[Map] The Big Blue

[DaJ4ck3L]

it's good as is if that's the case. though a sky with a big blue pit of death would be epic too. makes sense with the map name.

and to answer, untested (im no mapper), but maybe you could change this in the mis file.

skyColor = "0 0 0";
(red/green/blue)

adding numbers to the 3rd section which is blue i think.

Oh, I thought the blue was a background color (what you see under the horizon/terrain), and the sky was a bmp on top.

I dunno, man... I never mess with that stuff... Didn't even realize it was server side.

if you use a sky use lushday_clear.dml

[DaJ4ck3L]

try sky color (0 200 200) and see if that does anything.

im not sure how are you supposed to color skies while making map, but clientside edits work this way:

- UPPER GAP of the sky is controlled by changing TOP-LEFT pixel of the 1st sky texture
- FOG is controlled by changing BOTTOM-LEFT pixel of the 1st sky texture
- LOWER HALF of the sky is controlled by changing BOTTOM-RIGHT pixel of the 1st sky texture

and as far as i understood you, you changed sky texture to blue in your config & took screenshots. i might be wrong, but you can either have 1 color sky (like sh, canyoncrusade) or call textures from clientsided config (which will display texture the user is having in his own config) & if u do the later i doubt you can have your own colors because you can't edit players textures in his own config.
but that ofc is just my limited speculation so i might be wrong

Thanks for clearing that up, D4M45T3R, I thought he made it look like that in the mission editor.

All I did was place this code at the bottom of the .mis file.

Code: Select all

%Sky = newObject("Sky",Sky,0,0.5,0.9);// Day
$cursky = %sky;
addToSet("MissionCleanup",%Sky);

It's 100% serverside.

PS: If you want to give people a seizure you can set the sky to cycle through every color of the rainbow reaaally quick. (i may or may not be working on this)
PPS: The sky shall stay this color because fuck you that's why.

yea lestat has some cool stuff in his mod that lets you change it in the tab menu. using the same method pretty much, with some extra stuff.

Code: Select all

		Client::buildMenu(%client, "Weather Options", "weather", true);
		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Change Sky", "changesky");
		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Change Sky Color", "changeskycolor");
		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Change Weather", "changeweather");
		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Change Lights", "changesky");

		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Quick Flash", "changesky");
		Client::addMenuItem(%client, %i++ @ "Flash Forever: "@$Weather::Flashing, "changesky");

im surprised the skycolor thing didn't work. might work if you have the sky image set to blank. idk.

and no need to get hostel. we all cool here.

Did you want to version in the original post added so we can test it or are we waiting for more updates?
