Weapon Effects Question
« on: November 1, 2002 08:18 am CST »
Is it possible to have weapons cast a spell while you are attacking? And can it also have little particle effects on it while you are wearing it?

I'm sure it is possible, but you aren't likely to have good effects in Tribes.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

hey now particle, thats offensive to me.  not good effects in tribes . . learn to code the effects first particle, then say they aren't that good.

eViL, you were probably the coolest but most misunderstood person in this community.. maybe the rest will find out how cool of a person you are some day, and don't get too mad at the people who dont understand you.. its their loss in the end.

There aren't particle effects/cool lighting abilities.  That's what I meant.

/me laughs at eViL's assumption

actually, there are some pretty cool particle effects i've seen...in the starsiegecraft mod (i think), one of the weapons can change into either a grenade-type of the missile-type. It would make a cool effect for a fire of something like that.

I downloaded that mod some time ago, never used it.  Anyway, how about a cool affect for Admins lvl 3,4, and 5 to have particle affects streaming behind them as they move?

Nate's lightning code is very nice...

I used to use it for another mod..

You can find it in Havoc, but good luck getting past the encoding..
