Well i thought that it would be nice if the weather effects were behind everything, even scenery that is in the background. Becuase, say you make a map, and it's snowing or raining or whatever, it rains inside the building. It looks kinda wierd.

Only a minor change that will make the inside of buidings look better. I'll post a screen show too show you what it looks like.

but how the hell did you manage to get rain on the bottom floor, not the top?

I don't know, just something to do with the rain spawning and me pressing printscreen i guess

Seems like a valid enough suggestion. Frankly this should've been fixed some time ago. i'm gonna go ahead and support this. "F12", as your earthly peops say.

This is well understood. How can it rain inside a building?

the rain effect is just a BMP moving around, like snow/dust.

but yeah it'd be nice. but would it need a mapcode change?

Instead of that, have the rain collide with the ground, so then it wont be able to go inside the buildings.

and we would see it splash on the roof :p

f12, though i support Xxypher suggestion a bit better, because for example in bushes scenery the rain would just go behind it, which is kinda lame imo

Xxypher · « **Reply #13 on:** October 03, 2008, 11:30:30 am »

Rain should have a random depth, which I know is an easy thing to do in C++.
But yeah, support me.
But the random depth would work good for making the game a little better, so all the rain doesn't just land infront of the scenery.

I have to agree.

It was always bothering me that when I was in a building or anywhere inside of something it was snowin'/rainin'.

homerofgods · « **Reply #15 on:** October 03, 2008, 11:54:42 am »

but, if you have a maps with polys around it., how would the rain get in the map? it would have to be an open map.

Sir Jeremy · « **Reply #16 on:** October 03, 2008, 12:58:25 pm »

Sure, good Idea, I'm gonna go with F12 too.

The splash on the roof sounds mad...add effects to sound splashes and make it look cool!

I have seen this topic a few times, generally is put into the "Good idea but they have better things to do bin" F12.

Blue-ninja · « **Reply #19 on:** October 03, 2008, 06:54:21 pm »

This has been suggested before....BY ME. xD

Only though, I suggested it in Polyworks that the scenery go in front of weather effect option be added.

Unfortunately, it seems that the weather effects is a part of the soldat game, not Polyworks.

Still....F12
