Arcalane 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2007 Not sure if anyone noticed this in the Amphibious APCs thread, but I also need a hand with making some water displacement effects for when the APCs are travelling through the water and are amphibious. Ideally what I want is effects like so; Imagine the object on the left is the Groundhog, and the object on the right is the Romanov. The blue lines are the kind of water effect I want here. Displacement lines and whatnot. (I made that image in about 30 seconds using MS Paint. I don't care if it looks crap, it gets the general gist of the idea across, no? ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mschoeldgen[Xww2] 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2007 Gee, does BF2142 have ANY boats in the game ? if that is the case , you could use the e_wake effect as its done in the other boat. If there's no wake effect in the whole game, you should create one, using the one from BF2 as a template. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arcalane 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2007 Sadly not. The only wake effects I can find are those used in the infantry when they're swimming. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, not bad Clone that effect, rename it and blow up scale and sizes . When you plan to have more water vehicles in the mod , you'll need that effect anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mach10 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2007 The effect you are looking for is: e_amphib_wake Add two of these to your object. -set one at the front end of your PCO with no rotaional data -set one at the back end of your PCO with a -180/0/0 rotation This will add the effect of a wake when moving forwards or in reverse. This will not add a wake effect in your second picture, only the first one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mschoeldgen[Xww2] 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 Well, the original author of his thread claimed that there is no wake effect in BF2142, as there are no boats in this game. So i encouraged him to clone the 'e_soldier_swim' wake effect and blow that up to create a replacement for the BF2 'e_amphib_wake' effect Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
