad shiny
And I'm not sure if he means it, but maybe a bullet trail too
From what I think it's a shine around the edge
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: scarface09 on September 01, 2008, 03:04:21 am
Its sort of a bullet trail and a tag shinyness...they will know what to do.

What modding purposes? You can't change any of the trails :x

But f12 for the cosmetic improvement.
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: Platehead on September 01, 2008, 04:31:01 am
Yeah, improve the excitement of the knife
Then again, if hardcores see knife as a "silent" and "assassin-like" weapon (I personally have not seen one), then it'd put them off
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: EnEsCe on September 01, 2008, 08:10:15 am
I think a Knife trail would be cool, but only if thrown at maximum velocity... *goes to have a play*

I actually hated the fact that the knife is almost invisible on some maps, so I changed it so it has a red blade. Cant aim any better with it red tho LOL ;D.

Oh, and f11, I like the knife the way it is.

Heres what the trails *would* look like....  (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqp674APni8)

omg! hacker video! the trail should be longer.
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas

Its not a hack, I was standing on top of 20 Knives since I modded the MP5 to shoot knives.

I thought you just launched with a deug modded knife... but that works as well :D
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: scarface09 on September 02, 2008, 05:42:03 am
trail needs to be longer and shinier
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: STM1993 on September 02, 2008, 07:48:56 am
Yucks... that's real ugly (no offense). Even with a shinier and longer or even a slimmer trail it still won't look nice, because the speed of the knife is too low and when the knife flies, it is spinning. The trail effect would only look nice if the knife was flying straight and directly forward like a Barrett shot. Now it looks like gray grenades.

I'd still F12 for modding, but I'm against it as an actual graphic for the knife.

f12 for the knife
f11 for the interface
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: The Epic Guy on September 05, 2008, 06:39:35 pm
Heres an idea. How about making bullet trails moddable in weapons.ini?
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: Platehead on September 05, 2008, 08:19:07 pm
Ewww knife looks bad... sorry
Yeah STM1993 is right, due to the fact that the knife is spinning, the trail wouldn't work well
How about just making it shiny? No bullet trails?
Title: Re: 2 New Ideas
Post by: mxyzptlk on September 05, 2008, 08:26:41 pm
When it's thrown, it flies straight. It only starts spinning when it hits something.

Actually its the exact opposite of what you said.

Post by: UnknownSniper on September 05, 2008, 08:32:54 pm
You mean, the knife, with it's realistic powers, spins, hit's the gravitational force of somebody's gostek and stops in mid air, inches from touching them, and falls on the ground.

No, I mean you throw it, it spins, it hits something, and it stops.

Knife really sounds nice, but the interface one, is it really that important? I mean, you look at your guy instead of the triangle when you play, right?
